I've read elsewhere on the forum that some VLCD (may have been LL or CD, not sure) allow this.
As I wasn't 100% sure what it was - I thought a sort of very thin soup - I went hunting yesterday.
Turns out it is basically like a stock cubes, comes in meaty or veggie varieties and seems fairly innocuous if taken in small quantities. Half a cube in a mug of hot water will have around 24 cals, 0.9g protein, 1.2g carbs and 1.8g fat. Can't see that interfering with the ketosis, although it does also contain salt I don't think it's any more than you would say sprinkle on a soup to season it.
As I don't drink tea or coffee, diet drinks and hot chocolate are out at the moment and I'm trying to remain sparing with flavoured water (no more than one small glass per day, usually less) I was thinking I may give it a try to use up some of my boring daily water allowance. Again, I was thinking maybe a mug every couple of days, not several pints a day!
Wondering if any of you long-termers have heard of this or tried it, and what you think of the idea?
