Men shouldn't have more than 9 teaspoons daily, while women shouldn't have more than 6 teaspoons. This amounts to a max of 37.5 grams of sugar or 150 calories from sugar for men, and 25 grams of sugar or 100 calories from sugar for women. When youâre reading the nutrition facts label, youâll see the grams of sugar clearly listed under the total carbohydrates.
The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends most women get no more than 24 grams of added sugar per day. That's about 6 teaspoons, or 100 caloriesâa little less than the amount in one can of soda. Thing is, the average American woman eats about 18 daily teaspoons. Sugar is hidden in unlikely foods, from salad dressing to crackers, which can push you past 24 grams.
