FFP 629 | Is Eating Liver More Effective Than Supplementation?

Lisa examines a peer-reviewed study that tracked liver consumption and vitamin A status in young children from an impoverished South African community — and what the findings reveal about food as a nutrient delivery system. Lisa unpacks a striking paradox at the heart of the research: the poorest households consumed the most liver not for health reasons, but out of economic necessity and were consequently the most protected against vitamin A deficiency. Whether through whole food sources or desiccated liver capsules, Lisa makes the case that eating liver for vitamin A remains one of the most efficient and nutrient-dense strategies available for supporting fertility and reproductive health.
