Food Prude Facts:
Like eggs, shrimp has gotten a bad wrap due to its cholesterol
content. Contrary to past beliefs, eating shrimp does not significantly
increase your LDL cholesterol levels but has been shown to increase
your HDL (good) cholesterol levels. It is a very low fat food containing only 1g per 3oz. serving which
is mostly polyunsaturated, containing moderate amounts of omega-3 fatty
acid.
Cilantro, among several other benefits, is a powerful natural cleansing agent. Cilantro has been effectively used to help remove heavy metals and other toxic agents from the body.
