What Breaks a Fast and What Does NOT Break a Fast - The Official Video - Thomas DeLauer
So many people have asked the awesome questions about specific foods breaking a fast or not breaking a fast, so I figured, what the heck, why don't I just lay it out for you. I'm going to list out foods that are fasting-safe, or should I say drinks, and things that are fasting-safe. But, then I'm going to list out things that are no-gos, things that will definitely break a fast. I'm going to give you a little bit of the science, too. Then I'm going to talk about the gray area. What I mean by gray area is there are going to be things that may or may not break a fast. It's still undecided. The jury is still out. I'll give you my honest opinion on it, so you can take it for what it's worth.
But first off, let's go ahead and let's talk about a couple of things that are good to go while you're fasting. First and foremost, we know that good, old-fashioned H2O is good to go. Unless you're doing a dry fast, water is not going to cause a problem. You're good to go. Kind of an obvious one. The next one I want to talk about, green tea. Very powerful, that epigallocatechin-3-gallate, that EGCG, is really powerful. Allows your body to mobilize fats quite a bit better, so it's a very good thing to be drinking while you're fasting. Then, we've got coffee, of course. Coffee will not break a fast as long as it's black. Totally good to go. Again, the caffeine mobilizing fatty acids. You're good there. It's going to help expedite the process of fasting. It's going to help expedite glycogen removal, or should I say, storage, that the carbs and the glycogen and the glucose isn't in your bloodstream anymore. It goes into the muscles. We definitely want that, so that's powerful.
Here's a kind of a weird one. It's going to be most teas, black, green, or whatever, but I have to say this now, certain herbal teas with fruit. You see some herbal teas out there, the have little chunks of apple, they have little chunks of berries that are dehydrated. You're getting the fructose from those fruits, so I would highly recommend staying away from those. That's a no-go.
So then, back to the fasting-safe, now we've got different sodas that I want to talk about. Zevia, for one, I've talked about this in a video. That's a soda that's sweetened with Stevia, so you're good to go there. And, as much as I hate to say this, I'm going to go on the record by saying I don't think that aspartame is good. I don't think it's healthy, but a lot of people ask. Diet Coke, diet sodas, you're going to be okay. Aspartame doesn't technically break a fast. So, you're okay there. I just don't think it's the best thing to do, but I know that a lot of you are wondering that, so I'm going to go ahead and say it.
When we look at any kind of carbonated beverage, you're usually good to go, so I'm just going to say carbonated water, carbonated H2O, sparkling beverages, things like that. People also always ask about vaping, because there's oil, and you're ingesting the vape. Does vaping break a fast? Generally, no. You're not swallowing the oil, you're inhaling it. What I will say is that vape, the nicotine that is usually in vape, just like smoking, affects your electron transport chain. It affects NADH. That's why you get a high from it. That's why you get a buzz. The jury is still a little bit out on whether not not nicotine technically would constitute breaking a fast, but for the sake of the metabolic function of a fast, you're okay.
I'm going to leave this here for now. There might be one or two more that I add, but I want to start going over the things that will break a fast. I already talked about herbal teas that have fruit in them. Now, the big one, guys. MCT oil and powder. I love that stuff and it's great for keto, but it does break a fast. There's still eight calories per gram. Unlike most fats that are nine calories per gram, MCTs only have eight. It's a little bit different. They still are digested. They still elicit a metabolic response. It's still food. It's still calories. If you have a couple of tablespoons of MCT oil, you're still looking at a couple hundred calories. That's definitely not fasting, okay? So, MCT oil does. So does coconut oil. Same kind of thing. You've got to be careful there.

@ThomasDeLauer Since I am only few months short from turning 50years old replaying your videos to understand the awesome science and common sense info on your videos over a month has improved body/mind health, energy and body shape. That being said a couple of questions: since I learned from your videos that is after 16 hours that fasting give over the top life-changing results and, also from your videos, you explain that instead of eating soon post workout you find that eating a while longer after physical exercise is the best, I am starting to workout at night to break my fast around 11am the next day; am I okay in following these methods? and last, if I understood one of your videos correctly before eating lunch with a little carb in it, you recommend to have a little bit of fat without carb so that the body re-start turning fat into energy rather than storing it, is that right? and with the bone broth alone am I getting that fat to break my fast with and a hour later then have the meal with some carbs in it; correct? I hope you don't mind me squeezing in like 3 questions in one comment.
What about Pickles?
What about l carnitine?????
Does “no sugar” energy drinks break a fast? Ultra Monsters, AlaniNu’s, etc?
Do I trust the guy who lost 100 lbs and is ripped af? Or do I trust the know-it-alls in the comment section? hmmm
Lol agree
Cory Cool Dangerous Agee
Comments for sure
Lol thats a damn good point!
🤔 hmm that’s a hard one lol
Thanks Tom. I'm doing keto again this year and really doing it properly thanks to all of your help. I'm on week 5 of Keto and oh my god it is working. My weight isn't moving on the scales yet but I have dropped a seize in clothes already. I only follow you and it's working. I was unsure about stevia. Thanks so much for all your amazing videos. I've been watching you for two years now. Keep doing your amazing videos.
Thomas, thank you for all you do on YT !!! I’m getting back to fasting and getting into keto…vegan keto actually. I’m a vegan for 6 years but I was getting very confused and never knew what I really should eat. Keto is new to me but I love it so far…I’m learning sooooo much from you !! Your passion for healthy body is very contagious!! Please keep up the fantastic work that you do. Don’t get discourage by any mean comments…sending you and your family hugs and lots of love 💜🌺💜🌸
To answer your question: yes, eating dog does break a fast
Damn it 🤦🏾♀️
That god someone cleared that up for me he never touched on that at all!
Good old kagogi.
He does not say anything about eating the dog
Does melatonin break a fast ?
Could you please make a more in-depth video about which vitamins, minerals, and amino acids break a fast? Also, which ones would have to be taken during one's eating phase versus which ones are okay to take during one's fast?
The more I listen to Thomas the more I like and agree with his teachings. This guys thinking aligns with my feelings on fasting but he adds for me an educated well taught understanding as to why I feel these suggestions and recommendations are best for fasting.
I really appreciate this guys knowledge and his presentation to explain and inform!
Thank you Thomas!
It all makes perfect sense to me 👍🏼
Cool to see that Weedborn has new products.
Thank youuuuuu! So helpful! I'm on day 4 of a fast and have been having acv, black coffee and green tea. Good to know that I'm not ruining the fast :)
Incredibly informative. I had several questions and stumbled across your video. Your explanations are concise and I feel more empowered in the decisions I'm making during my IF. Thank you!
Thank you SO MUCH Thomas! You are really helping me improve my diet.
as a biochem/bio-science major I appreciate this info being consolidated into a concise video so I don't have to go all over the place looking for it. Citations would be awesome though, but I am a little obsessive. Thanks again!
The most knowledgable person ive ever seen on fasting and health, and very easily understandable teaching! Thank you bro!
Exodarion I appreciate that!! Thank you for tuning in!
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial what about vanilla extract? Like a couple drops in coffee. Does that break a fast. YOURE AWESOME & INFORMATIVE BTW!!!!
Thank you so much Tom for the info. I'm glad you straightened it out concerning MCT oil, coconut oil, bullet proof etc. now I can really hone in on my IF.
Thank you very much for this easy to follow,practical information. Much appreciated 🙏🏻🌷
I love his intelligence, speech and positive vibes. Such a well-educated man sharing his knowledge with us. I appreciate ❤
This was golden! I was using collagen in my black coffee after 3 weeks of IF and my weight loss slowed and I couldnt figure out what it was. Thanks!
Christian James + so how do you incorporate your collagen now? I need to know cuz I take it for my knee tendons...
Dianne Oehman I will now take it only on refeed days. :) Not daily in my coffee. :)
Christian James + Oh...wow!...you do some serious fasting! I'm thrilled if I'm able to do one meal a day!....I wish I had that fortitude!👍🏼
Finally, CBD oil and marijuana was mentioned in relation to fasting, thanks 🙏
So vaping marijuana won't break a fast?
Marijuana gives you the the munchies
Bummer! I was beside myself of hunger yesterday so i made some Coconut coffee this morning to feel less hungry.(I do OMAD in the evening)
But it makes sense now why I am such a long time getting in to ketosis because I have drunken coconut coffee some days..
There is soo much to understand in the Keto diet! Thank god for UA-cam!
You're awesome, thank you for all your work. Keto changed my life and will change more in the future, super excited about it! 💯✨😊
Respect for not avoiding the sensitive subject of marijuana .
max hunter
I agree.
Now neuroscientist Tamas Horvath, of Yale University in New Haven, and colleagues report in Nature that nerve cells called pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons play a key role in this process. POMC had generally been thought to promote satiation, but Horvath's team found that POMC neurons in the brain release not just a hunger-suppressing hormone, but also one that promotes appetite.
Which hormone is secreted is regulated by a protein in the cells' mitochondria, structures that regulate energy levels. When the CB1 receptor is activated, this mitochondrial protein induces POMC to switch from secreting the substance that suppresses gorging to one that supresses it.
Both β-endorphin and α-MSH are in fact derived, via cleavage, from the same precursor protein-POMC, after which the neurons are named. For this reason, Horvath had suspected long ago that POMC neurons might both stimulate and suppress appetite. However, he dropped this early theory after an abundance of experimental evidence suggested otherwise. Indeed, even when β-endorphin itself is deleted from POMC neurons in mice, said Cone, you get “animals that are hyperphagic and obese.”
I think an argument can be made that, as long as one can overcome the munchies, smoking marijuana should actual help fasting. If your body is saying it is hungry then wouldn't it consume what is available?
max hunter not sensitive anymore, it’s 2018.
Vicious Cycle You'd be surprised.
More videos like this one please.
Thank you for including cannabis in this discussion! As the industry evolves, so does the science, esp. learning exactly what makes us feel the way we do. Terpenes are found in ALL plants, and they are specifically responsible for feelings of euphoria, energy, relaxation, hunger, etc., aaand specific ones have even been known to suppress appetite. As a post-bacc Neurobiology labrat whom joined the professional side of cannabis a few years ago, it really is amazing to finally see the science behind this force of a plant.
Caution on edibles:. Our bodies breakdown and digest the endocannabinoids in MJ much more completely than smoking/vaping, and take much longer to kick in. Exercise restraint and moderation when consuming. Remember, you can always eat more, but you can't eat less. Also exercise caution when medicating with concentrates- oil, distillate, vape, wax, etc: these are 'concentrated' mediums of THC, producing a stronger effect. I personally recommend flower to start, seeing as how you get the full spectrum benefits of the plant rather than THC alone.
I could go on, but by all means if anyone sees this and has questions, don't hesitate! =)
Hey there. Thanks for all your great videos.
I think the dog on the right breaks a fast...
his right or the viewers right?! :D
I don't think it matters what dog you eat, they would both break a fast.
Depends on how fast the dogs are.
Blake Bauman it's cleary the one on the left!
😂😂😂
Protein powder grey area? I think that was meant for No-Go.
Definetly! I think it was just a mistake he didn´t notice at the moment.
Protein will break Autophagy.
He did say they will definitely break the fast, but he mistakenly wrote it on the grey area group.
yea that definitely breaks a fast
he wouldnt fight about it just stay behind the screen
Excellent video..answered so many questions 😊
Great information! Thank you so much.
Very informative - thanks Thomas!
Robin Hunuki thanks for watching!
Breakfast will break a fast.
andyottito1 no sh*t
Really fast 😋
andyottito1 Cause it's literally break-fast!
You idios, anyottito was just kidding around. Sheesh.
andyottito1 haha hence where the name came from
Excellent and important video! thank you!
very informative video. thanks for making it!
❤️❤️Thomas Delauer❤️❤️
Thomas: It's been a year since this video, any new research to add or modify your findings from a year ago? I enjoy your videos, you're concise and and very thorough.
Thank you!! Can you have a bit of honey in the tea?? And what about juice of ginger or even powder with lemon for tea and what about mint tea and herb teas like turmeric, cinnamon powders strained for tea. I truly look forward to hearing from you!!
Hey Tom thanks for these videos. I'd love to know whether fresh ginger steeped in hot water breaks a fast. Also if liquorice and peppermint tea breaks a fast.
Hahah was gonna ask you about weed before the video even ended but then I realized I should watch the rest and of course you covered it.
Good video, really informative. Thanks :)
Thank you so much for this. I've watched a lot of these "does it break a fast" videos and I think that this one by far is the clearest and most concise. I really appreciate all that you do. You're videos are very helpful and I think it's generous of you to take the time to research and create them for our benefit. Also, I adore your dogs! They're absolutely beautiful. Australian Shepherds?
I really like your content. Thank you so much!
I have watched many other people's channels related to Raw Vegan, Carnivore, Raw fruit. It would be good to see a live study of each of these people, each one talks about how good they feel, but it would be good to see how their brain is working, how is their blood sugar, how is their Gut microbiota. It seems that the body adapts to food that is not processed. Think about it! You are a trustworthy person.
Oh wow he actually knows about the ETC i trust this guy!
What about meds? Like aspirin or antibiotics?
How about fresh ginger steeped in hot water, then strained. Does that break a fast?
Thanks. I am into first day fast very helpful.
Hello Thomas! I've been following and watching your videos for quite a while and I've decided to try intermittent fasting. I was wondering since lemon is ok, and water is ok, would it be ok to drink lemon water through out the fast as a regular drink? Or will the constant supply of lemon water break my fast? I know you covered just a tablespoon of lemon juice, but I'm asking about sliced lemon in water throughout the fasting period
Good video as always dude, very informative, felt a bit guilty for having a Diet Coke last night when I was in my fast but now you’ve put my mind at ease a bit. Been watching for quite a while now but I’ve only started to truly implement your methods over the past ten weeks. I’ve lost 12.8Kg’s so far. And I’d just like to say thanks Thomas for all the awesome videos. Take care, Craig.
Lol what are you doing writing on Jeff Cavalier’s chalkboard? ❤️
This was extremely helpful thank you
I still have a question does l -carnitIne does break a fast?
Thank you for adding MJ & CBD! 🖤
As a health and wellness professional I take my hat off to you for providing good information to the people 🤝
Thank you Thomas!! I have a question though,
What pre workout supplement you would recommend if you are fasting and in Keto ?
Thanks!
Just found your channel and subbed. You may not come back to old videos but I'm just starting to get into water fasting. The question I had is do electrolytes break a fast?
Great video! How about medicin? For ex. bloodpressure medicin. I use and take it in the morning.
This was very helpful as I just started doing 16/8 fasting. 2 questions please" 1.) does Advil/ibuprofen break a fast? 2.) I like to fruit infuse my water. So lemon slices or whole strawberries into an infuser water bottle. Will that break a fast? I'm guessing lemons no, strawberries yes because of the chance I might drink a piece of one. Thank you!
Strawberries will break a fast
Thanks Thomas Gratitude 🙏 Question: What about Vitamins?
@ThomasDeLauer, when talking about the increase in insulin sensitivity that occurs with intermittent fasting, is that something that increases permanently, or is it only (or mostly) something to consider when breaking a fast? More specifically, should you avoid eating carbs+fats at the same time for good, or is it mainly something to avoid when breaking a fast?
Is there a way to consume "too much" stevia while fasting?
I am from the south and sweet tea runs through my veins. I used to make a 1 gallon jug of sweet tea, with 1.25 cups of sugar in it. Needless to say it was quite sweet, but not like McDonalds sweet tea, sweet.
I just made my first gallon of tea with stevia. using about 1.25 teaspoons for the whole gallon. Will drinking a few glasses of this in a night have any adverse effects?
I also just bought (based on your videos) some Zevia organic tea. Am I safe to drink this while fasting? Should I only consume 1 can? or is 2 cans throughout the day ok?
Thanks so much!
The dogs look so done with you 😂
Black ☕ tea 🍵 avc pink salt for sodium dont forget that helps alot when fasting this has helped me so much.
Be careful with black tea, If you drink too much it can cause kidney stones - the only caffeinated tea that wont is green tea
Dr Berg said creamer, mct oil and bp coffee don’t break a fast.
Superb material, presentation & information. I especially like how you make it real by going to "my store" and very knowledgeably show me how to shop. My only recommendation would be to use professionally printed lists instead of the "cardboard & crayon" graphics (dry erase boards). Which would bring it up to the professional level of the other aspects of your videos. (Also, run the numbers, how many thousands of people wait and watch while you write...how many thousands of man-hours are wasted?) I'm very grateful for your videos, none the less!
Curious about essential oils and if they trigger an insulin response? I’m new to intermittent fasting and based on what I’ve researched so far, am thinking citrus oils would actually be helpful? Thank you for your time and great video!
I have the same question. I ingest 1-2 drops in 40 oz water during my fasted state. Does it affect insulin levels/break a fast?
Love watching your videos, you upload great content. What sugar free gum would you recommend for fasting. I am a weirdo about fresh breath and work around other people. Thanks for any insight you have.
I hate to tell ya, but chewing breaks a fast. Brush teeth or mouthwash
Huh, my 5th grade teacher was already doing IF and I never noticed. When he retired the year after, he was gifted an entire truck of Pepsi since he bought and drank so much of it over his decades of teaching. He was just past 60 years old back then and was still very active, running alongside some of the kids during track and field as well, and only now do I realize why he drank the white Pepsi can in the morning and the blue Pepsi can in the afternoon.
Hey great video as usual, I have a question. You mention in this video that erythriol will break a fast but the green matcha tea you recommend uses that as it’s sweetener. Is erythritol based Ujida tea ok while fasting?
THE LEFT ONE BREAKS THE FAST. JUST KIDDING. SO FREAKING CUTE YOUR TWO DOGS😍😍
I heard coffee can raise insulin which makes the fat burning in fasting slower can you do a video on that and perhaps measure your blood level before and after drinking plain coffee? Thanks for the vid btw🤗💖
sara c hmm I’ve always heard caffeine increase fight/ flight and can become a performance enhancer because it releases FFAs for energy. Not sure how fasting changes this
Black coffee doesn't raise insulin, it raises cortisol, so technically it doesn't break your fast. Cortisol and Insulin are the 2 hormones that store fat & prevent fat burning. That's why there's a lot of people who recommend water first thing in the morning and waiting for breakfast to have your coffee.
ua-cam.com/video/iAv-1UHHjeg/v-deo.html
If cortisol increases with coffee intake, wouldn’t it be counterproductive to drink? I thought cortisol inhibits fat loss.
Thank you for mentioning exegenous ketones. I was taking liquid one in morning thinking it would help me burn. So wrong. Thanks Thomas.
Thanks very much!
Does plain Cocoa power unsweetened/no cream in hot water or in black coffee break a fast?
Thanks, thanks, thanks
María José Salazar García thank you for watching!
Hi Thomas, what about CLA and fat burner metabolism supplements? Thank you for your knowledge!
CLA is fat, so yes that breaks a fast.
good info thanks
What about gelatin collagen powder? Thank you!
But what about tide pods?!?!
Kidding, love these videos. Keep 'em coming!
Does Xyla sweetner break a fast? Thanks!
If it's a teenager that's doing tide pods, then they're not breaking a fast.
Does gum break fast? Stevia sweetened?
I started making a tea recipe for inflammation and many other health benefits to include in my OMAD (23:1) keto diet for my fasting period. Just 3 days into it (already getting frustrated with all the calculations involved, especially because I haven't quite figured out my intake numbers for protein calories & fat so I don't know if I'm doing this right so far). Tea calls for pineapple skin from a whole pineapple with just very little pineapple "meat" on the skin, arnica, chamomile, cinnamon, ginger, tumeric, cayenne pepper, & ACV. Will this break my fast?? Sedentary 33 yr old female, 5'1, 269 lb.
I have a question about coconut water as I usually have it before and during my weight training mixed with water (50/50) so would like to know if coconut water is a go OR a no go?
Ok a few questions, diet soda specifically diet coke doesn't effect insulin? Because I hear from Dr. Fung first soda can cause a insulin spike greater then sugar.
Second the items in your ok list won't effect me achieving autophagy?
Third is a friend started a water fast but with coconut water included and from anything I read coconut water has calories. So what do you think.
Right now I do water fasts and if it's long fasts a week or more I do a dry fast during a water fast of a day. Thanks!
Can you list pre workout brands that we can buy
Thanks!
Great information video. Does Matcha break a fast? (No sugar added) just matcha powder and water. Cheers
The 1st thing needed is a clear definition of a fast. It seems there are now thousands of things people refer to as a fast.
It's like when you need a blood test and they tell you to fast. Nothing but water is allowed. That is a true fast.
Linda L a true fast is a og with no water either
at least 60mph
Not eating
Thanks Thomas
Maybe better do a pop-up in the video regarding the error of putting Protein Powder in the grey area🙃
I was just going to ask about that, I mean he does say that it breaks a fast, and honestly it IS obvious, but seeing how he put it on the gray area made me wonder.
@thomasdelauer....question, I'm starting a water fast but will also include black coffee, green and black tea, lemons, with my ACV. I guess my question is will L-carnitine break a fast? I usually take 3 tablespoons each day. Morning, afternoon and night. Thanks!! Hopefully I'll hear back from you!
Noo, there's dextrose in my magnesium supplement! I took a tablet both days I've been fasting and still whacked off 2 lbs. Should I keep taking it? How will this affect autophagy?
Dietsoda's do increase insulin. A study was done in men harvesting sugar canes. Some got coke, some got dietcoke. Both groups harvested more sugar canes after the drink, but the latter group had a major crash and got less productive. The theory behind it is that the pancreas starts releasing insulin as soon as the sugary taste is noted. The insuline lowers the (low) present bloodsugar because the body is expecting a replenishment. When the expected sugar doesnt come in, bloodsugar has crashed which causes fatigue and cravings. You could say that this does not affect the fast as long as you withstand your cravings, but it does effect the way the body reacts. The increase in glucose causes an initial decrease in glucagon which is the hormone that helps mobilize fatty acids and glycogen. Afterwards, glucagon will spike due to the low blood sugar, but you end up feeling pretty bad in between. This being said; Isn't it better not to drink dietsoda's?
And another question: I dont like coffee so i take caffeine in pillform. It has a gelatine capsule. Does 1 really break the fast? If i take the capsule at 12, when i break my fast, i wont be able to sleep.
so, what about sucralose and stevia then? would it cause the same reaction because they are sweet?
@@KittyLovesGlover I'd say yes.
There are lots of new studies coming out that shows the artificial sweeteners kills different types of gut bacterias, and they are thinking that is responsible for the reason why people who consume diet things don't loose weight.
When I drank diet soda, I found it made me more hungry and tempted to eat. So I would avoid them.
What about, vitamin supplements, calcium tablets and omega 3 oil ? also does anyone have a recommendation for a preworkout that doesn't break fasting?
Raymond Williams oil I think definitely would break a fast/ not sure about vitamins and calcium I think it could all just depend on the ingredients
Awesome video thank u so much for the info can I drink my bcaa during my eating window or is that still a no go
Hi, thank you for the video. Does glycerol break a fast? It's in my L Carnitine liquid and I was hoping to take it to burn more fats while fasting. Thank you.
Shouldn’t the protein powder be in the no-go column? Like you said, it definitely breaks a fast cause it’s still food.
I know black coffee is okay, but I look at nutrition labels of some coffees and they say there are calories in it. For example Starbucks cold brew says its 15 calories when the only ingredients are coffee beans and water. And Stok unsweetened black coffee I buy in the grocery store says it’s 10 calories. Any clarification would help.
I've been reading that caffeine can trigger insulin so I'd probably check first
Hi Thomas,
Does slippery elm break a fast? I’ve got chronic gastritis so coffee and black tea rip my stomach up, but slippery elm does miracles for soothing my tum...
What about cinnamon powder? Adding a dash with my coffee in the morning typically less than a teaspoon worth
Most spices and herbs are fine on a fast. Cinnamon is fine
Added benefit .. cinnamon can help with insulin resistance..
Thomas you need to be on a Joe Rogan podcast
YES. I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
Rip joe rogan
No, a different form of fasting on the podcast and not about inducing autophagy.
Doesn't he just have weird alt-righters on these days?
S11N Yas!
When he began the video talking about the dogs, I was like what?😂
Aspartame (diet soda) is an amino acid so while it is non-caloric it will likely inhibit autophagy if that is one of the reasons you’re doing a longer fast- fasting has actually help me rid myself of my diet soda addiction
Hello mr DeLauer I use to drink raw unsweetened cocoa (just like unsweetened black coffee). I wonder if that breaks a fast, since it is very low carb per teaspoon. Thank you for your videos and researches
Can you please discuss what vitamins will or will not break a fast ???????
vitamins will not....by this i mean if you are on vitamin tabs
Well... two weeks in and my green tea with blueberry has to go. Dammit, I was really enjoying it.
Thank you so much for your work! Does Monk Fruit break a fast? And, how many servings?
I have same exact question, for Monk Fruit,
i was reaallly wanting to know about sucralose. i wanted something that wasnt water, and this carbonated drink had nothing but sucralose and potassium. good to hear its ok
