Health Overhaul (Women only): Seven Day Guided Fasting Retreat with Vinka

Whether you are new to one of our retreat experiences, or a returning client, make the most of this exclusive opportunity to experience the health and wellness benefits of fasting under the guidance and experience of  Functional Nutritionist, Vinka and the award winning Resolution Retreats nutritional and facilitation team.

Whether you’re new to fasting, or have some experience in the area, benefit from an all-inclusive health overhaul.

As an added extra, the retreat will include a sought-after full review of key blood-based nutrients, health protocol and report and one hour one-one-one consultation with Vinka – a service which has been truly life changing for many of our clients.

The retreat will follow a specific fasting-mimicking meal plan, designed by Vinka, which is based on research by Dr Valter Longo and his team at the Longevity Institute. Longo and his team found that the benefits of fasting are produced by the restriction of specific nutrients that activate pro-aging pathways and that restricting these nutrients mimics effects of fasting while still providing some nourishment.

Our menu will provide specific macro and micronutrients which support your body while still obtaining the overall sought-after health benefits of fasting.  These benefits can include:

• Increased weight loss & reduce belly fat
• Improved cardiovascular health markers
• Supports healthy blood sugar levels
• Supports cancer treatments
• Reduces inflammation & helps treat autoimmune conditions
• Supports longevity
• Encourage cellular autophagy (the process by which your cells consume their damaged parts, using them as energy for healthy cells)
• Detoxification

Retreat activities will include multiple health and wellness workshops with Vinka, as well as daily gentle movement classes.
