The WHO
recommends that adults consume no more than 100g of total sugars per day and no
more than one sweetened drink. Most of the sugars consumed today are hidden in
processed foods that are generally not considered sweet. A teaspoon of ketchup,
for example, contains about 4 grams of sugar. A can of soda contains up to 40
grams. So, give preference to water, if possible tea, coffee (without excess)
and unsweetened infusions. Learn to indulge yourself with less sweetened foods.
