Pengaruh Makanan Fortifikasi Terhadap Kasus Stunting Anak

ABSTRAKStunting merupakan kondisi gagal tumbuh pada anak akibat kekurangan gizi kronis dan infeksi berulang terutama pada periode 1000 hari pertama kehidupan (HPK) yaitu dari janin hingga usia 24 bulan. Fortifikasi adalah praktik yang dilakukan secara sengaja untuk meningkatkan kandungan satu atau lebih mikronutrien (yaitu, vitamin dan mineral) dalam makanan atau bumbu untuk meningkatkan kualitas gizi …

Global Coverage of Mandatory Large-Scale Food Fortification Programs: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: Food fortification with micronutrients is widely implemented to reduce micronutrient deficiencies and related outcomes. Although many factors affect the success of fortification programs, high population coverage is needed to have a public health impact. We aimed to provide recent global coverage estimates of salt, wheat flour, vegetable oil, maize flour, rice, and sugar among …

Challenges and opportunities for increasing the effectiveness of food reformulation and fortification to improve dietary and nutrition outcomes

Abstarct: Reformulation, a change to a food or beverage’s processing or composition, can reduce potentially harmful ingredients such as salt, added sugar, and saturated and trans fats or increase potentially beneficial ingredients or nutrients such as fiber, protein, and micronutrients. Poor nutrition and health outcomes of populations have stimulated programs and policies to reduce the …

Aligning the epidemiology of malnutrition with food fortification with Food fortification: Graps versus reach

2023 Abstract: Large-scale food fortification (LSFF) has been recognized as one of the most cost-effective interventions to improve the intake of vitamins and minerals and decrease the burden of micronutrient deficiency. Indeed, the simple addition of micronutrients to staple foods, such as wheat, maize and rice, or condiments, including salt and bouillon, has tremendous potential …

The Potential of Food Fortification as an Enabler of More Environmentally Sustainable, Nutritionally Adequate Diets

2023 Abstract: Policies encouraging shifts towards more plant-based diets can lead to shortfalls in mi-cronutrients typically present in animal products (B-vitamins, vitamin D, calcium, iodine, iron, selenium, zinc, and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids). We modelled the effect of fortifying foods with these critical micronutrients, with the aim of achieving nutrition and sustainability goals, using food …

Exploring the Complementarity of Fortification and Dietary Diversification to Combat Micronutrient Deficiencies: A Scoping Review

2023 Abstract Achieving a balanced and diverse diet remains a challenge for many people, contributing to an ongoing burden of micronutrient de-ficiencies, particularly in low-income settings. Fortification or dietary diversification are common food-based approaches. We conducted a scoping review to: 1) find evidence on whether combined food–based strategies are more effective than single strategies, and …

Handbook for the Production ofExtruded Fortified Rice Kernels

This Handbook was developed as a response to the growing interest in rice fortification using extrusion technology. Manufacturers of fortified kernels and programme personnel expressed a need to have a readily available handbook that could answer key questions related to the effects of extrusion technology on this product’s fundamental quality attributes. This Handbook would not …

A generic theory of change-based framework with indicators for monitoring the effectiveness of large-scale food fortification programs in low- and middle- income countries

2023 Large-scale food fortification (LSFF) programs are widely implemented in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) to alleviate micronutrient deficiencies. However, these programs may not achieve the desired impact due to poor design or bottlenecks in program implementation. Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) frameworks and a set of agreed indicators can help to benchmark progress and to …

Standard Operating Procedure: Qualitative Spot Test for Iron in Fortified Rice

Purpose: The purpose of this test is to quickly and inexpensively assess the presence of fortified kernels(containing iron) in fortified rice.In this test, reagents react with ferric (iron) ions to generate a dark brown‐red pigment. Thus, this test will not work on fortified rice using fortified kernels that do not contain iron. This is a …
