This was a true experimental research with the Double Blind Randomized Control Trial or DB-RCT. The research result indicates that the fortification rice giving has the effect on the iron deficiency anemia status by increasing the hemoglobin content (MD = 0.36 mg/dl, p = 0.000). The ferritin serum content (MD=-10.3±26.44 μg/dl, p=0.059), and zinc serum (MD =-21.78 mg/dl, p = 0.000) on the subjects decrease. The fortification rice giving decreases stress score (MD =-10.96, p = 0.000) and decreases stress level better compare with the ordinary rice. There is the correlation of the hemoglobin content escalation (r = 0637, p = 0.000), the ferritin serum content (r= 0.392, p= 0.026) and the zinc serum content with the stress score of (r = 0377, p = 0.033) before and after the intervention. The research results are in line with the researches concerning the effect of the fortification rice in several other countries. The further research concerning the relationship between the micronutrient and the stress level on the community population should be better in controlling the other intruding variables and stressors (interaction of inter-micronutrients) which have the potential to influence the result. ## Keywords - Fortification - Micronutrient - Zinc - Hemoglobin - Vigna - Anemia - Population - Chemistry - Medicine - Animal science - Food science - Toxicology - Horticulture - Biology - Internal medicine - Environmental health - Pathology - Organic chemistry --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
