Chitin and Its Effects on Inflammatory and Immune Responses
Increased secretion of chitinases is closely associated with pathophysiological conditions dominated by T-helper type 2 cells (Th2) including infection, fibrosis, allergy, and asthma [ 64, 65 ]. Chitin exposure directly stimulates expression of the pro-Th2 mediators AMCase and eotaxin-3 in cultures of sinonasal epithelial cells [ 66 ].

Allergic immune response to chitin or the helminth N. brasiliensis in the lung. Infection with helminths or chitin alternatively activates macrophages, causing upregulation of chitinolytic and chitin-binding proteins. Secretion of leukotriene B 4 recruits innate immune cells such as eosinophils and basophils, and might initiate a Th2 response.

When viewed in combination, chitin or allergen modulated the expression of chitinases or chitin-binding proteins, and these chitinases may have a direct protective role against chitin by degrading the chitin itself, but also may function to amplify inflammatory responses against chitin or other allergens.
They have parasites; and, apparently, many people are allergic to crickets.
Might have to research this.

Thank you. That's a good article. I will be reading very closely the ingredients on every product I buy.

Crickets have parasites. You can see YouTube videos of parasites coming out of crickets.
Perhaps a topic for a future article!
