Insects
Insects make up 70% of the animal kingdom, they adapt to every ecosystem and environmental condition and express extremely high defensive compounds. Insects are a high protein source with the potential to replace conventional sources of protein in many ways. Insects can be used as ingredients for cosmetics and medicines, to improve the management of organic waste, for direct human consumption as well as indirect human consumption in recomposed foods (using their extracted protein), and as a protein source in feedstock mixtures.
