  • 1 Potassium Levels in a Range of Foods and Drinks Consumed in Mauritius
    Potassium levels in a range of foods and drinks consumed in Mauritius Sudaxshina Murdan1*, Anshu Prakash Murdan2, Premawuttee Murdan3 1UCL School of Pharmacy, University College London, 29-39 Brunswick Square, London, WC1N 1AX, UK 2Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Mauritius, Reduit, Mauritius 3Quatre Bords Road, Bon Accueil, Mauritius * Corresponding author email: [email protected] Introduction Potassium is an essential mineral nutrient, and high potassium intake is associated with lower mortality risk [1]. Thus people are advised to increase their consumption of fruits and vegetables which are natural sources of potassium. Since potassium is readily excreted by people with normal kidney function, and based on estimates of the generally low potassium intakes in European and North American populations, no Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) has been set [2, 3]. However, certain groups of people, such as those with renal failure, are at risk of hyperkalemia [4] and people with chronic kidney disease, and on dialysis are advised to restrict their intake of potassium [5]. To help patients, a number of websites, such as [5-7] and publications, such as [8-10] provide the potassium levels in different foods. While these sources are very useful and much of the information is freely available on the web, there is a dearth of information about foods that are eaten in certain parts of the world, such as in the Republic of Mauritius. The aim of this pilot study was therefore to measure the potassium levels in a sample of drinks and plant foods that are commonly consumed in the island Republic of Mauritius.

  • Beverage Policies & Drinks with Artificial Sweeteners
    HEALTHY April 2020 HEALTHCARE TOOLKIT BEVERAGE POLICIES & DRINKS WITH ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS Hospitals implementing beverage policies are replacing sugary drinks1 with healthier beverage options in their vending machines, soda fountains, catering services and other food services. These institutions are quickly faced with questions about whether to include artificially sweetened beverages. Plain water and unsweetened low-fat or nonfat milk are still the healthiest replacements for sugary drinks, and unsweetened coffee, tea, and sparkling waters also rank high as healthier beverage options. But many artificially sweetened beverages are popular, and some national authorities recognize that artificially sweetened drinks can provide useful alternatives to sugary beverages for adults as a calorie reduction strategy (although consumption by children is not recommended).2 The Public Health Law Center and the American Cancer Society have partnered to develop resources to help organizations create healthier food environments, with a special focus on hospital and healthcare settings. This fact sheet, which is part of a larger toolkit, addresses some of the commonly asked questions about artificial sweeteners. www.publichealthlawcenter.org April 2020 While there can be positive calorie reduction benefits for adults in switching from sugary to artificially sweetened (or “diet”) beverages, a growing body of research suggests that a simple net calorie calculation may not tell the whole story. The potential weight loss and other health impacts of “diet” drink consumption appear to be more complex and warrant continued research. Because the research is inconclusive, many institutions choose to include “diet” drinks as replacements for sugary drinks with the rationale that they would like to offer the widest range of low- or no-calorie beverages as possible, and “diet” drinks are preferable to sugary beverages in terms of calorie and carbohydrate intake.

  • Could Your Diet Drink Be Making You Fat?
    Could Your Diet Drink Be Making You Fat? The food and beverage industry has a wide variety of low/no-calorie sweeteners to choose from to lower the sugar (and often calorie) content of some of our favorite, sweet foods and drinks. We, as individuals, have a variety of choices too – the “yellow packets”, the “blue packets”, the “pink packets”, stevia extract, monk fruit extract, and more. Generally speaking, people seem to be either “in favor” of using these sugar substitutes or “against” them, saying they are all just as bad (or worse) for you, than sugar. In actuality, each sugar substitute has its own unique chemical structure, and therefore may impact the body in distinctly different ways. While all sugar substitutes on the market are regulated by the FDA and are considered to be safe, they shouldn’t all be lumped together as “good” or “bad”. A recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggest that different sugar substitutes may have different effects on weight. The study compared 4 different sugar substitutes: saccharin (like in Sweet-n-Low), sucralose (like in Splenda), aspartame (like in Equal) and rebaudioside A (stevia extract, like in Truvia), to sucrose (table sugar), and was performed on 123 subjects that were overweight/obese and typically did not use sugar substitutes. For 12 weeks, the subjects were randomly assigned to drink 5 ¼ - 7 ½ cups daily of a colored, Kool-aid beverage sweetened with sugar or one of the 4 sugar substitutes mentioned above (heavier subjects drank a larger volume). The subjects were measured and weighed and their % body fat/body composition was assessed.

  • The Coca-Cola Company One Coca-Cola Plaza Atlanta, Georgia 30313 1-800-788-5047
    The Coca-Cola Company One Coca-Cola Plaza Atlanta, Georgia 30313 1-800-788-5047 Subject: DASANI® Bottled Water Report as required by California SB 220 Thank you for requesting information about the source and product quality of DASANI purified water. As the owner of the DASANI brand, The Coca Cola Company is pleased to provide this information to you. Most facilities that purify and bottle DASANI procure water from municipal water systems. At a few plants, however, water is obtained from protected groundwater sources managed by the bottling plant, with approvals from local authorities. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has established standards of identity for various types of bottled water, including spring water, mineral water, artesian water and purified water. DASANI is made using purified water, which the FDA defines as: “Water that is produced by distillation, deionization, reverse osmosis or other suitable processes and that meets the definition of “purified water” in the U.S. Pharmacopeia, 23d Revision, Jan. 1, 1995.” The DASANI purification process includes these steps, in approximately this order: • Volatile organic compounds and chlorine are absorbed as source water passes through granular activated carbon filtration, a form of crushed and hardened charcoal. • Minerals and additional impurities are removed as water is forced at high pressure through a semi-permeable molecular-level membrane. This step is called reverse osmosis. • Interim ultraviolet light disinfection destroys micro-organisms and ensures water safety and purity before re-mineralization. • Water is re-mineralized by the addition of small amounts of magnesium sulfate, potassium chloride and salt (which adds a negligible amount of sodium) to assure consistent taste.
