Short sleep duration has been associated with added sugar intake, and both are risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases (1, 2) . The aim of this project is to analyses the relationship between added sugars (AS) intake and sleep duration in Mexican adults. Healthy subjects (women and men: 18 – 50 y, BMI 18.5 – 39.9 kg/M2) from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa, participated in this free-living study. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, and clinical data was used for characterisation. During the 4-week study period, participants completed a 7-day actigraphy record, and four 24-h dietary recall. Sleep duration was objectively assessed using the MotionWare® software. To estimate AS intake, by using a previously developed methodology (3) , the work team created a food composition table, containing updated AS content for 1706 food items. Protocol was approved by the ethics and research com-mittee of the Faculty of Nutrition and Gastronomy (CE-FCNYG-2021-SEP-001). Data, analysed by ANOVA and ANCOVA with energy intake (kcal/d) and age (y) as covariates, are presented as mean ± SD. Twenty one healthy subjects (13 W, 8 M) completed the study, for comparison, the sample was categorised into three groups, based on sleep duration
