Does coffee have sugar in it?

Question

I have gestational diabetes and I am not supposed to have drinks with sugar. I know, I know, coffee is not the best drink for a pregnant woman anyways... But I don't drink pop...which has a lot of caffeine in it as well. I don't drink over the recommended limit (3 cups) either. But do u think coffee with a little bit of milk and no sugar is really harmful?

Answer 1

I am a CCMA

Black coffee has no sugar in it

Answer 2

no i don't think it has sugar in it. its just coffee beans, water and milk. coffee definately doesn't taste sweet to me, so i think u should be good drinking coffee. hope this was helpful!  

Answer 3

no sugar in cofee, although i would use a non-dairy creamer _ milk has sugars.

think about a decaf variety, so you limit your caffeine.

Answer 4

gee I don't know!  Read the label. I think there is.

Answer 5

Can you use Stevia instead of sugar?  Best is ice water, if you can train yourself to like it.  Healthy, refreshing and practically free.

Answer 6

no, think of your baby! Only do what is best for him!

Answer 7

The milk has sugar in the form of Lactose in it. You might want to watch the Lactose amounts.

Non dairy creamer has a lot of added carbohydrates in it. Don't use it at all.

I drank coffee 24/7 when pregnant, no one even hinted then that it might be harmful. Always black with no sugar or creamer.

Can you thin your coffee down a lot with hot water? then you could drink more of it. No one says a word about tea!! It has as much caffeine in it as coffee does.

Count the milk or creamer as a few grams of carb in your food plan. I don't know how many, but sugar in any milk product, except cheeses. sends my glucose racing for the moon.

I drink like about 3 pots of coffee per day. Have never drank soda pops, and don't like unflavored water!

Cream will have the least amount of lactose in it, but comes with the price tag of fats.
