Beef Organs vs. Greens Powders
Posted by Anna Wechsel onWhen Huberman, Joe Rogan and other big names have greens powders as a sponsor…
It HAS to be good for you, right?
Well…
We’re not so sure.
Here's the real deal about "super greens" powders...
Their marketing is GENIUS. Their actual benefits? Not quite what they claim.
And just because they pay the likes of Rogan and Huberman a million dollars to read a script for 16 seconds..
Doesn’t mean it’s the best choice for your health.
Unfortunately - everyone has their price.
Now the thing that frustrates us is…
These powders are being marketed as a “daily staple”...
Your morning multivitamin, if you will…
Cute.
But if that’s their secret selling point…
Here are 5 reasons why Beef Organs absolutely SMASH Greens Powders...
#1 When you ultra-process and concentrate plants into these powders, you're potentially amplifying certain compounds that some people might be sensitive to:
While quality whole plants can absolutely be part of a healthy diet, concentrating them into ultra-processed powders changes the game entirely.
For many people, high doses of plant compounds like oxalates and lectins can trigger gut, skin and other autoimmune issues.
And that’s what makes organs - and animal foods in general - a superior source of nourishment.
It’s all the nutrient-density without the downsides.

#2 Many greens powders are contaminated…
Greens powders? Often made with the cheapest ingredients possible to maximize profit margins.
Many use non-organic plants sprayed with pesticides... which inevitably wind up in the final product.
Some even test positive for concerning levels of heavy metals.
Check your favorite green powder's website for their "acceptable" lead levels – you might be shocked…
Even one of the TOP greens brands that you hear sponsored ads for on many big name podcasts allows up to 4.56mcg of lead per serving (it’s in the analysis on their website).
This is 9x the Californian limit and about 5x more lead than the dark chocolates!
Assuming you’re eating quality beef organs sourced from regenerative farms – you won’t have to worry about chemical sprays, heavy metals or any other contaminants.

#3 They’re basically just green fairy dust…
Ever noticed how greens powders list 30+ ingredients on their labels?
Well, did you ever stop to think HOW MUCH of each ingredient is actually in there?
It’s known as “label stuffing” – aka slipping in as much as you can so it sounds powerful in your marketing.
The truth: "Proprietary blends" contain TINY amounts of most ingredients – far below what research shows is needed for any benefit.
Think about it…
How can 50mg of spirulina deliver benefits when studies use 5-10 GRAMS?!
Plus, have you ever wondered what purpose most of these ingredients actually SERVE?
(If you figure out why humans NEED “Eleuthero” or “Licorice Root” daily… let us know)
Beef organs naturally concentrate nutrients in meaningful amounts…
And includes, you know, the stuff that’s… actually important for your health.
Like…
Vitamins A Retinol, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12.
Takes a deeeep breath
Iron, phosphorous, zinc, copper, CoQ10, and a lot more.
So, if there’s one food that deserves the title of multivitamin…
It’s NOT greens. It’s organs. Hands down.

#4 “Adaptogen Overload” Risks…
Most greens powders are stuffed with trendy adaptogens like ashwagandha, rhodiola, and maca.
What they DON'T tell you: Integrative health practitioners recommend CYCLING these herbs, not taking them every day.
Many adaptogens lose effectiveness or even cause hormonal imbalances when consumed daily without breaks.
Yet these powders market themselves as "daily essentials"... 🤔
Beef organs? They contain natural, balanced nutrition your body has evolved to process daily without negative feedback loops.
There’s virtually no risk of “overdosing” on it’s vitamins, minerals, peptides, co-factors that your body evolved with.
(Nor is there any chance of them messing with your brain’s neurotransmitters the way adaptogens can.)

#5 Bioavailability
Those “impressive nutrient profiles on greens powder labels are practically USELESS without considering bioavailability.
It’s simple science when it comes to absorption.
Animal foods > Plant foods
For example..
The beta-carotene in greens? Your body converts only a fraction to usable vitamin A (and if you have the BC01 gene variant like 45% of people, you convert almost NONE).
The iron in spinach powder? Non-heme iron with low absorption rates of 2-10%.
The "plant protein"? Incomplete amino acid profiles your body struggles to use.
On the other hand, Beef organs deliver a full spectrum of nutrients in their most bioavailable forms.

So when you weigh up all the facts…
It’s pretty hard to justify those expensive greens powders.
Not surprising really…
Humans evolved consuming organ meats for MILLIONS of years.
Our bodies are DESIGNED to recognize, absorb, and utilize these nutrients efficiently.
Greens powders? A modern invention created by marketing teams to capitalize on health trends.
Honestly, It's funny how we've made nutrition so complicated when our ancestors had it figured out all along.
They ate a balanced diet that included mostly nose-to-tail animal foods alongside seasonal plants.
You know what they didn’t do? Crush a bazillion plants into powder.
And shockingly, they managed to do pretty well all these years.
But let's be honest…
Many of us find organs even less appetizing that a sweet green cup of mud…
So we know you're not going to start cooking up liver and kidney for breakfast tomorrow.
(though if you do, respect! 💪)
That's why thousands in our community opt to get their nose-to-tail nourishment with our convenient desiccated beef organs capsules.
