5 Reasons You Shouldn’t Add Sugar to Your Cup of Joe

And we’ve done a lot worse with our coffee. Have you even seen what some get from Starbucks? It’s terrifying….

But it’s no secret coffee’s been an American institution for who knows how long – the National Coffee Association reported 65% of Americans drink more coffee in one day than any other beverage.

But what’s this issue with added sugar (or creamer)? Not everyone likes black, you know? Well, I’ll tell you: here are five issues with that.

#1: You’ll spike your blood sugar levels

 And for those who deal with diabetes, that’s a detriment.

That added sugar you’re throwing into your black coffee cakes up your bloodstream, causing you to spike. Generally speaking, though, if you don’t have diabetes, you won’t be in big trouble. Per se.

 But the noticeable crash you’re going to feel from the “sugar rush” will definitely be trouble.

#2: You’ll gain weight

 That should be a no-brainer, but many don’t realize a lot of our foods already contain sugar. They’re called “natural sugars.” So what happens when you add the processed stuff?

You’ll balloon up. And here’s how big it will be:

The average American will eat a total of 17 teaspoons of added sugar daily. To put that in more perspective, you’re looking at over 250 calories – just from drinking coffee alone. Potentially.

#3: You’ll get more cavities

Added sugars are like a floodgate for serious tooth decay. We mentioned the natural sugars before. They’re part of your diet. But added sugars in their refined form will rack your teeth with calamity!

In fact, according to the World Health Organization, sugar-sweetened coffees are among the primary cause of those cavities to your pearly whites.

#4: You’ll replace the nutrients your body needs

That’s an understatement. Think about it.

If you’re drinking a toothache from Hades for coffee, you’re most likely not consuming something that’s perhaps a bit more nutrient rich. Basic logic. And that’s according to the Mayo Clinic, too.

Seriously, it’s already a factor that a lot of high-sugar foods lack those essential vitamins and minerals. So by you gulping that sugared-up coffee drink, you’re adding insult to injury.

#5: Lastly, you’ll increase your risk of heart disease

We saved the best one for last: the risk of your life!

It’s a fact that too much added sugar can increase your risk of heart disease according to the Cleveland Clinic, so do the math:

High blood pressure, chronic inflammation, increased triglycerides, high cholesterol: pick your poison.

That’s everything added sugar can add up to in your coffee
