Sexual violence. Sexual violence is a serious public health and human rights problem with both short-and long-term consequences on women's physical, mental, and sexual and reproductive health.
For an average 2000-calorie diet, the World Health Organization recommends that a maximum of 10% of the total calories come from added sugar. This equates to less than 50 grams of added sugar per day. Reducing daily intake of sugar can improve diabetes control. 2  The amount of sugar eaten daily can vary based on activity level and overall health. 3  Be sure your physician is aware of any specific dietary modifications. 4  Women may reduce the daily sugar intake to 17 g per day and men can aim for 25 g per day.
This means that if 2,000 calories a day is about your average, you shouldnât have more than 100 calories from added sugar. Because carbohydrates contain 4 calories per gram, this amounts to a maximum of 25 grams of added sugar per day. Sugar, being a carbohydrate, takes up some of your total carb allotment for the day. While your specific carbohydrate needs may vary, generally getting 45 to 60 grams at each meal is a starting point for managing diabetes, the American Diabetes Association suggests.
