Coffee has long been part of our daily ritual and source of great comfort, but whether lactose-intolerant, sugar-free diet following or simply trying to cut back on processed additives – 7-Eleven offers a selection of healthier creamers to meet all needs and preferences of coffee drinkers.

Traditional store-bought creamers contain excessive sugars and artificial ingredients that may lead to an energy crash, weight gain, and long-term health concerns such as heart disease. Even brands claiming they’re “healthier” by restricting added sugar or including no trans fats may still contain harmful components that compromise our wellbeing.

Coffee Mate creamer, for instance, contains 5 grams of sugar per tablespoon if consumed twice per day – that’s more than the recommended daily sugar intake for both men and women combined! Plus it contains chemicals like aspartame and sucralose which could potentially harm your health as well. Many store-bought creamers contain gums or emulsifiers which are hard on digestion leading to bloating, gas and even diarrhea symptoms for some.

Find the right healthy coffee creamer is all about choosing a product that will meet both your personal taste and dietary needs without jeopardizing your health goals. Start by reading labels carefully, selecting brands with lower calories, less sugar, no artificial flavors or preservatives as well as non-dairy options made without sodium caseinate (derived from milk) that use only natural oils as ingredients.

There are various low-fat or sugar-free varieties of coffee creamers that provide creamy textures with flavorful complexity without the unhealthy extras, such as MCT oil, coconut milk or ghee. Some healthy coffee creamers even include beneficial fats from these sources to support energy levels throughout your day. If lactose intolerance or allergy is an issue for you, full-fat canned coconut milk provides a delicious dairy-free option without compromising flavor; full fat canned coconut milk also is lactose-free making it ideal if lactose is an issue; for those interested in powdered mixes made exclusively with organic and non-GMO ingredients.
