reSET – 5-Day Fasting-Mimicking Program | Made in Zurich

Experience fasting for 5 days while you keep eating delicious food. reSET is a plant-based fasting-mimicking program based on the nutritional protocol Prof. Valter Longo studied in clinical trials at the University of Southern California. You enjoy ready-to-eat meals, soups and snacks with a targeted balance of nutrients: about 1,000 kcal on day 1, then 750 kcal on days 2 to 5.

reSET is a Swiss alternative to other fasting-mimicking diets (FMD): every box is chef-created and made by hand in the canton of Zurich, and the program has been reviewed by a registered dietitian (BSc BFH SVDE) at Peak Nutrition GmbH.

Included: Pilates, yoga, breathwork and sound bath sessions, a mineral bath experience to unwind, botanical tablets for your evening ritual, to take before sleep, and 1:1 WhatsApp support throughout your 5 days.

The reSET program is shipped by Swiss PostPac Priority. Orders received before 14:00 on a business day are handed over to Swiss Post the same day.

Looking for more than a one-off program? We offer tailored packages built around specific goals: Weight Management, Gut Health, Healthy Longevity or GLP-1 Support.

5 DAYS OF DELICIOUS MEALS

reSET gives you 5 days of plant-based meals, soups and snacks, with every recipe created by chef and founder Alex. A 5-day calorie deficit can support weight management, and the fibre-focused menu is designed to support gut balance.


The menu follows the fasting-mimicking approach: low in calories, carbohydrates and protein, and higher in fat, with ingredients such as nuts, seeds and coconut. Each day brings a different breakfast and different soups, from raspberry to apple and pumpkin to beetroot and broccoli, with sweet and salty snacks in between.


We use freeze-dried and dehydrated ingredients to preserve flavour and colour. Simply add boiling water to your breakfasts, lunches and dinners for a warm and satisfying meal.


Everything is individually portioned and dry, so it needs no refrigeration. Each program has a best-before date 9 months from production, which lets you choose when to start.

Calories Day 1 | 1’000 kcal

ON-DEMAND MOVEMENT + MINDFULNESS SESSIONS

The sessions range from Pilates, yoga and functional training to breathwork and sound bath, so you can choose what suits you each day. They are on demand, so you can follow them at home whenever you have time.


Together with our partners, we have put together sessions to accompany your reSET:

Your 5-Day Fasting-Mimicking Program

Your 5-Day Program, Day by Day

tick
DAY 1 - BODY ACTIVATION

You reduce your calories to about 1,000 kcal, with breakfast, two soups and snacks. With fewer calories and carbohydrates coming in, your body can begin drawing on its stored glucose, known as glycogen. Follow your guide booklet and plan your 5 days of movement and rest.

tick
DAY 2 - KETOGENESIS

Today you move to about 750 kcal, as you will for the rest of the program. As glycogen stores run lower, your body may start producing ketones from fat, a process called ketogenesis. You may notice hunger or a headache, so remember to drink enough water.

tick
DAY 3 - DEEP FASTING MODE

Another day at about 750 kcal, with new soup and snack flavours. With calories and carbohydrates still low, your body may move further into a fasting-like metabolic state, and ketone levels can continue to rise. Keep movement gentle and make time for a yoga, breathwork or sound bath session.

tick
DAY 4 - METABOLIC FLEXIBILITY

Another day at about 750 kcal. Metabolic flexibility is the body’s ability to switch between glucose and fat as sources of energy. In ketosis, it uses more fat. Your evening ritual and mindfulness sessions can help you make space for yourself. If you need support, message us on WhatsApp.

tick
DAY 5 - COMPLETE RESET

Your final day at about 750 kcal completes your 5-day fasting-mimicking cycle. Read the guide booklet today to prepare for a gradual return to regular meals, as your body moves back from its fasting-like state.

I’ve done this program a few times now and always come away feeling healthy and energized. And by the way, I’ve never felt hungry on it. The food is delicious and filling.
Highly recommended!

R
Rike

Really nice fasting mimicking Program! The soups were mostly really delicious.
Put the psyllium seeds directly in the soup and added some water, made me feel more full.
I was only eager for protein sometimes, never really hungry. It was fun to prepare each day with soup, snack, electrolytes and morning porridge. Would love to do another one soon.
Noticed just some minor downsides: I am extremely sensitive to stimulants and one snack had cacao nibs what riled me totally up on day 3 also the sleeping pills contain inositol which also make me more alert so I skipped them.
Was also really looking forward to the nougat snacks that were mentioned in the booklet bc it’s my favorite but it was sesame. Which tasted fine though ☺️ 👍🏻

The electrolytes were really great I wish I could get them at Alex or another place in CH.

Laurie Chicha Gaudimier

From far the best fast mimicking diet program I ever followed!! All the products are absolutely delicious, conveniently crafted for easy transportation and I was looking forward to my soups at every meal! Even a week upon finishing the program, I am continuing to eat healthy and am more conscious about my portion sizes! Oh, and my mind is still crystal-clear, an amazing effect that starts at about day 3 of the program!!
Tiny complaint about the plastic containers for the soups, hopefully a more environment-friendly packaging could be thought through, like for the other packaging…thanks for this beautiful discovery!

Rahel

I tried the ReSET Program for the first time, but unfortunately, it didn’t work well for me and I decided to stop after Day 4.

By Day 3, the hunger had become almost unbearable, and I was very close to giving up that evening. By Day 4, I still felt extremely hungry and, more importantly, completely drained of energy. I could barely walk up the stairs, which was very unusual for me. I’m normally extremely fit, work as a personal trainer, and have a background in sports science, so feeling this weak was quite a shock.

Another reason I decided to stop was that I wasn’t seeing any meaningful change in my weight. Since starting the program, I had barely lost any weight, and I even gained 150 g from Day 3 to Day 4.

I understand that everyone responds differently to fasting and nutrition programs, and perhaps this type of fasting-mimicking approach simply isn’t suitable for everyone. However, based on my personal experience, the intense hunger, lack of energy, and lack of noticeable results made it difficult for me to justify continuing.

I’m disappointed that it didn’t work for me, especially given the expectations I had going into the program. I would be interested to hear whether others have had a similar experience or whether the program tends to work very differently depending on the individual.

Dear Rahel,

Thank you for the detailed feedback. I'm sorry to hear reSET left you this depleted. That's not the experience we want anyone to have, and stopping when you did was the right call.

One question, since it may be relevant for you and for other very active customers reading this: were you continuing your normal training load during the program? reSET is a significant calorie reduction, and we specifically recommend against high-intensity training while on it. We provide access to a set of program-specific workouts designed for the reduced calorie intake instead. Maintaining a normal training load on top of the protocol can intensify fatigue and hunger considerably, and work against the results you are aiming for.

We would also encourage anyone experiencing significant hunger or fatigue during the program to reach out to us directl. We're able to adjust guidance in real time rather than have someone push through alone.

Kind regards,
Alex

I won the package at the Health Messe in Basel and I completed the reSET program on Sunday.
At first, I was not sure when I’m able to do the program, because I didn’t want to lose weight. The products are vegan (I have lactose problem) and they don’t expire soon, which is amazing.
After being back from vacation and eating too much on a cruise, I decided to do it, especially as I was lazy to cook and didn’t want to do any groceries.
I was very disciplined, and I loved the products, I lost 2 kg at the end (I think my belly is a little bit leaner). I replaced the chocolate with 40 g of nuts, which was much easier for me and the seeping rate was amazing, thanks to the magical natural sleep tablets.
It was easy to communicate via WhatsApp if I had any questions. I was very happy to eat on day 6 again. It’s actually day 8, eating healthy, but sleep rate slightly lower (in the 70/80 vs 90-96 during the program).
I can totally recommend it even if you’re a fit person and I for sure will do it again.

The EatbyAlex fasting-mimicking program is exceptionally well structured and thoughtfully designed. It provides clear guidance for each day, making it easy to follow throughout the entire process. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast mixes and the small snacks, which were both satisfying and well-balanced.
After completing the program, I felt as though my body had gone through a real reset. I was pleasantly surprised by the increase in my energy levels and also appreciated the extra weight I lost.
I will plan to do it again for sure.
Thank you!

Birgitte Olsen

I have followed Eat by Alex since the very early days and tried many different options. The Fast mimicking Program in its actual form (powders, not self made power bars) feels a commodity and too expensive. I will not repeat the experience but make my own soups, broths and shakes again. Best,

Great and perfectly curated program. Loved the Glow Soup :-) feeling fit and lost more weight than expected.

Simone

I succesfully finished the 5-day ReSet program by EatbyAlex and really loved it. It’s so well organized, and I appreciate that there’s no need to buy anything apart. The soups are delicious, but my favorite part is the in between snacks, it keeps you feeling full. I feel more energized, and my skin looks noticeably more radiant and healthy. Apart from having a strong headache on Day 3 (= regular side effect) I felt pretty good during the week and I even lost 5kg. I can only recommend it and want to integrate the program as a permanet monthly reset into my schedule.

I just finished the 5-day Fasting Mimicking Diet by EatbyAlex and really loved it. It’s so well organized, and I appreciate that there’s no need for freezer storage anymore. The soups are delicious, but my favorite part is the breakfast assortment, it keeps you feeling full, even while fasting. The snacks are great too, and as a bouillon lover, I did two days with just bouillon for lunch and dinner instead of the soups for a bit more challenge. I feel more energized, and my skin looks noticeably more radiant and healthy. For a woman in her late 30s, it’s such an easy, convenient program to integrate as a monthly or twice-yearly reset. I’ll definitely do it again next month.

I’ve tried several of the products, and so far my favorites are the Morning Mixes, Chewy Bites, and Latte Blends. The delivery was fast, and the taste is amazing – everything is full of flavor without being overpowering.

I did reset and rebuild twice already. The fresh/ frozen food in both programs was really delicious and combined with some freshly chopped herbs even better. One comment about the snacks, they very very close to expiration date or even expired which definitely impacted the taste in one product for me.But I am about to order the next reset. It’s a great program.

Food tastes fresh in the reset program and worked like a charm!
However, some of the dry products (snack bars) had a very close expiration date.

A fasting-mimicking program made in Switzerland

Fasting-mimicking is a way of fasting for 5 days while you keep eating. Instead of a water or juice fast, you follow a set menu of plant-based meals, soups and snacks that is low in calories, carbohydrates and protein, and higher in fat.
reSET was developed in Zurich by chef and founder Alex, who created every recipe. Each box is made by hand in the canton of Zurich and contains your meals, snacks, guide booklet and extras for all 5 days, so you don’t need to shop or cook.
We ship across Switzerland with Swiss PostPac Priority, from Zurich, Basel and Bern to Geneva, Lausanne and Ticino. The box needs no refrigeration, so you can start when it suits you, at home, at work or while travelling. If you have questions during your 5 days, you can message us on WhatsApp for 1:1 support.

  • No cooking: everything is individually portioned and delivered to your door. Just add hot water and follow the meal plan.
  • Delicious: each recipe, from the nuts to the soups, was created by Alex, a trained chef.
  • Fibre-focused: this is not a juice fast. You get crunchy nuts, flavourful soups and sweet and savoury snacks.
  • Savoury-led: instead of a fruit-heavy fast, the menu is built around savoury soups, with both sweet and savoury snacks.
  • Movement and mindfulness included: you get unlimited access to online sessions as part of the program.
How often can you do reSET?

No more than one 5-day cycle a month, and only if you are healthy. If you plan repeated cycles or are unsure, speak to your doctor or a dietitian first.

When is reSET delivered?

reSET is shipped by Swiss PostPac Priority. Orders received before 14:00 on a business day are handed over to Swiss Post the same day.

Can I pick up my program?

No, pick-up is no longer possible.

When can I start?

You can start any time. Your program has a best-before date 9 months from production. It comes in a dry format and needs no special storage, so you can take it anywhere. You only need hot water to prepare your breakfasts, lunches and dinners.

Fasting-mimicking vs juice cleanse (sometimes also referred as a juice fast)

A juice cleanse is mostly liquid. It usually provides mainly carbohydrates from fruit, with little protein, fat or fibre. reSET includes warm meals, crunchy nuts and snacks, with a fibre-focused menu in which fat is the main source of calories.

Fasting-mimicking vs water fast

A water fast means no food at all. With reSET, you eat meals and snacks every day, at about 1,000 kcal on day 1 and 750 kcal on days 2 to 5. It is a different approach and does not replace medical advice on fasting.

How does fasting-mimicking work?

The fasting-mimicking diet is a concept studied by Prof. Valter Longo at the University of Southern California. It involves 5 days of reduced calories, with low protein, low carbohydrates and a higher share of fat. reSET is inspired by this concept, with our own recipes and ingredients. You can read more in Prof. Longo's book,  “The Longevity Diet”. 

What are the macronutrients in reSET?

reSET has the following macronutrient breakdown:


Fats: 53-60% of daily calories

  • The primary source of fats are monounsaturated fats (from nuts, and seeds) and polyunsaturated fats.
  • Trans fats and highly processed oils are not found in reSET.

Carbohydrates: 25-34% of daily calories

  • Carbohydrates come from whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and seeds.
  • Processed and refined carbs (e.g., white bread, pasta) are not found in reSET.

Proteins: 13-16% of daily calories

  • Protein sources include nuts and seeds

Additionally ,reSET provides 21–29 g of fibre a day, depending on the day.

Where can I buy a fasting-mimicking program in Switzerland?

You can order reSET directly from Eat by Alex. It is made in the canton of Zurich and shipped across Switzerland with Swiss PostPac Priority. It is also available in pharmacies and drugstores across Zurich.

How much does reSET cost?

One reSET program costs CHF 319, including tax. Packages of 2 or 3 cycles cost CHF 309 or CHF 289 per cycle. Shipping is calculated at checkout.

Do I need to cook?

No. You only need hot water from a kettle for your breakfasts, lunches and dinners, and the snacks are ready to eat.

Is reSET vegan?

The reSET menu is 100% plant-based. It is produced in a facility that also processes milk, nuts, sesame, mustard, soy and gluten, so please check the ingredient list if you have an allergy.

Can I work during reSET?

You can take reSET to work, as the meals only need hot water and travel easily. Keep movement light to moderate and avoid high-intensity training. You may feel tired or hungry, so choose your 5 days with that in mind.

Has it been reviewed by a dietitian?

Yes, the reSET program was reviewed in January 2026 by a registered dietitian (BSc BFH SVDE) at Peak Nutrition GmbH.

Who is it not for?

reSET is not suitable if you are:

  • under 18
  • pregnant or breastfeeding
  • underweight (BMI less than 18.5)
  • feeling weak or sick
  • an athlete in training or competition
  • allergic to nuts, seeds or grains

or if you have:

  • liver or kidney disease
  • low or high blood pressure
  • a history of eating disorders
  • thyroid disorders, particularly Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism

If you take medication, or have diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular, autoimmune or neurodegenerative disease, only start reSET with your doctor's approval.

Are there any possible side effects?

You may feel weak, have flu-like symptoms, nausea, dry mouth, constipation or diarrhoea, bloating or gas, feel cold or hungry, or be irritable. Headaches, from mild to strong migraines, are also very common in the first 2 to 3 days, especially when you cut out caffeinated drinks and refined sugars.

Clinical studies have identified potential risks and discomfort associated with low-calorie, low-protein diets such as reSET, including anxiety, depression, dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, headache, hunger, irritability, muscle aches, nausea or spinal pain.

Drink plenty of water, and leave at least 12 hours between your last meal and the next day's first meal. If symptoms are severe or you feel unwell, stop the program and contact your doctor.
