What do these mean? ▾

Beneficial. Linked to benefits in published research. Tiers show evidence strength.

Restricted or banned. Restricted or banned by a regulator in at least one country.

Under research review. Being studied or re-evaluated by researchers or regulators.

Contextual. Not flagged, but there is a note worth reading.

Standard. Everyday components like vitamins and minerals.

Not yet classified. Not in our dictionary yet. Always still listed.

Counts include what's inside compound entries like vitamin premixes, so they can add up to more than the label's ingredient count.

1Pork liverNamed organ meats▾

● Beneficial (well-established)Organ meat from a named animal species, with both the species and the organ identified. Published nutrition references describe named organ meats (e.g. chicken liver, beef heart) as nutrient-dense, naturally rich in vitamins A and B12, iron, copper, and folate. Where the label names only the organ (e.g. "liver"), the animal species is not identified.Sources: NRC 2006 · Nutritional composition data

Published nutrition references associate named whole meats with high protein quality.Sources: AAFCO 2024 · NRC 2006 · Amino acid bioavailability studies
