I know many family and friends that love there coffee with cream and sugar. I am one of them. I have tried to drink coffee black but it doesn’t taste good to me that way. I do add heavy cream but I don’t add the sugar.
I used to buy the flavored creamers until I found out what they added to them and then I stopped.
Not only liquid creamers but powder creamers are bad for you too. That sucks if you like creamy coffee.
The powdered coffee creamer has MSG and they call it natural flavors, and if soy is involved can it cause severe problems for people with allergies.
Dipotassium phosphate – as a anti-coagulant stabilizer is used in non dairy creamers. It is also found in many cosmetics and fertilizer.
Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate – is used as a cleansing agent used in cosmetics, if consumed it leads to stomach pain, nausea, headaches and vomiting. This is used to replace sugar and fat in the powdered creamer.
Some creamers contain trans fats that raise your bad cholesterol.
If you stop and check out the liquid coffee creamer and powder, they are about the same when it comes to what they add to them both.
If they are not used in moderation they can raise havoc with your body, but still, if used for a long time does the same thing.
Coffee creamers raise your bad LDL and bad fats.
The good news is, there are other ways to get that rich creamy dreamy flavor that keeps us coming back over and over again to be awakened fabulously ,not only by our taste buds but our minds.
I know some of you are thinking, what is it? What is it already?!
It is plain milk, with a little bit of monk sugar. Or the heavy cream if you like it creamy.
I like the heavy cream and honey. It gives it the right touch of sweet and creamy that satisfies me.
If you want to loose weight or are counting calories then flavor may not be for you, then you are looking for the plain cup of coffee.
To each their own. But I searched about more info on trans fats.
Did you know that its just one ingredient away form being plastic?
Our bodies have to work really hard to get rid of all the toxic plastic running through it.
How can the FDA let these company’s get away with this?
We, the consumer, trust these companies to prepare our food and many of us buy blindly without reading the ingredients.
They are not going to put on the label “made with real rat poison”
They may hide what chemical they used by using a different name, and only someone with the knowledge of chemicals knows the names they use for that chemical.
So if it says trans fat, put it down and continue to look for something else that has true flavor.
If you have your phone handy, and don’t understand an ingredient, look it up. Then and there, you may be surprised what you may find out about your favorite creamer or food.
