Optimised Female
Eating whole animals, nose-to-tail, was a way of life for humans for the majority of our existence up until recent history. In the past people believed that consuming the organ of a healthy animal would strengthen and enhance the health of their own corresponding organ. For example, if a woman was struggling with with fertility they would be fed the reproductive organs of a female animal, which were considered the most virile part. Interestingly, this is just now being validated by science. Research conducted at the University of Edinburgh in animal models has shown conclusively that when eaten, organs and glands selectively travel to the corresponding organs of the consumer in high concentrations. Therefore when the reproductive glands of a healthy animal are consumed, the unique growth factors and minerals like zinc within them, which are key for female vitality, travel to your own reproductive organs. This in turn can support female health.
Indigenous people also appreciated that animals gave their lives to ensure us as humans could survive and thrive so they left nothing go to waste. And because of their deep connection with the earth and their own bodies they intuitively knew just how nutrient dense organ meat is and would prize this over muscle meats. Fast forward to today and the immense powers of organs have somewhat been forgotten. What was once highly sought after is now rarely consumed and generally people no longer enjoy the taste. We created our nose-to-tail line to help people reintroduce these ancestral superfoods, loaded with nutrients in an easy to consume and flavourless way.

Can you take liver capsules during pregnancy?
Every body is different and every pregnancy is different, so when it comes to delicate situations like this, we like to refer to the experts. Registered Dietician/Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, research, and author Lily Nichols, in her book "Real Food for Pregnancy: the science and wisdom of optimal prenatal nutrition says "Liver is one of the richest food sources of folate and vitamin B12, both key in maintaining healthy red blood cells and fostering healthy brain development in your baby. Many of you reading this may have been specifically warned NOT to consume liver during pregnancy, precisely because it is rich in vitamin A...However, we now know that naturally occurring vitamin A does NOT exert toxicity, particularly when consumed with adequate vitamin D and vitamin K2, nutrients that are also found in abundance in liver. This illustrates perfecting why obtaining nutrients from food is far safer than getting them from supplements". (p. 33-34).
She goes on to say "liver and supplements are not equivalent...Advice to pregnant women on the consumption of liver based on the reported Vitamin A toxicity supplements, should be reconsidered" (p.34).
Finally, Lily states " when buying liver, remember that source matters. This organ is designed to filter toxins and store nutrients, so ideally, seek liver from healthy, pasture-raised animals. If you're especially averse to the taste, you can purchase desiccated liver from grass-fed cows in capsule form and take it as a supplement" (p.35)
