Detailed explanation-1: -A food that has nutrients added back that were lost during processing. Examples are bread, pasta, and other products made from white flour that have B vitamins added back.
Detailed explanation-2: -An enriched food means that nutrients that were lost during processing are added back in. Many refined grains are enriched. Wheat flour, for example, may have folic acid, riboflavin, and iron added back in after processing. This is intended to restore its original vitamin levels.
Detailed explanation-3: -Food enrichment is the practice of adding micronutrients back to a food product that were lost during processing, while fortification adds additional micronutrients not present (or present in small amounts) prior to processing.
Detailed explanation-4: -The enrichment process puts iron, riboflavin, niacin, folate and thiamin back into the grains.
Detailed explanation-5: -means nutrients that were lost during the milling process are added back into the grain product. White flour is enriched to add back the vitamins and minerals that were lost when the outer hull (bran & germ) of the wheat kernel is removed during the milling process.
