The Maximum Daily Allowance (MDA) shows the maximum amount of sugar that children of all ages can have to stay healthy and avoid increasing their risk of tooth decay, obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some cancers in the future.

It’s surprising how easily a child can end up having double or even triple their Maximum Daily Allowance in one day. See how your child’s diet compares to the Maximum Daily Allowance of sugar with our free Sugar Check.
