英文摘要:

      Silkworm pupa, as a food ingredient, possesses high nutritional value and health benefits and has been used as a nourishing and fortifying food since ancient times. Currently, silkworm pupae are widely used as food ingredients in regular and health foods. With the in-depth research of modern science, the active ingredients and functional effects of silkworm pupae are gradually being revealed. Studies have confirmed that silkworm pupae have health benefits such as immune regulation, assisting in lowering blood sugar, assisting in lowering blood lipid levels, assisting in lowering blood pressure, anti-fatigue, and antioxidant properties, providing a theoretical basis for the development of health foods using silkworm pupae as raw materials. This paper introduced the nutritional value of silkworm pupae, and summarized the health functions and mechanisms of silkworm pupae in the light of relevant studies in the domestic and international literature. Further, through the information search of the national “Special Food Information Query Platform” and “Pharmaceutical Intelligence Network” databases, summarized and analyzed the present status of approved health food products using silkworm pupa and its active ingredients as raw materials. It was found that among the approved health food products related to silkworm pupa, the main claimed function is to enhance immunity, and the main dosage form is capsule. Moreover, the number of approved silkworm pupa-related health foods has increased dramatically in recent years. This paper provided some suggestions for the application and development of silkworm pupa and its components in health food, with a view to providing references for the in-depth investigation and development and utilization of the health benefits of silkworm pupa.
