What can you Drink while Intermittent Fasting? (Fast Breakers 2024)

Intermittent fasting is a very powerful tool for human health. It may seem like a new fad but it is really very old. Humans have been using the healing powers of fasting for 1000's of years.

When you know what the goals of your fast are then you can decide what you will drink during your fast. What you can drink while intermittent fasting is a very good question, and you should know the answer. Some things are fine, and some will break your fast.

I want you to be able to use intermittent fasting to improve your health, and to fast properly. This video, and my other videos should do just that.

This video couldn't have come at a better time. I IF 16 hours daily. Down from about 270, but have stalled at 175 for about 3 weeks. Had been putting ginger in my fasting water, with a little monk fruit. Will switch to plain water with either pink Himalayan salt or ACV. Thanks, Dr. Berry; so glad I found your channel.

[flawedfabulous]

I only drink water, and I add ACV but that's it...I IF 5 days a week and water fast on the weekend. I'm off all diabetes meds and off blood pressure meds... fasting is the best gift you can give your body...

[jenniferrhoades]

I fast every day 20/4 during the week. Weekends 16/8 thank you Dr.Berry🥰💯down 70lbs on my keto journey as well. 40 lbs to go!

[yupengzhao]

Salt water works wonders for me. I also put a small lump of Himalayan pink salt under my tongue when I’m hungry. Something about it just makes my brain think I’ve eaten. 😁

[bradyray]

I’m starting keto today. I’m so excited to get my health back and lose weight. Ready to be healthy again

[gloriagray]

Thanks now I know why I'm stalled, stevia in my fasting coffee. I hope this starts the ball rolling again. Started at 348 down to 254 in 8 months. Loving this lifestyle.

[susanbrock]

Dr. Berry! I have to tell you that out of all the videos that I have watched about Keto, yours have been the most informative and have really helped me on my journey. I have lost over 20 pounds in two months and I have never felt better. I turn 59 this year but I feel like I’m in my 30s! You rock dude!

[galinaantonovala]

I drink black coffee with ghee and sea salt in the morning for breakfast! It’s amazing! Kills cravings too!

[polkcellar]

Thanks for the clarification Dr. Berry. I'm interested in the benefits of autophagy. In four months I've lost 27 pounds with IF and keto and I'm no longer obese! This info will clean up my fasting routine. You are changing lives Dr Berry!! If only I had known this years sooner. I believe I would have avoided my autoimmunity issues that culminated in obesity, hashimotos, fibroids, multiple cancer surgeries and a lousy neurological diagnosis. Stay well friends!

You can build muscle and burn fat by intermittent fasting and working out as part of your daily regimen.

[kristinescutaro]

Hot water with a couple of lemon drops with a dash of cayenne pepper. That kick really wakes me up in the morning

[bjgregory]

I've been fasting on and off since January. My blood insulin level is way too high. UGH. Now I know why!!! Sweetener in my coffee and in my tea! AND that's why my weight loss has been at a crawl for months. Thank you!!!

[Pattskee]

Disaster pants! Love you man, you are so helpful to so many.

[MISSPHOTOGENICBABY]

Drinking pickle juice right now and WOW! I feel so much better! My head was killing me 😩! Less than 4 hours left in my 24hr fast and my body was screaming for salt! 🙌🏾💖

[anthonycook]

Something else I can do to help me through the fasting window is go for a walk down my very steep 350 metre driveway. When I get back up the top eating is the last thing on my mind.

[GDixon-chyl]

I've been drinking pickle juice for decades. My Granny taught me. ❤️

[ashleymalamute]

I've stopped putting cream in my bulletproof coffee and now just use a tablespoon of butter and MCT oil. I'm going to ween those two down to a teaspoon of each.
I must say the secret to bulletproof coffee is the blending process. It gives the coffee a beautiful crema and binds the ingredients together for hours.

Thank You Dr Berry! Because of your videos, I have finally found a diet that is satisfying and sustainable! KETO/CARNIVORE has helped me feel full, but still lose weight! I'm in for the long term! I've lost 28 lbs in about 7 weeks, with 0 hunger! I'm 5'8, beginning weight was 272. Today I'm 243, and I can't begin to thank you enough! I'm 57 years old, no high blood pressure, no diabetes, so I have been following your recommendations and I am feeling better and the weight is rolling off almost effortlessly! I bought your book and I am amazed at how accurate your information is! My Dr. is a bit skeptical of all this, and so was I in the beginning, but facts are facts and I will continue this diet the rest of my life! Thank you again and may you always be healthy and prosperous!

This is valuable information. I need to re-watch this video every few weeks. I have been fasting wrong. Plus I I am starting to feel better!

[thingsretiredpeopledo]

I drink ACV and water. It soothes hunger pangs and settles upset tummy. I love it!
