Abstract

The article profiles the startup business enterprise focused on the promotion and distribution of table salt fortified with both iodide and iron in an effort to prevent and treat iron deficiency disease and anemia among impoverished populations in India. Consultant Venkatesh Mannar's efforts to manufacture microencapsulated ferrous fumarate as a palatable and aesthetically acceptable chemical form of iron to add to salt are described.
