The eight dietary stages

The Modern Mayr Cuisine practised at Park Igls is based on a model comprising eight dietary stages. Each stage focuses on a limited number of carefully selected products which are combined with various protein supplements, juices, teas and broths. The meals served at the higher stages of this pyramid could easily be found in any fine dining restaurant. Prepare to experience the world of gourmet fasting.

Individual nutritional plan

Made-to-measure

Based on your personal needs and wishes, our doctors will support and advise you in putting together a plan covering the eight dietary stages of Modern Mayr Medicine. You will start at a specific stage on the pyramid, but this may change during your stay. We carry out regular reviews and check-ups to ensure you are always at the right dietary stage for your current needs.

Basic foods in Modern Mayr Medicine

Even at dietary stage 1 you can eat a range of tasty, high-quality basic foods that are light on the stomach. These include:

  • Sheepsmilk youghurt, low-fat yoghurt, lactose-free yoghurt, fermented milk, buttermilk, malt coffee with milk
  • Malt coffee with soy drink, neutral soy drink, soy drink with grated almonds
  • Cowsmilk, low-fat milk, lactose-free milk
  • Alkaline-rich vegetable broth

All dietary stages at a glance

Fasting – the reset button for your digestive system. The success of this stage is down to the detail: thorough chewing, plenty of saliva, focus on monotony.

  • Herbal tea, orange juice, crispbread and alkaline-rich vegetable broth

Compared with Stage 0, we add a single additional item (Mayr bread roll) to help train the chewing process.

  • Mayr basic foods, Mayr bread roll, herbal tea with orange juice or alkaline-rich vegetable broth

Stage 2 introduces a new element: the protein supplement. This can come in the form of tofu, turkey, cream cheese, salmon, egg – you are free to choose.

  • Mayr basic foods, Mayr bread roll, protein supplement, herbal tea with orange juice or alkaline-rich vegetable broth

At Stage 3 the alkaline-rich vegetable soup is no longer optional but instead an integral part of your dietary regime. The protein supplement is increased from 90g to 150g.

A gentle food combining meal at lunchtime is added to the mix. Instead of Mayr bread rolls and a protein supplement, breakfast comprises a range of porridge variations to choose from.

  • Mayr basic foods, Mayr bread rolls, protein supplement or porridge prepared with milk (maize-gofio porridge, millet porridge, oatmeal porridge, spelt porridge), alkaline-rich vegetable soup, food combining main course, crispbread, herbal tea with orange juice
