An average American eats 17 teaspoons of added sugar a day! And how much sugar a day should he eat? The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends a sugar intake per day no more than six teaspoons for women and 9 for men, while kids younger than two years old shouldn't eat any added sugars. They shouldn’t, yet it doesn’t always mean they won’t. Added sugars may be found in formulas used for complementary feeding, and there is an association between their intake and rapid weight gain in infants and toddlers. And it is a problem, as by 2030, 250 million children will be obese. Food and drinks contain both natural and added sugars. The second ones are added during the processing of packaged foods. Why do we consider them the bad guys? They do not give anything besides calories. This added sugar intake calculator is here to help you control how much added sugars you consume, sometimes unknowingly, daily. Keep reading this article, in which we explain the consequences of exceeding the recommended sugar intake, how to search for added sugars in our diet and what healthier alternatives (such as artificial sweeteners) we have. Disclaimer: We try our best to make our Sugar Intake Calculator as precise and reliable as possible. However, this tool can never replace a professional dietitian's assessment.
