Jinsi ya kukokotoa Sugar Intake

- 2AHA recommends < 25g/day for women, < 36g/day for men
- 3Sum sugars from all food and drink sources including hidden sugars
Mifano Iliyotatuliwa
Ingizo
2000 kcal/day diet
Matokeo
Max 50g free sugars (10% limit) or 25g for stricter target
Free sugars only — not naturally occurring sugars in whole fruit
Makosa ya Kawaida ya Kuepuka
