What is this food?
Rabbit liver is an organ meat (specifically the liver) that’s eaten as a protein-rich viand, usually cooked like adobo, ginisa, or sautéed with onions and spices.
Why it matters to health
Rabbit liver helps support your daily protein needs for growth, repair, and keeping you full. It also provides important nutrients that your body uses every day. Since it’s an organ meat, it can be higher in certain micronutrients and has some natural fats and carbohydrates—so it’s best to include it in your meals in reasonable portions and not as a daily staple. For a balanced day with 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, liver can fit as a “sometimes” protein option alongside fish, chicken, eggs, tofu, or beans.
Healthier tips
- Keep the portion small: aim for about 30–60 g cooked per serving, then fill the rest of your plate with non-starchy vegetables and a sensible amount of rice or other carbs.
- Pair it with lots of gulay (e.g., kangkong, pechay, broccoli, carrots) to balance the meal.
- Use lighter cooking methods when possible: ginisa with minimal oil, or adobo with less added fat.
- If you’re eating liver, consider choosing it 1–2 times per week and rotate with other protein sources.
- Watch added salty ingredients (soy sauce, bagoong, seasoning mixes) so your meal stays heart-friendly.
