| dc.description.abstract | Micronutrient deficiency is a persistent problem in India mainly due to low dietary diversity and poor nutrient density of staple foods. The present generation of all children are habituated with fast food consumption, which causes a numerous adverse effect like stunted growth, nutritional deficiency disorder, obesity, etc. The latest trending technique to overcome nutritional deficiencies is food fortification which is considered to be more cost effective and enables improvement of health. “Fortification” means deliberately increasing the content of essential micronutrients in a food so as to improve the nutritional quality of food and to provide public health benefit with minimal risk to health. For complete wellbeing our body requires vitamins and minerals that curb the micronutrient deficiencies. As India is the largest producer of milk, which is a staple food it can be fortified with essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, fatty acids using fruit and vegetable resources. | |
