Does drinking bone broth break your fast?Updated a year ago

If you’re following a strict, zero-calorie fast of just water, black tea or coffee, then technically, drinking bone broth will break your fast as it contains calories (albeit a low amount). But it also depends on why you’re fasting. The main aim of intermittent fasting is to get the body into a keto state (fat-burning stage). If you are doing a prolonged fast, bone broth can help with ketosis, and that’s why many people choose to drink a small amount during their fast. Bone broth is also a gentle way to break the end of a fasting period.
