During a fast, you can typically drink beverages that are calorie-free, such as:
- Water: Plain or sparkling water is the most common choice. You can add flavor with fresh lime, lemon, or a splash of sugar-free juice.
- Coffee: Black coffee is generally considered acceptable during fasting. However, avoid adding sugar or cream as these add calories.
- Tea: Unsweetened tea, such as black tea, green tea, or herbal tea, is another good option.
- Bone broth: Bone broth, though it contains some calories, is generally considered a low-calorie option and may be acceptable during a fast.
It is important to note that the specific drinks you can have during a fast may vary depending on the type of fast you are following. If you have any concerns, consult with your doctor or a registered dietitian.
