    I’ve stopped taking any form of sweetener in my coffee but was advised organic stevia is ok to use. Is this correct?

    Also, I’m still using skimmed milk, is this ok to use or should I be using full fat milk or refrain from dairy milk and use almond milk instead?

    hi Shankley,
    Full fat dairy milk is better than skimmed according to studies done re. weightloss, quoted by MM. But you might need to go to 2 percent for a while, get used to it and then full fat. I also prefer unhomogenised milk, as it tastes better to me, and you can use a tea strainer to catch the creamy bits in the beginning till you get used to them. I don’t drink plain milk but use it in coffee and other recipes.

    I swapped from using sugar to using grass fed butter in my coffee, but liquid stevia is the best of all the sweeteners. It can still leave you craving sweets though, be aware if it has that effect on you. Best wishes.
