Question: how many grams of sugar should i eat for weight loss?
Answer: On a 2,000 calorie diet, that's 50 grams (or 12 teaspoons) per day, but calorie needs vary individually. If 50 grams already sounded strict to you, the American Heart Association recommends that women consume no more than 24 grams of added sugar per day, and men stay under 36 grams added sugar per day.
