Hi all, while intermittent fasting, will drinking a diet gatorade or diet ice tea drink knock you out of fasting?

No click baits there or big words or promises. Just a dry review of the scientific evidence from an MD.
It depends on what your reason for fasting is. If it’s to lose weight, no. You’ll still lose weight even if you drink diet drinks. I did. If you’re fasting to cleanse your body of toxins or enter autophagy, diet drinks are really bad. Natural teas wouldn’t be so bad, unless you’re also trying to detox from caffeine (if not decaf).
