  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 5.1 g − 0 g = 5.1 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
  • Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Beef Liver gives 15.2 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 1.91 kcal/g, Beef Liver is medium on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.
