🍂 Pumpkin Spice: More Than Just a Latte?
Crisp leaves, cosy knits… and pumpkin spice everywhere. But what’s really in this autumn favourite — and does it actually do anything for your health? Let’s take a look 👇
🔎 What’s Inside the Blend
●Cinnamon — may support blood sugar balance (but you’d need much more than a latte sprinkle).
●Ginger — helps with nausea, bloating & circulation.
●Nutmeg, cloves & allspice — flavourful, but limited proven health benefits in small amounts.
💡 The Feel-Good Factor
Your pumpkin spice latte isn’t a health drink — sugar outweighs any spice perks. BUT the scent & taste trigger sensory nostalgia 🕯️, reminding us of warmth, family, and autumn comfort.
✅ Smarter Ways to Enjoy It
●Add spice blend to oats, smoothies, or yoghurt
●Brew ginger or cinnamon tea for a sugar-free fix
●Try homemade pumpkin spice coffee with oat milk + maple
✨ Takeaway: Pumpkin spice is about comfort, not cure. Enjoy the vibes — just don’t expect your PSL to be a wellness booster.
