Added Sugars
SUMMARY OF ADDED SUGARS PER SERVING
Dietary Guidelines for Americans, published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, recommends limiting calories from added sugars to less than 10% of total calories.
Added Sugars such as table sugar, corn syrup, sucrose, and dextrose contribute calories without important nutrients. Added sugars are found in candies, jams, ice cream, salad dressings, sports drinks, and other foods.
With that in mind, take note that the 13 grams of added sugars in one serving contribute about 50 calories. That’s 23% of the total 230 calories per serving.
