SHRIMP=ENERGY...WHY??
I don't know why but shrimp is the only food that I have found that will give me energy. I have tried everything from vitiminins, to sugar, to caffeine. Nothing will give me a bust of energy like eating 3 small unfrozen shrimp. I know with malabsorbtion maybe my body is lacking something that only shrimp can provide. Again peanut butter, eggs, even tuna won't give me this energy like shrimp...Any ideas? Omega-3? Brian
Brian,
Maybe a selenium deficiency?
They are quite high in selenium, but most ‘complete’ multi-vitamins have that as well.
Try eating a Brazil nut and see if you get the same results?
The triptophan content is also very high. Maybe something there as it relates to brain-chemistry.
Some good Qmega 3 essential fatty acids, but not huge compared to other foods.
However, something about the way it is digested could be delivering more Omega 3’s quicker?
That would account for a "mood lift."
Dunno…..
I love shrimp and have eaten them since around 6 months out.
Good stuff!
