60 Hour Fasting Autophagy RUINED? (Diet Soda, Mio, & 0 Kal Powerade)

They all say 0 kals on the packages…

Although some say “0 calories - 2.5 servings” - isn’t this an indication there definitely is a low amount of calories in them?

Are these ruining the autophagy benefits of my 60 hour fasts?

Thanks!

Answer

My understanding is that autophagy can only occur if there is no insulin response. Might be worth diving into the literature to check, since even zero calorie or low calorie food and drinks may be triggering insulin and ruining the fast for your autophagy goal. Probably fine for weight loss though
