Processed sugar is not necessary at all in anyone's daily diet. It should be avoided. Our body gets enough carbohydrates from ordinary foods and converts raw carbs to sugars as needed. Grains, fruits, and other carbs provide enough(sometimes too much) sugars as is. Dried fruits such as rasins are especially full of sugars. To add even more processed sugar is harmful. As a dentist, I see daily the harm done by hard candy, chocolate, soda, cough drops (98% sugar), sweetened tea, coffee (with either sugar and sometimes powdered cream substitute (contains high % sugar), pastries, pies , cakes, cookies. NONE OF THESE FOODS ARE NECESSARY AND SHOULD BE AVOIDED UNLESS IT IS A RARE SPECIAL OCCASION. Even worse, many of our schools support certain school programs by selling candy, having soda machines in the schools, having juice machines in the schools (just as harmful as soda), and letting teachers give out candy as a reward to children. If schools found out that something that they served in the cafeteria caused a child's toe to fall off occasionally, I bet they would quit serving what caused the toe to fall off. Am I right?? Well, in the same respect, how can schools allow processed sugars, which cause teeth ro rot and fall out or have to be pulled, to be served in their institution. How can they allow a teacher to award a kid with a substance that is known by EVERYONE to cause tooth decay??? Hope I have been of some help to you. Consult a dietician if you disagree with anything that I have said.
It's more about what you're eating along with the sugar that matters. Almost all of the calories from fruit are from sugar (100% sugar oh noes!!!) but fruit is extremely nutritious as well. You shouldn't limit your consumption of fruit at all based on sugar content. However, empty sugars, ingredients that contain sugar and no real nutrients, can be completely eliminated. White sugar, cane juice, corn syrup and any other empty sugar can be completely eliminated. The number of grams in one serving does not matter. The thing that matters is how many total grams per 24hr period are you eating after adding all the servings? Sugar is store as glycogen in the liver and body cells. Liver glycogen serves as the bodies supplier of glucose after the body cell storage is depleted. So the liver holds 100-120 grams of glucose total. Some proteins are glucogenic, meaning that they are converted into glucose for use, albeit a small ammount. But how much does your muscles hold? I will estimate that your 300grams total. For those of you in aerobics or running, you will feel better after a workout if you refill your muscle sugar stores, which makes you much less sluggish; but, this replacement is only for hard working atheletes, not for people looking for an excuse to put down that supersize shake after a walk to the counter. Oh, by the way, when burning calories (kcal). 1 gram glucose = 4.3 kcal.
You don't need any sugar per se in your diet. Sugars are carbohydrates, of which 300g are recommended in a 2000 calorie diet -- but not all of your carbohydrates should be sugars! Only a fraction should be sugars, if any. Refined sugars are completely unneeded and provide only calories from a nutritional perspective -- they can be eliminated. So 0 grams of refined sugars are recommended in a day. Fruits contain a large amount of natural sugars, which are less rapidly absorbed. In addition, fruit offers a number of other nutritional benefits as well, so a portion of your 300g of carbohydrates should be sugars from fruit, since fruit should be included in one's diet. Instead of looking for a number, look to reduce empty sugars (such as high fructose corn syrup, granulated sugar, cane juice), while getting such sugars instead from nutritionally beneficial sources such as fruits and vegetables.
Sugar intake is typically measures in Grams or 1,000 milligrams. Each gram of sugar supplies 4 calories in the form of simple carbohydrates. Healthy sugar consumption is dependent on many factors. Not all all sugar is created equal, sugar consumed via fruit or vegetables are are often digested slower into the body which will typically provide a more even blood sugar level as well as providing beneficial nutrients. Sugar found in foods like candy and soda provide almost no nourishment and are digested very quickly, giving you a spike of high blood sugar which soon dissipates, often leaving you hungry or tired. If the goal is a healthy diet it is important to minimize foods with processed sugar and starch and focus more on foods that have not been altered much from when they left the earth. But if a number must be assigned to your sugar intake, my suggestion would be to eat less than 100g of processed sugar a day.
Any other questions let me know I have more information on the effects of food etc. -Allen
Sugar intake should be kept as low as possible, and processed sugar should never be consumed on its own, eg in fizzy drinks.
i take like 250 grams
A 100 lb person on Earth would weigh 6.7 lbs on Pluto. that is equivalent to 3039.07 grams
In measure's of weight, there are 28.3495231 gram's in an ounce. Therefore: 1.8ouncesX28.3495231=51.02914158 grams. I have no clue where the person came up with 25 grams...

Sugars are carbohydrates. So 10 grams of sugar is 10 grams of carbohydrates.
grams of what?
None. You do not need any added sugars for health or weight loss.
The normal daily requirement of protein differs from person to person. However, as a general rule of thumb, however many kilograms one weighs, one should eat that amount in grams. If you only know your weight in pounds, then divide that by two and that is how many grams of protein one should eat.
