What is Iron-Fortified Rice: Retention & Bioavailability about?
The study evaluates the retention, stability, and bioavailability of iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12 in extruded rice fortified with these micronutrients. Results indicate that iron retention is high during rinsing, while folic acid and vitamin B12 experience some loss; however, cooking methods do not significantly affect nutrient levels. The fortified rice is found to be acceptable for consumption and could help address dietary iron deficiencies in vulnerable populations in India.
