Hi, will sugar free energy drinks mess up my omad? I drink black coffee and lemon water. Energy drinks are super convenient but I know they aren’t great. Anyway I don’t care if you hate them. I just want to know if they will butcher fasting or raise insulin high and negate what I’m doing or are they fairly safe? Thanks!
My opinion is zero calories is zero calories. Calories break my fast. Nothing else.
Best thing to do is to see how it feels for you. Be willing to do some experiments. Does artificial sugar spike your insulin? There is a debate about this, but at the end of the day what matters is how you feel.
Try beverages you want to try, and simply pay attention to how you feel. They might trigger hunger, they might sate it. They might have no effect on your hunger level. Only you can know for you. Everyone is different.
