    You think early humans ate raw livers for vitamin C? Sounds unlikely. We are omnivores, and except for rare exceptions (I.e. on the Northpole) plant material is more abundant than animals.

      Yes, sufficient Vitamin C is in raw liver.

      Before the age of human agriculture we were endurance hunters. Don’t believe me? Go survive off of random unidentified plants for a while. (Don’t actually, you’ll be dead in a month tops).
