Bread, from white flour, added omega-3 polyunsaturates
Fat and fatty acids were determined in 5 purchases of 3 brands (3x Buttercup Wonder White Omega-3 DHA, Tip Top Up Omega-3, Woolworths White Plus Omega-3) of white bread with added Omega-3 purchased in Sydney in 2005. Remaining nutrients were imputed from regular white bread. Folic acid estimated using the approximate flour content of bread and the folic acid content of flour for bread making after taking into account baking losses (200 ug/100 g). Iodine is estimated using the salt content to first estimate the analysed sodium content of the bread, after adjusting for naturally occurring sodium and sodium from food additives (estimated at a total of 16 mg/100 g). The iodine contributed from this salt was then estimated assuming an iodine concentration in the salt of 45 mg per kilogram, assuming a 10% loss on baking. The iodine estimated from iodised salt (approximately 45 mcg/100 g) was then added to the naturally occurring iodine level previously measured in white bread (approximately 3 mcg/100 g) to determine the total iodine content after fortification.
