Ah OK, por eso yo puse "aquí" en Inglaterra. :0)

Hola, Claudia. No, la "fortificación de alimentos básicos" es exactamente lo que dice David. Yo conocía la expresión y sabía de qué se trataba, pero no podía recordar :)
claudia16 (X) Apr 29, 2007:
Al hablar de food suplements (aquí), se refieren a los que se toman aparte de los alimentos, no los que vienen mezclados con los alimentos. Food enhancer yo lo he visto refiriendose al sabor, no al valor nutricional.

Muchas gracias, Sugrass, pero "food enhancement" es una intensificación del sabor y la apariencia de los alimentos, no de su valor nutricional :)
