The international initiative to provide essential nutrition through rice fortification is continuing to expand. Emerging countries in Southeast Asia, Central and South America and Africa are employing this fortification strategy through governmental food agencies and authorities. Wright has developed Iron RiceTM a natural grain based fortificant which contains iron and other vital nutrients.
As with all Nutra RiceTM products, Iron RiceTM:
- Utilizes proven rinse-resistant grain technology
- Delivers nutrients at a lower addition rate than synthetic grains
- Extremely stable under hot and moist conditions
- Designed for delivery alone or in combinations of long-grain, medium grain and second-head rice grains
- Color and bulk density is identical to natural grains, eliminating segregation when combined with unfortified grains
- Maintains nutritional value even after cooking
- Permits customization to fortification profiles required by various international food regulation and aid agencies
