For too long, our food system has prioritized calories over nutrition, leading to diet-related diseases and immense environmental costs. But what if plants could help solve these challenges? At Elo, we’re using molecular farming to turn plants into biofactories for healthier, #sustainable ingredients. Take watermelon: we’re tapping into its potential to produce a natural, calorie-free #sweetener — like monk fruit, but with better taste and greater accessibility. By growing this sweetener in watermelons, we reduce costs, cut environmental impact, and offer a healthier alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners. It’s a game-changing #innovation for the food system, and it’s just the beginning. Discover how #molecularfarming can transform our food system in our latest blog post. (Link in comments ?? ).
