Yes, you can have artificial sweetener in green tea before a fasting blood test, because this is not real sugar and will not affect your results.
Yes
I am faced with a similar situation. I need to fast 14 hours before my blood work, and I would like some iced tea. I have only been fasting for 4 hours, so I still have 10 hours to go. I called my brother-in-law, who is a doctor in Minnesota, and he said it was fine to have the tea tonight (as long as nothing is added to it). However, I cannot drink the tea tomorrow morning before the visit. Only water.
no only water can be drink
Intake of food or drink before a blood test depends on the type of test being done. If the test is non-fasting, then most any intake is fine. If the test is fasting, your doctor may recommend only a bit of water of possibly black coffee before the test. Your doctor or lab personnel can advise you further based on the type of test you are scheduled for. Even if tea is allowed, it is important to remember the caffeine found in many teas can be dehydrating, which can make blood draws more difficult and may alter some results.

You should not have any herbal tea to drink before a fasting blood test. You should not eat anything either. A few sips of water is ok but nothing else.
The average person does not drink enough water daily, thus making the blood a bit thicker. It is a good idea to drink water 2 hours before having blood drawn to thin it out a bit making it easier to draw the blood out.
There are many reasons why a person has to have a blood test done. Mega T Green Tea will show up in a blood test, and can alter the results.

yes, it has helped me in the pass. just stop drinking it at least 24 hours before the test to make sure toxins arent still trying to get out when you pee for your test.
Usually 4-5 hours

Totally depends on why you are doing the water fast in the first place. Drinking green tea, or any other variation of tea for that matter, could stimulate the taste sensation, making it all the more difficult to stay the course. Each person is different, for some, drinking the tea will not have any adverse effects, yet for others, sticking to zero taste during the fast is easiest. It all comes down to personal preference and the very reason as to why you are fasting.
