As there are so many coffee creamers available in stores, choosing a healthier alternative can be daunting. Dietitians suggest selecting products with whole ingredients and no ultra-processed components, and this review examines Califia Farms French Vanilla Almond Milk Coffee Creamer (25.4 Fluid Ounces). to see whether it fits with diabetes diet requirements.

Overall, this creamer contains high levels of cane sugar as well as various additives (sunflower lecithin, gellan gum and natural flavors) derived from ultra-processed sources that may not coincide with our goal of eating more whole foods. But due to its moderate glycemic index rating it may still fit into weight management strategies when combined wisely with nutritious whole food options.

Although this creamer contains additives, it remains low in sodium content and makes an ideal healthy choice for managing diabetes. When eaten as part of a balanced meal featuring fiber-rich foods and protein sources to prevent sudden spikes in blood sugar, this drink can be helpful.
