Fasting for autophagy: What breaks the fast?

I am currentlty fasting 72h for autophagy. I am unsure about which of the following will break the autophagy and which are allowed:

  1. Black Coffee

  2. Tea

  3. Zero Sugar Sodas

  4. Creatine (pure creatine monohydrate, nothing else on the label)

  5. Supplement pills (What ingredients are taboo?)

  6. Electrolyte pills (mine say they contain: magnesium, calcium, potassium, vitamin D and vitamin B6, does that work?)

Thank you for your answers!

Have at it, but just be aware that studies relating to this are on animals, and as such, the human benefits are only theoretical at this point as far as I am aware. If you have newer research I’d be interested in a link to it though.

I’m not saying don’t do it. I’m just suggesting not over-expecting any potential benefits of this.

In any case, best of luck with your goal.
