Edible insect

Product Description

  Insects are very nutritional; they tend to be high in protein and low in carbohydrates. Let’s take the cricket

as an example: **0 grams of cricket contains: **1 calories, *2.9 grams of protein, 5.5 g. of fat, 5.1 g. of

carbohydrates, *5.8 mg. calcium, **5.3 mg. of phosphorous, 9.5 mg. of iron, 0.*6 mg. of thiamin, 1.*9

mg. of riboflavin, 3.*0 mg. of niacin and .*5% fat.  
Insects are 
 the most environmentally-efficient animal protein on the planet. This is because many food-insects, such as crickets, convert food and water much more efficiently into usable nutrition than cattle or other livestock. For instance, insects require up to *0 times less food than cattle, meaning that per pound of food they are given, they produce several times the amount of protein. Also, up to **0 times less water is required per pound of usable protein.
