“…Salt iodization was introduced in the early 1920s in both Switzerland (Burgi, Supersaxo, & Selz, 1990) and the United States of America (Marine & Kimball, 1920) and has since expanded progressively all over the world to the extent that iodized salt is now used in most countries. From the early 1940s onwards, the fortification of cereal products with thiamine, riboflavin and niacin (Kyritsi, Tzia, & Karathanos, 2011) has become common practice. Margarine was fortified with vitamin A (FAO & WHO, 2006) in Denmark and milk with vitamin D (FAO & WHO, 2006) in the United States, then enriched with phytosterols and used by patients with high cardiovascular risk (Laforest, Moulin, Schwalm, Le Jeunne, Chretin, Kitio, Massol, & Van Ganse, 2007).…”
