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? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

There have been arguments about several problems that the globe is facing,

such

as running out of

food

sources,

however

, referring to

insects

as a

food

source has been a discussion. In

this

essay, I will illustrate my point of view and support it with examples as well.

First

of all, we are all aware and acknowledged the significance of

food

and how

food

poverty is a serious problem,

however

, from my perspective, I do not believe that

insects

could bring us any good

besides

toxic diseases and we can clearly see how that turned out when people started to eat dangerous types of

food

such

as bats. Nowadays all living creatures are suffering from covid-19 and it is all because some people ate questionable

food

without considering the consequences.

Besides

the harm that

insects

will be causing for human physical health, eating

insects

will affect the environment as well. Every insect has a specific function to do,

for example

, bees are responsible for the plant's nectar,

nonetheless

, bees have a huge impact on the plants' living system,

therefore

, killing them will influence the whole ecosystem. Despite all the certain facts, I believe that eating

insects

are against human nature. In conclusion, we should not rely on

insects

permanently because it has drawbacks more than merits.

This

is why the government is supposed to search for a safe and healthy alternative for

food

products rather than causing harm to humans and living creatures' health and affecting the whole ecosystem.
