It has a ton of info - Martin Berkhan is really first person who popularized 16:8.
One of advises there is that you can have black coffee with some milk, because milk is really low on calories.
Also, from his site again, 10g of BCAA pre and postworkout does not change expression of fasting markers in blood. 10g of BCAA is ~40 calories. Put differently, it is equal to two teaspoons of sugar.
And, to finalize, he recommends 14:10 regime for women.
- wmeredith 6y ago> milk is really low on calories Excuse me? One cup of milk has about the same as, or a lot more, calories than a cup of Coca-Cola. 149 for whole milk (91 for skim). 98 for the coke.
- blairbeckwith 6y agoIn the amounts people usually put in coffee, it is insignificant.

- jedimastert 6y agoThe real question is how much milk are you putting in your coffee? Not a cup, I don't think. Although, full disclosure, I don't put milk in my coffee so I really wouldn't know...
- wmeredith 6y agoI drink my coffee black. I thought the statement that milk was low on calories was odd.
- thesz 6y agoOne cup of milk is about 242g, that means milk has energy density 0.62 calories per gram, much less that sugar (4 calories per gram) or fat (9 calories per gram). Also, it looks like 80 calories will not change fasting state of your body (see above about 20g of BCAA). You may put 80 calories / 0.62 calories per gram = 129 grams of milk or half of cup, into your coffee or tea and not interrupt your fast.
