Jeffrey Blount, M.D., M.P.H, is the director and co-founder of the Global Alliance for the Prevention of Spina Bifida (GAPSBiF). Thisorganization seeks to use science-based advocacy to promote global fortification of food and salt with folic acid for the prevention
of spina bifida. One of the enabling objectives to accomplish this larger objective was to update and review best available world
literature on folic acid fortification. This resulted in a landmark presentation in Lancet Global Health that addressed and summarized
this topic. Ongoing work is underway to use these reviews to support a WHO/WHA General Assembly Resolution supporting global
folic acid fortification.
