Fast Reset UK, a specialist Chinese fasting retreat business founded by Chloe Mould, has revealed a new retreat format for 2026 designed to make fasting more accessible while preserving its powerful health benefits.
Based on the traditional Chinese fasting method Bigu, Fast Reset UK hosts immersive retreats at Chloe’s Chislehurst residence in South East London. The original seven-day residential retreat is widely recognised for delivering a deep mind-body reset, allowing the digestive system to rest while supporting detoxification, improved sleep, clearer skin, enhanced energy, weight loss, improved immunity and reduced food cravings.
Modern science has helped validate these ancient practices. In 2016, Japanese scientist Mr Yoshinori Ohsumi received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of autophagy. His research showed that the body requires at least seven days to activate this internal repair mechanism, during which the body effectively becomes its own healing system, explaining the long-term benefits of extended fasting.
The new 2026 programme combines in-person and remote support. Participants will attend the retreat for an initial three-day stay before completing the final four days at home, with daily online guidance and check-ins from Chloe to ensure consistency, motivation and safety throughout the process.
“Fasting is the best way to keep your health; all the problems, the issues can be addressed. We encourage your body to heal itself,” said Chloe. “With this new service, you can arrive on a Friday, stay three days, and I teach you. Even when you go, you will be part of the online group and guided through the remaining four days.”
Chloe’s approach is informed by her own experience of fasting, having lost nearly 9kg in her first week. This transformation inspired her to dedicate her work to guiding others through fasting safely and effectively, helping them reset both physically and mentally.
