This enables:

                   •  Point-of-care or near-site production for
                       hospitals, rural clinics, or humanitarian missions
                   •  Country-level manufacturing for national drug
                       security
                   •  Community-level cultivation for chronic care
                       therapies in underserved areas


               By cutting out global supply chains, this model reduces
               time to delivery, eliminates cold storage dependency, and
               builds regional autonomy into the healthcare system.


               It’s not just a scientific shift—it’s a geopolitical one:

               Health equity through local bioproduction.




               It Uses Natural Encapsulation


               In traditional biologics, protecting fragile proteins from
               degradation requires synthetic excipients, cold storage, and
               precise purification.

               In plant-based systems, the plant does the encapsulation
               for you.


               Proteins are embedded within fibrous, starch-based, or
               chloroplast-rich matrices that protect them through the
               harsh conditions of digestion. This “natural packaging”
               means:

                   •  No need for purification in many cases
                   •  Greater stability during shipping and storage
