"Vegetable Oil
Vitamin A and D fortification of vegetable oils is an effective, low-cost technology to reduce the burden of vitamin A and D deficiencies in developing countries. Vegetable oil is an ideal vehicle due to its high consumption, broad distribution, and existing centralized processing and delivery systems required for fortification and sustainability. In addition, oil composition delays oxidation, allowing for greater vitamin A retention after transportation, storage and cooking. Associated costs of vitamin A fortification have been estimated at US$ 2.00 per metric ton or US$ 0.012 per person per year. GAIN is working to make clear advances in the control of vitamin A deficiency through investments in vegetable oil fortification programs in at least 18 countries."
