Include added sugars in nutrition facts

Many of us need to know how much added sugar we are taking in, not just total sugar. Added sugars are required on nutrition labels, and therefore the information is readily available.
This is needed because:
"....natural sugars in foods such as fruit is not linked to negative health effects, since the amount of sugar tends to be modest and is "packaged" with fiber and other healthful nutrients. On the other hand, our bodies do not need, or benefit from, eating added sugar. "(source: https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/)
I'd use this: Daily
