When it comes to keeping our pets healthy, diet is everything. A pet’s food doesn’t just provide energy—it builds strong bones, supports growth, boosts immunity, and even impacts behavior. While traditional pet food often relies on grains, fillers, and artificial additives, organic insect feed has emerged as a natural, protein-rich alternative.

At Promeal, we specialize in organic live and dried insect-based feeds like mealworms, superworms, crickets, roaches, and more—raised on a 100% organic diet. Here’s why more and more pet owners are switching to insect-based nutrition for their pets.

1. High-Quality Protein for Growth & Strength

Pets like reptiles, amphibians, birds, and even some small mammals thrive on high-protein diets. Insects are one of the richest natural protein sources, offering:

Mealworms & Superworms → ~20–23% protein
Crickets → ~18–21% protein
Dubia Roaches → ~21–23% protein

This bioavailable protein supports muscle growth, feather health in birds, and strong scales in reptiles.

At Promeal, our insects are gut-loaded with organic fruits, grains, and vegetables so your pets get maximum nutrition in every bite.

2. Organic & Chemical-Free

One of the biggest concerns in pet food is exposure to pesticides, chemicals, and antibiotics. These can cause long-term health issues in pets.

Promeal insects are raised on a 100% organic diet, without harmful chemicals.
This ensures your pets get pure, clean, and safe feeders.

When you choose organic insect feed, you’re not just feeding your pet—you’re protecting them from hidden toxins.

3. Closer to a Natural Diet

In the wild, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and even hedgehogs survive on insects as a primary food source. By offering insects, you mimic nature and keep pets healthier.

Birds naturally feed their chicks worms, crickets, and caterpillars.
Reptiles like bearded dragons, geckos, and chameleons thrive on live insects.
Even fish like bettas and arowanas enjoy insect protein.

Promeal ensures your pets get the same wild-like diet they are evolved to eat—without the risk of parasites or chemicals.

4. Easy to Digest & Safe

Unlike processed pellets or artificial feeds, insects are easy to digest and provide balanced nutrition.

Soft-bodied insects like mealworms are perfect for baby birds and hatchlings.
Roaches and crickets are high in protein but also contain chitin, which helps digestion.
Dried insects from Promeal are safe, convenient, and long-lasting, making feeding stress-free.

5. Supports Gut-Loading for Maximum Nutrition

Gut-loading is the process of feeding insects with nutrient-rich foods before offering them to pets. This makes the feeder insect a superfood.

Promeal’s live insects are raised on organic fruits & grains.
When pets eat them, they get not only insect protein but also the nutrients from what the insect has eaten.

Example: A gut-loaded cricket provides extra calcium and vitamins, preventing issues like metabolic bone disease in reptiles.

6. Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Pet Food

Compared to traditional livestock, insect farming is:

Eco-friendly → uses less water, land, and feed.
Low waste → produces frass (organic manure) which improves soil health.
Sustainable → reduces dependence on grain-heavy pet food.

By choosing Promeal’s organic insects, you’re also making a green choice for the planet.
