• Assessment
    What is the association between consumption of 100% fruit juice and the dietary intake and nutrient adequacy of vitamin A in children?
    • Conclusion

      There is limited evidence that children who consume 100% fruit juice may have higher intake and adequacy of Vitamin A. However, the published research does not report carotenoid intake (a plant-based source of Vitamin A).

    What is the association between consumption of 100% fruit juice and the dietary intake and nutrient adequacy of calcium in children?
    • Conclusion

      Based on limited evidence (two of five studies), consumption of 100% fruit juice may be associated with higher intake of calcium. However, the published research was not clear on reporting if the juice was fortified with calcium or not.

    • Conclusion

      Children who consume 100% fruit juice may have higher levels of dietary fiber intake; however, limited evidence (one study) indicates adequacy of fiber intake is unaffected by consumption of fruit juice.

    What is the association between consumption of 100% fruit juice and the dietary intake and nutrient adequacy of iron in children?
    • Conclusion

      Children who consume 100% fruit juice may have marginally greater levels of iron intake. However, the dietary source of this association is unclear.
