I've been trying to eat better (which seems to be working I've lost about 65lbs in a little under a year and a half)...

However I was wondering what is recommended for sugar intake... I don't eat a lot of stuff with extra sugar added, but I like fruit juices like OJ or Grape or Apple (actual fruit juice not fruit flavored juice)... These have a lot of sugar in them. From what I've read it is suggested around 40g of sugar a day, but this is for added refined sugar, not natural sugar. A glass of OJ or Grape Juice probably has that much sugar in it, but it isn't added sugar.

Thoughts, opinons, facts?

Thanks
