Fortify Flour
Worker checks quality control
A worker uses a computer to check on the quality of flour produced at the OCRIM flour mill in Manaus, Brazil. The mill has been fortifying the flour it produces since 2004, one year before Brazil mandated that all mills fortify the flour they produce. The mill adds 10 mg of folic acid and iron to every 100 grams of flour it produces. Photo copyright: David Snyder / CDC Foundation.
