How much sugar should we consume?

Consuming minimum amounts of added sugars is crucial for maintaining health. According to Dr. Robert Lustig, a safe guideline is to limit added sugars to no more than one teaspoon (approximately 4 grams) per serving. It's important to be vigilant about hidden sugars in products, as food labels can be misleading due to various names used for sugar ingredients. Always look for the "added sugars" line on nutritional labels for clarity 1.

Always consult with healthcare professionals before making significant dietary changes.
