How many grams of protien per shrimp?

[the_only_sepe]

its a fact, cant argue that! religious fuckin beliefs give me a fuckin break, if you dont value knowledge on nutrition, then fuck off! This board is here to help others, I post this to help others out.

I like eating shrimp and lobster and crawfish, I dont like the fact that their meat can become contaminated easily.

salmon that you buy is farm raised, they are fed "pellets"
tuna is a deep water fish (for the mostpart ) they eat other fish

did i ever say i bought my salmon? fuckstick!!!

Re: shrimp unclean?

When they are adults, shrimp do get most of their food by scavenging. This is true, however, of most fish—but that doesn't mean that they are not good for you.

Cows eat grass and when doing so ingest a lot of "non-grass" items found on the floor of a pasture. Like cows, shrimp have great filtering systems and much of the excess is dealt with efficiently.

Interestingly, when surveys have been done of the effects of pollution in fish shrimp come in very low on the list. They have one of the lowest levels of contamination by mercury and other pollutants of any seafood. At the same time much of the shrimp that you purchase today is farmed and is fed a shrimp feed.

I don't see a problem at all in making shrimp a part of your meal plans.

By the way, 1 cup of shrimp had 196 cal,2 g of fat, 25 g of protein and 19g of carbs but the down side is 173mg cholesteral and 992mg sodium

19g of carbs? That seems high for seafood.

Nearly all salmon Americans eat are farm-raised -- grown in dense-packed pens near ocean shores, fed fish meal that can be polluted with toxic PCB chemicals, awash in excrement flushed out to sea and infused with antibiotics to combat unsanitary conditions.
To truly whet your appetite, the added ingredients you’ll get with a farmed fillet: dioxins, PCBs, pesticides (especially for sea lice), antibiotics, copper sulfate (to take care of algae on the nets), and – oh yeah – canthaxanthin (a dye associated with retinal damage used to make gray farmed fish various shades of “wild” pink). As for dioxins, PCBs, and fire retardants, they show up in wild varieties as well, but the concentrations are vastly different. Tests have shown that farmed salmon contains 16 times more cancer-linked PCBs than wild salmon.
I’ll take my chances with Shrimp.
