No, it is generally recommended to avoid consuming anything except water during a 12-hour fast before a blood test. Coffee contains caffeine and other compounds that can affect your blood test results, so it is best to abstain from it until after the test is complete.

User responses: No. From what I have read caffeine does affect cholesterol levels and/or the way they can be interpreted when reading results of a cholesterol blood test. I would suggest that you be clean of any caffeine - three or more days ahead of time - to obtain a caffeine-free result.Advice seems to vary. Some say that black coffee (no sugar, no milk) is fine. Sources for that listed below.
