WHERE THE ELITE ARE GOING

Buchinger Wilhelmi Clinic, Uberlingen, Germany

The Buchinger Wilhemi programme is not for sissies. However, it does get amazing results, largely through the well-proven therapeutic effects of fasting, with visitors undergoing six days on 350 calories a day. The clinic says that its new Immunity+ programme has been designed “to reduce the main risk factors for severe cases of coronavirus and to boost the immune system”. buchingerwilhelmi.com
