Liver is cool, I dunno if its a deliberate mistake but its lamB not lamP
Hello
I include once a week (during my no carb day) liver in my diet to boost my iron/hemoglobin levels. (I also like the taste when cooked......excellent)
I always thought that beef liver had much more iron than any other food but when I checked the nutrition data on the package of the meats and nutritiondata.com I saw that pork liver is the best of all.(in terms of iron)
100 gm Beef liver

Vitamin A:338%
Cals:135
100 gm Lamp liver

100 gm Pork liver

which 3 oz of Pork liver = 16 mg Iron

"Lift big, eat big, rest big"

"Go heavy or go home."
Just realize the liver is a filter for the body...therefore it contains the toxins the animal was getting rid of. all "filter" organs should in my opion be eaten with caution.
