It converts a chosen percentage of daily calories into added sugar grams using 4 calories per gram of sugar. A 2,000 kcal day at 10% equals about 50 g of added sugar.
The 10% value is an upper-limit style target. The 5% option is stricter and useful if you want a more conservative daily goal.
This calculator is intended for added sugar, such as sugar in sweetened drinks, candy, desserts, syrups and packaged foods. Whole fruit and plain dairy are usually tracked separately.
