CONS / PNC does not offer loan consolidation or front-end rate reductions when you apply for loans. VERDICT / PNC is a good college student loan solution if you are a current student, but the lack of loan consolidation hinders its long-term benefits.
The average American eats about 22 teaspoons of added sugar every day. This adds up to over 70 pounds of sugar a year. Even worse, American teens are eating closer to 34 teaspoons a day. The result on our bodies is less than sweet. Eating too much sugar can lead to unhealthy weight gain, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol.
Currently, Western European adults consume an average of 101 grams of sugar per day, while in South America the figure rises to 130 grams. Sugar represents around 16-17% of an adultâs daily energy intake in the United Kingdom and Spain. In Portugal that rises to 25%. So Portuguese adults should be consuming 80% less sugar every day if they are to meet the WHOâs ultimate recommendation of 5% energy intake (25 grams) of sugar per day.
