Importance of Food fortification:
Food fortification or enrichment is the process of adding micronutrients (essential trace elements and vitamins) to food. It can be carried out by food manufacturers,which aims to reduce the number of people with dietary deficiencies within a population.
Iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient deficiency globally, affecting between 1.5 and 2 billion people, of whom 500 million have iron deficiency anemia (IDA). People living in developing countries are on the higher side for this deficiency. Symptoms of IDA arepoorability to perform physical tasks, impaired productivity, lower working capacity and fatigue.
Iron is an essential trace element in animal and human nutrition. It is a component of heme in hemoglobin and of myoglobin, cytochromes and several enzymes. The critical requirement of iron is its participation in the transport, storage and utilization of oxygen.
In modern methods of producing wheat flour the iron rich shell of the wheat grain is eliminated. This results in that the iron content of wheat flour of today is lower than that of wheat flour produced before.
