Can you exercise while fasting?

Many assume fasting means rest. Our data say otherwise.
In the GENESIS study conducted at Buchinger, patients remained physically active during 12 days of medically supervised fasting: walking daily, doing light fitness training, and mobility work.

The result?

Muscle function was preserved. Physical fitness even improved.
Measured, not assumed.

Exercise during fasting isn’t a contradiction. It’s part of the therapeutic strategy.
The GENESIS study is also featured in the ARTE documentary, now available to watch online.

Through our wide range of massages and complementary therapies, body and mind are invited to fully let go.

From flowing Lomi Lomi to weightless underwater treatments and calming hot stones, each experience supports deep relaxation on every level.
And these are only a few of the therapies we offer.

At Buchinger, body and mind return to balance.

A perspective on longevity, consistency, and real prevention.

In the current February 2026 cover story of , Dr. Verena Buchinger shares why longevity is not about chasing extra years, but about how we live the ones we have. As medical director of the Buchinger Wilhelmi Clinic, she explains that regular fasting can measurably lower biological age compared to chronological age.

Not as a promise, but as an observation from decades of medical practice.

The key is consistency. What begins during a fasting program should continue in everyday life.

When someone who has dedicated his life to food discovers the power of not eating, it says something.

Manuel Reheis, chef at and awarded with a Michelin Green Star 🌿⭐ for his conscious, sustainable cuisine, joined us in Überlingen not as a speaker this time, but as a guest.

After previously sharing his vision at Nutrivention, he chose to experience Buchinger fasting himself.

His words?
A unique experience. Something everyone should try at least once.
A place where more is possible than you expect.

Thank you, for your openness and trust 🤍

Fasting isn’t one-size-fits-all ⏳

Whether you’re marking the start of Ramadan, Lent, or simply exploring a metabolic reset, the duration and approach matter more than the clock.

You can begin with a short reset at home using our Buchinger Fasting Box, or choose a longer, medically supervised therapeutic fast at our clinic, depending on your goals and health status.

Your body adapts. Your metabolism shifts. And the real benefits begin when sustainable habits follow. 💡

Safety, personalization, and proper guidance make the difference. Fasting is not the finish line, it’s the starting point for long-term change.

“Why not just do a Buchinger fast at home?” 🤔

Because safety matters.

Dr. Verena Buchinger explains: therapeutic fasting is a metabolic intervention. At our clinic, you are supported 24/7, medically supervised, and guided step by step.

🩺 Beyond that, we offer state-of-the-art in-depth diagnostics, from cellular analyses to comprehensive health assessments, plus a wide range of therapeutic options tailored to you. It’s about understanding your health, resetting safely, and building a lifestyle that lasts.

For those who just want to get a small taste of the fasting experience at home, we offer our .theoriginal 📦

It’s designed to support safe fasting at home, helping your body enter ketosis while following our proven program.

Today we honor the life and vision of Dr. Otto Buchinger (1878–1966) on what would have been his 148th birthday. At the age of 39, a severe rheumatic illness brought his medical career to a halt, until a 19-day fast changed everything and restored his health.

This turning point laid the foundation for the Buchinger Method of therapeutic fasting, a holistic approach that continues to support and inspire people around the world. Beyond his pioneering medical work, Dr. Buchinger was a deeply spiritual person with a profound love for nature and for his dachshund Maxl, who still has a special place in the gardens of our clinics in Überlingen and Marbella.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Buchinger. Your vision and legacy live on.

Long COVID: Can fasting help?

There’s still no established cure.
But in a small medically supervised case series, patients reported:

• Less fatigue
• Better well-being
• Improved daily functioning

After 6–16 days of Buchinger therapeutic fasting.

If considered, fasting must be medically supervised and part of a broader recovery plan.
Promising. Not a miracle. Science in progress.

💊 Anti-obesity drugs promise quick results, but often come with a familiar pattern: weight regain once they’re stopped, little long-term guidance, and a growing dependence on medication.

Our Scientific Director Dr. Robin Mesnage explains why regular, medically supervised fasting takes a different path. At Buchinger, fasting is not a short-term fix.

It is embedded in medical care, education, and lifestyle guidance, so lasting change becomes possible.

➡️ With our new programme FastForward breaking your fast is not the end of the journey.

No relapse. More understanding. And the tools to truly change how you live, eat, and relate to your body. 🌱

Some bands don’t just visit us, they truly belong here. 🎶

In the Salon in Überlingen, Triosence returned for another intimate live concert. A jazz band that has long been part of the Buchinger story, and Raimund Wilhelmi’s favourite for a reason. Over the years, they have not only performed here many times but even recorded an entire album within the clinic’s walls.

In conversation with Raimund Wilhelmi, bandleader Bernhard Schüler reflects on making music while fasting. Feeling physically challenged at times, yet experiencing remarkable mental clarity. Raimund Wilhelmi shares what has always guided him: music as a way of life.

Moments like these capture what makes this place special. Where fasting, creativity, conversation, and music come together, and where artists are not just guests, but part of the family.

Feeling overloaded? It might be time to press reset.

Fasting isn’t just about what you don’t eat; it’s about what your body starts doing when you stop.
Cellular repair, lower inflammation, and clearer thinking.

Ever experienced a sauna ritual led by a World Champion? 🏆

We’ve always believed that true health is holistic. It’s about medical expertise, but it’s also about how you feel in your soul.
That’s why we are so incredibly proud to open the doors to our brand new sauna.

Imagine this: The heat of the Finnish sauna, the gentle warmth of the Bio sauna, or the cleansing air of the infrared salt room... all while gazing out at the breathtaking calmness of Lake Constance. 🌊

We are honored to have Maik Brandenburg, an actual World Champion in sauna Aufguss, an infusion ritual, guiding you through rituals that turn sweating into an art form.

It’s the perfect addition to your medical journey here, a place to breathe deeper, pause longer, and truly unwind.
