Milk

As tea contains water why not just use less cream?
Because the mixture cools it down more quickly so it is ready to drink and tastes nicer. Also I can't be sure to get the right amount of cream if I just add a dash. This way if I make up enough for a day or so in a jug I know exactly how many carbs I am having. I'm not usually this fussy but I have only been doing keto for a month so I need to measure to make sure I am going to stay in ketosis.

Fair enough, good answer.

I buy alpro plain yogurt. 2or 3g carbs per 100g and its the lowest carb yogurt I can find in supermarkets.

I also use alpro unsweetened soya or almond milk for my coffee (says carb nil per 100g). It's nice to be able to enjoy milked coffee without worrying about bs rise. :-)

you may find this amusing... or then again maybe not!
 
So does Almond milk not contain sugar then?
Hi
You can get sugar free nut milk but unless you were lactose intolerant why give up a useful source of vitamins, fat and protein? Vitamin D deficiency is rampant in the UK and has been linked to higher rates of type 2. Just don't drink mega lattes or milkshakes because the actual amount of carb is small and not as quickly absorbed as glucose e.g. bread. I don't work for Dairy Crest by the way!
 
I was have problems with milk but now I take coffee with 36g of caw milk without problem1524269369678.jpg
 
caw milk? please can you explain?
Yes I use caw milk now but not a lot just 36g
Each time often a few times a day
Edit :
For example today I ate lunch and drank some coffee with milk and ate a little fruit and repeat a little fruit. After two hours it became blood sugar 5.4mmol 104mg/dl
