Hexagon Nutrition Targets Vitamin A Deficiency with New Stable Formula

At the Micronutrient Forum in Accra, Hexagon Nutrition unveiled VIT A+, a specialized formulation designed to survive the harsh environmental conditions that often degrade nutrients in African food supplies. Developed by Particles for Humanity, the product promises to solve the persistent issue of vitamin loss during storage and cooking.

Vitamin A deficiency remains a critical public health hurdle across the continent. While many nations enforce mandatory fortification, the nutrient often breaks down before reaching the consumer due to heat, humidity, and improper storage. VIT A+ utilizes advanced encapsulation technology to protect the vitamin, ensuring the nutritional value remains intact from the factory to the dinner table.

The formulation integrates seamlessly into existing production lines for bouillon, wheat flour, and sugar, requiring no additional infrastructure investment from local manufacturers. Following successful commercial-scale validation in India, where each batch was calibrated to support 600 million servings, Hexagon Nutrition is now spearheading distribution across Africa. By stabilizing the delivery process, the company aims to turn standard fortification programs into reliable sources of essential nutrition for vulnerable populations.
