Shrimp is one of the higher protein containing foods you can get. (right below chicken)

Shrimp, at a serving size of 3 ounces, has 18 grams of protein.

Chicken ( at the same serving size) has 21.

Tuna has 22.

The nutritional value of shrimp is not very high: one serving of shrimp (approximately ten large shrimp, cooked and deveined) has 86 calories of which 8 are from fat.

Vitamin A and C are present in small amounts, calcium and protein in slightly higher quantity. Shrimp have a high amount of cholesterol: one serving has enough cholesterol to meet half of the daily amount recommended.

Vitamin DAccording to the World's Healthiest Foods website, 15 large shrimp, or a 4 oz. serving of steamed or boiled shrimp provides roughly 162 IU vitamin D, which meets 40 percent of the Recommended Daily Value or DV for this nutrient based on 400 IU. Thus, shrimp are an excellent source of vitamin D. Vitamin D helps with the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in order to build and maintain strong bones and teeth. Vitamin D is also important for immune system function and promoting healthy skin.
