Obviously, foie gras is not a food to eat at all meals, especially if you pay attention to your figure since it brings 450 calories per 100 grams. But, for all that, no need to feel guilty about eating it! Indeed, foie gras provides lipids of interest to health, monounsaturated fatty acids which protect against cardiovascular disease.
In addition, it has a high level of vitamin B9, excellent for the balance of our cardiovascular system, because it destroys the accumulation in the arteries of a toxic substance, homocysteine. This sulfur amino acid promotes the appearance of atherosclerosis, ie the aging of the arteries.
