Exogenous Ketones effect on fasting

I have been taking exogenous ketones before exercising to improve my cardiovascular performance (they work for me by the way), but I have recently engaged in an extended fast and I’m wondering if taking this supplement will kick me out of fasting? I am doing a broth fast, not a water fast so I am already getting 50-100 calories from broth a day.

The ketones I am taking are 56 calories, 3g of carbs (yikes), and 0.19g of sugar.

I’m having a hard time finding information on this since exogenous ketones seem to be fairly new to the keto world, please share if you have experience with this!

Thanks and happy fasting!
