Protein shakes may help with mental performance when fasting.
- GordonS 8y agoSurely nobody would class that as fasting, since you're basically drinking liquidised food?
- bayesian_horse 8y agoDepends on the kind of shake and the amount consumed. But with most products meant for weight loss at recommended intake [e.g. not Soylent], the caloric intake is so low, that the metabolism enters the fasting state. However, muscle loss and the risk for other deficiencies is reduced.
