Keto Food Fast Retreat*

Regenerate and Rejuvenate

There are many clinical trials that prove that fasting, for *most people, is beneficial for health. Since ancient times humans have fasted, sometimes for religious reasons but often simply because food was scarce. The human body is designed to go through stages of feast and famine. In the 21st century however most people living in the Western world only ever experience the ‘feast’.

​

Recently interest in fasting has grown exponentially and there are a plethora of differing regimes that come under the umbrella title of fasting. Intermittent, alternate-day, TRE (time-restricted eating) and extended fasting are just four differing ways in which we can limit our daily intake.

​

The most current research shows that fasting may:

​

  • Reduce weight and visceral fat*

  • Improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar levels

  • Reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Slow aging and mental decline

  • Increase stem cells

  • Induce autophagy and cell regeneration

This is the place to come if you are at a turning point in your life for whatever reason. Where you can just be ‘the real you’ or find the person you had lost somewhere in life. I am not sure the exact moment I was guided to The Raw Retreat – but when I found it I knew it was exactly the right place at the right time for me. I am blessed to have been guided here.

Thanks so much for your support and help during my time at the retreat. It was a great experience and I'm encouraged by my progress and looking forward to the possibilities in the future.

The Simply Stay Keto Food Fast Retreat has been very carefully designed to replicate the benefits of fasting while still providing the body with complete nutrition from real food rather than dehydrated, packaged meals or shakes.

 

The very specific amounts protein, fat and carbohydrate in this 7 night retreat (5 x day fast on real food and then re-introduction to more varied foods) and the amount of daily calories consumed (no more than 800) causes your body to generate energy from non-carbohydrate sources after glycogen stores are depleted.

 

The unique combination of macro and micro nutrients from plant sources, low in some specific amino acids and the reduction in calories is designed to trick your body into thinking it’s fasting, even though it’s being given energy. The diet plan is mimicking a fasting state and therefore triggers the body's own self-healing and cellular repair process called autophagy.

​

Strict fasting is hard for some people to stick to so we have developed this complex diet that triggers the same beneficial effects in the body without the deprivation and hunger.

My experience at The Raw Retreat gave me the “jump start” and motivation I needed to get back into a healthy lifestyle. It was perfect. It was truly a mind, body and spirit experience.

I didn’t come to The Raw Retreat to lose weight but to be shown a better way of living.

​

I shall always keep your kindness and support in my heart and I know I am extremely lucky to have met you.
