To get more insight in the environmental and nutritional performance of different diets, we performed a comparative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study with Optimeal. We helped DSM to study the fortification of plant-based alternatives, bread and oil with critical micronutrients and omega -3 fatty acids.
Food products with critical micronutrients, ideally with complementary education on plant-based foods, can facilitate the transition to healthier and more sustainable diets.
