“…In 2008, the NDA Panel provided scientific advice to the European Commission on the principles for setting nutrient profiles for foods bearing nutrition and health claims pursuant to Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No. 1924(EFSA NDA Panel, 2008. Foods promoted with claims might be perceived by consumers as having a nutritional, physiological or other health advantage over similar or other products without claims.…”

“…In 2011, the NDA Panel evaluated a health claim related to "low fat and low trans spreadable fat rich in unsaturated and omega-3 fatty acids" and reduction of LDL-cholesterol concentrations pursuant to Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006(EFSA NDA Panel, 2011. The scientific substantiation of the claim was based on established consensus regarding the dose-dependent adverse effects of mixtures of SFA and mixtures of TFA on the lipid profile as compared to mixtures of cis-MUFAs and/or cis-PUFAs in foods or diets.…”

The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to compile the outcomes of scientific advice already provided by EFSA with regard to the health effects of trans fats, in particular in the areas of nutrition and health claims, dietary reference values (DRVs) and food additives, and to inform the Commission on how such scientific advice relates to current goals and recommendations regarding the intake of trans fats to maintain health. The scientific advice provided by the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies in the areas of health claims made on food and DRVs and the scientific advice provided by the EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food in the area of food additives, regarding the health effects of trans fatty acids (TFA) in mixed diets is consistent with the scientific basis underlying most recent DRVs, nutritional goals and recommendations, and dietary guidelines for trans fatty acids (TFA) set by other national and international bodies. Data from controlled intervention studies show that consumption of diets containing TFA has adverse effects on blood lipids that predict an increase in coronary heart disease (CHD) risk compared with the consumption of diets containing cis-monounsaturated fatty acids or cispolyunsaturated fatty acids, and that the effect is dose-dependent. Prospective cohort studies showed a consistent association between higher intakes of TFA and increased risk of CHD. The consistency of the evidence from these two types of studies provides strong support for the conclusion that TFA intake has a dose-dependent linear effect that increases the risk of CHD as compared to the intake of other fatty acids in the diet. With few exceptions, latest national and international recommendations indicate that dietary intakes of TFA should be as low as possible.

“…Soft drinks exist in various compositions and brands and are marketed by different brewery industries [6,7]. These drinks are readily devoured daily, especially when undergoing worrisome activities like hard work and sport [8]. With the relatively economical prices, they are highly consumed during leisure and relaxation outings and serve the general public on occasions such as traditional marriages, weddings, funerals, etc.…”

“…The result revealed sugar, carbon dioxide, phosphate, and alcohol in soft drinks. Activity, PH ranging from 3 to 5 with an average of 3.6 and the acid concentration was small between 3 and 12g/L with 8.1g/L presents in the soft drinks [8]. Aloh et al [16] determined the type and quantity of sugar present in each of the two soft drinks.…”

This study aims to determine the relationship between the chemical compositions of twenty-five (25) soft drinks sold in Nigeria. Sample concentration of twenty-five (25) soft drinks used in the study was collected from the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was employed to explain the relationship between the chemical compositions and determine the soft drinks' chemical composition distribution. The result has shown that all except acidity and antioxidant has a significantly strong positive relationship among the chemical structures. PCA suggested retaining three components that explained about 82.465 per cent of the data set's total variability. It was observed that carbonated water, fructose, sucrose, main concentration, stabiliser, E412, colouring and gelatin were the major compositions of the soft drinks in Nigeria, Base on the findings in this study, it is recommendations that; Consumers who are allergic to sugar or diabetic should avoid taking any of the soft drinks with high sugar concentration. Soft drinks companies producing drinks with high sugar content should consider their customers who are diabetic and allergic to high sugar levels.
