Not every health trend appeals to everyone. Cockroach milk might be one to pass on—but science suggests otherwise.
Studies highlight the impressive nutritional profile of cockroach milk. Surprisingly, a species called Diploptera punctata doesn't lay eggs; it gives live birth and nourishes its nymphs with milk rich in proteins, amino acids, and other vital nutrients.
Currently, cockroach milk isn't commercially available. Further research is underway. If it hits the market, it's more likely to be lab-engineered than sourced directly from insects, ensuring safety and scalability.
