How many grams of sugar should an average perosn be getting, if they are trying to maintain/lose weight? Did you know there are mOre calories in a can of regular soda than there are in a bag of hersy mini kisses.. 
Re: Sugar
You shouldnt be taking any processed or white sugar at all
You can use honey instead or take your daily requirement of sugar through fruits. They are the best.
If you are trying to lose weight, then dont even go near anything that contains white sugar.

Re: Sugar
Sugar first of all. Basically sucrose. Then comes the carbs...since they are readily broken down into sugar when they are digested. Then come the protein and the fats.
natural fruit sugars, like fructose are ok. but you have to watch out the ratio of sucrose vs fructose. basically means tons of grapes and mangoes bad, tons of apples and bananas good.
Also it matters a lot of you are type 1 or type 2 diabetic. type 2's have to watch out more for the fat content (since cholesterol is a big problem attached to diabetes), and type 2 have to watch out more for the carbs and sugars.
