    Here’s a short reminder that the WHO recommends limiting the daily intake of sugars to 10% of your calorie supply (approx. 50g sugar/day for me) for beneficial health effects.

    Limiting intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake (2, 7) is part of a healthy diet. A further reduction to less than 5% of total energy intake is suggested for additional health benefits (7).

    Orange juice where i live has 10g sugars in 100ml of juice, so if you drink 1 L of it, you already take in 100g of sugars all in one go.

      Implying 1l of orange juice is not a lot, or at least doesn’t feel like a lot?
