部分原文報道如下：
Excessive consumption of added sugars promotes heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, tooth decay, and other health problems. For years, the American Heart Association has sensibly recommended no more than about six teaspoons of added sugar a day for women and no more than about nine teaspoons a day for men. Today the AHA is proposing new curbs on added sugars in children. Specifically, it recommends that children aged two to 18 consume no more than six teaspoons of added sugars per day, and that children and teens limit intake of sugary drinks—including sports and energy drinks—to no more than eight ounces per week. Children under age two should not consume foods or beverages with added sugars, according to the AHA.
