If you are on a standard 2,000-calorie diet, this means that you should be eating no more than 500 calories from sugar, or 125 grams. Like all carbohydrates, sugar contains 4 calories per gram. The USDA recommendations are lower than the IOM's.
If youâre an average person who is moderately active and of a normal body weight, youâre probably eating about 2,000 calories per day. 5 percent of 2,000 calories is 100 calories. Since sugar has 4 calories per gram, you have to stay under 20 grams of sugar per day to keep your sugar consumption to under 5 percent.In comparison, the average American consumes about 0.4 pounds of sugar per day, or about 190 grams of sugar.f youâre an average person who is moderately active and of a normal body weight, youâre probably eating about 2,000 calories per day. 5 percent of 2,000 calories is 100 calories.
