AB  - Micronutrients, which include vitamins and minerals, are needed in trace levels for growth, brain and body development, and disease resistance. They must be taken from diet and other sources since the body is unable to synthesize them. In vulnerable groups such as young infants, pregnant and nursing women, and the elderly, malnutrition causes poor physical and mental development, mental retardation, and blindness. Food fortification is a safe and effective approach for enhancing micronutrient intake and recovering levels lost during processing by providing key elements in food. Micronutrient deficiency has an influence on long-term development objectives. Nearly half of all pregnant and nursing moms suffer from anemia.
