About Native shrimp

Native Shrimp, sourced from coastal waters, is a versatile seafood staple celebrated in cuisines worldwide, particularly in Asian, Mediterranean, and Latin American dishes. These small crustaceans are rich in high-quality protein, offering essential amino acids to support muscle health. Shrimp is also a notable source of vitamins like B12 and minerals such as selenium, which aids in antioxidant defense, and iodine, crucial for thyroid function. Low in calories and fat, Native Shrimp can fit into a variety of diets, including heart-healthy plans. However, some health considerations include its cholesterol content, which may require moderation for individuals managing cholesterol levels. Additionally, shrimp harvested or prepared with heavy processing or additives may contain unwanted sodium or preservatives. Best enjoyed fresh and simply cooked, Native Shrimp provides both nutrition and flavor, enhancing any meal with its delicate, sweet taste and tender texture.
