Consumo de zumos de frutas en el marco de una alimentación saludable: Documento de Postura del Comité Científico “5 al día”

Abstract

This article is the adapted version of the publication standards of the Actividad Dietética journal in the Position Paper of the Scientific Committee “5 a day” with respect to the Consumption of fruit juices in the framework of a healthy diet. The position was approved at the Vth Scientific Committee Meeting held in Madrid on April 4th, 2009. The controversy that arose on the criteria and parameters for assessing fruit and/or vegetable juices within the “5 a day” Scientific Committee itself has prompted the creation of this position paper to assess, justify and reach a consensus on including juices in the recommendations for consuming fruits or vegetables fostered by the “5 a day” Association, as well as the declarations allowed on consumption.
