Cholesterol in liver

[bruno]

I have noticed how cheap liver is at the grocery store and am excited to have found an extremely cheap protein source that I love. I have read though that it is extremely high in cholesterol. Is it nothing to be concerned about like eggs if I eat liver once every day or two days?

Dietary Cholesterol has little impact on cholesterol levels unless genetically predisposed.

Ewwww......liver You do know that the liver is the bodies filtering system that filters all the toxins and crap? I could never eat liver knowing that.

But hey, if you like it, then yeah Iain's right, unless you have pre-existing cholesterol issues.

There is a BIG difference from dessicated liver supplements and fresh liver at a grocery store.

Whats the difference if the cow was grass fed and recieved no steriods or antibiotics. I hate the taste of liver but I don't think its bad for you.

Calories in Beef Liver

Yeah and he's talking about a grocery store liver...... How many grocery stores do you see selling organic grass fed beef livers? How about NONE!

I never said liver is bad for you. I never said that at all. I just think it's disgusting to eat liver where it is the bodies filtering system.

You love me.... tell me you love me. "eh"

You forgot to say "eh" at the end. Your cover as a real Canadian might get blown so be careful.

Liver tastes terrible. I have heard great things about the benefits of liver pills but I have never actually tried them myself. Vince Gironda used to pimp them big time, might explain why Arnold used them.

Good source of iron. I like the taste but eat it only occasionally.
