Fortification of Rice 🍚 In extrusion technology, milled rice is pulverized and mixed with a premix containing vitamins and minerals. Fortified rice kernels (FRK) are produced from this mixture using an extruder machine. The kernels resemble rice grains. FRK is added to non-fortified rice in ratio ranging from 1:50 to 1: 200 (ideal being 1:100) resulting in fortified rice nearly identical to traditional rice in aroma, taste, and texture. It is then distributed for regular consumption

Double Fortified Salt (DFS) is an innovative new fortified food product - delivering small but crucial amounts of iodine and iron to human beings through their diet. In general, DFS formulations are intended to provide 100% of daily dietary iodine requirement, and 30 to 60% of daily dietary iron requirement. DFS is produced by mixing iodized salt with either/or ferrous sulphate/ encapsulated ferrous fumarate. While producing DFS with ferrous sulphate, sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is used as a stabilizer, ferrous fumarate has been encapsulated with soya stearin to prevent interaction between iodine and iron. DFS as a product is stable in both formulations, is indistinguishable in taste, color, and smell from regular salt and has been proved efficacious in addressing IDA (Iron Deficiency Anemia) and IDD (Iodine Deficiency Disorder).
