The Sickie, Disgusting Truth About Sugar-Free Coffee Syrups

Please don’t be that person in line at Starbucks.

You know the person that thinks they’re totally healthy because they order sugar-free syrup in their AM coffee instead of regular, old syrup?

News flash!!!

If you’re trying to keep your weight down ( & wanting to be healthy/sexy ) and monitor your sugar intake. then sugar-free shit isn’t the way to go. Why? Because:

1.} There are a ton of sick-ass chemicals in artificial sweeteners. These fake sweeteners increase ( yes, you heard that correctly, increase ) the appetite.  More appetite will cause weight gain.  So WTF is the point of sugar-free crap if it increases your appetite? Beats me.

2.} Throw that Equal in the trash! I mean, really, what is it’s health benefits? Aspartame is the devil. It’s known to cause seizers & brain tumors.

3.} Sucralose isn’t any better. Those bright, cute colored packages of Splenda? Fail. Big fail. Splenda can enlarge the liver & kidneys while shrinking the thymus gland. Some other fun effects from this nasty chemical? Panic, diarrhea, headaches, brain fog, bladder problems, & stomach pains. Don’t be fooled by marketing.

4.} Going for Corn syrup  in your coffee drinks because you are staying away from regular cane sugar – well guess what? Grams of sugar is virtually similar to corn syrup or even worst.

And your local coffee shop’s sugar-free syrups and sugar free products most likely contain one or more of the above chemicals. So, in general, added sugar can cause high blood sugar that may lead to type 2 diabetes.  Disgusting, right?!

Tomorrow, when you’re ordering a cup of Joe, try these sugar substitute / sugar free option – add flavored cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin spice as an all-natural sugars and no artificial flavor. Even better, skip Starbucks and try some cold brew. If you’re DYING for a sugary taste, please do yourself a favor & use organic Stevia ( it’s derived from a plant ) instead. Eat real foods!

I beg, I beg.

Besides sugar-free syrup in your coffee is pretty gross if you really think about it.
