About Turkey, all classes, liver, cooked, simmered
Turkey liver, simmered, is an organ meat with a nutrient profile unlike the bird's muscle cuts. Its most striking feature is vitamin A, at 10,800 micrograms of retinol equivalents per 100 grams, orders of magnitude above any muscle tissue, reflecting the liver's role in storing the vitamin. It provides 189 calories, 27 grams of protein, and 8.18 grams of fat, with no carbohydrate. Cholesterol is very high at 648 milligrams per 100 grams, another hallmark of liver. The organ also supplies 22.6 milligrams of vitamin C and 1.79 milligrams of iron. Because of its concentrated retinol, liver is a food where portion size materially affects vitamin A intake.
