I have a little honey in my tea and did then. in fact, I think I'll be sitting down to tea in about an hour or so. factor the carbs into your daily totals.

I never did......but then again I use so much artificial sweetener that it can't be good.

I need to reduce the amounts of Splenda and such I use.

I may give small amounts of honey a try even though I know there will be more carbs involved.

I don't drink sweetener (artificial or natural) in tea. Why not try it without anything and see if you like it.

One tea that is plenty sweet without anything added is Harney & Sons Hot Cinnamon Spice. I love it and there is a Decaf version that tastes great.

You should discuss with your NUT or Dr. my program does not promote use of honey due to it being high in sugar.

I absolutely had raw honey with tea for several weeks following my surgery. RAW organic honey contains many highly nutritive properties that help heal wounds and combat infection.

Caffeine is a diuretic, so it can lead to dehydration
