    FDA recommended doses of sugar is no more than 40g of ADDED sugar. If you're getting 24g of sugar from oatmeal and sugar, don't worry about it. Worry more about the processed sugars and fake sugars - such as splenda, aspartame, sugar alcohol, high fructose corn syrup, etc.

    I try to eat 2-3 fruits per day and always go over on sugar. I don't worry about it, so long as the majority are from natural sources.
