To meet the growing need for food to support an increasing population, a country should make use of edible insects as a food source. However, some people believe that insects are not only unhealthy but harvesting them will also negatively affect nature. What are the benefits and drawbacks of eating insects?

Nowadays, the world

population

is increasing at a rapid rate, which not only contributes to large

food

demand but

also

the shortage of resources required by humans. The problem we

people

are facing is due to the growing need for

food

for the rapidly increasing

population

. The country should think about using insect-based

products

as

food

. A few

people

believe that

insects

can be unhealthy and have adverse effects both on the body and nature. In

this

essay, I will argue that

insects

have high

protein

value as

meat

and other resources of

food

, whereas it can be the solution for the increasing

population

so edible insect

products

can be considered as

food

. China and India are known to be the largest populated countries in the world, a nation like China

is

are

mostly dependent upon animal

meat

, seafood, and insect-based

products

for a high

protein

source. The

second

most populated country, India is not only facing problems with increasing

food

demand but poverty too. its main source of

food

is both plant-based and animal

meat

, which is unable to fulfil all populations with the required amount of

protein

and carbohydrates.

Insects

and animals are known to have a high value of

protein

and carbohydrates than plant provides. if

people

dependable upon non-veg

food

then

why not add edible

insects

to

food

products

that have more benefits than drawbacks these are: the availability and producing edible useful

insects

in a small place with fewer resources, providing a high amount of proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins which will be easily affordable to all, and it will lead growth in research with employment in the country.

In contrast

, to benefits, it

also

has a few drawbacks it can cause some allergic and health issues in some

people

and it can be problematic to handle

insects

without proper training and experience. The insect can be a cause for the spreading of many diseases and have a negative effect on the environment too. In conclusion, I would suggest that insect-based

products

can be used as a source of

food

and an alternative to animal

meat

.

This

new idea can be useful in prospective research and

food

technology as well as the modern solution to the hunger of the increasing

population

in the countries.
