CRICKET POWDER INDUSTRIAL USE
Cricket Powder for Food
Cricket powder, found in our EntoPowder, is a wholesome and natural superfood ingredient. With its powerhouse of nutrients, it stands out among other protein powders and is widely recognized as a true superfood.
Cricket Powder for Beverages
Cricket powder as a nutrition booster in beverages is more favorable in thicker liquids such as Proothies (protein rich smoothies) and yogurts as the cricket powder is not fully soluble in water. On the other hand, according to a Protein Rebel study, it suggests cricket protein could be 50% more digestible than whey protein.
Cricket Powder for Beverages
Cricket powder can enhance the nutritional value of drinks, especially in thicker liquids such as protein-packed smoothies and yogurts. This is because cricket powder doesn’t completely dissolve in water. However, a study conducted by Protein Rebel suggests that cricket protein may be even more easily digestible than whey protein, with a digestibility rate of 50% higher.
Cricket Powder for Dietary Supplements
Dietary supplements enhance or complement the diet. Cricket powder, with its high protein, vitamins, and minerals, can provide numerous health benefits and a sustainable alternative to non sustainable animal-based protein. Though marketed as a supplement, products used to treat diseases are considered drugs. Consult a healthcare professional before adding cricket powder to your supplement regimen
