What’s missing if you want shrimp?

Shrimp is seafood, and any seafood is a good source of iodine. It is logical to assume that if your body certainly requires boiling shrimp, and more, then a possible reason for this taste whim is iodine deficiency (hypothyroidism).

Iodine is vital for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. Shrimp contains a fairly high amount: 100 g of the product contains about 30 mcg of iodine. The sea water in which shrimps live contains a record amount of iodine. Part of it is absorbed by marine life (including shrimps), accumulates in their bodies and is already transmitted to humans with food.

Unfortunately, the problem of iodine deficiency in the body cannot be solved only by eating a large amount of shrimp. It is required to consult an endocrinologist and take iodine in the form of medications.
