What it is

Fruit and vegetable juices are liquids extracted from fruits and vegetables. This is typically done by pressing or crushing the produce, followed by filtration to remove solids. They can be used in their natural form or concentrated by removing water.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add fruit and vegetable juices to foods and beverages primarily for their flavor, color, and nutritional value. They can also serve as natural sweeteners. Common food types include beverages, dairy products like yogurt, ice cream, and various snack foods.

Health notes

Fruit and vegetable juices are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They provide vitamins, minerals, and beneficial plant compounds. While they offer nutrients, concentrated juices can contribute to sugar intake, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend no amount of added sugars. JECFA and EFSA typically evaluate specific food additives, not general food ingredients like fruit and vegetable juices, so no specific ADI has been set for them as a whole.

Allergen info

Fruit and vegetable juices are not considered major allergens themselves. However, individuals with specific fruit or vegetable allergies should check product labels for the types of juices used.
