Weeks 1-2

Initial Autophaygy stimulus with IF 16h and pescatarian diet

Week 1-2 is the first block and therefore your start of a Calicen Cycle. This is also the first block to be in our purge mesocycle. We adhere to tools which cleanse and purge our body. Beginning with a Pescatarian diet combined with 16h intermittent fasting, freeing us from processed foods and lactose for the time being. Our bodies capability to cleanse is enhanced by empowering our cardiovascular system with the right impulses. Cardio is king during the purge mesocycle.
