These days I use the organic almond milk that Trader Joe’s sells. I like that one a lot. They have an original and a vanilla version. I use the original, but the vanilla one might be more to your liking if you’re into flavored creamers.

Where do you buy the O V soy creamer?
I have to be on a low fat diet for high col. And I just cant give up my flavored creamer in my coffee. I love Irish cream. I do use Silk brand soy milk. I guess they make a coffee creamer now too. I will have to try that also. And Id like to try the Almond milk. I wonder how that would be in coffee?

[...] How do you take your coffee? There has been a lot of research that suggests one cup of coffee a day can be beneficial to your health. But it’s what you put IN your coffee that can make it unhealthy. I love having my morning cup of coffee, but I used to add all kinds of stuff to make it taste better. But once I realized how bad that “stuff” was, I quickly changed the way I drank coffee. I started slowly reducing the amount of sugar and creamer, then started using almond milk (I am lactose intolerant) and replaced sugar with honey. Now, the only thing I add is a little almond milk.The same goes to all you tea drinkers out there. Herbal tea is very good for you… it’s all the sugar you put it in that makes it bad for you. Start slowly, and then try raw honey as a sweetener. It will only change the taste at first…. eventually, it will taste better knowing that you are drinking your coffee/tea in a much healthier way.http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/calories/NU00185http://www.beinghealthy.tv/archives/coffee_creamer/ [...]

Great article!! I was thinking about this the other day and thought I can’t be alone in knowing this stuff is not a good choice. I personally like Organic Valley’s soy creamer when I don’t want my coffee black – which isn’t very often.

Also, OV makes the soy creamer in flavors such as French Vanilla and Irish Cream

I’ve been a user of non-dairy cremer powder for at least 30 years. I am very nervous to know what may have happened to my insides as a result of this.. If there are any Dr.’s reading this.. please respond back to me….

I have switched to zilitol which is ok but the creamer is a problem. I tried milk and 2% evaporated milk. Yuck. Hopefully the almond milk will do the trick. Frankly, trying to eat healthy is not easy. My biggest downfall is blue cheese dressing. I would rather not eat salad than give it up. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much for the info. I’ve been trying to eat healthier, grow my own garden, eat organic, cut out the BPA lined foods and reading/studying a lot about obesogens (hormone disruptors) in our food system and the partially hydrogenated oils were listed as one, so I thank you so much for these helpful suggestions.

I am going to try flavored, organic fair-trade coffee (hazelnut flavored if I can find it) and sweeten it with almond milk and xylitol-a sweetener I bought at my healthfood store that tastes better than stevia.

Like I said, trying to do the right thing within my wallet’s limits.

Best of health to you all!

I just kicked the non-diary creamer habit and it was hard. I now use milk or half & half. I was shocked to find out how much saturated fat is contained in these products. It doesn’t matter if you’re using liquid or powder. Thanks for sharing w/ everyone and trying to make the world a little healthier.

All they have here at work is those fake creamers and they are so gross. You do need to empty a billion into your drink just to make a difference. And im suspicious of something that doesn’t need to be refrigerated. I buy a container of soy milk and keep it at work for cereal, tea, iced coffee. Its much healthier and, more importantly, yummier.

Great information that I didn’t “really” want to know because I drink non-dairy creamer every day. Now I need to rethink this. My health appreciates the information buy my taste buds are pretty mad at you.

Great post!
