Can you have non dairy creamer before a blood test?
That might depend on what the blood test is for. If you are doing fasting labwork for cholesterol or diabetes, it can effect the results. Even though the non dairy creamer is cholesterol free, it does contain sugars. These sugars can increase the fasting sugar level as well as the triglyceride portion of the cholesterol. It is recommended that if you are asked to be fasting for a lab, that you only drink water or black coffee prior to the lab.

Is coffee bad for high cholesterol?
Yes, in a round about way. Coffee has no cholesterol. Cholesterol in the diet only comes from animal products, no plants have cholesterol. Cholesterol is produced by the liver in animals. Coffee however does have cafestol which activates an acid receptor called FXR that affects how the liver regulates the cholesterol it produces, in effect elevating cholesterol levels in the blood. Cafestol is present in the natural oils of the coffee bean, paper filters used in brewing coffee can trap those oils and in effect reduce the cafestol in the brewed coffee.
