The Analysis
Earthworm Flour A new
product begin to emerge in the market and may help to increase the life
quality of all animals: the Earthworm Flour. Searches of Food Technology
Institute (Ital) of São Paulo, Federal University of São Paulo, Federal
University of Brasília, Federal University of Paraná, Agronomic
Laboratory S/C (LAGRO), Agricultural Nuclear Energy Center, were
important factor for the success of the journey. Searches concluded
earthworm flour like a product with high essential amino acids
concentrations and high liquid protein utilization (biologic value). The
Earthworm Flour has been searched in countries like Japan, South Korea,
India, South Africa, Poland, Canada and USA, allowing the earthworm
flour to be used like alimentary complement in foods of several animals,
including human beings. Searches of the University of California (USA)
and University of Los Andes (Venezuela) target earthworm flour like
coactive in treatments of blood clots, to increase immune system
activity and bacterial combat. Nontoxic for human cells at low
concentrations and indicated to recover and prevent low protein supply
in human diets, very useful in poor areas.
Excellent complement for
all animals.
Recover amino acids
deficiencies of rations.
Capital for grow than
devolution of genetic potential.
Main for immune system
efficiency.
Promotes growth of power,
muscle and physical resistance.
Enlarge disposition and
fertility of reproducers.
Assists recovering of
tired, sick or old animals.
Entirely natural and
without contraindications.
Nonessential amino acids
are normally produced by animal metabolisms. Essential amino acids are
not produced by animals metabolism and need to be in take with foods.
Vitamins balance of earthworm flour is very important to amino acids
edification and absorption.
