| | Water Fasting

Want to make sure I achieve autophagy. Is herbal tea (e.g., chamomile) ok or should I not risk it?

I drink lots of tea and coffee. What should I not consume so as not to risk stopping autophagy during fasting?

Answer

Hi, I am fasting myself and conveniently run a tea company (teapro). I suggest not adding any milks,, honey, sweetener or sugar and teas in general will not be risky. I wouldn’t recommend fruit tisanes either as could represent potential glucose.
