Another project from cleaning out the freezer, homemade liver pills. Needed to make more room for a steer we dropped off and had processed. While eating liver certainly is something we have done, sometimes we don’t have the time to prepare it. The liver has been desiccated and dehydrated. Then I take the powdered liver and make pills. I managed to get over two quarts of liver powder this time around. This should last our family at least until we butcher another steer. Liver Is a Great Source of Several Nutrients The nutritional profile of liver is exceptional. Here are the nutrients found in a 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of beef liver: *Vitamin B12: 3,460% of the RDI. Vitamin B12 helps the formation of red blood cells and DNA. It is also involved in healthy brain function. *Vitamin A: 860–1,100% of the RDI. Vitamin A is important for normal vision, immune function and reproduction. It also helps organs like the heart and kidneys function properly. *Riboflavin (B2): 210–260% of the RDI. Riboflavin is important for cellular development and function. It also helps turn food into energy. *Folate (B9): 65% of the RDI. Folate is an essential nutrient that plays a role in cell growth and the formation of DNA. *Iron: 80% of the RDI, or 35% for women of menstruating age. Iron is another essential nutrient that helps carry oxygen around the body. The iron in liver is heme iron, the kind most easily absorbed by the body. *Copper: 1,620% of the RDI. Copper acts like a key to activate a number of enzymes, which then help regulate energy production, iron metabolism and brain function. *Choline: Liver provides all of the Adequate Intake (AI) for women and nearly all of it for men (AI is used because there is insufficient evidence to set an RDI). Choline is important for brain development and liver function. SUMMARY: Liver provides more than the RDI for vitamin B12, vitamin A, riboflavin and copper. It is also rich in the essential nutrients folate, iron and choline. Credit: Alexandra Rowles #westonapricefoundation #westonapricekids
