Vitamin A deficiency is the leading cause of disease and death among citizens of third world countries. The lack of Vitamin A in daily diets often leads to crippling childhood blindness and neural tube defects. To combat this deficiency, Wright has developed Vit-A-Rice®, a major breakthrough in the effort to supply Vitamin A and Folic Acid in impoverished societies worldwide.
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 Rice® a natural grain based fortificant which contains iron and other vital nutrients.
Through technical innovation and a wealth of experience from over 50 years in the rice enrichment industry, Wright has developed Nutra Rice® natural grain-based fortification, a natural, grain-based alternative to assimilated and artificially created fortificants used in humanitarian aid efforts.
