*About this video*
Ben Tanner PA-C explains why it's typically okay to take a medication like Tylenol during intermittent fasting. But to some extent it depends on your goals. For example, if you're trying to maximize cellular benefits like autophagy, you would probably want to be quite strict about how you fast. But if you're just trying to make gradual Improvement in things like blood sugar and body fat, you probably don't need to be as strict. A medication like Tylenol probably will not raise your blood sugar or insulin level, and most likely will not have a significant impact on your fasting. Most importantly, you can probably still get plenty of health benefits from fasting while taking Tylenol (like weight loss, normalizing blood sugar, treating diabetes, and more).
