With October marking World Edible Insect Day (23 October), there’s no better time to explore the benefits of edible insects as a sustainable superfood.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The entire Matomani range is organic and full of natural goodness, rich in fibre, Omega 3, protein & amino acids, high in essential minerals & nutrients, and is a cost-effective, sustainable protein alternative.<\/p>\n

Why Mopani Protein? <\/strong>Mopani worms are one of the most sustainable sources of protein, yielding more protein per gram than beef. In fact, Mopani protein offers a remarkable 60% protein content per gram, compared to just 26% in beef. And while it takes 10 kg of feed to produce 1 kg of beef, only 3 kg of Mopani leaves are needed to produce 1 kg of Mopani worms.<\/p>\n
