Assessment and Updating of the Fortification Model from 2006

Summary: This report reviews updates to Norway’s fortification model, initially based on 2006 dietary data. New dietary surveys suggest a decrease in the population’s fortified food intake, leading the Norwegian Food Safety Authority to recommend reducing the model’s energy allocation for fortified foods from 25% to 15%. The adjusted model aligns with updated risk assessments to prevent excessive nutrient intake, thus balancing nutrient needs with safety considerations for the population.
