Catastrophic values of integral indicators of the health of the Russian population, according to many reputable scientists, are largely determined by poor diet [Spirichev VB, 1990; Tutelian VA, 1999]. There is no doubt that a condition or factor in the development of a number of diseases, it may be lack of a vital micronutrient.
As a compelling example of this situation can be considered vitamin A (retinol) and provitamin (?-Carotene). Deficiency of this micronutrient in the diet of the majority population of the Earth - a special concern for WHO. The global nature of the deficit is largely determined by the fact that vitamin A total of all manufactured on Earth food is not enough to ensure the physiological needs of the world population [WHO, 1998].
