Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Food fortification can deliver essential micronutrients to populations at a large scale, thereby reducing nutritional anemia. This study aimed to review and meta‐analyze the literature on the impact of wheat flour, maize flour, rice, and oil (singly or combined) fortification on women's (10–49 years) hemoglobin and anemia.
