we are supposed to avoid shrimp?? I thought that was healthy and Iove it!
I don't agree that we should avoid shrimp, and it really depends on what website you look at as to whether you should eat it or not.
I like to use Michi's Ladder, and shrimp is listed in Tier 3 which is good. Also, if it was horrible for you, I don't think they would have shrimp recipes in P90X, ChaLEAN Extreme, Turbo Fire, etc.
But it is not the best when you are comparing to salmon, cod, etc. I typically eat shrimp once a week or once every 2 weeks. I have lots of great recipes for it and I don't think there's anything "wrong" with it...unless you get it from the Gulf Coast...
The site says to avoid it due to the "toxins" because shrimp eat poop. lol. I was looking for info but its not something I'm going to live by.
Shrimp certainly isn't the most environmentally friendly seafood to eat either. I love shrimp, but I choose not to eat it anymore.
