2. Personalized treatment plan: Based on the initial assessment, doctors create a tailored program of therapies, treatments, and dietary recommendations.

   • Eating slowly and chewing thoroughly
   • Consuming smaller portions
   • Avoiding raw foods after 4pm
   • Eliminating alcohol, caffeine, dairy, gluten, and sugar
   • Incorporating alkalizing foods and supplements

By combining these elements, the VIVAMAYR concept aims to detoxify the body, reset the digestive system, boost immunity, and provide guests with the knowledge and tools to maintain improved health and well-being long after their stay.

The VIVAMAYR diet and nutrition program is a comprehensive approach to improving health through gut healing and detoxification. Key aspects include:

Mindful eating: Guests are taught to chew food thoroughly (20-40 times per bite) and eat slowly to aid digestion. Eating raw foods after 4pm is discouraged as they are harder to digest.

Portion control: Meals start with small, low-calorie portions and gradually progress to more varied options as the stay continues. This gives the digestive system a chance to rest and recover.

Alkaline foods: The diet emphasizes alkaline foods to balance acidity in the gut. Guests drink alkalizing base powder in the evenings.

Elimination of certain foods: Alcohol, caffeine, dairy, gluten, and sugar are removed from the diet.

Herbal teas and broths: Guests are encouraged to drink plenty of water, herbal teas, and clear vegetable broths between meals.

Healthy oils: Cold-pressed organic oils like linseed, hemp, and sunflower are used to supplement meals.

Personalization: Diets are customized based on individual health assessments and goals.

High-quality ingredients: Meals use organic, seasonal ingredients prepared to preserve nutrients.

Digestive aids: Guests drink Epsom salt water in the mornings to cleanse the colon.

Supplements: Personalized supplements are prescribed based on individual needs.

The program aims to reset digestion, reduce inflammation, and promote overall health through this carefully designed nutritional approach combined with medical treatments and lifestyle changes. Guests typically follow a modified version of the diet for several weeks after their stay to maximize benefits.
