[Health Canada, the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations consider the terms "enriched food" and "fortified food" as synonymous and use them interchangeably, whereas some authors make a distinction between the two terms. In that case,] enriched foods have nutrients added to them that were lost during processing. [On the other hand], fortified foods have had nutrients added that are beyond what the foods originally contained. 1, record 1, English, - fortified%20food
