This soup for those who DARE eat innards. If you are then you may continue to read on otherwise just skip this article. I do enjoy eating organ meats [like pig tripes and heart] but not that often. So once in a blue moon is alright to devour it.
Was told that it has the least fat and cholesterol compared to other organ meats. Visit this website for more information and understanding of pig's organ meats. Below is an excerpt about pig heart health benefits.
"Heart Health Benefits
Heart provides high-quality protein and less fat and cholesterol than other organ meats.
The heart is a very concentrated source of CoQ10. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is necessary for the basic functioning of cells, as well as optimizing the heart’s rhythm. CoQ10 levels are reported to decrease with age and to be lower in some patients with some chronic diseases such as heart conditions, muscular dystrophies, Parkinson’s disease, cancer, diabetes, and HIV / AIDS.
The heart also contains twice as much collagen and elastin than regular meat, which is good for the skin and connective tissue, and actually helps prevent wrinkling and aging.
Heart is high in vitamin B12, iron, and potassium, in addition, also contains Selenium, Phosphorus & Zinc, along with essential amino acids that help build muscle, store energy and boost stamina and endurance."The soup is herbally, clear and tasty. For better taste you can even add a handful of fresh clams to cook just before serving.
