About drinking coffee.

[Olufisayo]

I love to drink coffee but I read on another forum that coffee spikes the bgs. Is this true. I take anti high blood pressure daily too.

You can check that out simply by testing your bg before and 2hrs after

then cut down your coffee intake, switch to tea

I drink black strong coffee and not noticed any difference.
Though I alternate, tea then coffee then tea during the day

I drink decaff and it tastes awful and does nothing for my BG

 

[Guzzler]

Coffee does nothing in terms of my bg, no rise at all and it is full of antioxidants. I drink decaff with double cream or tea with a splash of milk.

I've always had cream in coffee (about three in a morning). Tea in the afternoon. Used to be green or Earl Grey to avoid using milk but now I've found the Lactose-free milk (full fat), has less sugar.
