Particularly in East Asia, edible insects serve as a source of nutrients. Among these, silkworms and honeybees are well-known sources of food and have been used for the treatment of a large number of human disorders. This review focuses on the utilization of insects as food (entomophagy) as well as for their pharmacological properties (entomotherapy) that have been tested in vitro as well as in vivo. 2020-10-14T08:26:33Z 2020-10-14T08:26:33Z 2020-01-01 Journal 10934715 10939946 2-s2.0-85072938198 10.2741/4802 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85072938198&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/70260
