Oxidative stress has been confirmed to be related to many chronic diseases, including hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Hypertension is a major chronic adult disease affecting 40% population worldwide, and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE, EC 3.4.15.1) plays an important role in elevation in blood pressure. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common form of diabetes, which account for approximately 90 to 95% of all the diagnosed cases, and dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV, EC 3.4.14.5) is involved in this symptom. Therefore, the development of materials which have antioxidant, ACE-inhibitory (antihypertension), and DPP-IV-inhibitory (antidiabetic) activities become important to the prevention or treatment of these chronic diseases. Although many chemically synthesized antioxidants, ACE inhibitors, and DPP-IV inhibitors have been developed, it is still unclear whether these chemically synthesized compounds are sufficiently safe for long-term dosing or whether these compounds may have side effects. Therefore, bioactive compounds derived from natural sources are needed. Bioactive compounds are usually derived from plants, aquatic animals, and mammals. Although many types of insects have been used as foods and protein sources, there are few reports on biological activities of insects. Insects are an abundant resource, that, though not well explored, is expected to be a solution to food security in the future. Among them, the housefly has a high reproductive ability and
