Half and Half is good for you when consumed in small quantities but too much can be fattening and bad.

Half and Half does contain cholesterol and saturated fat so if you have high cholesterol the half and half could raise your cholesterol levels.

For coffee half and half is a healthier alternative to most other coffee creamers but too much of it can be bad.

For the most part, a splash of half-and-half in your coffee every day isn't going to impact your health too much.

Although if you're at an increased risk for cardiovascular health, it's worth it to consider switching to a substitute lower in sugar and saturated fat.

It is crucial to note that coffee with sugar or creamer can raise blood sugar levels.

If you have diabetes, a good rule of thumb is to start with black (unsweetened) coffee.

Then, if needed, you can add a small amount of Sweetener.

For most people with diabetes, it's best to stick with a small amount of regular sugar or a natural alternative with a low glycemic index.
