Shrimps, boiled

Shrimps are shellfish. The figures here describe boiled shrimps purchased cooked, probably in sea water or salted water. They mainly provide protein, with 24g per 100g, alongside 2.4g of fat. They also contain minerals and vitamins, including 320mg of calcium and 3µg of vitamin B12 per 100g.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. The salt content of these cooked shrimps is high, which is worth noting for people watching their salt intake. Full nutrient figures, including salt and saturated fat, are in the tables below.
