Health Benefits of the Mighty Shrimp
Shrimp is particularly well-known as a low-calorie, high-protein meat source.
On average, a 3 oz. serving of shrimp contains just 60 calories while packing an astounding 20 grams of protein. Protein plays a multitude of roles in building muscle, boosting your immune system, strengthening your bones, and even healing injuries. Shrimp also contains a plethora of vitamins and minerals, including copper, zinc, calcium, potassium, and iron. On top of that, shrimp is also one of the best food sources of iodine, an important mineral that many adults have a deficiency in. Iodine is an essential element for proper thyroid function and brain health.
Little did you know, shrimp also contains antioxidants! The main type of antioxidant in shrimp is a carotenoid called astaxanthin, which may help protect against inflammation by preventing free radicals from damaging your cells.
You Deserve Nothing but the Best Shrimp
Remember the Maine shrimp season? So do we! When Julian, the owner, was growing up he used to peel shrimp during shrimp season in Maine. Then after a long day of peeling shrimp we would sell the shrimp meat to local restaurants for them to sell. Typically the restaurants would deep fry the shrimp, wow were those delicious!
So although these shrimp aren't harvest in Maine, they are the same shrimp! The pandalus borealis is still harvested in Canada to this day! These little shrimps are delicious on a sandwich as well!
Although its not quite the same as coming to Maine back in the 90s to get your tray of fresh fried Maine shrimp, this is as good as it gets! We hope every bite brings you back to the good old days!
