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.

Most adult men should consume no more than 37.5 grams (150 calories) or nine teaspoons of added sugar per day. Food items that contain high amounts of added sugar include soft drinks, fruit drinks, alcoholic beverages and processed foods such as frozen dinners and desserts. These items should be eaten sparingly.
