When I'm filling in my diary I don't add my coffees in - about 6-10 cups a day (probably not great, I know). I don't have milk or sugar, so I've always assumed it has no real nutritional value, or not enough to include it in my diary anyway.
Should I be including it in my diary? Does it have anything in it to warrant it?
Cheers!

If you track potassium, and you use an entry that includes the potassium value, you'll find that that much coffee makes a substantial contribution to your meeting your daily potassium needs.
Other than that, I think 10 cups of black coffee is about 20 calories and maybe 4 or 5 grams of proteins (but you have to log it all as one entry, or at least two cups per entry, otherwise the the protein disappears due to rounding -- less than half a gram per cup).0 -
Very interesting, thank you. I didn't even know about it containing potassium before.0
