It is widely known by all ancient societies that liver is the most nourishing food on the planet. Liver contains more nutrients, gram for gram, than any other food including:- High-quality protein
- Vitamin A – nature’s most concentrated source
- All the B vitamins in abundance, particularly vitamin B12 if consumed raw
- One of our best sources of folic acid
- A highly usable form of iron
- Trace elements such as copper, zinc and chromium; liver is our best source of copper
- A yet unidentified but proven to exist anti-fatigue factor
- CoQ10, a nutrient that is especially important for cardio-vascular function if consumed raw
- A good source of purines, nitrogen-containing compounds that serve as precursors for DNA and RNA
This is taken from that link on Liver!
