Dietary and Metabolic Impact of Fruit Juice Consumption (FJ) Systematic Review (2014)
Welcome to the Dietary and Metabolic Impact of Fruit Juice Consumption EAL project. This project was published in 2014. Highlights of this project include:
- Target audience of adults and children.
- Four (4) sub-topics of Weight Status or Adiposity in Children; Dietary Intake and Nutrient Adequacy in Children; Blood Lipid Levels in Adults; and Markers of Antioxidant and Oxidant Status in Adults.
Key Findings: This systematic research found children who consume 100% fruit juice tend to consume more calcium and potassium and are at lower risk of inadequacy for these two nutrients. There doesn't appear to be a link between weight and fruit juice consumption in children. More research is needed to determine any relationships between fruit juice consumption and cholesterol levels and antioxidants status in adults. Use the links on the left to access the evidence analysis questions and results.
The Academy is updating its way of extracting data from studies for analysis. This is the first project to use a highly structured
Data Extraction Tool (DET) replacing the evidence analysis worksheet. This tool allows for a more rigorous and in-depth syntheses. The look of this project will have a slightly different look.from other projects including the 'worksheet' and the reporting of outcomes. New techology allows for these imporved methods.
