New Delhi: With an aim to help control anaemia in India, TTK Prestige, India’s leading kitchen appliance brand, in consultation with PATH, a leader in global health innovation, is developing an iron release pressure cooker with inside made of iron lining. During the process of cooking, iron minerals may infuse into the food, which will fulfil the need for iron in our body.
 
Speaking to ETHealthworld, PATH’s India Country Programme Leader Neeraj Jain said, “Anaemia, which is caused by iron deficiency in body, is one of the biggest concerns in India. We are working with TTK Prestige to develop a pressure cooker in which when you cook food, the iron gets released. The idea came from Indians’ love for cooking in pressure cooker. If we can provide controlled amount of iron into the food through the medium of cooking, it will be a small yet impactful innovation in the healthcare industry.”
 
Jain further said, “The endeavour is to look at challenges being faced by the country and find solutions for them.”
 
As per the National Family Health Survey, 2015-16 (NFHS-4), 58.4 percent of children in the age group 6-59 months, 53.0 percent of women (15-49 years) and 22.7 percent of men (15-49 years) are anaemic in India.
