Hi all

quick q and I kow I'm being lazy it's probably in the millions of pages of guidance somewhere...but I'm doing a basal test over these few days and was wondering whether you think it's ok to have peppermint tea with sweetener during the fasting period? not sure re the sweetener (I'm guessing plain pepermint tea would be ok)??
 
I'm sure that would be fine - though I avoid milky/caffeinated drinks when I'm testing.
 
yeah i do the same - avoid milk and caffeine. luckily peppermint tea has neither 🙂

cheers Mike
