Liver is one of the organ meats that is a power house of nutrients. The food is low is sodium, it is a good source of zinc, copper, and magnesium. Protein, vitamin A, C, the B family, iron as well as phosporus. The being said, the bad things are that it is high in cholesterol; LDL being the bad stuff that produces plaque and essentially causes atherosclerosis, or fats deposits in the blood stream that lead to heart attacks. HDL is the good stuff which promotes a healthy heart. The vitamin content contains high quantities of vitamins that are not water-soluble. Which means that they are not flushed out of the body quickly, and can build up in the bodies organs, and become toxic. I think that I would cook them, and then freeze the other 2 dinners for later on near the end of the week. I would space out their liver dinners, just to be on the safe side. Good eats! |
