But a long,radical fast causesmuscle loss. <strong>Almased</strong>®can help prevent this.No solid food forweeks, just water,tea, vegetable brothand vegetable juice: Millionsof people fast on a regularbasis. Instead of talking abouthunger and deprivation, theyreport feeling happy and content,refreshed and energized.And often they also experiencea significant weight loss.But there is a catch: Themajority of the lost weight ismuscle mass. Eating normalagain after fasting leads to arude awakening: Less musclemass means lower energyexpenditure – the body usesfewer calories than beforeand stores the excess as fat.This dreaded yo-yo effect –lose weight, gain back moreweight – can be avoided byfasting with <strong>Almased</strong> ® .Therefore, <strong>Almased</strong> ® hasdeveloped a program thatsupplements the broth andwater with <strong>Almased</strong> ® shakes<strong>Fasting</strong> with<strong>Almased</strong>®b A classic fast hastwo disadvantages:You feel hungryand not only losefat but mainlymuscle mass.b Therefore, <strong>Almased</strong>®has developeda program forprotein-modifiedfasting duringwhich you havethree <strong>Almased</strong>®shakes daily.b This brochuredescribes in detailwhat to keep inmind while fastingwith <strong>Almased</strong>®,illustrates a dailydiet plan andpro vides recipesfor the shakes.prepared with vegetable juice.<strong>Almased</strong> ® supplies high-qualityprotein: The powder containsmainly fermented soy protein,which the body can easily absorb,and has also been shownto sustain muscle mass duringthe weight loss process.

<strong>Almased</strong>® activatesthe metabolismAll-natural – what <strong>Almased</strong>® can do for your body,how it works and why it can curb hunger for a longerperiod of time.<strong>Almased</strong>® achievesb Optimal metabolismthrough the combinationof its basic ingredients.<strong>Almased</strong> ® is made fromhigh-quality soy, probioticyogurt and rawhoney. Honey enzymes, protein,bioactive phytochemicalsfrom the soy and yogurt culturesare the most importantingredients. The combinationof the ingredients causes a synergisticeffect: The componentsof one ingredient increase thebenefits of the others. Aninnovative product is created:<strong>Almased</strong> ® .Why does <strong>Almased</strong>® helpspeeding up the metabolism?Many diseases occur because themetabolism does not functionproperly. One of the maincauses for a slower metabolismare unhealthy eating habits –usually sugar, salt and fat intakeare too high. However, thequality of our food is anotherproblem: A lot of times, thereare not enough nutrients in thefood we consume on a dailybasis. These nutrients, however,are important for a properlyfunctioning metabolism. As aresult, a large number of peoplehave an extremely slowmetabolism, which can leadto obesity, lack of energy andother diseases.How can you lose weightwithout feeling hungrywhen using <strong>Almased</strong>®?The high-quality and easilydigestible protein in <strong>Almased</strong> ®ensures a long-lasting feelingof satiety: One meal replace-b Higher fat burningprocess without losingmuscle mass.b <strong>Almased</strong>® consumershave more energy andstrengthen their immunesystem as well as theirmuscles.b <strong>Almased</strong>® can be combinedwith all commondiets and has been provento increase their success.ment (about 260 calories;50 g <strong>Almased</strong> ® in 10-12 oz ofwater with 2 teaspoons of oil)keeps you full for about fourhours because <strong>Almased</strong> ® supportsthe ghrelin level. Ghrelinis a tissue hormone that is producedin the stomach and controlsthe feeling of hunger.Why do you lose mainly fatand not muscle mass on the<strong>Almased</strong>® Diet, unlike on otherdiets?The glycemic index measuresthe effect of a food item on theblood sugar level. <strong>Almased</strong> hasa very low glycemic index. Witha low glycemic index, the bloodsugar level increases only slightlyand the body releases a respectivelylower amount of insulin.A lower insulin level helpsthe body burn more fat whilemaintaining muscle mass.<strong>Almased</strong>® improvesyour energy leveland strengthens yourimmune system.Start your day withmore energy<strong>Almased</strong>® contains importantessential nutrients and cellprotective phytochemicals.

Eight important things to keepin mind during a fast.Plus: Feel good tips while fasting.The right way of fastingAdvice: MeditationInner calmness and serenity are part of a successfulfast. This is best achieved through meditation. It positivelyinfluences brain activity, muscle tension, blood pressureand circulation. Meditating leads to a quick state of relaxation.It is simple: Assume a comfortable seating position and relax.Close your eyes and listen to your inner voice, pay attention tothe calm and regular flow of your breath. After each exhale,hold your breath and think intensively about a relaxingword such as “serenity” or “sleep.” Practicethis for 20 minutes daily.Meditating helpsto achieve innercalmness and serenity:It is very easy.6 7


Not just your imagination: The “fasting-euphoria” helpsyou to give up food. Two hormones are responsible – and<strong>Almased</strong>®.Being in a great moodeven when you are noteating: Scientists callthis phenomenon “fasting-euphoria”.Many people experiencethis feeling when they giveup solid food during a fast. Youfeel light and satisfied and willexperience inner balance andserenity. Many cultures haveknown of and have utilized thepositive effects of fasting on thehuman psyche for centuries.Scientists have investigated thephenomenon and found twopossible explanations.Advice:ExerciseMany people thinkthat they should notexercise at all whilefasting. The contrary istrue: Exercise is part ofa fast. People who fastgenerally do not lackenergy because thebody uses its reserves,which ensuresthat it getsnutrients. Exercise signals the body that it needsmuscle mass and should break down fat instead.But do not get overly ambitious:Stop if you feel exhausted.Both are relatedto the release ofhormones. Thefeeling of hungerduring a fast increasesthe releaseof the hormoneghrelin. This hormonesignals thebody that it ishungry, but alsodiminishes fearand depression,as scientists ofthe Universityof Texas foundout recently. Thisis how natureensured thathumans in primevaltimes werebrave enough to Advice: Moodhunt when theywere hungry.After a few days of fasting, people often feelToday, thisrelieved and slightly euphoric.

<strong>Fasting</strong> is hip: Madonna andBeyoncé swear by itStars like Madonna, OprahWinfrey and Beyoncé publiclyswear by fasting and have anumber of followers.While fasting, detoxifyingmeans that the reward for givingup food is a healthy bodyand a radiant appearance.Researchers have found that atleast five percent of damagedcells are destroyed and replacedwith new cell material duringa fast. Toxins are released fromthe cells and discharged, thecolon is cleansed and liquid isflushed from the tissue, whichresults in a better skin.How ever, all common fasts –whether they are done accordingto the fasting pioneerBuchinger, Mayr, Thalasso orMaster-Cleanse – have significantdis advantages: The starvingbody not only taps into fat reservesto get the energy it lacks,but also utilizes easily availablemuscle protein – which resultsAdvice:Contrastshowers andsaunaConsuming less food can bring downyour cardiovascular system. The quickchange of cold and warm stimuli keepsit functioning well.

However, you should notstart going to the sauna untilyour third or fourth day on thefast since your cardiovascularsystem needsto be stable.in loss of muscle instead of fat.Additionally, many minerals,which are not only importantfor bones and teeth, are notsupplied sufficiently during alonger fast. For about a week,the body can live on itsreserves. After that, a lack ofnutrients occurs.These problems can beavoided: <strong>Fasting</strong> with <strong>Almased</strong> ®lets you profit from the advantageswithout having to worryabout the disadvantages.Muscle mass remains intact, thebody gets what it needs –fasting the healthy way. For ahealthy fast, you shouldremember the following eightpoints:1. The body needsprotein:While fasting, it is importantto consumehigh-quality, easilydigestible protein – atleast 90 grams per day.This equals approximately180 grams of<strong>Almased</strong> ® .2. Few carbohydrates:The carbohydrates in<strong>Almased</strong> ® – 30 grams in100 grams of <strong>Almased</strong> ® –are sufficient during a fast.You do not need to count thecarbohydrates from the vegetablesused to prepare the shakes.1011


<strong>Fasting</strong> with <strong>Almased</strong>® is the idealbeginning of a healthier lifestyle3. Important fats:Three tablespoons of oil (canola,olive, flaxseed or walnut aregood choices) should be partof the daily diet. They arenecessary for many bodilyfunctions, e.g. brain functionor production of cell membranesand hormones.It is unhealthy to completelycut out those healthy fatsfrom the diet.4. Stay hydrated:You should drink at least 32 ozof mineral-rich water (e.g.Gerolsteiner ® ) daily in additionto the <strong>Almased</strong> ® shakes.5. Consume bioactivephytochemicals:Consuming sufficient plantnutrients is also important toensure an optimal metabolism.Tip: Quickerweight lossDuring a diet, the body pro duces acidwaste products at an increased level, whichslows down the fat burning process. Alkalinemineral citrates, such as magne sium,potassium and calcium citrates, can helpavoid this from happening. They neutralizeaccumulated acids, whichleads to quicker fat loss.12There are plenty in thedelicious <strong>Almased</strong> ® shakesprepared with vegetables.6. Stay regular:Only a well-functioning intestineguarantees an optimal fast.To support the intestinal flora,it is recommended to take probioticsthat contain a mixture oflactobacilli and bifidobacteria.7. Regulate nutrients:During a liquid fast, the bodyoften does not get enoughnutrients. Therefore, it may bebeneficial to take a daily multivitaminand minerals as well astwo or three omega-3 capsules.8. Keep your acid-basebalance in mind:A balanced acid-base level is aprerequisite for a well-functioningmetabolism. During adiet, the body produces acidwaste products at an increasedlevel. This resultsin a slower metabolismand reduced weightloss process. Studieshave shown that themajority of thepopulation does notconsume enoughminerals. Mineralsare important for theacid-base balance in thehuman organism. Potassi-TheResult:Weight LossDuring one week of fasting, mengenerally lose between eleven and fourteenpounds, women around ninepounds*. Physical activity pays off: Exercisesupports weight loss results andoverall well-being. If you want tokeep off the weight permanently,pay attention to a healthydiet and regularexercise.um is the counterpart to sodiumand ensures that fluids areflushed from the tissue.Potassium and magnesium combinedare important for theneural stimuli transfer. Theyensure that you will not “loseyour nerves” during a diet.Calcium is important for the fatburning process and increasesthe thermogenesis (energy consumptionthrough increased heatproduction). Therefore, youshould ensure that your bodygets enough magnesium, calciumand potassium. Take a supplementif necessary. Monitoringyour pH level helps to keeptrack of your acid-base balance.To test the pH level, test the firsturine of the day. Briefly placethe strip in the urine stream andread it after 15 seconds.* Weight loss may vary from person to personUsually, the morning urine isacidic (below 6.8). If you take amineral supplement before bedtime,your first urine of the dayshould be more alkaline (above6.8). Test your urine a few timesper day to receive a more preciseoverview if your body is acidicor alkaline. Keep in mind thatmedications may change the pHlevel. Talk to your health careprovider to find out if this test isappropriate for you.<strong>Fasting</strong> alone does not lead topermanent weight lossIf you stick to the advice mentioned,you will be able to fastin a healthy and safe manner. Inaddition, the pounds will meltaway. <strong>Almased</strong> ® -modified fastingis the ideal first step towardsa healthier lifestyle.13


“Protein helps to avoid the depletion ofvaluable body substances“What does science say about fasting? What do you haveto keep in mind? An interview with nutritional scientistProfessor Dr. Michael Hamm.Can fasting also beharmful? After all,during a radical fastwith only water and tea, thebody soon begins to lack importantnutrients. It switchesinto starvation mode anddepletes the muscles. Nutritionalscientist Professor Dr.Michael Hamm explains howthe negative aspects of strictfasting can be avoided andwhat <strong>Almased</strong> ® can do for thebody in this regard.“Musclesare thefoundationof a slenderbody”:<strong>Fasting</strong> with<strong>Almased</strong>®retainsmusclemass.What is your opinion as anutritional scientist aboutfasting?Prof. Dr. Hamm: When doinga radical fast – meaning peopleonly consume calorie freeliquids such as water and tea –the most obvious result theysee is weight loss. This is due tothe fact that excess weight resultsfrom a problem betweenthe balance of energy intakethat is too high and/or energyexpenditure that is too low.However, it is known thatpeople not only fast to loseweight. <strong>Fasting</strong> can have otherhealth benefits, such asde toxification and rest for thedigestive system.What does proteinmodifiedfasting mean?Prof. Dr. Hamm: Unlike theso-called radical fast – alsoknown as the zero caloriediet – protein-modified fastingincludes the consumptionof biologically high-qualityprotein. This avoids the significantloss of the body’s ownprotein that happens duringa radical fast. The depletionof body substances – especiallyof muscle mass – can beprevented.Prof. Dr. troph.Michael Hamm,Nutritional Scientistin Hamburg,GermanyAreas of expertise:Nutrition for athletes andweight loss; author of severaldiet advice books (e.g.:“The proper diet forathletes”, riva publisher).Professor Hamm is coinitiatorof the innovative24-Hour-Diet in Germany:www.24-stunden-diaet.de14 15


Why is this important?Prof. Dr. Hamm: Muscle massis important for a slender bodyand also shapes our figure.Protein-modified fasting with<strong>Almased</strong> ® preserves well-beingand performance better thandrastic calorie reduction. Additionally,the feeling of satiety ispositively influenced. This is anecessary prerequisite forsticking to a diet – if you areconstantly hungry, you will giveup quicker.During a fast, you basicallyonly consume liquid food.This often causes a feelingof deprivation. What can bedone about this?Prof. Dr. Hamm: On the onehand, liquid foods like<strong>Almased</strong> ® , broth and soups aswell as drinks low in sugar havea high volume and lead to agreat feeling of satiety becausethey fill up the stomach whilehaving respectively low calories.On the other hand, liquidsoften tempt us to consumethem quickly and we do notrealize that they are consideredactual meals. That is why it isimportant to enjoy themslowly, sip by sip.How can we train ourselves toenjoy food and drinks slowly?Prof. Dr. Hamm: One way tohelp train ourselves to enjoyfoods and drinks slowly duringand after a fast is to first startoff by using a spoon and consumethe liquid in this manner.This will help build up thehabit of eating slowly, so that itcan be done even when actualmeals are eaten. Only when welearn to eat slowly willwe finally be able tofully enjoy ourfoods and knowwhen we are full.“It is importantto enjoy allliquids slowly,sip by sip” – thatway, hunger can beavoided.Which flavor variations areallowed during a fast with<strong>Almased</strong>®?Prof. Dr. Hamm: There are anumber of recipes included inthe recipe part of this brochurethat provide creative ways toprepare <strong>Almased</strong> ® so thatseveral varieties of the deliciousshake can be enjoyed. Thedrinks with vegetables furthersupport the effect of proteinmodifiedfasting. They supplyimportant minerals, such aspotassium, that help to stabilizethe acid-base balance which canbecome unbalanced during afast. Plenty of herbs may alsobe used to season the shakes.What else is allowed during afast with <strong>Almased</strong>®?Prof. Dr. Hamm: It is importantto consume plenty ofliquids. You should consume atotal of about 80 oz of liquidseach day. Calorie-free liquidslike water and mineral waterare ideal – preferably thosewith a high calcium content.Adding low-sodium vegetablejuice is beneficial because itcontains minerals like potassiumand magnesium, whichactivate the metabolism andpositively influence the acidbasebalance. Unsweetenedtea (black tea, green tea, herbaltea and fruit tea) as well ashot vegetable broth are alsoallowed. Aside from those,you should stick to the threedaily shakes made from<strong>Almased</strong> ® and vegetable juice.“You shouldconsume about80 oz of liquidseach day”: Wateris always partof it.How do you ensure a smoothand easy transition to regularfood after the fast?Prof. Dr. Hamm: The aforementionedeating rhythm isalso suggested for the so-called“fast breaking period.” In orderto get used to eating regularfood again, you should startwith consuming easily digestiblemeals, including steamedvegetables, oatmeal with gratedapples and milk products.Helpful recipes can also befound in this brochure. Keep aslow and steady tempo to havea smooth and easy transitionthat you will enjoy. Good luck!1617
