The Chenot Diet is one of the integral components of the Chenot Method®. 

It is an intervention in the programme which is specially formulated to support the self-healing mechanisms of the body, cleanse the body at a cellular level, facilitate metabolic balance, restore the biorhythm, harmonise the hormones, equilibrate the gut flora and create fresh energy and new cells, that keeps us biologically young. It has been carefully designed to work in synergy with the medical treatments. It consists of a reduced-calorie plant-based diet specially formulated to activate the body’s fasting mechanisms whilst providing sufficient nourishment to the cells.” 

The diet is high in nutrients, with a specific combination of good fats, low glycaemic index carbohydrates, fibres, and limited plant proteins. It is a “fasting with food” approach which provides nourishment to the body and reduces the risks associated with total fasting. In total, 850 calories across three meals are served daily as the body must enter a fasted state that enhances “autophagy” which is the body's way of cleaning out damaged cells, regenerating new, healthier cells and promoting rejuvenation. 

Chenot Palace Weggis combines a 5,000 sqm state-of-the-art medical spa, unique advanced diagnostics, powerful personalised treatments, and detoxification techniques with the highest levels of superlative hospitality. There’s a medical and energy wing, a hydrotherapy and massage wing, and two spacious waiting rooms. The consulting rooms overlook several Japanese-inspired Zen gardens. 

To enhance the detox process, the medical spa features two minibars offering different normal and lemon water, detox tea, and nourishing broths, ensuring optimal hydration throughout one's wellness journey. The guests can use the private beach, indoor pool, sauna, steam bath, and the gym throughout their stay.

The Chenot Method® is our practical framework for resetting and promoting health. In short, it is designed to enable one to stay fit and healthy for as long as possible. Centred around the concept of detoxification, the goal is to support your body’s natural healing mechanisms to repair and rejuvenate from within, future-proofing it from age-related diseases and restoring it to a state of youthful vigour and functionality. 

The method combines the principles of traditional Chinese medicine with the latest scientific discoveries in Western medicine. The Chenot Method® is unique in that it combines energetic, physical, and emotional stimuli and transmits them together to the body, which then develops its own internal medicine. 

The charming turn-of-the-century Palace and new contemporary building offer 95 exceptional rooms and suites, all elegantly furnished with stunning views of Lake Lucerne and Mount Rigi. All interiors have been thoughtfully designed to support relaxation and rejuvenation in harmony with the surrounding nature.
