How many grams of sugar per day is a diabetic permitted?
Sugar & diabetes Diabetes Canada suggests Canadians:
- Reduce their free sugar consumption to less than 10% of their entire daily calorie (energy) intake. This corresponds to around 50 grams (12 teaspoons) of free sugars per day on a 2000-calorie diet.
- Reduce your consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks (SSB) and replace them with water.
- For lifelong health, promote the consumption of complete foods and decrease the intake of free sugars.
Diabetes Canada advises federal, provincial/territorial, and local governments to:
- The Canadian government should impose a tax on SSBs and utilize the proceeds to benefit Canadians’ health.
- The Canadian government maintains accurate nutrition labeling for packaged goods, including the quantity of free sugars listed in the Nutrition Facts Table.
- Federal, provincial, and territory governments promptly implement the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) to restrict the marketing of unhealthy foods and drinks to minors.
- A Federal, Provincial, and Territorial Working Group on Food and Beverage Marketing to Children is formed to establish, implement, and monitor restrictions on food and beverage marketing to children.
- In all regions, the federal, provincial, and territory governments encourage increased accessibility and affordability of healthful meals.
- The Government of Canada implements laws mandating the labeling of free sugars on restaurant menus so Canadians may make better educated food choices.
- Recreational activities, schools, leisure centers, and public locations do not sell SSBs.
- Water is provided for free at events, schools, recreation centers, and government buildings.
- Until legislation is adopted, retailers and food producers halt promoting food and beverages to youngsters.

- Eliminating SSBs from Diabetes Canada events
- Provide complimentary water at all Diabetes Canada activities and sites.

- Consistent with Diabetes Canada’s corporate partnership policy, refrain from partnering with businesses whose goods are damaging to health and/or associated to the onset or risk of diabetes.
- Promote greater study on the direct effects of free sugars on diabetes and other chronic diseases.
