Now funny enough... I mentioned that earlier, which got cut? (Far enough!)
But I'm left thinking I'm wrong, the bad is now good.. Then I'm shocked to find the good is bad..
A whole generation brought up on this stuff to be replaced with "pot noodle.."
To be fair. I would agree dietary requirements will change over the life cycle regarding nutrients..
@Bluetit1802 my mum was told the same thing about liver, carrying my sister & I...
Lol, it never did us any harm..!
One of my favourites with onions,had it on Tuesday delicious.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
Even when washed down with a fine wine?Back to the liver. Yes it was the Terra Nova expedition if anyone wants to read up as to why you shouldn't eat dogs liver and possibly go easy on anyone else's liver while you are at it.
How strange. My GP advised me to eat liver when I was pregnant with my eldest as I was so low on iron. Liver and guinness
Perhaps that was before the advice changed? They're always updating pregnancy advice.
It's not just liver. The NHS advises against taking Vit A supplements if pregnant. I checked my pregnancy vits just to be sure and they had a message on explaining they didn't contain Vit A.
I had my last baby last yearThe advice is changed pretty often
You make me sound so old. Cheers mateI am only 32 though

I have a BSc degree from the Open University - it turns people into vacuum cleaners for knowledge. The particularly dangerous livers are from carnivores, as they have concentrations of vitamin A thousands of times above the safe level. There was an ancient Human fossil found which showed signs of Vit. A poisoning. The surface of it was all rough and it must have been really painful to move.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.
Your memory is excellent - in the latest video posted (Part 32), he talks about the 5 foods required to cover full nutritional needs and liver was one of them. Can't recall all 5 but sardines is another. Kale he says is the best of the veggies. Apparently full details are covered in his book "Raising Superheroes".I love liver, particularly with bacon but onions will do just as well. I dunno whether the warnings are valid or not, but it seems to have done me no harm since childhood, when it was a firm favourite in our house. (I suspect it was also a cheap option that my poverty-stricken parents could afford).
Must admit, I take the warning with a bit of salt - mostly because it's the NHS website, and .... well ... they're the ones that advise the Eatwell Plate don't they, and we all know what that means ...On that basis, I'd sorta, kinda, be inclined to do the opposite of what they advise ..... or at least think about it very carefully.
BTW, I'm sure I remember Tim Noakes including liver amongst a range of other things, when introducing babies to solid foods during weaning process. The tutorial is in @Indy51 thread about his trial, can't remember which session number it was in - one of the later ones, but I remember him mentioning it (though of course my memory could be at fault).
