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.
Fortified means that vitamins or minerals have been added to the food in addition to the levels that were originally found before the food was refined. When foods are fortified, they will have more vitamins and minerals after they are refined than they did before they are refined. Common fortified foods are: milk (fortified with vitamin D) and salt (fortified with iodine). Fortified is often misused by companies who produce cereal and fruit drinks.
