The group found that overall, 88 percent of the products analyzed had more than the entire recommended daily serving of sugar. Just one 330-milliliter Coca-Cola, Pepsi, or 7Up contained more than 25 grams of sugar, or about six teaspoons, which exceeds consumption recommendations in every country. In the majority of instances, the amount of sugar in the drinks the group analyzed was highest in North American countries and lowest across Europe, where activists and health organizations have had more success influencing the amount of the substance in drinks.
