Thursday, the Nutrition Unit of the Ministry of Public Health with the support of the project "Ranfòse Abitid Nitrisyon pou Fè Ogmante Sante" (RANFOSE) commemorated the 3rd anniversary of the publication of the law on food fortification with the participation of certain Haitian partners, manufacturers and producers who already market fortified products.

Remember that the Food Fortification Law requires that products such as wheat flour, cooking oil and salt, sold in Haiti, be fortified : flour with folic acid, B vitamins and zinc; cooking oil with vitamin A, and salt with iodine https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-25223-icihaiti-politic-fortification-of-imported-food-moratorium.html
