Nutritional value of dried freshwater shrimp

Taking the protein content as an indicator of nutritional value, every 100 grams of freshwater shrimp contains 39.3 grams, which is much higher than aquatic products such as large yellow croaker, yellow croaker, prawn, hairtail, pomfret, and meat products such as beef, pork, and chicken.
