Black Coffee VS White Coffee

Most people would drink a cup of coffee each day to get a daily boost in energy levels! Depending on what you put in your coffee, as well as how much of it you drink, you may be consuming more calories than you think!

A cup of black coffee (240ml) coffee has only 28 kcal, far less calories than coffee with milk and sugar added (about 280 kcal). In addition, black coffee has only trace amounts of total fat. In contrast, a same cup of coffee with milk/cream contains 5.3g – 6.7g of total fat. So for those who are concern about their calorie intake, black coffee will be a more suitable choice.

However, as black coffee relaxes sphincter muscles and can potentially trigger acid reflux, those with acid reflux problems may need to limit or avoid black coffee consumption as black coffee may aggravate the condition.
