Q
does cellulose break a fast
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate found in the cell walls of plants that humans cannot digest due to the lack of necessary enzymes. When fasting, the concern primarily revolves around substances that can trigger metabolic activity, particularly those that raise blood sugar levels or cause an insulin response. Since cellulose is indigestible, it passes through the gastrointestinal tract without being absorbed into the bloodstream. Therefore, consuming pure cellulose would not technically break a fast from a metabolic perspective, as it does not provide the body with usable energy nor does it trigger significant metabolic activity. However, the context of fasting goals is crucial; if the aim is to avoid any form of ingestion, even non-caloric, for spiritual or other reasons, consuming cellulose might be considered breaking the fast.
