How Many Beef Liver Capsules Are Equivalent to Fresh Liver?Updated a day ago
Serving Size on the Label
Codeage Grass-Fed Beef Liver provides 1,500 mg (1.5 g) of nutrient-dense, pasture-raised beef liver per serving.
The liver is freeze-dried and non-defatted to help preserve its naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and proteins.
The supplement is made from real whole beef liver with the water removed, which concentrates the material compared to fresh liver.
Comparing Freeze-Dried Liver to Fresh Liver
Fresh liver contains a large amount of water. When liver is freeze-dried, most of this moisture is removed, leaving a more concentrated form of the original tissue. Because of this, smaller weights of freeze-dried liver represent larger weights of fresh liver.
A commonly used approximation is:
1,500 mg (1.5 g) of freeze-dried beef liver is roughly equivalent to about ½ oz of fresh liver.
Using that reference:
- 1 serving (1,500 mg) ≈ ½ oz of fresh liver
- 2 servings (3,000 mg) ≈ 1 oz of fresh liver
- 4 servings (6,000 mg) ≈ 2 oz of fresh liver
So, if someone is trying to compare intake to 2 oz of fresh beef liver, it would be approximately equal to 6,000 mg of freeze-dried beef liver, or about four standard servings of the supplement.
Important Notes
- These comparisons are approximate and based on typical moisture loss during freeze-drying.
- Fresh liver and freeze-dried liver will not have identical nutrient measurements by weight, even though they come from the same whole-food source.
- The supplement is not meant to replicate fresh liver gram-for-gram, but to provide a concentrated, convenient form of it.
- Always follow the serving size listed on the label unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional.
Summary
- One serving = 1,500 mg of freeze-dried beef liver ≈ ½ oz of fresh beef liver
- 2 oz of fresh liver ≈ 6,000 mg of freeze-dried liver
- This equals roughly four servings of the supplement
