Buff GourMed – When healing cuisine meets gourmet art
A culinary revolution is unfolding at the heart of the exclusive Buff Medical Resort on Lake Constance: under the direction of head chef Marcus Zillmann, Buff GourMed combines medically sound nutritional concepts with the highest culinary artistry. A symbiosis that proves that health and pleasure need not be opposites.
The philosophy: Healing cuisine at star level
The gastronomic vision of the Buff Medical Resort goes far beyond what one might understand by ‘diet food’ or ‘healing food’. Head chef Marcus Zillmann has made it his mission to combine the strict principles of the F.X. Mayr nutritional theory with the demands of discerning palates. The result is a cuisine that heals the body while simultaneously enchanting the senses.
‘Health begins in the gut’ – this realisation forms the foundation of the culinary philosophy at the Buff Medical Resort. The F.X. Mayr therapy, known for its intestine-regenerating, detoxifying and purifying effects, is dressed in a completely new guise here: that of top-class gastronomy.
Marcus Zillmann: The architect of taste
As head chef at the Buff Medical Resort, Marcus Zillmann combines years of experience in top gastronomy with a deep understanding of nutritional physiology. His creations are the result of close collaboration with the resort’s medical specialists and reflect his talent for conjuring up true culinary delights from strict nutritional guidelines.
Zillmann’s cuisine is characterised by precision, creativity and a deep understanding of the effects of food on the body. He is a master at combining the therapeutic aspects of nutrition with the highest culinary standards.
From the region to the plate: excellence through quality
The basis of any exceptional cuisine is outstanding ingredients. At the Buff Medical Resort, the choice of products is more than a question of flavour – it is part of the therapeutic concept.
‘Our kitchen only uses carefully selected, fresh and seasonal ingredients for the dishes we serve you. Hand-picked, regional, sustainable. And masterfully prepared,’ explains the resort team. The products are mainly sourced from the Lake Constance region and are organic. The range is complemented by selected top-quality products from all over the world.

Customised nutrition: when medicine and the art of cooking merge
What sets Buff GourMed apart is its individualised approach. Each guest receives a customised nutrition plan based on precise medical diagnoses. In close consultation with the resort’s medical specialists, chef Zillmann creates dishes that are precisely tailored to individual needs and health goals.
This collaboration between medical expertise and culinary skill results in dishes that not only delight the palate, but also specifically support recovery and revitalisation processes. Every meal thus becomes a therapeutic measure that nourishes, relieves and regenerates the body – without sacrificing enjoyment.
The art of conscious enjoyment
At the Buff Medical Resort, eating becomes a meaningful ritual. The restaurant areas are designed to offer a ‘perfect balance of tranquillity and inspiration, distance and closeness’. Every guest finds their ideal place to consciously enjoy their meal.
This mindfulness when eating is no coincidence, but part of the therapeutic concept. Because how we eat is just as important as what we eat. The atmosphere, ambience and even the table setting are designed to turn the dining experience into a moment of calm and awareness – a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and an opportunity to reconnect with your own body.
Buff GourMed: When fasting becomes a pleasure
What is particularly remarkable is how Marcus Zillmann and his team transform fasting into a culinary experience. Under the Buff GourMed concept, the resort combines ‘healing and fasting cuisine at gourmet level’. The top chefs create dishes that ‘offer culinary depth and indulge the taste buds’ despite the restrictions of a fasting cure.
This art of creating maximum enjoyment from a few, carefully selected ingredients is the hallmark of Buff GourMed cuisine. Even during an intensive F.X. Mayr cure – on the contrary: the reduction and concentration on the essentials sharpens the senses and creates new flavour experiences.
A holistic experience for all the senses
The food served at the Buff Medical Resort is more than just nourishment – it is both medicine and pleasure. Every dish tells a story of healing, regeneration and joie de vivre. It is an expression of the holistic understanding of health that permeates the entire resort.
Under the direction of chef Marcus Zillmann, therapeutic nutrition is experiencing a renaissance. In his hands, even the strictest fasting cuisine becomes a sensual experience that regenerates the body and nourishes the soul. Buff GourMed stands for a new dimension of health-conscious cuisine – one in which medicine, science and the art of cookery merge into a harmonious whole.
In a world where health and pleasure are often seen as opposites, the Buff Medical Resort shows that one does not have to exclude the other. On the contrary: true health is created where all aspects of being human – including pleasure – are harmonised. The Buff GourMed cuisine is a shining example of this philosophy – a culinary concept that heals, nourishes and inspires.
