How harmful is coffee creamer sugar free?

[cfrs123]

I made my meal plan for 215p 250c 70f and I thought id be able to down coffee black but no thank you.

Is cream bad?

[DavidUnderhand]

No better or worse than anything else - unless it affects your health or doesn't allow you to hit your macros properly. Just make sure you count it appropriately.

What would make it harmful?

I'm sure the OP found that very helpful.

[beastlymandude]

The amount you consume and your overall diet have to be taken into consideration to answer this question.

haha I should have elaborated. I meant dairy tolerance and other personal factors. Essentially things not directly related to physical appearance.

coffee creamer sugar free............................The Silent Killer

Just use a tablespoon worth of fat free milk. Equates to ~5 calories, which I would not even think about counting.

most coffee creamers contain hydrogenated oils

That's why I just use milk. Iv'e been throwing away anything I find around the house with it in it. Even found butter that had 1.5g trans fat on label

Did you see the thread in here about the peanut butter? <2% is fine and won't have any amounts measurable in lab tests. IMO a little won't hurt you given your activity level.

I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough.

When I mean harmful I mean dangerous to my goals. I had been working out for 18 months, but have had 7 days just of macros and the gains I've seen in this past week out shoot everything else by far.

Just trying not to **** it up

20 calories worth of milk in your coffee won't throw you off by much. Consistently track your intake either accounting for or not accounting for the additive and your net weekly gain/loss will remain constant.

For example, I don't track my fish oil in my macros. My TDEE may seem lower (not by much) because I have extra daily calories I don't account for. See what I mean?

Any amount of trans fat is dangerous.

There's nothing wrong with milk (use skim milk if you're really concerned) and sugar in your coffee, just count it.

If you're drinking coffee just for the caffeine and hate it otherwise, consider buying caffeine pills instead.

No, caffeine pills aren't more harmful then coffee.

ya i know, thats why im not worried

I've been drinking black coffee for almost two years now... Frankly I prefer it now.

You learn to really appreciate good coffee; not caffeine drowned out by lactose and artificial sweetner.

What I do sometimes is sprinkle in some Saigon Cinnamon or vanilla extract for some added flavoring on occasion. Cinnamon itself is a great additive and has some nice side effects on insulin spikes... Just don't go overboard as too much can have some nasty side effects as well lol.

But as for adding milk, a little won't kill you. Try using whole fat or heavy cream... You won't need as much to lighten the coffee up depending on the roast.
