Product Description
Sugar math is fun for everyone to learn!
Adults can have fun learning the ins and outs of how much sugar they can consume and where it comes from.
No more than 10% of your calories should come from sugar. The average American eats two to three times this amount, and that is one factor that leads to being overweight and obese. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans panel of experts chose sugar consumption habits as one of the major changes that consumers need. The World Health Organization and many research studies recommend 10% of daily calories.
Most of the sugar in the diet comes from beverages, desserts, candy, or other processed snacks.
One can of soda contains about 33 grams of sugar, so it is more than a half-day supply for most people. If you add a cup of sweetened yogurt, you are already at your limit when you do not even have dessert yet.
Use this poster to remind people about their sugar budget in classrooms, wellness fairs, cafeterias, employee break rooms, hallways, bulletin boards, offices, and anywhere you want.
The bright colors are people-pleasing and motivational. They are warm and positive. Math is always fun for kids and adults alike. Watch their faces light up as they show off their sugar math skills to friends and coworkers. The kids will have fun tripping up their parents.
You can have many good conversations with this lesson from the Current Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
It also makes a great classroom poster and can be used as a school cafeteria poster.
