Creamer use during lent

ServentofGod

A lot of people in my chruch consider the use of non dairy creamer okay to be used during lent. But all creamers contain a milk derivative called sodium caseinate. I was wondering what your opinions are about this? I am a college student and I really need coffee because it helps me stay up late and study but I find it really hard to swallow coffee without creamer. Do you consider the use of creamer okay during lent?

I know lent is not just about food but I was wondering about the use of creamer during lent and would like to hear people's opinion. Thanks
