In addition, fortification in milk helps in improving the calcium absorption rate and maintain its level in blood. Other dairy products like cheese, butter and yogurt also undergo fortification to enhance their nutritional value. Pregnant women are often advised to consume milk fortified with folic acid for their good health.
