Around the world, at least two billion people eat insects. Western society has been slow to embrace entomophagy—the practice of eating insects—but as the demand for healthy protein rises it's only a matter of time before insects are part of the Western daily diet. Insect protein is inexpensive, healthy and eco-friendly, requiring far fewer resources per protein yield and offers a high level of protein, vitamins and minerals. New Hope's news coverage shows how this form of protein is one of the next big trends in natural foods and also emphasizes its nutritional and environmental advantages. It also offers a deep dive into the supply chain and pricing barriers that currently exist for insect protein and explores how food entrepreneurs can formulate new products using insect protein.

"As the definitive news and analysis source for manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, service providers and investors within the natural, organic and healthy products industry, every day we track the people, trends and new products driving the marketplace," said Carlotta Mast, Executive Director of Content & Insights, New Hope Natural Media. "We're very proud to be honored for identifying this new trend to assist our readers as they build successful businesses and bring more health to more people."

This is the second year in a row that New Hope won a Neal award. Last year, New Hope Natural Media's Market Innovation Consumer Segmentation, which identifies five distinct consumer segments for the healthy products market based on attitudes and behaviors, won an award in the "Best Subject-Related Package" category.
