Scientific basis
5 Day Fast
A safe starting point
If you're getting started with your health, you want to know what a program is based on. Without a proper foundation, you're just experimenting, and we don't want that.
That's why 5 Day Fast builds on the research into fasting mimicking by Prof Valter Longo. He's been researching the effects of fasting for over 30 years and has published on the topic in leading scientific journals.
Based on the principles from that research, we've developed our own 5-day program: with fresh, organic food, a set menu for five days, and guidance from start to finish.
Unsure if 5 Day Fast is right for you, for example due to pregnancy, medication use or a medical condition? Please consult your doctor first.
