About Crustaceans, shrimp, raw
Raw shrimp is a lean shellfish composed overwhelmingly of protein and water: 20.1 grams of protein and 78.4 grams of water per 100 grams, with just 0.51 grams of fat and no carbohydrate. This composition holds its energy to 85 calories while placing about 95 percent of those calories in protein. Cholesterol is comparatively high for its calorie count at 161 milligrams per 100 grams, a longstanding point of nutritional note for the species. Shrimp supplies 64 milligrams of calcium, 264 milligrams of potassium, and 119 milligrams of sodium. Its very low fat content means the cooking method and added fats largely determine the energy of the finished dish.
