Les énoncés où l'on affirme, laisse croire ou suppose qu'un aliment en particulier présente une valeur nutritive supérieure ou constitue un choix plus sain que d'autres aliments sont considérés comme trompeurs, puisque le régime alimentaire global, plutôt qu'une seule partie de ce régime est la variable critique qui détermine la suffisance nutritionnelle d'un régime et sa contribution à la réduction des risques de maladies chroniques. 1, record 1, French, - suffisance%20nutritionnelle
