Nutrition Analysis

The FDA found it difficult to maintain a daily permissible level of under 2,000 calories if the calories from the extra sugar intake exceeded 10 percent of the total because studies show that Americans eat about 13 percent of their daily calories in extra sugar.

On the other hand, the percentage of fat content that is being emphasized on the label has been reduced, reflecting recent studies showing that calorie intake and sugar intake are the main causes of chronic diseases such as obesity and heart disease. This resulted in the elimination of the ‘calories from fat’ category and the separation of total fat, saturated fat and trans fat, as is the case now, according to the study, which found that the type was more important than the amount of fat consumed.
