Organic Fruit & Veggie Blend

This is a mix of various organic fruits and vegetables, often including leafy greens, berries, and other produce. The specific fruits and vegetables included can vary widely by brand. They are typically dried and powdered or processed into a juice concentrate before being blended.

Manufacturers add this blend to foods and beverages to boost the perceived nutritional value and to contribute natural colors and flavors. It is commonly found in nutritional supplements, protein powders, and children's drinks, where it can add a 'health halo' to the product.

The FDA does not specifically regulate 'Organic Fruit & Veggie Blend' as a single ingredient. The health benefits depend on the specific fruits and vegetables included in the blend. Regulatory bodies like EFSA and JECFA have evaluated many individual fruits and vegetables, generally recognizing them as safe when consumed as food. There are no widespread controversies or specific health concerns associated with consuming whole fruit and vegetable blends at typical dietary levels.
