The diet contains different types of sugar. Some are added to foods during production or cooking, while some are naturally found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, honey and milk. Over-added sugar consumption in recent years is an important topic of research on the potential negative health effects of non-metabolic diseases, such as tooth fractures, overweight and obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. It has also been that the diet quality of individuals who are added to energy intake is low. Health professionals have recommended to limit the added sugar intake for many years. As a result of increasing scientific evidence, the World Health Organization (WHO) updated the sugar intake guide in 2015 and focused on added sugar plus honey, which is defined as natural sugar in fruit waters. The new guidelines suggest that free sugar is <10% of the total energy in the diet, and that the total energy is reduced to <5% for additional health benefits. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) will publish the Scientific-Based Tolerable Supreme Consumption (UL) for Dietetic Sugar, which is presented to the public and provided from all sources by the end of 2021. National authorities need to support the creation of a healthy nutritional environment to reduce dietary/free sugar intake and to establish, implement and monitor national nutritional and nutritional policies.
