New MIGHTi Research out in Environmental Research Letters (Open Access) - relevant #planetaryhealth collaboration between @_vstull_, Matt Smith & Sam Myers at Harvard University, and @jonathanpatz @UWGlobalHealth

New MIGHTi research out! Potential health impacts of boosting insect consumption across Asia & Africa: just 5 g/day could alleviate considerable risk of nutritional deficiency (~67 million fewer people at risk of protein deficiency, ~237 million for zinc) https://t.co/A6V0RhwHG6

[MIGHTi @_MIGHTi_]

New @MIGHTinsects research out in @InsectsFoodFeed highlighting what we know about the impacts of eating insects on human health! Hint: we need more human intervention studies, but the evidence so far is compelling. https://t.co/mbZa5ufTmA

[Wageningen U&R @WUR]

#Insects🦗| The EU gives green light to eating mealworms for human consumption. The protein and fiber rich mealworms are probably the first in a line of edible insects to be added in the coming years.

Insect farming is taking off in #Madagascar as a way to combat malnutrition & alleviate pressure on animals hunted for bushmeat. My piece for @mongabay feat @CortniBorgerson, @ant_explorer & @mobotgarden. Thanks to @rivonala77 for doing local interviews. https://t.co/bA6nZOmRQv
