Health organizations suggest limiting "added" or "free" sugars—those added during processing or found in honey and syrups—to reduce risks like heart disease and type 2 diabetes. No more than 36g (approx. 9 teaspoons) per day.

The FDA Nutrition Facts Label lists "Total Sugars" (natural + added) and "Added Sugars" separately. 4 grams equals roughly 1 teaspoon.

Less than 24g (6 teaspoons) per day; children under age 2 should have no added sugar. How to Spot Sugar Content in Food

No more than 25g (approx. 6 teaspoons) per day.

However, if you are looking for information related to "sugar content" (a phonetic similarity),

A product is generally considered "high sugar" if it contains more than 22.5g of total sugar per 100g, and "low sugar" if it has 5g or less.

Look for ingredients ending in "-ose" (glucose, fructose, maltose) or terms like corn syrup, molasses, and fruit juice concentrates on the American Heart Association website. How Much Sugar Is Too Much? - American Heart Association

    • Gracias a ti, por comentar, Thairy.

      Sin haber perdido interés con el paso del tiempo, Gattaca bordea hoy la frontera entre ficción y actualidad, en unos momentos difíciles, en que la ciencia-ficción deja de ser ficción, sin llegar a ser ciencia.

      Saludos !
