Liver, chicken, raw

Chicken liver is an organ meat; the figures here describe it raw. It provides protein, iron and several vitamins, including vitamin A, vitamin B12 and folate. Per 100g, it contains 18g of protein, 9.2mg of iron and 9700µg of vitamin A, expressed as retinol equivalents.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Liver and liver products are not recommended during pregnancy because their high vitamin A content can harm the developing baby. Chicken liver needs thorough cooking before eating to reduce the risk of food poisoning. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
