[quote=Anonymous]Mansplain Douchebag here...anything that can signal your body to release insulin will technically break your fast.  One calorie of anything OR 0 calories of artificial sweetener technically takes your body out of a fasting state.  It has been demonstrated that the taste of sweet on the tongue, even if it's 0 calories will cause insulin release in your body.  I'm not going to argue if a low calorie day of broth will cause weight loss because I'm sure it will work great!  That is clearly a major calorie restriction.  I would say, the person who came up with that diet plan is doing the world a disservice by muddying the definition of the word "fast".  They should call it a low calorie broth diet or something.  It's just confusing to call that a fast.  There's other ones out there like that too.  I know someone who says they do a "fruit fast" and all they eat is fruit for 2 weeks.  Sorry, not a fast.  When my wife was going through her initial fasting experience and dropping 55 pounds in 5 months, I do wonder if part of the reason it happened so fast was because the fasting periods DID rebalance her hormones.  As I stated in a previous post that's one of the many health benefits of going through the reset your body does during a true fasting period.  She was doing lots of diet things to drop weight before fasting and none of it worked, until fasting and then she dropped weight like crazy.  I can't help but wonder.[/quote]
