Grass Fed Beef Liver

Why should you eat liver?

Nowadays it is unusual to eat offal. We still feed pieces of meat like this to our pets, but we hardly ever eat them ourselves. Organic meat has a pronounced taste that not everyone loves or knows how to incorporate into a meal. If we do eat liver, it is processed into liver sausage or pâté, which is more than just liver.

However, it is recommended to put liver back on the menu. It is rich in nutrients that our own liver needs and that are rare in 'normal' meat. In liver you'll find, for instance:

• All fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E & K) together with their co-factors
• Retinol, an instantly usable form of vitamin A
• Folate, the natural form of vitamin B9/11 (folic acid)
• Vitamin B12
• Choline
• Bioavailable haem iron
• Co-enzyme Q10
• Liver specific peptides, co-factors and enzymes

These nutrients are highly bioavailable and occur in the forms that we ourselves have in our bodies. You absorb these nutrients better, because you eat them in their natural context and with substances that increase absorption.

Unique benefits of liver: retinol and haem iron
Grass-fed liver is the most concentrated source of retinol (vitamin A). Retinol is much better absorbed and used faster than vegetable carotenes. Carotenes have a lower absorption and need to be converted before they are active as vitamin A. Haem iron is iron bound to a haemoglobin or myoglobin molecule. Haem iron is much better absorbed from food than free iron.

It is even more important to choose high quality offal. Organs such as the liver and kidneys have a cleansing function and store some toxins. A healthy animal fed a natural diet will have the most nutritious organs with the least contaminants.
