Пальмовое масло на грани.2019
Сгенерированная сводка:
В ответ на воздействие на окружающую среду выращивания масличной пальмы 15 лет назад была основана организация RSPO, которая удостоверяет устойчивость производства пальмового масла.
Благодаря работе, проделанной за последние годы, пальмовое масло является одним из сельскохозяйственных продуктов, ведущих к устойчивому производству, хотя озабоченность по поводу устойчивости очевидна и для различных культур во всем мире.
Среди этих требований, касающихся пальмового масла, помимо аспектов питания, все большее внимание уделяется продовольственной безопасности и, в меньшей степени, устойчивости.
Дело в том, что отрасль уже потребляет экологически чистое пальмовое масло, и прогнозируется постепенное увеличение использования сертифицированного RSPO пальмового масла, очищенного с использованием более мягких процессов, для достижения значительного сокращения присутствия химических загрязнителей, образующихся в результате технологических процессов.
В настоящее время нет научных доказательств, подтверждающих связь потребления пальмового масла с более высокой заболеваемостью раком или риском смертности у людей.
Abstract:
Conclusion
1. In response to the environmental impact posed by the cultivation of oil palm, 15 years ago the RSPO was founded, which certifies the sustainability of palm oil production.,2. The “Amsterdam Declaration” urges the inclusion of sustainability throughout the food production chain. Several countries and organizations are signatories, among them the RSPO, which made a commitment to the implementation of 100% sustainable palm oil in the European food chain by 2020.,3. Thanks to the work done over the past years, palm oil is one of the agricultural products leading sustainable production, although concerns about sustainability are evident also in various crops globally. It is essential to educate the consumer on the importance of selecting sustainable products to contribute to maintenance of the environment and local economies in the producing countries.,1. The review of the current scientific evidence on the safety of palm oil indicates that its consumption in moderate amounts, and in the context of a varied, balanced and adequate diet, does not present health risks.,2. Several more-or-less current studies are contributing to a reassessment of strongly implanted dogmas about saturated fat and its relationship to cardiovascular health. If these recent studies are confirmed, the association between consumption of SFAs and CVR could be modified or at least qualified.,3. Currently there is not enough evidence to warrant modifying fat intake recommendations regarding 20%–35% of total calories, nor the criterion that SFA intake should not exceed 10% of the total energy intake, which means that this fat intake should be at most about 20 g/day within a 2000 kcal a day diet.,1. The food industry is among those most concerned to maintain a high level of product quality and satisfy consumer demands. Among these demands as they relate to palm oil, apart from nutritional aspects, there is increasing stress on food security, and to a lesser extent sustainability.,2. The fact is that the industry is already consuming sustainable palm oil, and the forecast is for a gradual increase in the use of RSPO certified palm oil, refined using milder processes to achieve a significant reduction in the presence of technologically-generated chemical contaminants.,3. The collaboration of universities, research and technological centers, and the media is essential to assure the dissemination of objective, unbiased information.,1. For the present there is no scientific evidence (experimental or epidemiological) to warrant associating palm oil consumption with a higher cancer incidence or mortality risk in humans.,2. Both the JECFA and the EFSA have established levels of TDI for toxic contaminants generated in the processing of vegetable oils (3-MCPDs and GEs) at 4 µg/kg bw/d and 2 µg/kg bw/d respectively. In light of these recommendations, the Commission has amended its regulation of contaminants regarding GEs and is working on 3-MCPDs.
