What should I drink in my tea?

[240 is Back]

Sugar makes you fat, insulin, etc.

Splenda and friends are bad for you too, right?

Plain tea makes me nauseous.  Any advice?

Honey.

Honey and sugar are not any different in nutritional value, calories, carbs, etc.  They just taste different.

As for "Splenda and friends", read this:

lol we went to dinner w/some people and there was a list of "drink specials" on the table and the wife glanced at it and ordered the Long Island Ice Tea ....when she finished it she ordered another one and got very loopy and later said she thought they put alcohol in her tea

Earl Grey with some low fat milk, you get used to no sugar after a while

imo sweetener...

black tea makes me feel a bit sick too

but i get huge cravings for green tea (not a fad for me, been drinking it for years)

Nothing wrong with sweeteners IMO although some of them don't make tea taste sweet enough. Personally, the closest sugar substitute I've found is Equal which I get loads of every time I'm in the US to take back to the UK with me - they don't do it over here and there's no viable alternative.
