silkwormA group of scientists found out that silkworms fed with CLA-coated mulberry leaves accummulated conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) into their lipids.

You might remember my entry on milk CLA as a potential diabetes therapy. It’s pretty much the same thing. Silkworm powder is already being marketed in Asia (Korea and Japan) as a nutritional supplement to lower blood sugar.

To each his own, I guess. I think I’d rather have milk, thank you.
