If you take Metamucil during IF, does that break the fast?

Answer

I’ve been taking Metamucil this time around. Yes it has calories BUT it helps immensely with the diarrhea. Been doing 3 scoops in the morning and 3 at night, mix my electrolytes in and it makes the saltiness palatable. Technically you’ll be “dirty fasting”, but the 100 or so calories I consume are essentially meaningless.
