Nobody benefits from refined carbohydrates!


Question
I am 15 years old. i weigh about 140-150 pounds. i want to know how much sugar (in grams) should i eat a day.

Answer
Dear Shadow,

You don't NEED to eat any sugar. Sugar is a refined carbohydrate that doesn't bring in any nutrients but pure calories. Your better choices are fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. To read more about nutritional requirements, following the links:
