【ASMR NO MUSIC】★Ginger Chicken Liver★ Easy Healthy Snack, Great With Rice And Sake!

You can easily make a delicious snack simmered in sweet and spicy ginger broth, so healthy they’re basically natural supplements. Chicken liver is a food that is packed with rich nutrients, such as vitamin A (necessary for eye health), iron (effective in preventing anemia), and zinc (important for maintaining immune function). It also has a strong antioxidant effect, so it is good for anti-aging as well.

It is softer and has less calories than beef and pork and is appealing to even people who don’t usually enjoy liver. However, even if it is super delicious, vitamin A has an upper limit per day and can cause illness in high concentrations, so we recommend that you enjoy it once a week as an occasional snack.
