WW: What Foods and Drinks Don’t Break a Fast & What Do

No doubt about it, fasting is the newest diet trend, but with good reason – it actually works!

However, there’s a lot of grey area and discrepancies when it comes to what foods are acceptable while fasting…

That’s why on today’s #CabralConcept 1965 I’d like to break down what foods and drinks don’t break a fast and what popular foods and drinks do – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought in the comments below!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Does it Have Calories?

If it has calories it most likely breaks your fast (at least for a temporary period of time). This means fat in your coffee in the morning still breaks a fast (sorry ; )

2. Does it Have Carbs?

High glycemic carbs (nonvegetable and fiber) above about 8g can increase blood sugar and will most likely trigger an insulin release stopping your fast.

3. Is it Liquid?

Liquid is a curious one since if it is low in calories the liquid will be digested quickly and may have little effect on your state of autophagy. More research on this is being done every few months so stay tuned!
