Large flavored lattes and blended coffees can carry multiple pumps of syrup, whipped toppings, and heavy cream style bases, pushing them into dessert territory. Liquid calories also deliver little chewing driven satiety. Relying on these for morning energy can mask poor sleep while spiking and dropping blood sugar when paired with minimal food. Opt for a smaller size, unsweetened milk or fortified plant milk, and limit flavor shots. Combine your coffee with a balanced meal featuring protein and fiber so caffeine absorption is steadier and morning focus lasts. Plain black coffee still lacks needed nutrients, so complement rather than replace breakfast.
