Then I look for  each item Glycaemic index (how quickly and how high blood sugar goes up) and Glycaemic load (how much carb in it). Each spoon of sugar (I believe) has 4 Grams of Carb and so 4x4= 16 calories.I cut down from 6 to 8 coffees a day to 4 each with 2 spoons of sugar. Also I drink coffee "in between" not following meal to avoid intake of large amount of carb. in one go.</blockquote>
