Anaemia prevalence may be reduced among countries that fortify flour (July 2015)
This study evaluated national-level data to determine whether fortifying wheat and maize flour with nutrients like iron, folic acid, vitamin A, or vitamin B12 reduced anaemia prevalence among non-pregnant women. Data were sourced from Demographic and Health Survey reports, the WHO Vitamin and Mineral Nutrition Information System database, and other national nutrition surveys from countries with at least two anaemia assessments.
