Tim Hortons can provide a refreshing way to start your day. Offering delicious coffee options and baked goods, they provide convenient dining options. However, while these foods may taste good they may contain high levels of calories, sugar, fat, and sodium; therefore it is essential that customers understand how these products are promoted as healthy before making decisions when ordering from this fast-food chain.

If you’re searching for a low-cal option, try an iced coffee. Brewed cold to produce a smoother and less bitter taste than traditional coffee, add vanilla or mocha syrup for extra flavor without additional calories and sugar intake. Or make your own using an easy homemade recipe – mix equal parts of brewed coffee with several teaspoons of sugar before stirring in ice cubes and refrigerating for up to two days in an airtight container!

Tim Horton’s Iced Coffee contains more sugar and saturated fat than many beverages, so if you want to limit your sugar intake, order one with 2% milk instead of full cream as this can reduce calories and saturated fat content.

Tim Hortons provides tea beverages that are low in both calories and sugar content, depending on their size, with 120-260 Calories being the average range for their beverages. To learn more about nutrition information for different sizes of beverages available at Tim Hortons visit their website.

Baked goods from Tim Hortons are an enjoyable addition to a balanced diet, though should only be indulged in occasionally. Certain baked goods from their menu are more nutritional than others – for instance a strawberry-filled Timbit has 90 calories and 1.5g of fat while chocolate chip muffins have 420cal, 30g fat, 205mg cholesterol and 3g of sugar!

An efficient way of looking at it would be looking at it from an efficiency and caffeine per dollar angle, with one large iced capp supreme with cream containing 540 calories and 23 grams of saturated fat (20 of which are saturated), yet you could get just as much caffeine from one cup of their original iced coffee at only 160 calories.

Healthwise, it is best to opt for skim or 1% milk instead of whole. A steamed chocolate frap will contain more calcium, vitamin D and potassium than its blended equivalent; Starbucks also offers smoothies high in calories, sugar and saturated fat; for healthier alternatives try blending berries with yogurt and ice instead of milk; frozen fruit makes an even healthier treat than ice for adding an additional nutritious boost; you could even create your own homemade smoothie using just a blender and bowl, switching out dairy milk with non-dairy alternatives like almond milk for maximum nutritional gains!
