吃虫子似乎让人并没有太大食欲,但近日,来自宾州州立大学(Penn State University)的研究人员通过研究表示,昆虫是一种可持续的天然蛋白源,其对机体健康的营养价值不容忽视,随后研究者罗列了我们应当吃虫子的7大原因。


1、高蛋白,蟋蟀全身有65%都是蛋白,而牛肉也仅仅只有50%是蛋白质;【小编:所以菜里偶尔的高蛋白绝对不要错过】


2、其它营养物质水平也较高,昆虫机体蛋白包含了一系列氨基酸,同时还包括维生素、矿物质、不饱和脂肪酸类以及多不饱和脂肪酸类;【小编:道理我都懂……】


3、许多昆虫机体的脂肪含量都低于5克;【小编:减肥人士请不要错过此条】


4、对环境有益,昆虫可以用于可持续的农业实践中,因为昆虫并不需要太多空间,而且其可以在多种环境中生存,并且很好饲养;【小编:这是个好理由(认真脸)】


5、昆虫可以通过多种方式被食用,我们可以用平底锅煎、煮、油煎、烘烤等方式来烹饪昆虫,同时也可以将昆虫混合面粉来制作成面包、饼干以及零食等;【小编:谁要吃这种零食啊,摔!】


6、昆虫储量极大,世界上某些地方的昆虫超过了300多种,因此人人有份;【小编:我那份,您随意!】


7、味道美极了,人们常常将昆虫的美味比喻为成鸡肉、虾肉等美味,蚱蜢、蚂蚁和黄蜂同时在很多国家被认为是一种美食。【贝爷:嘎嘣脆,鸡肉味!】

小编我……要……考虑……下……

Seven reasons to eat insects


Eating bugs may not seem appetizing, but according to John Coupland, PhD, CFS, Professor of Food Science at Penn State University and spokesperson for the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), insects are a sustainable alternative protein source with nutritional benefits that can't be ignored.


1. High in protein -- A cricket is 65 percent protein whereas beef is about 50 percent.


2. High in other nutrients -- Insect protein contains a good range of amino acids and they also contain vitamins, minerals, unsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids.


3. Low in fat -- Many insect species have less than 5 grams of fat per serving.


4. Good for the environment -- Insect farming can be a more sustainable practice because insects don't need much space, can live under all sorts of conditions and easy to feed.


5. Can be eaten a variety of ways -- Insects can be pan-fried, boiled, sautéed, roasted, or baked with a bit of oil and salt. They can also be made into flour and used for bars, breads, crackers, and cookies.


6. Abundant -- Some parts of the world have over 300 species of insects. Something for everyone!


7. Taste great -- People describe the taste of insects as nutty with a similar flavor to shrimp and chicken. Grasshoppers, ant eggs, and wasps are considered a delicacy in several countries.
