Fortification. A fortified food simply has vitamins, minerals or other nutrients not normally present in the food added to it during processing. For example, milk does not naturally contain vitamin D, but is often fortified with it because vitamin D enhances calcium absorption.Enriching food differs from fortifying.he vitamins eligible for fortification are A, C, D, E, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, B-6, B-12, biotin, pantothenic acid and folate. Other eligible nutrients and minerals are protein, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, iodine, copper and potassium.
The word fortification can also refer to the practice of improving an area's defence with defensive works. City walls are fortifications but are not necessarily called fortresses. The art of setting out a military camp or constructing a fortification traditionally has been called castramentation since the time of the Roman legions. The art/science of laying siege to a fortification and of destroying it is commonly called siegecraft or siege warfare and is formally known as poliorcetics. In some texts this latter term also applies to the art of building a fortification. Fortification is usually divided into two branches: permanent fortification and field fortification. Permanent fortifications are erected at leisure, with all the resources that a state can supply of constructive and mechanical skill, and are built of enduring materials.
