ABSTRACT
The Anemia is an indicator of both poor nutrition and poor health. The most dramatic health effects of anemia, i.e., increased risk of maternal and child mortality due to severe anemia, have been well documented. In addition, the negative consequences of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) on cognitive and physical development of children, and on physical performance particularly work productivity in adults – are of major concern. In order to prevent and combat IDA and in turn enhancing work productivity of the nation, food based approach has played a significant role with less or no side effects. Four food ingredients namely garden cress seeds, black sesame seeds, lotus stem and cauliflower were procured and utilized for preparation of iron rich food products. These developed food products were evaluated for their oganoleptic & nutritional potential. Cheela was found the most acceptable and Idli the least acceptable food product among all four food products developed. Nutritional evaluation depicted that version B of Cheela was found to have maximum amount of iron content among all developed food products.
