Lamb brain is an organ meat, and these figures describe it after boiling. Per 100g, it provides 12g of protein, 8.8g of fat, 8µg of vitamin B12 and 2200mg of cholesterol. Protein and fat are its main energy-providing nutrients, and it also contains minerals including phosphorus and iron.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while vitamin B12 contributes to normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. The cholesterol content is notable for people monitoring their dietary cholesterol intake. Saturated fat and salt are also worth noting when considering the food’s contribution to the overall diet.
