Schroth-Cure

Schroth-Cure

The farmer and waggoner Johann Schroth developed the Schroth-Cure about 200 years ago in order to heal his knee injury.

The Schroth-Cure is based on the daily use of a sudorific cure pack (cold and damp, heat retention pack), which is meant to assist in the excretion of metabolic waste products.

There are dry days and drinking days during the Schroth-Cure which force the body to cleanse itself. The idea behind this is that the body acts like a sponge, in which is "soaks and wrings". There are 3 dry days a week in which only 125ml of wine wine (or teas and juices) are to be consumed. Wine is meant to improve blood circulation during the Schroth-Cure and it also stimulates excretion to take place through the kidneys .

Evaluation of the Schroth-Cure

• Less than 1.000 kcal are consumed daily during the Schroth-Cure.  This almost guarantees a yo-yo effect once the diet is over.

• The Schroth-Cure was intended to treat illnesses not to lose weight.
• The recommended amount of fluid is not enough.
• The mentioned metabolic waste products have not been scientifically proven.
• A transformation of eating habits is not one of the targets of the Schroth-Cure.
• Many doctors consider the Schroth-Cure to be risky and are only to be done under the supervision of your GP.
