lpv:translated text	"I supported this report, primarily because it makes significant improvements for certain groups of consumers, such as people with diabetes, children, or people with health problems due to being overweight. At a time when diabetes is one of the major health challenges posed in the 21st century, I cannot but be pleased about the improvements made to this directive. In the case of diabetics – I am referring here to people diagnosed with type-II diabetes – blood sugar concentration is of paramount importance. Therefore, I am pleased that after six months of negotiations with the Council, an agreement has been reached which not only improves labelling, but also the quality of fruit juices. The fact that the addition of sugar will be banned from fruit juices marks an achievement not only for those who need to control their body’s sugar intake, but also in terms of improving the health of EU citizens in general. The measures being proposed benefit both consumers, who will have access to complete information, and juice producers, who have wanted to reinforce the notion that juice is part of a healthy diet and can be consumed as such."@en1
