A new framework simulates mandatory or voluntary food fortification intakes, enhancing study comparability and revealing uncertainties. This tool aids in understanding nutrient intake distributions from fortified foods and supplements.

Area of Science:

  • Nutritional Science and Public Health
  • Food Science and Technology

Background:

  • Assessing nutrient intake from food fortification is crucial for public health.
  • Existing simulation methods for fortification lack standardization, hindering comparability.
  • A unified framework is needed for both mandatory and voluntary fortification simulations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a general framework for simulating nutrient intakes from mandatory and voluntary food fortification.
  • To improve the comparability of simulation study outcomes.
  • To provide insights into the uncertainties associated with fortification intake simulations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a six-step general framework based on existing mandatory fortification simulation methods.
  • Extended the framework to accommodate voluntary fortification scenarios.

  • Illustrated the framework's application using case studies of folic acid fortification.

    • Main Results:

    • The framework comprises six sequential steps: strategy definition, carrier product identification, fortification level setting, composition data creation, consumption data integration, and intake calculation.
    • The simulation process yields total habitual intake distributions for functional ingredients.
    • The framework was successfully applied to simulate folic acid fortification in the Netherlands.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed framework is applicable for simulating both mandatory and voluntary fortification.
    • Habitual intake distributions can be estimated even with incomplete or diverse data sources using statistical or modeling approaches.
    • Transparent documentation of the simulation procedure is essential for understanding uncertainties and identifying knowledge gaps.
