Heart, pig, stewed

Pig heart is an organ meat. The figures here describe it stewed, with the fat and valves removed before cooking. It mainly provides protein and fat, along with several vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 25g of protein, 6.8g of fat, 5.3mg of iron and 2µg of vitamin B12.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Added salt or other ingredients used during cooking can change the nutritional content of the finished dish. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
