Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Micronutrient malnutrition, such as iron, zinc and vitamin A deficiencies, is a global health risk. Although distributed globally, over 98% of malnourished persons reside in developing regions. Specifically, sub-Saharan Africa accounts for more than half of the global micronutrient malnutrition cases. Food fortification is identified as one of the most effective strategies for tackling micronutrient deficiencies. However, the prohibitive cost of fortified foods, technological demands, and ethical concerns impede the widespread adoption and effectiveness of this strategy in sub-Saharan Africa. This review discusses the food fortification strategies for iron, zinc and vitamin A, and their impact on micronutrient bioavailability and prospects in eradicating micronutrient malnutrition, especially in sub-Saharan Africa.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
