What's The Definition Of The Medical Condition Fortified Food?
Any food that has been supplemented with essential nutrients either in quantities that are greater than those present normally, or which are not present in the fortified food.

Fortified food includes also enriched food to which various nutrients have been added to compensate for those essential nutrients removed by refinement or processing.
