Sugars occur naturally in fruit, vegetables and dairy foods and are added to foods for flavour, texture and colour. You should aim to consume no more than your recommended intake and limit foods that are high in added sugars and low in other nutrients. The reference value for sugars for an average adult is 90 grams.
The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends limiting the amount of added sugars you consume to no more than half of your daily discretionary calories allowance. For most American women, thatâs no more than 100 calories per day, or about 6 teaspoons of sugar. For men, itâs 150 calories per day, or about 9 teaspoons.
