Abstract

Vitamin A deficiency affects many children in the developing world, and is preventable via food or pharmaceutical supplementation. The main technical barrier to the fortification of food with vitamin A is its susceptibility to oxidation and isomerization, which result in loss of nutritional efficacy. This review discusses recent technological avenues for stabilizing vitamin A in foods.
