HOW TO CUT AND CLEAN LIVE CRABS
HOW TO CLEAN AND CUT LIVE CRABS
Crab meat is high in phosphorous, which is an important mineral to the growth of bones and teeth. People who are at a high risk for osteoporosis should increase their crab intake for the calcium and phosphorous that crab meat provides.
Crab is packed with protein, which is important for building and maintaining muscle. Crab also contains high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and selenium. These nutrients play vital roles in improving general health while helping prevent a variety of chronic conditions.
CRAB IS A GREAT SOURCE OF PROTEIN – Crab is one of the best possible dietary sources of protein available. It contains almost as much protein per 100 grammes as meats without anywhere near the same levels of saturated fat, which is linked to an increased risk of heart disease.
CRAB CONTAINS LONG-CHAIN OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS
Rich in vitamins and minerals, crab meat is also low in fat and contains Omega-3 polyunsaturated acids.
Helps provide protection from heart disease and aids brain development.
And it’s not just any old Omega-3 – it’s the long chain variety. These are more beneficial to our health because they can be used immediately, unlike short-chain Omega-3 found in vegetables and oils.
CRAB CONTAINS SELENIUM
All shellfish are a good source of Selenium but crab meat is particularly rich in it.
Selenium plays a key role in the human’s antioxidant defence system, preventing damage to cells and tissues.
Selenium also plays an important role in the function of the immune system, in thyroid hormone metabolism and synthesis in reproduction.
CRAB CONTAINS RIBOFLAVIN (VITAMIN B2)
As vitamins are water soluble, and therefore not stored in the body, they have to be obtained through our diet, such as through crab meat.
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is important in the production of steroids and red blood cells, the promotion of normal growth, and the maintenance of the skin, eyes and the nervous system.
And take note all you athletes and bodybuilders: turnover of Riboflavin in the human body is thought to be related to energy expenditure, and therefore physically active peoples may have an increased requirement of Riboflavin in their diet.
CRAB CONTAINS COPPER AND PHOSPHORUS
Crab meat contains nearly 30 times the copper found in cod and 56 times that found in salmon, chicken and beef.
Even though iron usually gets the spotlight, copper is involved in the absorption, storage and metabolism of iron. It is important in the formation of red blood cells and keeps bones, blood vessels, nerves and the immune system healthy.
Phosphorus is after calcium the second most abundant mineral in the body. It is a principal mineral of bones and teeth and is, therefore, important in skeletal health and development.
Phosphorus is involved in most metabolic actions in the body, including kidney functioning, cell growth and the contraction of the heart muscle. It is also involved in converting food to energy.
100g of crab provides 62% of daily recommended value for adult men and women.
You want to cut and clean a live crab but don’t know what to do no worries we got you covered.
You got to freeze them in the freezer for 2-3 hours.
Soak them in a little bit of water before you slit the bottom back of the crab, so its easier to pull apart.
