Why are juices required to have at least 10% Daily Value (DV) for a minimum of 3 vitamins and minerals under these Guidelines?

The requirement for at least 10% DV for a minimum of 3 vitamins and minerals ensures that the juices offered in school provide adequate nutrition within the upper limit of 120 calories per 8 oz for all juices.
