Liver, calf, raw

Calf liver is an organ meat from young cattle. The figures here describe it raw. It mainly provides protein, along with several vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 18g of protein, 12mg of iron, 68µg of vitamin B12 and 18800µg of vitamin A (retinol equivalent).

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Iron and vitamin B12 are needed for normal red blood cell formation, while vitamin A supports vision and immune function. Liver has a particularly high vitamin A content. Liver and liver products are not recommended during pregnancy because excess vitamin A can harm an unborn baby. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
