Monday's Health Tip: Are you too sweet?

The American Heart Association has recently provided new recommendations for the amount of added sugar people should consume in their diet. I've always thought I eat pretty healthy, but this new bit of news has me seriously reconsidering my dietary choices. According to the new recommendations, women shouldn't consume more than 100 calories (about 25 grams) of added sugars a day; men, 150. This averages out to about 6 teaspoons for women, and 9 teaspoons for men.
