Date Nov. 5, 1987.Use of a certain type of complex iron(III)phosphate compounds for iron fortification of food products, in particular grain products. Especially flour and flour products, breakfast cereals, milk-based beverages, broths, rice and fermented food products, such as bread, are here concerned. The iron (III)phosphate compounds used have general formula Z. [FeM3y-3(PO4)y]. XH2O, wherein M is one of the ions H+, Na+, K+, NH4+ or a combination thereof, 1.5/=y/=3.0, X /=O and Z is an integer from 1 and upwards, Z . y being an integer. A preferred embodiment is the use oy being an integer. A preferred embodiment is the use of a compound having the formula Fe3H8(NH4)(PO4)6.6H2O. The invention also relates to a method preparing iron-fortified food products and further to the iron-fortified food products.
