United States Embassy Pristina Security Message for U.S. Citizens: Heightened Caution During Religio. Senator John McCainâs Remarks to the Assembly of Kosovo. Thank you, Mister Speaker, Mister Prime Minister, and dear friends for that kind reception and for the honor of addressing this Assembly.
If you drink black coffee, with no additives, you can still have fasting labs done. However, coffee will increase your blood pressure and affect some tests .... especially a CRP. Your paying for these tests. I would recommend no coffee 10-12 hours prior if your not sure. The best method is to call the laboratory.
Moreover, the Church has always held that fasts are to be observed in accordance with oneâs heath and responsibilities. But interestingly, the CE has this to say about liquids on fast days: Never mind for the moment that coffee and tea appear only in the medicinal list. The Church didnât write these lists. They are simply efforts to interpret what fasting means in the light of two common questions, one about thirst, the other about medicine. Very few would argue that coffee is food-like enough to be allowed only medicinally while beer is not. Indeed, the nutritional value of beer is far higher than that of coffee.
