In summer, many people like to drink to quench their thirst. However, if you simply enjoy the delicious taste without controlling the intake of sugar, it is easy to fall into the "sweet trap."
The latest edition of the "Chinese Dietary Guidelines" proposes that the intake of "sugar" in daily diets should not exceed 50 grams per day. A survey conducted by the Yangcheng Evening News found that some beverages on the market currently have high sugar content, and some contain more than 70 grams of sugar. In other words, the sugar intake of drinking a bottle of beverage has exceeded the standard. Authoritative experts recommend drinking plenty of water in the summer and drinking as little as possible.
Sugar intake is more related to beverages
In 2015, the World Health Organization (WHO) published guidelines on sugar intake and updated its recommendations on sugar intake limits. The guidelines recommend that children and adults should limit their sugar intake to less than 10% of total intake to prevent obesity, dental caries and other health problems.
The recently published "Chinese Dietary Guidelines (2016)", referring to the World Health Organization's release standards, mentions for the first time the "sugar control" intake. It is recommended that no more than 50 grams per person per day, preferably within 25 grams.
Prof. Zhu Yi from the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering at China Agricultural University told a reporter from the Yangcheng Evening News that it is impossible for people to weigh the sugar intake in their daily diet. The main sources of sugar intake are related to beverages and other foods.
Lactobacillus drink sugar "exceeds"
Yesterday, the Yangcheng Evening News reporter found that there are many kinds of beverages on the market, such as lactic acid bacteria drinks, carbonated drinks, fruity drinks, herbal tea drinks, functional drinks and so on. According to the nutrition label on the box, a bottle of 500 ml of cola, sugar content of 56 grams; a bottle of 450 ml of fresh orange, sugar content of 47.7 grams; a bottle of 500 ml of ice tea, sugar content It is 48.5 grams.
In a large supermarket, the shelves of the drinks area are filled with various drinks. Wang Min, the citizen, told the Yangcheng Evening News that children like to drink lactic acid bacteria beverages and drink one bottle at a time.
The reporter found that the sugar content of lactic acid bacteria drinks was the highest among all beverages. Taking the taste of whole lactic acid bacteria drinks as an example, each bottle (435 ml) is up to 70 grams or more; followed by carbonated drinks, Pepsi (600 ml) is up to 67.2 grams per bottle; juice drinks are in third place, a bottle of 500 ml juice Drinks, sugar content 40 grams to 60 grams.
Why does the lactic acid bacteria beverage have the highest sugar content? According to Zhu Yi’s introduction, lactic acid bacteria beverages use milk or dairy products as raw materials to add water, sugar, and/or sweeteners, sour agents, fruit juices, etc., to the emulsions produced by the fermentation of lactic acid bacteria. Divided into bactericidal (non-viable) and non-sterilized (live bacteria) beverages.
Drink as little as possible in summer
It has been described as such, the drink is a "drinking water", then, which people like to drink? According to a survey, most people who like to drink beverages are young people and children. Young people prefer to drink carbonated drinks, fruit juice drinks, etc. Children prefer drinking milk drinks.
Zhu Yi said that the "Chinese Dietary Guidelines (2016)" recommend that the daily sugar intake of the human body should be controlled within 50 grams, preferably 25 grams. However, the sugar content of a bottle of lactic acid bacteria drinks, cola or juice is higher than this standard. If you drink more than one can a day, the sugar intake will be far exceeded. Excessive intake of sugar, the human heart will increase the load, will increase the risk of suffering from sweets syndrome, leading to obesity, and even trigger diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases.
She suggested that in order to be healthy, drink plenty of water in the summer and drink as little as possible.
How do you know the sugar content of the beverage?
The labeling of nutrient content on food and beverage packaging is a mandatory requirement of the country, in which energy and core nutrients (protein, fat, carbohydrates, sodium) are mandatory content of the nutrient composition table. In general, the amount of carbohydrate is approximately equal to the amount of sugar, and if it is labeled with dietary fiber, the amount of dietary fiber minus the sugar content.
