据美国心脏协会消息，8月23日美国心脏协会提出限制添加糖摄入量的新建议指出，儿童与青少年每周喝含糖饮料不宜超过220毫升。
据悉，过量摄入添加糖可引发心脏病、二型糖尿病、肥胖、蛀牙及其他健康问题。
根据新建议，2-18岁人群每天摄入添加糖的量不宜超过6茶匙，儿童和青少年每周饮用含糖饮料（包含运动饮料和能量饮料）不宜超过8盎司（约220毫升）。2岁以下儿童不应摄入含添加糖的食品或饮料。
部分原文报道如下：
Excessive consumption of added sugars promotes heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, tooth decay, and other health problems. For years, the American Heart Association has sensibly recommended no more than about six teaspoons of added sugar a day for women and no more than about nine teaspoons a day for men. Today the AHA is proposing new curbs on added sugars in children. Specifically, it recommends that children aged two to 18 consume no more than six teaspoons of added sugars per day, and that children and teens limit intake of sugary drinks—including sports and energy drinks—to no more than eight ounces per week. Children under age two should not consume foods or beverages with added sugars, according to the AHA.
