Market Trends in Fortified Food Development
In recent years, the quest for more nutritionally complete foods and the desire to improve the health of the body through targeted fortification strategies have propelled the continuous innovation and development of fortified foods. Nutritionally fortified foods are foods with additional essential nutrients and play a key role in combating malnutrition and related health problems. Depending on the consumer population, fortified foods include regular foods, foods for infants, foods for the military, foods for the elderly, and foods for pregnancy, and also include iodized salt, infant formulas, and solid beverages containing folic acid. Investing in the development of fortified foods is not only in line with public health objectives, but also helps to differentiate the food market.
