The link between graphene oxide and insects:

One of the reasons why they want us to eat more insects is the following. The exoskeleton of insects is made of chitin, a polysaccharide. Chitin is deacetylized to obtain chitosan. Through pyrolisis (900 -1000 °C) you get carbon. That carbon is exfoliated to obtain graphene oxide. So basically you are using biomass to synthesize graphene oxide.

It's pure madness that insects are introduced into our food.

Link between Alzheimers and chitin:

They also contain allergenes, parasites, alkaloids etc. There's a reason why we humans are disgusted by insects. It's a protective mechanism.

When you cook the meat at high temperature, wouldn't this destroy these structures?
