_tFood Fortification and Supplementation
520 _a'Food Fortification and Supplementation in Developing Countries explains how vitamin and mineral deficiencies can be reduced through food fortification and nutritional supplementation programs, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The book discusses major micronutrient deficiencies such as iron, iodine, vitamin A, zinc, and folic acid deficiencies and their effects on public health, child growth, maternal health, and disease prevention. It covers scientific, technological, economic, and policy aspects of adding nutrients to foods, including methods of fortification, quality control, safety standards, and program implementation. The text also highlights international nutrition strategies, government policies, and case studies from different countries, making it an important resource for students and professionals in nutrition, public health, food science, and community health.'
