    Dont know how perfect this is, but...

    Food Fortification is the addition of nutrients (minerals and vitamins) to food.

    Benefits of food fortification include:
    -Provision of necessary vitamins. (Consumer)
    -Provision of necessary minerals. (Consumer)
    -Inclusion of nutrients without change to diet. Eg replacing Milk with Super Milk. (Consumer)
    -People are more likley to buy a product which is advertising health benefits as fortified food does. (Manufacturer)

    erm, cant really think of any others??? Anyone else got some?
