Heh. I've been taking B-12 supplement pill daily for over a year based
on the recommendation of the doc at the VA following the first round of
blood tests.

Two following appointments and blood tests since the B-12 level was
within normal range.

I just had another blood test last week and an appointment this morning
to review the results.

The normal range for B-12 is from 600 to 900 (somethings). Mine
was near 1,600. Doc was mystified a bit until I told her that I
was on a shrimp kick for a couple of weeks just prior to the bloodwork.

Turns out that four (4) medium sized shrimp contains 75 percent of the
B-12 you need daily. I had been eating a lot more than that.

But, I also read up on shrimp. As much as I like 'em, farm raised
shrimp (which is about all you can find now-a-days) isn't very good for
you. Farm raised shrimp are grown in nasty conditions and are treated
with antibiotics and other harmful crap that you ingest. So much for
shrimp. No more.


Funny, well, not funny, but...My wife's doctor got on her about eating
shrimp. In her case, it was
the impact on cholesterol. From what I've read, the Asian produced
shrimp and fish are much worse in
contaminants than that from, say, Venezuela. I have to admit, I like
those big Venezuela shrimp.


I like shrimp a lot but after reading about 'em I'll go without. Same
with lobster. Critters are scavengers for anything found on the ocean
floor. Same with clams now-a-days also. Don't trust any of it.




I will be 75 next week. So not going to worry about shrimp being bad for
you. Wife did a great new shrimp recipe Sunday. Rice, marinated
artichoke hearts, zesty Italian dressing, shrimp. Not know the original
source of the shrimp, but they were peeled, deveined, tail off for easy of
recipe prep.



I love big shrimp fried in garlic and oil. Oh well ...




I like those also.
