Sugar can be difficult when it comes to understanding how much you need. Typically is should be around 40g unless stated otherwise from your doctor. Also, try to keep it about 10% of your daily calories.

So if you are diabetic or on pro-Diabetes you shouldn't have sugar at all. And what diabetic means is it means when someone ate too much sugar or other foods that contain sugar. So that's why we always check the nutrition facts which is on the back of a pruduct but only a product that you can eat so its edible but you can also drink so the nutrition facts can also be on a drink. So if you're diabetic you should not have sugar but for your diet you can use Splenda they get it at any store and you can also use that for your delights and cakes and brownie's etc. And if you have pro- diabetes you should get splenda till it goes away a little. Okay so how much sugar should you get daily? If you are not one of the above than you can have a 15 sugars of limit each day. But just because I said that doesn't mean you can have it everyday. Try to get you limit up to 5 only because that is way good for you and try to eat more vegetables and fruits.

the average daily intake of sugar should be around 4-6grams a day but if ur on a diet then maybe try to half what ur eating at the moment

always check the back of the packets.
