Submission received: 1 August 2016 / Accepted: 2 August 2016 / Published: 2 September 2016
The published paper [1] contains errors that mean that the resulting analysis is incorrect and the conclusions are no longer supported. We have thus decided to retract the original and republish the paper as [2].
The errors are a result of the fortification level standards for rice being incorrectly interpreted as being in mg/kg instead of mg/100 g [3] and therefore the calculation was done with a level ten-fold lower than actually recommended.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused to readers.
