Just wondering what you guys think about Coffee and Teas for blood sugar.
A guy in my office just gave me a large coffee from Starbucks and I don't know anything about coffee. Never really drank the stuff, although in my younger years I used to love French vanilla, or English Toffee cappuccinos from Tim Hortons. But it's pretty clear those are filled with sugar and high carbs. However, I enjoyed the coffee he gave me. Not sure if it was caffeinated or decaf. No idea.
But what about coffee? I have no idea. I don't even know how to make it. What do you know about the nutrition of coffee? Is it good or bad, and if you drink it, how often and how much of it do you drink?
I know Teas are generally very low carb like less than a gram, and won't mess up homeostasis that much, but what about coffee. Please discuss if you are informed on this topic.
