A member asked:
How many grams of natural sugars a day should i be eating as a maximum when trying to lose weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends...: This is a good question with no simple answer. More important than the amount of natural sugars is the degree to which they will raise your sugar, measured as glycemic index/load & carohydrrate density.
