It has tons of protein.
Health freaks will go to extreme lengths in the name of nutrients , but I'm not afraid to say it: The latest"superfood" is just plain gross.
Taking stomach-churning to a whole new level is cockroach milk, which is comprised of the nutrient-rich milk crystals found inside the Pacific Beetle cockroach. This species uses said protein crystals as food for cockroach infants, butsuggests that it could be beneficial to humans, too, as it's one of the most nourishing and highly caloric substances on the planet.
"The levels of growth hormone in this particular liquid are unknown, and there is evidence that shows that growth hormones may exacerbate acne in certain individuals," Dr. Nazarian explains."The high levels of sugar may also make it a poor choice in terms of skin health and beauty, as we know that high-sugar diets actually accelerate skin aging."
Okay then! So while it's not going to work wonders for your skin, and could even exacerbate existing problems, it can, however, be beneficial to other parts of your beauty regimen:"Protein and fat are vital components of good hair and nails, and this particular liquid may make getting optimal levels of both things much easier," Dr. Nazarian adds. Still, Biotin and Vitamin D sound a lot more appetizing than cockroach excretion...
I will say that when you think about the fact that cockroaches can survive nuclear explosions, tapping into what they've got is intriguing. But still, these are the same pests tucking into stray crumbs and days-old dirty dishes. So...thanks, but no thanks.
