More info:

Anaemia affects a huge number of people in India – especially women and girls (57%) – causing fatigue, lowered productivity, and even death during childbirth.

Food fortification, the addition of essential micronutrients to staple foods, is the safest, most cost-effective, and most practical known approach to increasing iron and folic acid intake.
