Insects: a promising alimentary raw material against famine
Journal Title: Revista Lasallista de Investigación - Year 2005, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Insects, in general, make up the biggest biomass on hearth. Their body mass is made up by a high percentage of proteins. The alimentary use of adult or immature arthropods, especially from the insect kind, is common in many regions of the world. Their use by past generations has been important, due to high costs and lack of raw material to produce food concentrates, a necessity present among us nowadays. Therefore, its use becomes very important again.
