Regenerative sourcing loops
More than 2.1M lbs of pre-consumer produce become BSFL feed annually, and partner farms receive mineral-rich compost for next-season crops.
Our origin story
We exist to create a virtuous cycle that extends animal health spans and preserves our natural resources.
White Eagle Nutrition was founded by integrative nutritionists and insect agriculture experts who wanted better answers than conventional feed. We craft USA-sourced BSFL-based foods that are ethical, science-backed, and designed to keep rescued nutrients, thriving animals, and restored ecosystems reinforcing one another—from arthritic horses to aquatic turtles.
Our mission
Our mission is to create and continuously fulfill a virtuous cycle where upcycled nutrients become precision BSFL nutrition, animals thrive longer, and the resulting wellbeing fortifies soils, research, and community care.
- Co-create with regenerative farms to upcycle food waste into premium BSFL feed and return finished compost to their soils.
- Transform those inputs into species-specific routines guided by veterinary science and continuous data analysis.
- Equip guardians with consults and education that convert healthier animals into lighter vet bills and calmer households.
- Reinvest time, revenue, and learnings into research grants, welfare partnerships, and infrastructure that accelerates the cycle.
How the virtuous cycle comes to life every day
We track each loop of the cycle to ensure it keeps delivering compounding benefits for animals, caretakers, and the planet. Here’s what that commitment looks like in practice.
2
Precision nutrient translation
Veterinary nutritionists, entomologists, and data scientists iterate formulations to align with species biology and peer-reviewed insights.
3
Guardian success pathways
Consults, grants, and feeding plans equip households, shelters, and barns to turn nutrition gains into resilient multi-species care.
4
Reinvestment with accountability
Savings fuel welfare grants, regenerative farming pilots, and co-published studies tracking digestibility, immunity, and lifecycle outcomes.
Guiding values
Animal-first formulating
We analyze species biology to deliver precise amino and fatty acid profiles for longevity.
Evidence obsessed
Our R&D team partners with universities to publish digestibility and immune studies on BSFL proteins.
Regenerative supply
Larvae are raised on upcycled produce in zero-waste facilities powered by renewable energy.
Accessible wellness
Auto-ship bundles, community grants, and shelter partnerships keep animal wellness within reach.
