Hi Susan. I tried liver raw and brain cooked
- you may get used to its taste.
But now I'm following my own
style of natural nutrition - based on nuts and fresh plants.
I found there the best composition of micro and macronitrients.
And i like its taste, availability and simplicity in the kitchen.

>would they supply the nutrients desired?
Liver will keep it's favourable vitamin A content
(it's resistant to heat).
Some other important vitamins will disappear though
- especially the folic acid and vitamin b1. Vitamin-c will be
reduced.
Good to eat it raw.....

The polyunsaturated fats (w-3 or not) are also a little sensible
to heat. That's the reason why better not to fry with sunflower oil.
If cooking marrow or brain i'd suggest not to choose the biggest
heat.

Organs are in many aspects better that muscles.
Alas often suspect to environmental intoxications.

I've read quite a couple of books, but I don't know Ms.Davis'.
Maybe she is not much known in Europe.

Forunately my children look strong,big and healthy :-)
