Kale, acai berries... and bugs? Turns out, some insects are six-legged superfoods.
Turns out, edible insects like grasshoppers, crickets and silkworms are rich sources of antioxidants -- packing five times more antioxidants than fresh orange juice, according to a new study published in Frontiers in Nutrition.
Insects have not been a part of mainstream American cuisine, but tastes could be changing. A recent study found that more than eight in 10 Americans would consider trying edible insects, at any rate. And bugs have started crawling onto some U.S. restaurant menus, particularly those serving cuisines in which bugs are more common ingredients.
The result? The water-soluble extracts from the grasshoppers, crickets and silkworms had five times the antioxidant capacity of fresh orange juice. In fact, most of the tested insects and invertebrates had some level of antioxidant capacity higher than the OJ, except for the cicadas, water bugs, tarantulas and scorpions.
