Obesity in children and adolescents is one of the most serious health challenges of the 21st century, and the number of overweight and obese people is steadily increasing. In recent years, entomophagy, or the consumption of insects, has been proposed as an alternative source of protein with economic and environmental advantages over traditional meat production. Edible insects have high nutritional value. They are rich in protein, recommended fats, vitamins, and minerals. Moreover, numerous animal studies show insect protein can slow weight gain, improve the immune response, reduce inflammation, and benefit energy metabolism. Despite the challenges of promoting and accepting insect protein, its health and environmental benefits may make it an essential part of a balanced diet in the future. Including insects in the diet can help overcome obesity-related health problems, potentially help control weight and reduce the risk of obesity-related diseases. However, further research, including clinical trials, is needed to confirm the health benefits of insect protein. Educational campaigns can help break down cultural barriers and increase the acceptance of entomophagy.
