This problem must be addressed, but unfortunately, anyone encouraging you to eat insects is not looking out for your health in the first place. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>A 2017\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/full\/10.1080\/15563650.2017.1349320\">paper<\/a>\u00a0published in\u00a0<em>Clinical Toxicology\u00a0<\/em>presented evidence of histamine poisoning from insects, in three cases in Thailand, including an outbreak affecting 118 patients, and another incident involving 19 students. The paper focused on direct evidence in another case in which 28 out of a group of 227 students were sickened, and concluded the cause was histamines present in grasshoppers and silkworm pupae they ate at a seminar. The researchers analyzed the leftover foods, and what the 28 sickened and other 199 students ate, and alleged that the histamines were implicated, which like tropomyosins, are heat-stable (resistant to degradation by cooking).

This is not the chitin<em>\u00a0per se<\/em>\u00a0causing toxicity; instead, it\u2019s the shape of the structures formed by chitin leading to toxicity.<\/p>\n<p>Spines are narrowly conical, rigid, fixed projections, found on grasshopper legs, for example. Spurs are similar to spines but are on a socket allowing movement. Setae are hair-like, and contain nerve endings for sensory perception. The hairs on the legs of a fly are an example of setae. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>It also seems reasonable to surmise, and even hard to ignore, that chewing an insect exoskeleton would produce sharp fragments that could damage the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. Similarly, sharp particles could result from grinding insects during food processing. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>God had a reason to command us not to eat crustaceans and most insects.
