Every time when it comes to animal viscera, Dr. Clove sees that many readers love and hate it.
Love is because it is delicious. Hate, because a little worried about unhealthy. No, no, no, doctor clove how to bear to let everyone because of this bite all day long on tenterhooks.
Heart, liver, stomach, kidney, brain and intestine are essential delicacies on the dining table. What are their advantages? Which animal’s internal organs are better to eat?
Heart
The heart is a very important organ for health. What is its status in nutrition?
Advantages
The vitamin B1 content in the heart is comparable to that in the liver and kidney (as if the liver and kidney are also excellent), far higher than that in the stomach, brain and intestine.
Recommended animals to eat
You can choose more hearts of pigs, cattle and sheep, and the fat content of chicken hearts and duck hearts that you often eat is about twice that of pigs, cattle and sheep hearts, and the energy is higher than that of pigs, cattle and sheep hearts.
Liver
Advantages
Compared with other viscera, liver vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, nicotinic acid, vitamin E, iron and zinc have obvious advantages, of which vitamin A content crushes other viscera, which is thousands or even tens of thousands of times that of them.
The liver itself is going to laugh out loud.
Recommended animals to eat
In terms of vitamin A content alone, sheep liver is the highest, followed by cattle liver, followed by chicken liver, foie liver and pig liver are slightly inferior, and duck liver is less.
A little hint
Eat too much vitamin A every day (for example, more than 3000 gRE/d), which is easy to be poisoned, so eat it in a limited amount.
- Liver of all animals: it is recommended to do so 2-3 times a month, each time about 25g (i.e. A large amount); Sheep liver and beef liver: It is best not to exceed 14g (i.e. One mouthful) per day.
Do you think this amount is not enough for you to plug your teeth?
It is not good to say so either. The better things are, the more attention must be paid to the long flow of water.
Spleen
Advantages
Well… the advantages of the spleen… the advantages of the spleen are… slightly higher iron and selenium content and no obvious disadvantages.
Indeed, compared with other internal organs, the spleen does not have obvious advantages, but not many people eat the spleen.
Stomach
Finally speaking of the stomach!
The stomach of pigs, cattle and sheep is commonly known as the stomach, while the common hairy belly refers to the stomach of cattle. The stomach of chickens, ducks and geese is commonly known as gizzard. Chicken gizzard is also the stomach of chicken, while county liver is chicken gizzard, so … (no, no, no, it’s messed up again)
Advantages
Compared with other animal viscera, the stomach has lower fat and cholesterol content.
Recommended animals to eat
Tripe has the lowest fat content and cholesterol content. If you like to eat animal stomachs, you can choose tripe more.
A little hint
The stomach has no advantage in various micronutrients, but it tastes good, crisp, silky and strong. Animals have also won the stomachs of the public with their own stomachs.
Kidney
Kidney is often referred to as “kidney flower”. For various reasons, it is estimated that everyone has heard about it for a long time.
Advantages
Compared with other viscera, the selenium content in kidney has absolute advantages. In addition, the content of vitamin B2 and iron is significantly higher than that of heart, belly, brain and intestine, and the content of vitamin B1 is significantly higher than that of belly, brain and intestine.
Recommended animals to eat
Judging from the selenium content, pig kidney is the highest. Eating 25g (i.e. A large amount) of pig kidney can provide about half of the recommended daily selenium intake.
If a pig kidney can solve the problem, don’t bother too much food.
Brain
Advantages
A little bit about the brain is probably… the legend about it is more beautiful, such as [eating brain to nourish brain], but this statement really has no scientific basis. It is true that the brain tastes better.
Disadvantages
Eating brain not only cannot nourish brain, but also has many shortcomings compared with other internal organs…
- Easy Residual Heavy Metals: Reduce Our Brain Function; High fat content and cholesterol content: especially cholesterol, is 10 ~ 20 times that of other internal organs (the higher the fat, the more delicious the food is, which is one reason why people like to eat brain); There is no significant advantage in various micronutrient contents.
A little hint
High fat and cholesterol will increase the risk of dyslipidemia. It is recommended to eat or not eat brain occasionally.
There is no herb in the world, why unrequited love a brain?
Intestine
Advantages
Compared with other internal organs, intestines have no nutritional advantages. However, for people who like to eat large intestines, even so, it cannot be a reason to give up pepper and slip fat intestines, can it?
Disadvantages
However, we still need to remind everyone that the pig large intestine that we can eat most has the highest fat content in common viscera, which is higher than that in brain.
Recommended animals to eat
If you really like to eat and irresistibly like to eat, it is recommended to try beef sausage and sheep sausage. The taste is good and the fat content is not that high.
In this way, of all internal organs, the liver is indeed better, followed by the kidney.
It’s just that although the internal organs of animals are good, don’t be greedy for any of them. Keep the green hills, not afraid of burning firewood, don’t eat bad stomachs at one time, and from then on you will be tired of looking at each other.
