Preparing for the 5-day modified Metamorphosis of Cellular Health fast
In this module, we will look at how to prepare for the 5-day challenge, which is crucial for successful implementation. We will be equipped with all the necessary information, instructions and guidelines to help us implement the challenge and achieve our goals.
The preparation phase is essential for the success of the 5-day challenge, as it allows us to prepare properly both physically and mentally. With the knowledge, guidance and team support we will be better able to overcome any obstacles and move closer to our goals. That's why we have prepared for you a training during the first and second week, Revitalizing Metabolism and Energy, which not only prepares you for a modified food fast, but also teaches you how to use food and other interventions to improve our metabolism, reduce inflammation and increase energy.
To get you started, here is a workbook to guide you through the third week and the 5-day modified fast.
1. Reviewing recipes and eating lists
Before you start the fast, familiarise yourself with all the recipes and dietary guidelines so that you are prepared for a successful fast. Study menus and plan meals in advance to reduce stress and increase the effectiveness of the fast.
2. Food preparation - Shopping list (proposal)
Preparing a shopping list for the necessary foods is crucial for a successful 5-day fast. An accurate list ensures that you have all the groceries you need, making it easier to follow the plan without unnecessary stress or interruptions. Focusing on foods that are rich in healthy fats, protein and low in carbohydrates ensures that you follow the dietary guidelines of the fast and maximise its health benefits. This will ensure that you have all the foods and supplements you need, increasing the likelihood that you will successfully follow the plan and experience all the benefits of fasting. It also reduces the stress associated with last-minute grocery shopping. And of course, tailor your shopping list to your needs and preferences.

3. Preparation of supporting nutrients - additional / optional
If you have problems with low-calorie, low-carbohydrate diets, or if your body is more burdened by toxins, some food supplements can help. Dietary supplements can provide the extra support your body needs during a fast to help you feel better and achieve your goals more easily. They can also help reduce the side effects of fasting, such as fatigue, hunger and lack of energy.

4. Measurement before the challenge - additional
Measuring body parameters before and during the fasting process is crucial to monitor the progress and effectiveness of the programme. Regular measurements allow an accurate assessment of the physiological changes that occur as a result of fasting and help to adapt the programme to individual needs. We recommend that before starting the 5-day modified fast:
- Complete the initial questionnaires and tests: complete the symptom questionnaire again, which can be found on the online platform in the "measurements" module or among the e-guides. After the 5-day challenge, repeat it and compare the results.
- Take initial measurements of basic body parameters: more in the workbook.
- Perform additional advanced measurements (optional, for those who want to go deeper into the analysis): weighing with a smart scale (optional), blood sugar and ketone measurement (optional).

5. Introducing additional support practices
The 5-day challenge is an effective approach that can improve your health and vitality. To make this way of eating as successful as possible, it is important to include additional supportive practices that help to detoxify and add benefits to your body. Choose one or more self-care practices to incorporate into your daily routine. Commit to these practices with consistency and mindfulness, listening to your body and enjoying the results. Recommended:
- Dry skin brushing: dry skin brushing with a natural bristle brush (before showering) opens the pores and mechanically facilitates the elimination of toxins.
- Tongue scraping: scraping the tongue with a tongue scraper helps remove toxins and bacteria that build up on the tongue and improves oral hygiene.
- Sauna: a sauna stimulates sweating, improves blood circulation and reduces stress, supporting detoxification processes.
- Sea salt baths: baths with added sea or Epsom salt relax the body and help to remove toxins through the skin.
- Oil mouth rinse: oil pulling is an Ayurvedic practice that helps remove toxins from the oral cavity and improves oral health.

6. Psychological preparation and goal setting
Psychological preparation and goal-setting are key to motivation and the successful completion of Lent. It helps to overcome challenges and maintain motivation throughout the process. During the fasting period, we may face many challenges such as hunger, fatigue and emotional stresses. It is important to focus on your goals and the 'why'. This will help you stay motivated and focused throughout the whole process of fasting and the metamorphosis of vitality.

7. Group support and practice sessions in a closed Facebook group
Connect with the community for additional support, motivation and sharing of experiences. Regular check-ins and other activities in our Facebook group will help you stay focused and motivated throughout the challenge. Physical activity promotes detoxification and overall health. This week we will focus on light exercise such as walking, stretching, yoga, breathing exercises, etc.
