Good afternoon my griends I am in my 4th week of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes,sticking to my diet regime but I would like to ask another question if I may,can I eat lambs liver ,thank you
Yes, you can @wiseowl_123 as long as you have no other medical reasons that would prevent you
You got me intrigued regarding "medical reasons" to abstain from liver...?
can I eat lambs liver ,thank you
Sometimes people are advised to avoid/limit it if they can't have too much Vit A, I believe. There are probably other reasons too, but that's one I know
Wow, I feel bad for "promoting" liver's low carby goodness now. (In moderation.)Considering it's potential hazard, it might be more prudent to have the onions with a steak...
Liver is still a healthy choice - just not too often. I only know about liver because you're not allowed to eat it if you're pregnant.
Here's some info for you and anyone else who enjoys liver:

Blimey! Even more worrying now.. Granted I'm not pregnant or menopausal.. But what do they class as the "older man"???
I don't know. I assumed it meant around retirement age, but if its the equivalent to the menopause then it could be 55 or something. So you have a good 30 years to go till you need to worry
I know that dog liver should be avoided. There was a story about a breakaway group from Scott of the Antarctic's party. They survived by eating the dogs as they headed home. Large areas of skin fell off due to the fact that dog's liver is particularly rich in vitamin A.
Not a lot of people know that.
I didn't know about that. I think I remember the vitamin A story from a Readers Digest I read years ago. Our local windmill used to repair its stones with lead, carry on grinding and then sell the flour to the villagers. That's the way to get a full churchyard.Didn't some of em also have issues from the lead that was sealing the tinned food at the time, too?
It was a documentary i saw years ago about the Ill fated Terra nova mission. (I think that's the one?) they reckoned lead poisoning from the ration tins was contributory to their demise... Quite sad really.I didn't know about that. I think I remember the vitamin A story from a Readers Digest I read years ago.

How fortunate.And it'd be wise to be scared of the fava beans as well - they drench them in glyphosate before harvesting
The chianti might be the safest bet
