Does coffee (or tea, for that matter) not disturb a fast?

If I'm not mistaken, bulletproof coffee is a branded coffee drink that has oils and butter in it. Regular black coffee has a few calories in it per cup.

That said, I don't think that 100% of the autophagic effects of fasting are negated by ingesting a small amount of calories. But where the autophagic effects drop off significantly is totally beyond me.
