Liver in the Diet

Although rich in Vitamin B-12, liver is so packed with cholesterol that it may present health woes for some individuals susceptible to high blood cholesterol.

Generally speaking, all foods can be a part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation, but liver does raise a red flag:

Beef Liver - 135 calories per 100 grams, 275 mg of cholesterol

Chicken Liver - 116 calories per 100 grams, 345 mg of cholesterol

Goose Liver - 133 calories per 100 grams, 515 mg of cholesterol

Turkey Liver - 232 calories per 100 grams, 331 mg of cholesterol
