UuuMM: Well nutrition should not just address your sugar intake. There are other things to look at as well for a balanced and healthy nutrition. health.gov/dietaryguidelines/ is a link you can go to that will assist you. No back to your question,sugar of 100gms and less should be okay. but add proteins,vegetables

I'm supposed to refrain from eating too many sweets as I am pre-diabetic, so if I eat fresh fruits (which also have high sugar content), is that OK? Or is the sugar content in fruits 'natural', hence it's OK?
