title: [Light food and beverages: what to think about?].
abstract: Light food and beverages are increasing on the market for many years, first for economic reasons and, more and more for aesthetisme, however without aimed a defined population. The interest of these products is not evident, reason why it is difficult to get a clear and objective opinion without being influenced by marketing messages. Under what circumstances can they be a solution? Can we advise them? Do they have an influence in the loss or weight control? This article offers some thoughts and suggestions on the use of these specific products.
