Drinking caffeine-containing beverages as part of a normal lifestyle doesn't cause fluid loss in excess of the volume ingested. While caffeinated drinks may have a mild diuretic effect — meaning that they may cause the need to urinate — they don't appear to increase the risk of dehydration.

Read More »Do caffeinated drinks, such as coffee or energy drinks, hydrate you as well as water? Answer From Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D. Water is the best liquid you can drink to stay hydrated. But caffeinated drinks can help meet your daily fluid needs. The amount of water your body needs varies. Your age, body size and activity level affect how much water you need. Also, where you live, if you have air conditioning when it's hot, or if you work inside or outside can affect how much you need to drink. Breathing, getting rid of body waste and sweating are ways the body loses water. As a chemical, caffeine increases production of urine, which means caffeine is a diuretic. But most research suggests that the fluid in caffeinated drinks balances the diuretic effect of typical caffeine levels. High doses of caffeine taken all at once may increase the amount of urine the body makes. This is more likely if you aren't used to caffeine. Caffeinated drinks are available for every time of day. So it's important to read the labels on these beverages. That will help you stay at a safe level for your total intake of caffeine. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has set a daily limit for total caffeine. The limit is 400 milligrams a day for adults. There is no safe limit identified for others. For kids age 2 or younger, dietary guidelines for Americans suggest avoiding drinks with caffeine. They also suggest that people who are pregnant or nursing talk to their health care providers if they have questions about caffeine. Very high doses of caffeine, greater than 10 milligrams per kilogram daily, are linked to serious health conditions. If a person weighs 165 pounds (about 75 kilograms), a very high dose is about 750 milligrams of caffeine in a day. Chest pain, irregular heartbeat and stroke have been reported when people take this much caffeine. Caffeine poisoning can happen with 1,200 milligrams of pure caffeine, according to the FDA . That is less than half a teaspoon of caffeine in powder form. Other, more-common issues people have reported after drinking caffeinated drinks are trouble sleeping, loose stools and upset stomach. Overall, water is probably your best bet to stay hydrated. It's calorie-free, caffeine-free, inexpensive and easily available. There is a problem with information submitted for this request.

The second phase kicks off after four hours and lasts up until about 16 hours from your last meal. This is the "catabolic," or breakdown, phase, when all those extra nutrients start being released from storage to be used for energy. Once the energy stored in your cells runs out, your body starts to rely instead on stored fat. The process of releasing fat and burning it up for energy releases chemicals known as ketone bodies for energy, which usually happens around the 16-hour mark. The rate at which you reach this stage really depends on what you ate for the last couple of meals before your fast. If you ate a lot of carbs and starch, it will take a bit longer than if you ate mostly fats and protein. One of the most powerful features of fasting, called autophagy, also kicks off during this phase. Autophagy is triggered by a reduction in a growth regulator called MTOR, and this process is basically a spring cleaning for your cells. It gets rid of any dead or damaged cellular material3 , which can otherwise contribute to aging, cancer, and chronic disease.
