Depends how you define substitute. If you check out the stats, it has less of the nutrients per volume than beef liver, etc.
I suppose it depends on why you are eating it, if you want a big retinol, copper, bang for the buck, I would stay with beef liver, you wouldn't have to eat as much. But chicken liver is better than none. I think because it isn't as dense as beef liver, you can use it more liberally in a culinary sense (most people like the taste of chicken liver better).

what about PUFAs?
I don't know if RP still thinks that way though.
I have eaten lots of chicken meal for three days this week, and my appetite has been lowered a lot. Is it possible that eating a lot of chicken liver for a few days in nearly every meal to suppress the appetite? It still hasn't normalized for the last four days.

Maybe wouldn't be bad if they were 100% range/grass fed, not having omega-6 from commercial feed.
If you get good quality chicken, yes. It definitely tastes milder (and better) than lamb or beef, IMO. Plus 4-5 OZ a week of it is hardly going to be bad amounts of pufa.
I cut off the visible fat from the chicken liver. I don't care about the remaining pufa.
Is it really that important to find good quality - 100% free range, grass fed chicken liver? Hard to find...
I would guess that free-range, grass fed chicken liver would have less toxins, higher vitamin content, and maybe a better hormonal profile?

Difference is higher pufa, higher iron and lower B-vitamins, retinol and copper. Probably better than no liver at all though.
Yeah I think that's the case, though I am open to suggestions or discussions about the chicken liver vs other liver topic.

Chicken livers are more available where I live, but I can find calves liver. I’d not look forward to beef liver which is pretty tough.
I always feel an energy surge with calves liver and never feel it with chicken livers. That’s important to me.
While I loathe the preparation, calves liver cooked right I love.

Hmm wouldn‘t ox meat be beef? Both sound great to me btw...
@Beefcake no, it's actually a complete lie. Firstly, you can eat chicken liver every day, a jan 350g chicken liver will contain about 2.5g PUFA, while providing you with much more B vitamins, zinc, much less copper, equal a amount of vitamin E, like beef's, only beef liver you can only eat 2 times a week if you do not have the opportunity to supplement zinc
