Add an extra touch to your morning cup of joe with this Great Value coffee creamer from Walmart, featuring just 30 calories per serving for optimal weight management. Also great for making decadent desserts and smoothies! Plus its decadent flavor will elevate any beverage.

When searching for a healthy coffee creamer to add to your morning brew, your options can seem limited. In reality, many of the most popular brands contain excess sugars and additives that could thwart weight loss efforts. But there are some simple guidelines you can follow when searching for healthy creamers; and one way of doing that is looking at its nutrition label.

As a registered dietitian, I’ve studied numerous coffee creamer labels to find those best suited to fit a healthy eating plan. While most coffee creamers fall under “processed food” category, there is room for these delicious dairy treats in a healthy eating plan when taken in moderation. Here are my recommendations for creamers you should add to your pantry and a recipe on how you can create your own homemade version!

Great Value offers a dairy-based option that’s similar in terms of calories and fat content to more well-known brands, but includes additional ingredients that might take this concoction in an industrial food direction than you prefer. Starting with corn syrup solids typically found in powdered creamers before moving on to hydrogenated vegetable oil from either coconut, palm kernel or soybean sources and finally dipotassium phosphate and mono and diglycerides; plus thickeners carrageenan and sodium caseinate for that creamy texture that you prefer.

Good news is that this product does contain beneficial fatty acids and vitamins such as vitamin D and calcium – with added bonus points for being low in both saturated fat and trans fat content.

This creamy non-dairy creamer is made with organic milk and coconut oil for a delicious vegan option that’s lactose intolerant-friendly, without added sugar and gluten free properties. Plus it tastes amazing!

Note that this product only contains one tablespoon as its serving size, making it less nutritious when taken in larger amounts. Furthermore, there have been recalls related to mislabeling or contamination with biological hazards for this brand.

Nutpods offers dairy-free coffee creamers that combine almond and coconut milk for an ultra creamy beverage, free from allergens found in traditional dairy. And with many flavors available, you are sure to find one that suits your palate perfectly!
