Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-194, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

The toxicity of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors to larvae of the disease vectors Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The control of mosquitoes is threatened by the appearance of insecticide resistance and therefore new control chemicals are urgently required. Here we show that inhibitors of mosquito peptidyl dipeptidase, a peptidase related to mammalian angiotensin ...

Adult black soldier fly meal (imago, Hermetia illucens) as replacement for fish meal in diets for Pacific Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei)

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Adult black soldier flies (imagines, Hermetia illucens) are a by‐product of large‐scale insect larvae production. The suitability of this novel sidestream as a protein source in diets for juvenile Whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei, initial weight 5–6 g) was investigated in controlled feeding experiments in recirculating aquaculture systems ...

Replacement of soybean cake by Hermetia illucens meal in diets for layers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Insects will likely play an important role as protein sources for livestock in the future. Many insect species are able to convert materials not suitable for human nutrition – or even waste – into valuable protein with a favourable amino acid composition

Combined Substitution of Fishmeal and Fish Oil With Black Soldier Fly Larval Meal and Corn Oil: Effects on Growth, Hematology, Hematobiochemical, Amino and Fatty Acid Composition, and Fillet Nutritional Quality of Hybrid African Catfish Clarias gariepinus × Heterobranchus longifilis

open access: yesAquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study aimed to evaluate growth performance, amino acid and fatty acid composition of fillets, and blood biochemistry of hybrid catfish (Heteroclarias) cultured on Black Soldier Fly (BSF), Hermetia illucens larval‐based diets. The experiment was conducted in a recirculating system, circular poly tanks (350 L), in a completely randomized design ...
