Sajjad Shah, founder of Muslim of the World cafe chain and intermittent Fasting proponent, stresses its significance for those practicing Intermittent Fasting diet – restricting food consumption during set time windows each day to reduce belly fat while improving overall health, such as weight loss and lower cholesterol, blood pressure and glucose/energy levels.

But is mushroom coffee okay to drink while fasting? This depends on its type and ingredients; registered dieticians suggest opting for beverages containing 50 or fewer calories during your fast, and avoid those containing sugar or artificial sweeteners as these could increase caloric intake while disrupting insulin levels.

Matcha tea contains under five calories per serving when consumed plain and is packed with an effective combination of caffeine and L-theanine that promotes focus without an abrupt crash. Plus, its abundant antioxidant content supports cell repair and anti-ageing – this aligns nicely with fasting goals such as decreasing chronic inflammation, oxidative stress and metabolic damage.

Mushroom coffee supplements contain both protein and carbs in large amounts, making them excellent sources of fast-breaking sustenance as they contain macronutrients which raise insulin levels and trigger hunger pangs.
