The Science
Raw beef liver is very high in iron and copper, which are not directly linked to blood pressure, but it contains 5% DV of total fat and no sodium data provided, so its effect on blood pressure is unclear. However, it provides potassium (7% DV), which can help counteract sodium's effects, but the high protein and fat content may not be ideal if the person also has kidney issues or needs to limit animal fats. Without sodium content, it's impossible to definitively say it's good or bad for hypertension.
Recommendation
If consuming, choose small portions and avoid adding salt, but prioritize potassium-rich fruits and vegetables for blood pressure management.
