Wasserfasten – wie es funktioniert und warum es Wunder wirkt. Ein Abend mit Prof. Dr. Peter Schwarz

In the organizer's words:

Prof. Dr. Peter Schwarz has been researching methods to effectively treat chronic diseases for many years and discovered the power of fasting rather by chance. The effect surprised him so much that he systematically investigated the biochemical processes behind complete fasting and discovered that just two weeks without food significantly reduces liver fat, which plays a central role in type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and many inflammatory diseases. In his new book "Wasserfasten - Diabetes und andere entzündliche Krankheiten in nur 14 Tagen besiegen" (DuMont-Buchverlag), he writes about the latest medical findings on fasting.

The Cologne book premiere will take place on March 16 in the Workstage of the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger. Peter Schwarz, who heads the Department of Prevention at Dresden University Hospital and is President of the International Diabetes Federation, will explain in detail on the evening why our bodies need regular periods of hunger from an evolutionary perspective, what profound changes take place during fasting and why intermittent fasting and other shortened methods do not break down liver fat sufficiently. Schwarz also explains what women should pay particular attention to and how to successfully keep going for two weeks in order to activate the inner reset button of the metabolism.

After the lecture and discussion, the audience will have the opportunity to ask the expert questions. The book can also be purchased on site. The event will be moderated by Joachim Frank, chief correspondent of the "Kölner Stadt Anzeiger". Free choice of seats.

The Workstage is located at Amsterdamer Straße 192, 50735 Cologne, and is easily accessible by public transport via lines 13 and 16 (Amsterdamer Straße/Gürtel stop). Free parking is also available next to the publishing house.
