Shrimp meat contains high concentration of pentavalent arsenic compounds, which are harmless to human body. However, if a large amount of vitamin C is taken at the same time, pentavalent arsenic will be reduced to trivalent arsenic, which is arsenic trioxide, commonly known as arsenic, which will lead to acute arsenic poisoning. Therefore, when eating shrimp paste, it is best to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C, which can block the synthesis of nitrosamines in the stomach.
