Drinking during fasting

I have just started fasting a bit. Mostly a few 24h and one 48h. I normally drink fresh lemonade (water, fresh squeezed lemons and stevia w/monk fruit). From what I have read this should not be an issue, but I also read no sweeteners and even hears that lemons are not good. Anyone able to set the record straight? Appreciate the help.

Answer

For water fasts I just stick with water and maybe black coffee/tea. And of course electrolytes. If you add anything beyond that, who knows what’s really happening at the lower levels. I guess it depends on your goals. I like to use fasting as a reset so I keep it as clean as possible.
