Kombucha and keto?

#1

I couldn’t find anything conclusive about drinking Kombucha while on ketoand or fasting.
I am talking about the home brewed stuff, most of the commercially packaged stuff is full of sugar
and other stuff.

Just in case someone don’t know what Kombucha is there is a link
Kombucha

I am making my own for a while and usually drink a glass a day or not, depends how my day is.
I quite enjoy the taste.
Does anyone know how much sugar is left in fermented Kombucha?
Is it ok to drink while fasting?
What do you think about it?

Thanks.

Near the beginning of The Complete Guide To Fasting, by Fung with Moore, Moore relates his fasting experiences and uses kombucha while fasting. Haven’t looked at it myself but interested in more fermented foods so I may.

I personally don’t like lemonade or lemon in my water, but I enjoy the flavor or Kombucha.
Also interesting is that drinking black or green tea makes me hungry.
Not just a bit but it makes me hungry that I could eat wallpapers of the wall. :crazy_face:
Just weird.

That is strange. Well, go for the kombucha without added sugar and that should work. Where’d you get that emoji? I’m in love!!!
