What it is

An enrichment blend is a mixture of vitamins and minerals added to foods to increase their nutritional value. These nutrients are often added back after processing, which can remove some of them. The specific blend can vary but often includes B vitamins (like thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid) and iron.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add enrichment blends to restore nutrients lost during food processing and to help prevent nutrient deficiencies in the population. They are commonly added to refined grain products such as bread, pasta, rice, and cereals, as well as some baked goods.

Health notes

In the US, vitamins and minerals added for enrichment are regulated by the FDA. The specific nutrients included in enrichment blends are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as intended. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many of these individual nutrients. Consuming foods with enrichment blends helps meet daily recommended intakes for these essential nutrients.

Allergen info

Enrichment blends themselves are not typically derived from major allergens. However, the food product they are added to may contain allergens. Gluten is not a component of enrichment blends.
