What can you Drink while Intermittent Fasting? (Fast Breakers 2024)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 січ 2019
- 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.
Thanks Tabania! We all have to keep making adjustments as we move towards the goal!
Fantastic! Nicely done! How long did it take you?
Yes,its amazing how the smallest thing can mess things up!but this is how we learn,I love fasting but still learning how my body behaves a year later!but its worth the journey❤️it helps me a lot.
Congrats, Tabania, how long did it take you to lose the weight, what is / was your eating plan, and what exercise do you do? Thanks!
What about Chia seeds in water to take with my multivitamin?
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...
Stacey Boudreau On your IF fasting how many hours do you fast?
This was my question, if adding a little ACV to water would break the fast. Sounded like it would not. Well done, Stacey.
I am off the diabetes meds, but not the blood pressure ones yet. I have to re-focus on IF w/out sugar or hwc. I have been at a stall. Congrats that's great you've been able to achieve that. I hope to say the same in the near future.
I do 20 hours and 4 hour eating window
Well done
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. 😁
Me too.
Wow, how much salt?
Salt under your tongue when you're hungry? Wow, I'll try it!
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!
That's great! Im finally back 85% from long covid, & desperate to lose the 60 lbs that piled on after 1/2020 cv.
Qus: did u go "hard keto/fasting" right away or slowly drop carbs over a cpl weeks?
And, with all your weight loss thru keto, is your skin "shrinking" too? Meaning no floppy arm/tummy skin? Thanks for your input, & congratulations!

I've been drinking pickle juice for decades. My Granny taught me. ❤️
You can build muscle and burn fat by intermittent fasting and working out as part of your daily regimen.
Hi Dr Berry! What do you think about the flavored waters without sweeteners...such as Dasani, Bubly, Perrier (grapefruit flavor is my favorite), St Croix? They contain "natural flavors" which are ambiguously defined. No sweeteners though like other brands. Thanks!
Nothing better than a fasted CrossFit workout
What about medicine such as thyroid medicine? Will that break my fast?
Dr. Berry
I realize that this may sound silly but does mouth wash or toothpaste break your fast?
When I brush does the amount of mouth wash or toothpaste that is ingested enough to break your fast.
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!
Can you share the plan that you follow? Thanks
JoJo, I don't know if you found the answer to your question but Dr. Berry has been carnivore for at least several months and prior to that keto.
@@JoJo-yp2hc I accidentally put a comment to you in the wrong place. I think it is above.
@@williamhull4031 Hi William, I'm actually looking into Keto at this time. :)
William Hull l
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.
Hot water with a couple of lemon drops with a dash of cayenne pepper. That kick really wakes me up in the morning
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.
C. L. Did you even watch the video? He is a doctor. I will take his advice over yours. So it is you that has no idea what you’re talking about.
Gloria Gray congratulations on your new lease on life you earned it 🎉
Fyi, each packet of Stevia contains appx 2 grams carbs. Not much but they add up.
Me too.. I use stevia everyday.. taking it out today
Impressive 👍
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! 🙌🏾💖
If your headache stopped it may be because the pickle juice broke your fast so you stopped detoxing. Sorry.
It's more likely that the sodium chloride in the pickle juice stopped the headache. Unless it was sweet pickles. Then the sugar probably did break her fast. But you lose salt when you go into ketosis. A half-teaspoon of salt, mixed with some water will often do the trick.
I drink hot tea to suppress my hunger. It works great!!!
@@anthonycook8703 your not eating foods so pickle juice isn't going to break your fast. If you go for soda it may hurt it.
@@disnalee pickle juice can have sugar, they were saying that would break their fast. Definitely cannot have sugar.
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!
I drink black coffee with ghee and sea salt in the morning for breakfast! It’s amazing! Kills cravings too!
Disaster pants! Love you man, you are so helpful to so many.
Love his "Southern" euphemisms 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
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!
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!!!
New England Journal of Medicine says coffee while intermittent fasting actually seems to encourage autophagy. I'm sure they did not mean you could have cream and sweeteners with it, but...
This sounds encouraging....although I don't particularly trust mainstream doctors, dietitians and magazines....once dr. Berry gets the truth of it....then I'll believe!
current dislikes are Jillian Michaels and all her friend
Scrolled back up to see 3 dislikes. Lol sounds about right. Jillian and all both of her friends.
Lol!
Haha she just wants to make money at the expense of people's health, no big deal!
OMG The count is now up to 20!
She's recruiting! Somebody stop her! AhahAhahaHahahahahA.........LOL XD
@@woodenslave yea well her video still has 10k dislikes soooooo...😂😂😂
Thanks for all your content, you are amazing and have actually inspired me to start my own vlog documenting my keto weight loss journey….. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the videos. My wife and I have been keto for a couple of year with great benefit. My brother is now trying to get on board with keto/ IF. This was a specific question he had. Just shared with him.
I love to see that the subscribers numbers to this awesome Dr. are going up day after day
I'm so glad I found your channel. You're the best! Thank you for the wealth of information you provide.
Just found your page while looking to improve my testosterone levels and overall health. Thank you for sharing all of this information! Mike
Hi there. I love your videos as they are very informative. I've been doing a 16/8 intermittent fast for about 3 weeks now. I eat between 12:00 noon to 8:00 pm. After that, I fast with water and at around 10:30 pm I have a cup of hot water with some freshly made lemon juice. (About 1 tbsp of lemon juice) and in the morning at around 10:30 am, I have a cup of lemon/ginger herbal tea with a bit of lemon juice. This works for me. I know I'm not supposed to eat bread and cereal but I do. After a long fast, I cannot stomach meat so I break my fast at noon with either cereal or a sandwich of some sort. At dinner time I have my meat and veggies. For me, meat once a day is enough. I did however lose 5 lbs. Thank you for your very informative videos.
Dr.Berry, thank you so much for wisdom & caring, we love your channel and your family!
OMG "disaster pants" how you made me laugh!
Me too!!
Yes sounds like a real ole country, down home, kinda fella.
This was my fav too!!
Amy Gumm Yes I love the disaster pants too! That was hysterical
Looked at the comments just to see who else enjoyed “disaster pants” !!! I laughed out loud and have a new phrase!!
I’m starting keto today. I’m so excited to get my health back and lose weight. Ready to be healthy again
Brilliantly explained. Glad I watched it. Thank you, Dr Berry.
Thank you Dr Berry! This is good to know! I’m so glad I found you this week. My husband and I are trying to get started on keto after many false starts. Honestly I’m intimidated by the whole thing but I’ve subscribed to your channel with notifications and I’ve subscribed to Karen Martel ‘s primal diet plan yesterday so I’m hoping to get started today! Gosh I didn’t know lemon in water would break my fast. I was doing lemon water for a long time thinking I was doing a good thing -so much conflicting information out there! I did “bullet proof coffee” for a while with collagen.
a small drop of lemon or lime is okay but not a whole lemon or lime juice. I love lemon water
Thank you for very clear, no-nonsense information. I am thinking for some time now to incorporate IF, but your videos made up my mind. When you mentioned the brain's response to something sweet, and also to chewing, i realized that i am a big culprit by chewing sugarfree gum... often during the day... and it seems that it has quite the opposite effect.
Hi doctor,I just found out. I have diabetes and I’m def obese and I am feeling like crap.I’m 54 and I’m so glad you showed up on my suggested channel to watch,I truly believe you are my miracle doctor,thank you,I am going to try. Everything. For a keto diet
Thank you for all the work you do in putting all these great and informative videos together.
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.
Stevia is out.I guess I'll just stick with water.
I am now going to stop putting heavy cream in my coffee and just use raw coconut butter
Definitely, just a small spoon of butter in my coffee every morning and Im good to go for almost the entire day.
Black coffee and water for me.
Thanks Dr! Very helpful advice!
Disaster pants, lol you kill me but you're speaking the truth!
Life just got easier once I started drinking green tea with acv and monk fruit, I'm down from 387 to 268lbs and loving the keto lifestyle! Thank you sir, you are priceless!
You are the best, you are spreading your knowledge free for every one💚💚💚
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!
Scott C. , Las Vegas, NV
Scott, how’s the journey? Hope all is well!
Thanks Dr. Berry, this video helped me alot.
Love your videos Dr. Ken! How long, and how often, should water fast for to get a maximum benefit? Thank you in advance for your answer.
Dr.Berry you Rock!👍 thank you for all your videos
Great video! Thanks Doc!
Oops! I'm glad I subscribed. I just had a delicious(what I thought was keto) coffee with a teaspoon each of mct ,butter, heavy cream, and collagen before fasting till mid afternoon. Tomorrow will be different! Thanks Dr Berry. I'm trying to get this right this time. I have a history of hashimotos. My last keto attempt I had hair loss a few months in which I'm hoping to avoid this time. Trying to educate myself in this long difficult journey.
I just asked a question on a different video of yours but got my answer on this video. No collagen powder in my coffee while fasting anymore. Thanks
Dr. Berry- You are always my go to for anything Keto or Intermittent Fasting related. I know that you know what you are talking about. Thank you for all you do.
I drink ACV and water. It soothes hunger pangs and settles upset tummy. I love it!
Great information. Thank you !!!!
Great information! Thank you!
This was so helpful as I’m suffering today and still got 6 hours to go so this was great advice
Thank you so much for the tip about my double cream (heavy cream) I put in my Tea. It very much explains my stall. That and the cream cheese witht the pork rinds. I need to water fast with salts to get me back on track!
Thanks for sharing this video
I have been watching your vids for a few years. I enjoy your topics so much. This vid you ask about the goal you have for I.F. . . I have had increasing health issues over the last 10 years. I have had
2 TIA's
Multiple 'kidney stones'
UTI's
Kidney infection
Major menopause issues
Total knee replacement
Flu, colds, bronchitis or pneumonia
12/2019 diagnosed type 2 diabetes
Now waiting to see a urologist because a CT scan found an abnormality in my bladder. I am a 48 year old woman. So, I am on many medications, 8 to be exact. For cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and depression. I am looking to start IF as well as Keto. For the health reasons above and because I weigh 260 lbs and I am 5'9" tall. Most of my weight is in my rear end and abdomen/chest and upper arms. I finally am seeing a FNP who listens to me. However I feel I need to be more proactive in my treatment as well. I also smoke cigarettes and have tried many many times to quit, but habit oc 31 yrs and stress make it a challenge. I feel like I need to make so many major changes in lifestyle, I am not sure where to begin. I feel I am at that moment of do or die, as in if I do not do I will die. I am not ready to die. I have severe financial restrictions to make it even more stressful. Help
So glad I watched this after your video post a few minutes ago. I am pretty much a newbie to real fasting. Listening to internet “experts” can certainly throw you many curves. Like Stevia is ok during your fast. For me, my goals are twofold. One is weight loss, about 75-80 lbs. But also, which is most important, to achieve autophagy for better health.
My favorite fasting drink is black coffee, salt (pinch) and a teaspoon of butter. That flavor is magic for me, and I go to bed actually looking forward to that in the morning.
I will definitely try this! :)
@@Cantabile07 I use coconut oil as well as butter when I think of it... but mainly coconut oil. Makes the coffee taste so rich.
I use MCT oil in my black coffee. I’ve noticed thou stomach aches sometimes when I put in MCT oil. Not sure why.
I add almond butter the oily kind. it is good
You break your fast with the coffee or you drink the coffee through out the day?
I listen very closely to your videos. I saw one where you told people with heart beat irregularities to take magnesium (500 to 800 mg) at bedtime. It worked like a charm and I sleep better (Like you said I would.) At first I had to be very careful to take it every night or the pops and bangs would come back. It took while for the levels to build up, but I was able to forget once in a while. I have had problems eating enough because of a weight loss surgery 20 years ago, and oddly still can gain weight. But thanks to doctors such as yourself I am getting better. I even crave that pickle juice.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us
Thank you Dr Berry. I was 213 20 days ago I am now 203 thanks to your Keto diet plus fasting. I do walk too. Thank you so much . I wish there were more docs like you. God bless
I have a well , my water comes from a natural spring, that’s my go to drink.
I love wells!
My name is Wells
I like Dawn Wells
Very helpful! THANKS
I've just started a few weeks ago. I'm down 15 pounds. I drink plain black 1/2 cafe coffee. Thank you for your encouragement.
Holly fat cells, I've got to rearrange my morning fasting routine. Thanks for direction again.
Thank you for clearing up some of my confusion. It seems like everyone who has advice on the ketogenic diet has a different answer when it comes to what's acceptable during a fast. I really just need to stick with water and MCT oil. Apparently, I haven't been fasting at all this whole time, because someone else said bone broth was ok. This may be why I've stalled.
I thought bone broth was OK when fasting
THANKU THIS INFO GREAT FOR ALL TIMES!!
This was extremely helpful. 14 days into ketovore and starting IF. I found out the hard way about stevia. I was a week in and finally had gotten over the worse the the sugar cravings. I had had a morning “keto” drink with stevia. Big mistake. My sugar cravings came roaring back and I had a couple of days of withdrawals again. So, I would definitely think stevia impacts my insulin levels. Won’t use it again.
Hi, Dr. Berry..Appreciate you so much, as many ;) How much per day of pickle juice or other electrolytes drinks are necessary during fasting? Thank you as always💝👍👍
One more I drink ginger and Lemmon warm tea throughout the day
Thank you, Dr. Berry!
Iove all your video's Dr.Berry,I have really good well water and I drink it all the time,so I'm lucky to enjoy fasting with water only.3 weeks with ketogenics and down 2 waste sizes and 22 lbs thanks again.
Hey doc, you're the best thank you for your videos!
If you liked this video, you may also want to know that One benefit to coffee is that it can increase mTOR, which can in turn increase autophagy! Autophagy helps get rid of old, dead cells in the body!
Swapping cream for butter 👍 Thank you Dr. Berry.
Very informative and well said
Thank you for this video. I was fasting with just black coffee. I brought some collagen protein powder and was adding it to my coffee. I will stop and not add it until I break my fast. I have been doing ACV and a big glass of water 1st thing when I get up. I stopped sugar and junk foods on July 7, 23. I have lost 32 lbs so far on keto and 2 weeks I have not ate any veggies. Added more fat and protein. Still learning. Feel a lot better.
My fasting guidance started using a formula called snake juice. It pretty much minerals (salt), and it keeps me going. I test different things out, adding butter to my coffee (which doesn't break my fast) and other things to see if it breaks my fast. It's fun to experiment with adding and subtracting different items to see which works and what doesn't. But for my regular 24, 48+ fast, I stick to minerals in water and coffee/tea only.
I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH. I AM AND WAS DOING EVERYTHING WRONG. WOW YOU MAKE IT SOUND EASIER
Hi Dr Berry
Mine is my own home made Rooibos iced tea🙂!!! I also drink a lot of Japanese Sencha and MATCHA Green tea.
Also drink straight Oolong tea and Chamomile tea which I actually grow in my own garden🙂.
I am a former athlete who has been stagnant for years due to a serious injury.
I have found with a daily intermittent fast of 16 and 8 and drinking these teas on top of my 3 day keto and 4 day Carnivore diet the weight I put on is just melting away without literally no effort and very moderate exercise 👍.
Very helpful video!
Dr. Berry, are there some electrolyte powders you would recommend for water fast. I have bought Dr Bergs Electrolyte powder but its sweet and expensive as well.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Your videos are always very simple, very informative and awesome. Thank you
Black coffee 20/4 everyday. Thank you Dr. Berry for all the information.
Wow this is all very good to know. I guess starting tomorrow, I won't be using sweeteners with my coffee. Also I'll be sure to try tea with butter today just to see how it tastes like but I know I broke my fast this morning. But hey tomorrow is another day! Now I know about this, I can apply it to my everyday fasting. It is also good thing that I am no longer doing the lemon water thing!
I LOVED when I found powerade ultra, and I thought itd be perfect for this, Im sad to hear that it was too good to be true, I am definitely happy to know this, I want my skin to be great when I get to my goal weight
my favorite fasting liquid is coffee but only in the morning until 1 pn. my eating window is between 2 pm and 8 pn. (I now have begun putting a little butter in my coffee) Thank you for your videos.
Kevin Jones that’s usually my eating window too. I was having coffee with heavy cream and alternate sweetener but I don’t really like the flavor of the sweetener and so I started skipping coffee twice a week and I noticed that I don’t really miss it so I think I am just going to give up the coffee completely. One question is it ok to do this fasting everyday?
I drink green tea in the morning and have now tried adding coconut oil or butter per your suggestion. Really helps and I have no problem eating my first meal at lunch (never am hungry when I get up anyway until an hour or so later). That gives me a 14 to 16 hour intermittant fast. I finally started keto because of your videos 4 days now. No cravings, either! Thank you for your work. Love your style!
In this video does he say that coconut oil or butter in your coffee/tea doesn't break a fast? If he says that he's incorrect....I'll watch it now to see what you're referring to.
Thank you very much you have given me hope
Thanks doc!
Hey Doc
I drink black coffee, water, ACV with a little Himalayan salt. I'll do 18/6, 3 times a week.
I've been doing IF for quite sometime now but I don"t see results because I put sweetener in it. Thanks for this video, DR. :)
Love this, im having a hard time with HWC. I need coffee in the morning. Thats my hardest thing
Hi Dr. Barry! Thank you for all the great info! I am now 61 yrs young 😀👍🏻 & have lost about 40 lbs. with IF & exercise . I weight 103 & have some loose skin...how do you suggest I do the water fast (AT) so I don’t lose anymore weight but tighten my skin & become even more healthy. I am eating clean & following your other guidance. I do love my unsweetened coffee in the morning. 😜. Thanks again to you & your wife & your team for caring for us so much!!!
Water, fasting 16 to 20 hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week.
I fast exclusively with water and black coffee in the mornings. I also add salt, magnesium drops, and iodine drops to one cup of my morning coffee. Works great! Thanks for all your videos and the constant flow of information that you give!!!
Salt, magnesium, iodine and a little butter in my morning coffee!
Dr. Ken, by the way, I got all of this from your videos you post. I use your magnesium drops, iodine drops, pink sea salt, etc. Thank you for keeping on strong in this. You are having a major impact on the Keto community!
@@markimboden1958 - I have already been adding a pinch of sea salt in my coffee. I'll try adding a drop of magnesium and iodine also instead of putting it my cup of water and drinking them separately.
Thank you dr. Berry!
Disaster Pants! THis is the BEST thing I have heard in a long long long time...you made me laugh HARD for a solid minute....now I love watching these super informative videos even more! Best medicine for sure was the laughter! You are not only helpful for the good advice, but funny too! Thank you so much!!!!
Coffee is my beverage of choice during my fast. I have been adding a little less than 1 teaspoon of mushroom powder (reishi, cordyceps, Lions Mane) for the health benefit. I was also using a little unsweetened cocoa powder but have eliminated that during the fast. Your thoughts on the mushroom powder?
I only have coffee (black) and water, and I eat one meal a day usually around 6:30. I'm very lucky in that I did a lot of fasting when I was younger, and I have zero issues with hunger. I've had plenty of issues with my esophagus (eosinophilic esophagitis) and likely have celiac (two of my sons have it, confirmed by biopsy, but I now don't eat enough wheat to get a definitive test) - all of my issues with swallowing related to this have completely gone away. It's as if the botttom of my esophagus has just disappeared - no more lumpy, "is this going to go down?" type feelings.
@ChistopherMurtagh I also had issues with swallowing supplements and some foods before starting Keto. Now I can swallow hand fulls of supplements without any problems. I noticed the improvement within the first month or two of starting Keto.
I just ordered my KetoChow electrolyte drops!!!! Thanks for this video clearing up some of the questions I had. I love black coffee and am getting used to drinking just water the rest of the day. I had to give up my Crystal Light Peach Tea. I was addicted. It was hard.
LOVE my coffee with real butter and salt during a fast - cheers for the advice! 👍🏻👍🏻
After my last meal every day and one second before I start my 16 hour IF, I put some salt in my mouth and drink it with water. That helps me not to have headaches during the fast. Might be not that relevant for a 16 hour fast but when I get occasionally to a 20 or 24 hour it does make the difference.
Thanks for info. I drink unsweetened tea with a slice of lemon
Dr Berry first off you're Awesome, and your book is a great read.
Do you have any recommendations for drinks for someone who is doing big caloric burn throughout the work day, and is on the carnivor diet?
Love and respect.
Coffee is my favorite fasting liquid. Thanks to your video, I now know to leave out the sweetener and heavy whipping cream. I love butter in my coffee and will try adding salt.
