Electrical conductivity (EC) is a measure of how conductive the water is to electrical current. Greater the ion concentration, greater is the EC. Generally higher the EC, higher is the total dissolved solids. Electrical Conductivity is an indirect measure for finding the total dissolved solids in a water body.
Recommendations vary based on organization. For example, the World Health Organization recommends keeping added sugar intake to 10% of total calories. For the average 2000 calorie-diet that's a maximum of 50 grams.The American Heart Association recommends 6 teaspoons of sugar for women and 9 for men (1 teaspoon of sugar has about 4g of sugar).The primary source of added sugars are soft drinks and other sugar-sweetened beverages.or the average 2000 calorie-diet that's a maximum of 50 grams.

On average, in 2004, Canadians consumed 110.0 grams of sugar a day, the equivalent of 26 teaspoons. This amounted to 21.4% of their total daily calorie intake. Absolute daily sugar consumption varied substantially with age (Figure 1). It was lowest among women aged 71 or older (83 grams or 20 teaspoons), and highest among teenage boys aged 14 to 18 (172 grams or 41 teaspoons). In every age group, males consumed significantly more sugar than did females.
