Milk Sugar Content (per 8 oz. serving): 24 grams sugar (12 grams natural sugar, 12 grams added sugar)
According to https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/food-types/how-does-sugar-in-our-diet-affect-our-health/ https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/food-types/how-does-su...:
Adults should have no more than 30g of free sugars a day,
(roughly equivalent to 7 sugar cubes).
Children aged 7 to 10 should have no more than 24g
of free sugars a day (6 sugar cubes).
So one small carton they have at school has 30% of an adult's daily intake of added sugar.
- astura 10mo agoWhat's your point? What does that have anything to do with the comment you're responding to?
- troupo 10mo agoMy point is that no, chocolate milk isn't healthy at all.
- 5upplied_demand 10mo agoBut that wasn't your point at all. You said: > As for chicolate milk: there's probably as much added sugar in it as in a can of Cola. Your own follow-up comment proved this to be false. No need to dig in further.
