What can you drink on Exante

[OnlyWannaBeA16]

When I did cambridge (2010) I was allowed 200mls of milk and this really helped curb my hunger at 3pm and 8pm, am I allowed it on Exante?

Hi Wee, its the citric acid that can sometimes knock people out of ketosis. The drinks on the allowed list dont have citric acid.

Some people do have a little bit of milk, for example in tea/coffee, during the day and it doesn't seem to affect their losses x

Are drinks with phosphoric acid allowed? Its just I noticed Cherry Coke doesnt have any citric acid in it, and just wondered if phosphoric acid was ok or not...

It may not have citric acid, but considering the ingredients are water, sugar, colour, phosphoric acid, and flavourings it's a big no-no. 150 Kcal / 37g carb a can.

Is sucralose a problem? I'd not heard that

"Lactic acid fermentation is a biological process by which sugars such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose, are converted into cellular energy and the metabolic byproduct lactate." (wikipedia)

glucose and sucrose will definitely throw you out of ketosis

Ahhh sucrose is sugar basically whereas I believe sucralose is a sweetener.
