Program Description

This program qualifies professionals and health practitioners to lead and supervise fasting groups, fasting retreats, and individual dietary detox programs safely and competently. Designed for nutrition consultants, fitness coaches, prevention specialists, and wellness professionals, the curriculum delivers the foundational methodologies needed to guide clients through holistic fasting processes. Participants develop a deep understanding of preventive healthcare and the physical and emotional shifts that occur during caloric restriction.

The curriculum encompasses nine distinct thematic modules covering medical fundamentals, nutritional physiology, the human immune system, and psychological aspects of fasting. Instruction explores established methods including classical Buchinger therapeutic fasting, alkaline fasting, and fasting hiking concepts certified by the German Society for Prevention and Health Promotion (DGPG). In addition, coursework addresses movement therapy, relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation and autogenic training, group organization, legal liability, and strategic health marketing.

Delivered through a flexible digital self-study format, the course provides immediate access to dynamic learning pathways, instructional videos, and practical implementation materials such as complete weekly schedules and intake questionnaires. Knowledge checks and automated testing conclude each section, culminating in an official certificate and a lifetime instructor license, with the option to pursue additional accredited video-based examinations through the DGPG.
