If you’re like many people around the world, you may head to your local Starbucks and buy a latte now and then. In fact, Starbucks sold approximately $26.51 billion worth of drinks, foods, and merchandise globally in 2019 (1). That’s a lot of lattes.
And while each latte might only set you back $6 or so, the real price is in your health.
You see, you’ve got a choice when it comes to Eggnog Lattes.
You can spend your money and health on a latte that contains ultra-processed ingredients, or you can step it up with a nourishing Keto Zone Healthy Eggnog Latte.
At your nearest drive-up, it’s so easy to roll in and grab a tasty commercial eggnog latte. Hand over a few bucks, and receive a steaming hot treat.

In one study, participants who ate the Standard American Diet consumed 14.4% of the total weight from ultra-processed foods. This accounted for 29.1% of their total daily caloric intake. Incredibly, with every 10% increase in ultra-processed foods, the risk for all-cause death increased by 14%!

Other studies have found that when caffeine and liquid sugar are consumed, the caffeine impairs sensitivity to insulin, which impairs the body’s ability to deal with the sugar (4). Meta-analysis has shown this is consistently an issue, for both healthy subjects and those with impaired blood sugars to start (5).
It’s literally killing us.
