Health notes
Vegetable juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. As a whole food product, it is not typically evaluated by bodies like JECFA or EFSA in the same way food additives are, so no acceptable daily intake (ADI) has been set. When consumed as part of a balanced diet, vegetable juice is generally considered healthful, though some processed vegetable juices may contain added sugar or sodium.
