Shrimp has a profound meaning. It is called "dragon" in the north, which means auspicious town house. In the south, it is called "silver", which means long-term wealth. Shrimp never invades and hurts the same kind, and live in harmony. Although its body is small, it is clean and transparent, indifferent to fame and fortune, with noble character and pure and frank mind, showing its life sustenance.

The shrimp body is curved, but it is smooth and free, and each section is as high as a bamboo joint, which symbolizes that everything goes smoothly, rising steadily, and the career is prosperous.

Nutritional components of shrimp

Shrimp should not be eaten with some fruits. Shrimp is rich in nutrients such as protein and calcium. If fruits containing tannic acid, such as grapes, pomegranate, hawthorn and persimmon, are used for treatment, not only will the nutritional value of protein be reduced, but also the combination of tannic acid and calcium salt to form calcium tannic acid will stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort, vomiting, dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Seafood should be eaten with these fruits at least 2 hours apart.

Shrimp skin is rich in calcium, and it also contains an animal fiber called chitin, which is a polysaccharide and cannot be digested and absorbed by human body. After chemical treatment, it can be dissolved in water to make health food chitosan.
