Less Sugar in Children's Cereal

General Mills Inc is lowering the amount of sugar in its children's breakfast cereals to no more than 10 grams per serving from 11 grams a year ago, the latest move from a U.S. foodmaker to address childhood obesity.
It is still a lot of sugar! Compare it to only 1 gram of sugar per serving of Cheerios. Children should eat little sugar to educate their taste buds for life!

Too much sugar contributes to obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke, according to the American Heart Association, which recommends that adult women eat no more than 25 grams of added processed sugar a day, and men no more than 37.5 grams.
