Let's Be Real....

Coffee creamer is an amazing, yummy treat that takes your coffee game to the next level. With that said, do you have a full understanding of what is put inside most store-bought coffee creamers? Let's take a quick look.

Dipotassium Phosphate

This is an inorganic compound that is deemed "generally recognized as safe" by the USFDA. With this in mind, there are some known side effects that are associated with prolonged use. These include headaches, dizziness, vomiting, and diarrhea.

Artificial Coloring/Flavoring

This is a topic that you should certainly look into more, as the effects of continuous consumption can be quite bad. Take a look at this article, which explains the impacts more in depth.

Sugar

This should come off as a no brainer to you. Sugar can have extreme side effects, such as weight gain increased risk of heart disease, and more.

 

Let's Fix This!

Using protein powder, specifically Micropure Whey Protein Isolate, as a "creamer" in your coffee can be a very beneficial addition to your routine. Below is a simple directional breakdown into how to best do this:

Instructions

1. Heat up coffee in a coffee pot.
2. Add 1/2 scoop of your favorite Micropure Whey Protein Isolate flavor into your coffee cup/mug. We suggest following the rule of 1/2 scoop per every 8oz of coffee, but change this depending on your preference.
3. Pour hot coffee into your cup/mug and allow it to sit for 15-30 seconds.
4. Using a spoon, blend the coffee and Micropure Whey Protein Isolate for about 45-60 seconds.
5. Add in any additional ingredients to your coffee (depending on your preference).
