If a person does not eat sweets daily but takes much sugar in tea, what should be understood?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Sugar added to tea also contributes to total daily sugar and energy intake
Sugar added to tea is free or added sugar and supplies energy, even though it is consumed as a beverage rather than as a solid sweet. Several cups with multiple spoonfuls can make the daily total substantial and may support excess calorie intake, dental caries and metabolic risk. A complete diet assessment must count sugar in tea, coffee and other drinks; therefore A is correct.
