Coffee creamer
Coffee creamer and sunblock contain titanium dioxide, an ultraviolet radiation blocker that doubles as a whitening agent. Besides hiding in many conventional creamers, it’s also found in seemingly ‘healthy’ bottles like So Delicious’ coconut milk-based varieties.
The additive has been proven to cause liver and tissue damage in mice, and may also have health implications in humans, according to a recent review of the chemical. Coffee creamer is also typically packed with trans fats, often hiding under its lesser-known name: hydrogenated oil. Pretty much all of Coffee Mate’s products have this unwanted ingredient that has been shown to diminish memory in adults under 45 years old.
