WHOLE BONE EXTRACT SUPPORTS... Bone Health (think bones, marrow and teeth)... Based On "Like Supports Like" Connective Tissue Health (think ligaments, tendons, cartilage, skin)...Based On "Like Supports Like" Dental Health And Immune Health Supports And Repairs Cellular Damage NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH GRASS FED BONE MARROW For most of human history, we effortlessly consumed (nose-to-tail) the things we needed for strength, health and happiness. Like the fertile ground that we once walked upon, we were a natural extension of this earth. In the modern world, we unknowingly struggle to fulfill our nutritional needs in order to support and sustain a vibrant, disease-free life. We are now part of a world where bone, dental and connective tissue health is struggling. At the heart of our whole bone extract is bone marrow... bone marrow contains all the nutrients and substances that the body uses to build, repair, and maintain our living bones and connective tissues. There’s clearly something special (nutritionally) about bone marrow. The healthy peoples studied by Dr. Weston A. Price valued bone marrow, when they could get it. Some would crack open the bones and eat it raw, while others would simmer marrow bones in their broths. In the wild, animals go for the marrow, instinctively. For instance, wolves given access to full deer carcasses gravitated toward those bones with “high marrow yields,” taking care to “destroy the epiphyses” where the marrow was most plentiful.[2] Whole food, nutrient dense bone, marrow and cartilage can provide great benefit for those seeking targeted support in harmony with nature — the old fashioned way, the way that our early ancestors did.* Grassfed Bone Marrow is a whole bone extract and dietary supplement that provides 100% pure bovine bone, marrow and cartilage as it exists in nature. This whole food contains all the nutrients (collagen, growth factors, stem cells, fat soluble activators, trace minerals, etc) that support bone, dental and connective tissue health.*[3] Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out. New Zealand Our product is 100% sourced in New Zealand. In agricultural circles, it's known that the clean air, green pastures, and animal husbandry is at a higher level Ultra Pure Our product is 100% pure... This means that you won't see any of the extra stuff that most supplement companies include to save time and money (stearates, silica, etc) Freeze Dried Our product is 100% freeze dried in contrast to the heat processed varieties. This means that you get more of the heat sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors that make organ meats so incredibly nourishing CONSIDER THE SOURCE New Zealand seems like it was made for raising healthy cattle. Its location and climate produce pristine conditions for cattle, and the farmers have uncanny expertise handed down for generations. New Zealand is unique among meat-producing regions in the world because its climate is moderate so the grass in the pastures grows fresh and grows green year-round which means the cows can eat the food that’s healthiest for them every day of the year. Our nose-to-tail product line is always from grassfed, inspected animals born and raised without the use of pesticides, hormones or antibiotics. Health of livestock used for manufacturing in New Zealand is closely monitored by a world leading biosecurity system that is second to none, and is a global exemplar. Strict government licensing, auditing and certification procedures mean that our genuine New Zealand freeze dried products can be used with complete confidence in their origin, safety and efficacy. Freeze-drying preserves the heat sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors of components leaving the nutrients in the same balance as found in nature. BENEFITS OF EATING BONE MARROW Traditional peoples, Native Americans and early ancestral healers believed that eating the organs from a healthy animal would strengthen and support the health of the corresponding organ of the individual. For instance, the traditional way of treating a person with a weak heart was to feed the person the heart of a healthy animal. Similarly, eating the kidneys of a healthy animal was believed to support urinary ailments and overall kidney health... Pancreas was fed to people with digestive problems... and spleen was fed to people with immune and blood deficiencies.*[4] Bone, marrow and cartilage was no different. Weston Price DDS, Author of Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, studied the dietary habits of traditional peoples across the globe. He found that the natives of Canada put great stock in consuming animal organ meats, especially bone marrow. He reported: “Indians putting great emphasis upon the eating of the organs of the animals, including the wall of parts of the digestive tract. Much of the muscle meat of the animals was fed to the dogs. It is important that skeletons are rarely found where large game animals have been slaughtered by the Indians of the North. The skeletal remains are found as piles of finely broken bone chips or splinters that have been cracked up to obtain as much as possible of the marrow and nutritive qualities of the bones. These Indians obtain their fat-soluble vitamins and also most of their minerals from the organs of the animals. An important part of the nutrition of the children consisted in various preparations of bone marrow, both as a substitute for milk and as a special dietary ration.” [5] Organ meats and bone marrow were a staple of our early ancestors' diets as the ultimate superfood, for good reason. It turns out, this nourishing tradition is backed by science... "Radioisotope labeling studies in animals have shown conclusively that, when eaten, organs and glands selectively travel to the corresponding organs and glands in high concentrations. This research, done at the University of Scotland in Edinburgh, lends credence to the ancient practice of eating animal organs to help ensure health in one’s corresponding organs..." - Dr. Ron Schmid, ND.*[6] Our early ancestors knew this, which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of nose-to-tail organs meats. — Based on the ancient ancestral wisdom that "like supports like." Consuming bone, marrow and cartilage supports our own bones (including teeth), bone marrow and connective tissues * — — Contains all the nutrients, specialized cells (including stem cells and base cells), collagen, growth factors, fat soluble activators and substances that the body uses to build, repair, and maintain our living bones, connective tissues and more * [7] — — In the Chinese paradigm, bone marrow is considered the deepest tissue of the body and contains the essence of the being. Itʼs an interesting correlation to consider that modern science has shown that within bone marrow are high concentrations of stem cells, the very organizing influences, and genetic material, for the being. It is these essential nutrients that help our bodies continue to build healthy, vital constitutions and repair cellular damage * [1] — AKGs serve as powerful immune system boosters, helping to fight infectious disease and even treatment resistant conditions. If you want to know more about this fascinating compound, scroll towards the bottom of this page to read "MORE ON THE AKG STORY" or try Googling about "Dr Astrid Brohult discovers AKGs effectiveness in treating children with leukemia." NOTE: There are two types of bone marrow: red marrow (also known as myeloid tissue) and yellow marrow. Red blood cells, platelets and most white blood cells arise in red marrow; some white blood cells develop in yellow marrow.*[8] NOTE: There are a number of caves that show long evidence of human habitation, going all the way back to the Paleolithic period. All of these caves contained ancient fire pits. And all of these caves contained the remnants of large piles of bones. The bones that were found were animal bones. Almost without exception, they had been cracked open, and every trace of the marrow removed.*[3] SUGGESTED USE (6 CAPSULES A DAY) Our Grassfed Bone Marrow is a whole food dietary supplement that provides whole bone extract — bovine bone matrix, bone marrow and cartilage in the physiological amounts that exist in harmony with nature. This product can be taken with (or) without food (even though it technically is food). The suggested use is 6 capsules a day or as directed by a healthcare professional — for added support, the dose can be doubled. NOTE: "Bone marrow was a sacred food for many pre-industrialized Indian cultures. Marrow was considered a special dietary ration for growing children and also served as a substitute for breast milk when necessary." - Jessica Haggard, Carnivore Diet Meal Plan HIGH QUALITY ORGANS, GLANDS & MARROW Okay, you're convinced! You're going to start incorporating whole bone extract and marrow in your routine because, well... you're educated now... you understand, just as our early ancestors did, that they provide superlative health benefits that are missing in our modern diets.* The next step is sourcing it. It's important that you source the highest quality because not all organs and glands are created equal. Consider the source. Should Come From An Unpolluted Geographical Region — Isolated, Healthy, Pristine Lands Should Come From Pasture Raised Cows Should Come From Grass-Fed & Grass-Finished Cows Should Come From Cows That Are Hormone, Pesticide & GMO Free Should Also Be Ultra Pure... Absolutely No Fillers (or) Flow Agents, No Allergens Should Be Non-Defatted, The Way It Exists In Nature Should Be 100% Freeze Dried... Freeze Drying Preserves Heat Sensitive Biological Activity SUGGESTED SUPPLEMENTS If you're going to pick just one ancestral supplement to start with, make it our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER... unless you need targeted support with another specific organ system (see below). If you are going to pick two supplements, our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER and our GRASS FED BEEF ORGANS provide complementary and synergistic nourishment. If you can add a third supplement, GRASS FED BONE MARROW fills fat soluble nutrition gaps and provides the fat soluble activators that nutrition giant Dr. Weston Price extensively wrote about. Grass Fed Beef Liver Grass Fed Beef Organs (liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, spleen) Grass Fed Bone Marrow On the other hand, if you're looking for targeted organ support, you may be interested in our GRASS FED BEEF HEART to support heart health (or) our GRASS FED THYROID to support a struggling thyroid (or) our GRASS FED SPLEEN to support spleen and immune health... you get the picture.* We have a nose-to-tail product line that can be found on our "Products" page. If you can't find what you're looking for (or) you're not sure what you're looking for, send us an email and we'll do everything we can to help. GRASSFED WHOLE BONE EXTRACT & MARROW SUMMARY Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of nose-to-tail dining since the beginning of time. Grassfed Beef Marrow can provide great benefit for those seeking targeted support in harmony with nature.* Based on the concept of "like supports like," consuming bone, marrow and cartilage may strengthen and support our own bone, marrow and cartilage health.* Whole bone extract and marrow naturally provides all the nutrients (collagen, growth factors, stem cells, fat soluble activators, trace minerals, etc) that support bone, dental and connective tissue health.*[2] Not all organs and glands are the same. Look for the highest quality whole bone extract and marrow... It should come from pasture-raised, grass-fed cows that are hormone, pesticide and GMO free. If considering a supplement, look for one that is ultra pure (without binders, fillers (or) flow agents) and look for the freeze dried variety as these have been shown to optimally preserve nutritional factors, co-factors and biological activity. NOTE: Whole bone (or) whole bone extract can be found by various names: MCHA, ossein hydroxyapatite, MCHC, or microcrystalline hydroxyapatite calcium. ACTIVATING AN ANCIENT PATHWAY [FOR DENTAL HEALTH] “These people, who talk little and sleep naturally, have no dentists nor dentifrice, nor do they require either; their teeth almost invariably rise from the gums and arrange themselves as regular as the keys of a piano; and without decay or aches, preserve their soundness and enamel, and powers of mastication.” — Painting & Writing by George Catlin (1832) [12] Our early ancestors didn’t brush… didn’t floss… didn’t get cavities. This is my “go to” line because it seems that the more we brush and floss and use fluoride, the more cavities we get. Obviously, brushing and flossing aren’t the answer, but don’t tell this to the multi-billion dollar dental industry (nor to the allopathic dentist). We all have the ability to remineralize our teeth… to withstand acidic insults… to arrest and resist decay. Nutrition giants Weston A. Price & May Mellanby published the data proving the vital importance that the fat soluble vitamins A, D and K play in tooth remineralization. Wife is a biological dentist (of 20 years)… I own a supplement company (yours truly). In fact, we developed a consumable product together called “Tooth Restore” that was rich in vitamins A, D, K, magnesium, phosphorus (and others)… This is not in production nor commercially available; nor does it need to be for people to glean the benefits, because as you know, nourishing food comes first — Tooth Restore was a combination product of Liver, Bone Marrow, vitamin D and K2 (mk-4) and magnesium. — Vitamins A, D, and K2 cooperate synergistically not only with each other, but also with essential minerals like magnesium and zinc, with dietary fat, and with key metabolic factors like thyroid hormone * — — Vitamins A, D, and K2 interact synergistically to support energy metabolism, immune health, provide for adequate growth, support strong bones and teeth, and protect soft tissues from calcification * — — Magnesium is required for the production of all proteins, including those that interact with vitamins A and D * — Our liver product is high in real, preformed vitamin A (5,000 iu per serving). That said, if you are deficient in vitamin D, vitamin K2 and/or magnesium, you will not see as much benefit as you could (nor) will you be optimizing other important health metrics. Do you regularly get mid day sun exposure, or take a vitamin D3 supplement? Do you eat fermented veggies like kimchi or sauerkraut, or take a vitamin K2 complex supplement? Do you take a magnesium supplement (I personally recommend a transdermal magnesium oil spray because it's virtually impossible to get enough magnesium from diet alone). [ NOTE: Bone marrow, organ meats and wild fish eggs are likely rich in vitamin K2 (the MK-4 variety) and the other fat-soluble nutrients, but formal tests to determine the exact range and amount remain to be carried out.[11] While smashing bones and sucking out the marrow fat was the hard way our ancestors obtained vitamin K, it's not that difficult to obtain marrow bones and either oven roast 3" pieces to serve as appetisers, or slow cook them to make them extra delicious / nutritious... or, look for a good bone marrow supplement! ] The take home message here is live life in harmony with nature, the way of our early ancestors… love your bone soups, look to liver, get sensible sun exposure, eat your fermented foods (natto reigns supreme) and mind your magnesium. If you want fresh breath, brush your teeth (see below). If you want oral health, nourish your body. People with periodontal issues (e.g. deep pockets, recurrent infection, bone loss/recession, etc) will also need additional support from whole bone extract (bone, marrow and cartilage), CoQ10 (or Beef Heart) and collagen. Ideally, we would consume these nourishing nutrients by indulging in the deliciousness of true bone broth, bone marrow and organ meats (heart is the richest source of CoQ10 that exists in nature). These additional nose-to-tail nutrients could easily be the missing link to the strength, energy and other health benefits that we are all after. Send me an email... let me know your thoughts... let me know your questions. I'd love to hear from you. Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out. P.S. For those that need intensive support to regain your dental strength and health, consider practicing a ketogenic diet as a "supplement" to everything above. Ketosis helps to deprive the bad bacteria of an energy source... less energy means less fermentation... means less acidic byproducts to demineralize teeth and bone (think recession)... Wife, the biological dentist, has been using this supplemental strategy with her patients for over a decade, way before it became "trendy!" It's also incredibly helpful to swish with sea salt water throughout the day, and especially after eating and drinking, to maintain a balanced pH. Lastly, Bovine Tracheal Cartilage (BTC) has proven to be incredibly helpful with treatment resistant conditions and wound healing (tons of peer-reviewed studies on these topics). If you don't know about BTC, you need to. Go here... This stuff works! Ketogenic diet as a "supplement" Salt water rinses Bovine Tracheal Cartilage (BTC) Ovine Thymus (see below) As far as brushing goes, by all means, do it when you feel like it... we recommend using a Bass brush (or) a chewing stick just like our early ancestors did which shows parallel, or even greater efficacy, as compared to standard brushing (see study). When we brush, we use a homemade concoction of bentonite clay, coconut oil, colloidal silver and sea salt with a dash of peppermint oil. There's even a commercial product out there by Uncle Harry's Natural Products that's very similar. ANCESTRAL SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY FOR DENTAL HEALTH Grass Fed Liver (or) Bovine Tracheal Cartilage because our BTC already has liver in it! Grass Fed Bone Marrow Grass Fed Thymus - get this for immune support if dealing with chronic and / or recurrent infections Magnesium... transdermal magnesium oil (by Ancient Minerals) applied to feet before bed and oral magnesium (by Trace Minerals; Mega Mag) Vitamin D3 - get this from sensible sunshine, wild fish eggs or a supplement Vitamin K2 - get this from fermented veggies like kimchi, sauerkraut or natto (MK-7) and get this from marrow, organ meats and wild fish eggs (MK-4) Grass Fed Heart - get this if needing gum support too Grass Fed Collagen - get this if needing gum support too UVEX Glasses (see our "About Us" page to know why) Practice Fasting - this is the most powerful metabolic intervention to restore general, system health and oral health. See our "About Us" page to see how I do it. UPDATE: Wife also makes her patients turn off their wifi routers at night, leave their cell phones out of the bedroom and remove electrical devices within a 12 foot radius of the bed (one's pillow should also not be near a power outlet). If you can get away from bathing in non-native EMFs, health and healing has a better chance. Many times, all you need to do is use an EMF meter to see where the fields have biological implications and then re-position the offensive device... sometimes you may need to re-position your bed, chair or sitting area. If you've tried absolutely EVERYTHING and you're still having issues, cut out the phytates and the lectins for six months and stay the course with everything above. VITAMIN K2: MK-7 (VS) MK-4 SUMMARY There's K2 (MK-7) that comes from bacterial fermentation and then there's K2 (MK-4) that comes from animals. K2 (MK-7). Get this from fermented veggies like homemade kimchi and sauerkraut made with Kinetic Culture (my favorite) or buy a boutique brand at the store and make sure that it's raw, NOT pasteurized. If you can spoon some nattō into your mouth (and manage to swallow it), do it every time there's a blue moon or a solar eclipse. You'll also find some of this MK-7 variety in diary too. K2 (MK-4 ). Get this from grass fed / grass finished organ meats, bone marrow, wild fish eggs, and to a lesser degree, pasture raised (totally organic) egg yolks. You can even get this in desiccated Grass Fed Beef Brain / desiccated Bone Marrow in capsule form (yes, that's a shameless plug!). If you throw in the towel altogether, make sure that you're getting a good K2 complex supplement with multiple forms of K2 (especially MK-7 and MK-4) and make sure that it's GMO free since it will likely be coming from soy... you already know the backstory there. DEAR VEGANS & VEGETARIANS Written by Holistic Biological Dentist & Functional Practitioner: Barbara Johnson, DDS, FP I have had the distinct pleasure of getting to deeply know many of my patients that abstain from red meat as well as other animal foods. One thing is for certain, the world needs more people like you... the world needs more people that make such conscientious decisions, with such principle-centered compassion, and such regard for all walks of life. I have no doubt that this, in part, is why I've developed such kinship-like bonds with many of my vegetarian patients... patients that have become wonderful friends... friends that I deeply care about. This is why it breaks my heart to see the devastating consequences of abstaining from our most basic nutritional needs... the critically important fat soluble vitamins (A, D & K — especially MK-4 because it is what fuels the body, down to the mitochondrial electron transport chain but it is also involved in creating the vitamin K dependent proteins, activating specific genes and making testosterone (and other hormones)) and others. With over 20 years of treating patients, I have come to the definitive conclusion that the poorest of oral health is categorically presented by that of vegans and vegetarians. Their oral health is almost always worse than that of the chain smoker, candy addicts and even the chemo patient. In the early stages, these patients present with tooth sensitivity and gum recession (which is actually early bone loss). In the moderate stages, the presentation includes deeper decay, exposed root tips and the shifting of teeth. Advanced stages include chronic and recurrent infections (root canals and abscesses) and some tooth mobility. That which presents in the mouth is an indication of what's going on in the body and brain. Commonly, these patients also present with anxiety and malaise, eczema, muscle rigidity, general aches, low energy, gut and digestive issues, high inflammation markers, allergies and brain fog. And yes, fertility, libido and thyroid function will also be severely compromised in this patient population as well. I learned long ago that I couldn't help this patient population unless they changed their diets. While I'd prefer to see the inclusion of organ meats and nourishing animal fats like marrow, suet, tallow and lard, I at least need to see a willingness to practice ovo-lacto vegetarianism and even perhaps pescetarianism. If you can't do this, I can't help you... I've tried and I've tried and I've tried; there's no more amount of trying that can make it work. That said, the following are some of the nutrient dense foods that can provide back some of the fundamental nourishment needed to restore and rehabilitate health and healing: Organic Pastured Eggs; especially the yolks and especially not overcooked Organic Pastured Egg Shells (for the collagen, hyaluronic acid and glycosaminoglycans) Raw Full-Fat Dairy Including Grass Fed Milk, Cream, Butter, Cheeses, Kefir and Yogurts Organic Pastured-Raised Ghee Wild Fish Eggs Skin-On, Bone-In Sardines Highly Suggested Supplements: Liver & Bone Marrow For my non-vegetarian patients, I won't even consider treating them unless we've addressed the root of the problem. I don't perform band-aid work; as such, they must include the aforementioned foods as well as a diet that's rich in organ meats, bone marrow and the nourishing animal fats that allow the fat soluble activators to do their magic. Like most people, most patients are not willing to make major life changes so I prescribe a lot of Ancestral Supplements prior to performing ANY treatment. If you'd like to know more about my targeted supplement strategies, read the above section entitled ACTIVATING AN ANCIENT PATHWAY [FOR DENTAL HEALTH] — many are vegetarian-friendly inclusions that make all the difference (e.g. magnesium, sun). I have the highest respect and admiration for those vegetarians that live with such altruistic values. Many of whom I have the pleasure of calling my dear friends. Unfortunately, evolutionary biology is not on your side with the dietary choices that support your beliefs and your health is suffering as a consequence. In honor of the bonds that I have formed with these wonderful people, I am making a plea... I'm asking for your willingness to include the whole egg (including the shells), raw dairy and wild fish eggs into your diet. Not only will this address the root issue related to your oral health conditions, this will address all those other health issues related to mood, skin, gut and fertility that go hand-in-hand with long-term malnourishment. I know this won't help everyone, but if it helps anyone, it's a step in the right direction. Thank you. COLLAGEN [VS] OUR BONE MARROW To be certain, collagen peptides offer many benefits… however, collagen peptides will not contain bone marrow (nor) the incredible nourishment of the bone matrix which is at the heart of whole bone extracts and bone soups… this is because almost all commercial collagen supplements come from the hides, not the bones. IS COLLAGEN AND BONE BROTH THE SAME? This is almost like asking if vitamin A offers the same benefits as beef liver. Just as collagen is an important constituent of bone broth so too is vitamin A an important constituent of beef liver. But… there’s a whole lot more to the story when it comes to bone broth than just the all mighty collagen. For instance, bone broth provides everything that’s in the bone matrix (calcium hydroxyapatite, osteocalcium phosphate, collagen, proteoglycans, matrix proteins, cytokines and growth factors, etc), the bone marrow (fat soluble activators and stem cells), the cartilage and yes, it provides collagen peptides too. Keep in mind that collagen supplements come from the hides, not the bones. Don’t get me wrong… collagen peptides are awesome… they just happen to be one of the several reasons that bone broth (and our Bone Marrow) are one of the most nourishing foods in existence. If you can make a homemade bone soup with the femur bone down to the knuckle's end, and you can simmer it for days to extract these ancient nutrients, do it!! There's nothing's better... or is there? Our Bone Marrow supplement will give this bone soup a run for its money. Yes, it's made from the femur bone down to the knuckle's end... Yes, it provides the whole bone matrix... Yes, it provides all the goodness of the bone marrow... Yes, it's rich in cartilage and collagen... they may share the same ingredients but our Bone Marrow product is freeze dried instead of heat processed to keep growth factors and other heat sensitive biological activity intact. NUTRIENT PROFILE Our Grassfed Bone Marrow is a whole food dietary supplement that comes from the femur bone all the way down to the knuckle's end. This is what we refer to as "whole bone extract" which provides the bone matrix (calcium hydroxyapatite, osteocalcium phosphate, collagen, proteoglycans, matrix proteins, cytokines and growth factors), the bone marrow (fat soluble activators and stem cells), the cartilage and yes, it provides collagen peptides too. All of the building blocks (including trace minerals like boron) are present in our whole bone extract product. These nourishing constituents are in the proper physiological amounts that exist in harmony with nature. We are in the process of developing assays for some of our products. For the time being, I hope that you will find some value in knowing that these health promoting nutrients are offered to us in the same balance that is found in nature... the same balance that our early ancestors would have consumed... the same balance that gave traditional people strong, flexible joints and bones, (including teeth) throughout long and productive lives. TOO MUCH CALCIUM I totally agree with the too much calcium concern... people have been told for decades to get more of the stuff and it's backfiring. Perhaps you too have read "The Calcium Paradox" so you know better... perhaps you know that when calcium is not married with the fat solubles (D, A and especially K2), trouble can arise. Perhaps you know that vitamin D3 is required to absorb Ca... vitamin A is required for osteoclastic activity / bone remodeling so that substrates like Ca actually have a home to go to... K2 is required to usher Ca out of the soft tissues (which is where trouble can arise) and into the hard tissues like bones and teeth. If you're concerned about voltage gated calcium channels (vgcc), move away from the EMFs (turn off the wifi already, especially at night) and continue to mind your magnesium. If it were me, I would continue to get my nourishment from actual foods, soil and sun... exactly the way that our DNA evolved getting it... exactly the way that our early ancestors got it! As it relates to our whole bone extract, bear in mind that it's the whole thing... it's the calf's femur bone down to the knuckles end... teeming with growth factors... tons of fat soluble activators... tons of bovine cartilage... tons of stem cells... tons of micronutrients found all together in protective, cooperative and synergistic harmony... the way nature made it! WE EVOLVED EATING THE WHOLE BONE Our evolutionary hunter ancestors, take the Inuit for instance, had a wise tradition of harvesting bones and pulverizing them into a powder. Then there are the early natives of Africa that made fermented bone paste out of small game animals. Or, take other tribes like the Nunamiut, or even earlier ancestors, when bone soups were almost always on the menu as evidenced by fire remains and the many mounds of brittle bone fragments... bone soups were a popular menu item as a resourceful way to extract the whole life giving nourishment from the whole bone. It was common that bones would be recycled until they had absolutely nothing left to offer. The whole bone (i.e. marrow, matrix, cartilage, collagen, peptides, enzymes, vitamins and abundant minerals) is in harmony with our evolutionary past. It's the same nourishment that our DNA evolved with that enabled us Sapiens to reach the top of the food chain. It's the same nourishment that our DNA still expects today (in the modern world) to be our strongest, healthiest and happiest. I hope this helps! I hope that you love this stuff! If you do, let us know about it... if you don't, let us know about it! GLUTAMATE INTOLERANCE If you and the deeply nourishing sustenance of bone soups don't mix, you have may have glutamate intolerance. Chris Masterjohn, PhD is an absolute giant in the field of nutrition and functional health. Here's what he recommends to improve glutamate intolerance, the offending agent in bone broth, collagen and perhaps fermented foods. Increase opposing mechanistic amino acids to balance glutamate - GABA, 100 to 1000mg per day before high glutamate meal Increase opposing mechanistic amino acids to balance glutamate - glycine, 3 to 5g before high glutamate meal Get even more vitamin B6 (P5P), 5 to 10mg a day More magnesium - orally and topically, 300 to 400mg orally Electrolytes from pinches of pink Himalayan sea salt throughout the day (I do 8g a day) and potassium-rich foods like avocados and almond butter. If the issue is a mast cell / histamine clearance issue, you may need more DAO in the diet. DAO is the enzyme that clears food born histamine. The richest source of natural, dietary DAO comes from Kidney. Learn more on our Kidney page by scrolling to the section that reads "Suggested Dosing." FOR HISTAMINE SUPPORT (DAO) Take 10 minutes before histamine-rich foods. Suggested use is 1-3 capsules per meal or as directed by a healthcare professional. Start with just 1 capsule; slowly work up to therapeutic dose (see "Potential Issues" below). MORE ON THE AKG (ALKYLGLYCEROLS) STORY In the mid 1900s, Swedish oncologist Dr. Astrid Brohult was working with leukemia patients in a children’s hospital. Leukemia is a devastating cancer that affects white blood cells, specifically leukocytes, which are the immune system’s front-line, manufactured deep within the bone marrow. When leukemia strikes, leukocyte production rebels and runs amok. With the concept of "like supports like," Dr. Brohult fed healthy calve’s marrow to the affected children in her care. While native principles of "like supports like" had been well established with glandular therapies (e.g. Thyroid, Insulin and Liver), Dr. Brohult had little more than inner-wisdom and a hunch. With a favorable benefit : risk profile that's inherent with almost all whole foods, she proceeded with this ancient practice, believing and hoping that healthy bone marrow from calves might trigger a resumption of healthy function in humans. Turns out, many of her patients experienced rapid and remarkable improvements that included a normalization of white blood cell activity and a striking return of energy.[13] Dr. Brohult immediately faced the challenge of isolating the active component in the marrow and spleen (AKGs) in order to devise a more palatable source of the wondrous substance. POSSIBLE MECHANISMS Once again, there's nourishment in Liver, Bone Marrow and other Organ Meats that nourish the deepest parts of our cells. Every wild animal is instinctively smarter than us domesticated sapiens. In addition to the incredible smorgasbord of nourishment, perhaps something greater, or at least in parallel, could be at play... "Recently, scientific interest in the therapeutic potential for gland and organ tissues has increased with advances in oral tolerance or oral tolerization (OT). In terms of gland or organ therapy, OT refers to the process of feeding specific animal proteins, termed oral auto-antigens, to a patient with an autoimmune condition." When the gland or organ protein is fed to the animal and passes through the gut immune tissue, it is thought to provide decoy tissue and desensitize the body’s immune response to these proteins, thus calming the body’s response to its own, similar tissue. In other words, if we ingest healthy bone marrow, thyroid or liver tissue, the body may turn the autoimmune attack to those ingested materials instead of attacking our own tissue, thus resting and recovering our native organs and glands. "During this process, immune cells are transformed from “attacking” or “inflammatory” cells to less reactive cells, termed “regulatory” cells. OT also stimulates the production of “regulatory cytokines” that help to moderate inflammatory responses within the body. For example, a patient with chronic colitis could be fed colonic proteins. Studies have shown that feeding these patients the same protein that matches the compromised tissue in the body stimulates immune cells to release inhibitory cytokines, substances that can suppress inflammation and the autoimmune response. While the first work on OT occurred in the 1890s at the same time that GT was common in medical practice, OT has been shown to suppress autoimmune processes in both animals and humans. Examples include multiple sclerosis, diabetes, asthma, antigen-induced arthritis, and encephalitis. The primary area of interest for OT is in management of autoimmune conditions."

Beef Thyroid provides deep nourishment to balance, support and strengthen our own thyroid as well as nourish thyroid receptors at the cellular level.

Thyroid, Energy, Mood & Metabolism Health Liver Health, Detoxification & Methylation Immune Health Connective Tissue Health — Traditional peoples, Native Americans and early ancestral healers knew that eating the organs from a healthy animal would strengthen and support the health of the corresponding organ of the individual 1 — NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH GRASS FED NATURAL DESICCATED THYROID [NDT] For most of human history, we effortlessly consumed (nose-to-tail) the things we needed for strength, health and happiness. Like the fertile ground that we once walked upon, we were a natural extension of this earth. In the modern world, we unknowingly struggle to fulfill our nutritional needs in order to support and sustain a vibrant, disease-free life. Up to 20% of the U.S. adult population has subclinical hypothyroidism.[2] An additional 12% of the U.S. population will develop a clinical thyroid condition during their lifetime.[3] Whole food, nutrient dense organs and glands can provide great benefit for those seeking targeted support in harmony with nature — the old fashioned way, the way that our early ancestors did. Grassfed Beef Thyroid is a whole food dietary supplement that provides natural desiccated thyroid (with liver). These whole foods provide the nutrients, proteins, peptides, cofactors and enzymes to nourish, balance and support thyroid health. The addition of liver fills nutrition gaps more completely than any other food (see thyroid nutrition below). Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out (to return people back to strength, health and happiness). FACT: Grassfed Beef Thyroid is a natural, whole food dietary supplement, unlike Armour, Naturethroid, Westhroid-P (WP) and NP Thyroid which are concentrated USP thyroid extracts derived from porcine. New Zealand — Our product is 100% sourced in New Zealand. In agricultural circles, it's known that the clean air, green pastures, and animal husbandry is at a higher level Ultra Pure — Our product is 100% pure... This means that you won't see any of the extra stuff that most supplement companies include to save time and money (stearates, silica, etc) Freeze Dried — Our product is 100% freeze dried in contrast to the heat processed varieties. This means that you get more of the heat sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors that make organ meats so incredibly nourishing CONSIDER THE SOURCE New Zealand seems like it was made for raising healthy cattle. Its location and climate produce pristine conditions for cattle, and the farmers have uncanny expertise handed down for generations. New Zealand is unique among meat-producing regions in the world because its climate is moderate so the grass in the pastures grows fresh and grows green year-round which means the cows can eat the food that’s healthiest for them every day of the year. Our nose-to-tail product line is always from grassfed, inspected animals born and raised without the use of pesticides, hormones or antibiotics. Health of livestock used for manufacturing in New Zealand is closely monitored by a world leading biosecurity system that is second to none, and is a global exemplar. Strict government licensing, auditing and certification procedures mean that our genuine New Zealand freeze dried products can be used with complete confidence in their origin, safety and efficacy. Freeze-drying preserves the heat sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors of components leaving the nutrients in the same balance as found in nature. Our product line is 100% additive-free... Absolutely no stearates, lubricants, binders, fillers or flow agents BENEFITS OF CONSUMING THYROID WITH LIVER Traditional peoples, Native Americans and early ancestral healers knew that eating the organs from a healthy animal would strengthen and support the health of the corresponding organ of the individual. For instance, the traditional way of treating a person with a weak heart was to feed the person the heart of a healthy animal. Similarly, eating the kidneys of a healthy animal was believed to support urinary ailments and overall kidney health... Pancreas was fed to people with digestive problems... and spleen was fed to people with immune and blood deficiencies. The thyroid gland was no different.*[4] Organ meats and glands were a staple of our early ancestors' diets as the ultimate superfood, for good reason. It turns out, this nourishing tradition is backed by science... "Radioisotope labeling studies in animals have shown conclusively that, when eaten, organs and glands selectively travel to the corresponding organs and glands in high concentrations. This research, done at the University of Scotland in Edinburgh, lends credence to the ancient practice of eating animal organs to help ensure health in one’s corresponding organs..." - Dr. Ron Schmid, ND.*[5] Our early ancestors knew this, which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of nose-to-tail organ meats and glands. — Based on the ancient ancestral wisdom that "like supports like." Consuming thyroid may strengthen and support our own thyroid.* — — Thyroid glandular contains proteins, peptides, cofactors and enzymes to nourish, balance and support thyroid health.* — — Supports thyroid and liver health, energy levels and a healthy metabolism.* — THYROID WITH LIVER PROVIDES... Whole Thyroid Glandular (and all of its nourishing constituents) Preformed Vitamin A, B12, Choline & Folate Proteins, Peptides, Cofactors & Enzymes Found And Expressed In Thyroid & Liver Tissue Bio-available Heme Iron FACT: Vitamin D deficiency and Vitamin A deficiency can stop T3 from activating your cell to increase your metabolic rate and increase your energy [6] (see Thyroid Nutrition below). THYROID WITH LIVER SUPPORTS... Thyroid, Energy, Mood & Metabolism Health * Liver Health, Detoxification & Methylation * Immune Health * Connective Tissue Health * FACT: Even small amounts of fluoride lessen the pituitary gland’s ability to function, which in turn slows thyroid production. Larger amounts of fluoride, which most people do consume from tap water, disrupt the whole endocrine system and wreak havoc on hormone production. Fluoride consumption over time essentially slows the whole body down, including the brain.[7] DOSING (1 TO 8 CAPSULES A DAY) There are various dosing strategies to consider when taking all natural desiccated thyroid (NDT). Each capsule provides 30MG of desiccated thyroid (with 470MG of desiccated liver). A conservative dose is just one capsule a day; however, it is more common to take two capsules a day for the first two weeks, then increase by one capsule every two weeks in search of the optimal dose. As a reminder, Grassfed Beef Thyroid is a natural, whole food dietary supplement, unlike Armour, Naturethroid, Westhroid-P (WP) and NP Thyroid which are concentrated USP thyroid extracts derived from porcine. For an in depth dosing resource on USP thyroid extracts, click here. Weeks 1 & 2 - Two capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 3 & 4 - Three capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 5 & 6 - Four capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 7 & 8 - Five capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 9 & 10 - Six capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 11 & 12 - Seven capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * Weeks 13 & 14 - Eight capsules daily in the early morning (or) split dosage * * Early Morning: Take one capsule as soon as you wake in the morning on an empty stomach. Wait at least one hour before food and ideally two hours before coffee. If you haven't tried bulletproof coffee, now might be a good time. * Split Dosage: Take a main dosage in the early morning (e.g. four capsules), then take a smaller dosage in the afternoon (e.g. two capsules). This can help to achieve a more stable level of energy throughout the day without disrupting sleep.

You should not use this information to diagnose or treat a health problem or disease without consulting with a qualified healthcare professional. POTENTIAL ISSUES The primary issue that can occur with consuming natural desiccated thyroid is over-stimulation. This is an indication that a person has taken too much at a given time. Signs of over-stimulation include: increased heart rate (or) heart palpitations, feeling anxious, feeling shaky, feeling hotter than usual and sometimes fatigue. It is important to reduce the dosage following any issue, such as those related to over-stimulation. The effects of over-stimulation are temporary and should subside within a few hours; however, if over-stimulation persists beyond twenty-four hours, this should be addressed by a qualified healthcare professional. THYROID NUTRITION [ANCESTRAL NUTRITION] For most of human history, we effortlessly consumed nose-to-tail nutrition that supported our strength, health and happiness. In the modern world, we unknowingly struggle to fulfill our nutritional needs. It's easy to see why so many kids and adults alike are walking around like zombies. The nourishing wisdom that allowed our early ancestors to live a vibrant, disease-free life has been tucked away for convenient, cheap, hyperpalatable food-like products that support big industry as opposed to our health. These products might appeal to taste, but they leave us hungry and stuffed because our bodies are still starving for true whole-food nourishment. As a result, the most common nutrient deficiencies are also implicated with thyroid health. Vitamin A - Look to liver for real, preformed vitamin A (retinol). If you're not consuming liver (or) desiccated liver, you're probably deficient. Vitamin D - Get sensible sun exposure, eat wild fish eggs... or, consider a vitamin D3 supplement. Vitamin K - Eat your fermented foods like natto and veggies like kimchi and sauerkraut... or, consider a vitamin K complex supplement. B12 - Again, liver reigns supreme here providing 13.6 mcg (230% DV) of vitamin B12 per serving (6 capsules of our Grassfed Beef Liver). Choline - Liver's got you covered... pasture-raised egg yolks are also a rich source of choline. Iron - The recurring theme here is liver... and other red meats, oysters and sardines. Iodine - Sea vegetables. Consider organic kelp granules to add in bone broth soup, sprinkle over salad or as a seasoning to all dishes. Selenium - Simple, eat one organic brazil nut a day. Magnesium - It's really hard to get enough magnesium from diet. Look for a transdermal magnesium oil. Apply before bedtime. It's not hard to see why liver is considered a nutritional powerhouse and included in the Grassfed Beef Thyroid supplement — liver fills nutrition gaps more completely than any other food. A whole food, nutrient dense diet provides the nourishment we need in order to express the strongest and healthiest version of ourselves... Food forms the basis of our health. Our biology is truly remarkable as it relates to our ability to heal... we just need to create the right environment for healing to take place. Bruce Lipton's work regarding The Biology Of Belief demonstrates that we are indeed the architects of our experience. We can, and we do, create cell signals (perceptions) with our thoughts. So stay positive... think about the wonderful things in your life that you're grateful for... eat like our early ancestors did... move around like our ancestors did... slow down... go barefoot, connect to the earth... get sensible sun exposure... sleep like a rock... keep stress in check... and breathe. THYROID LABS Janie A. Bowthorpe developed a comprehensive website and book called "Stop the Thyroid Madness." Her work has been an invaluable resource for patients and doctors dealing with thyroid issues. The following information is a very abridged version from her website which can be accessed here. TSH - (with a low free T3) is more about hypopituitary, not the thyroid. Free T4, Free T3 and Reverse T3 (RT3) - “Free” in front of T3 and T4 is measuring what is available for use unlike the the “total.” Thyroid Antibodies - both anti-TPO and anti-thyroglobulin are needed, not just one. Iron Panel - all four iron labs are needed because ferritin can be low due to high heavy metals, not just low iron. Janie's website also recommends saliva cortisol testing, B12, magnesium, other minerals, plus D3 and sex hormones which can all play a role in thyroid health. Many health professionals don't know that these labs exist, much less know how to interpret the data. To understand these labs and what to do, I again refer you to "Stop The Thyroid Madness" webpage — all about lab values which can be found here and Chris Kresser's "Why Your “Normal” Thyroid Lab Results May Not Be Normal" here. Normal Ranges TSH: 0.27 – 4.20 μIU/mL Total T4: 4.5 – 11.7 μg/dL Free T4: 0.93 – 1.70 ng/dL Total T3: 80 – 200 ng/dL Free T3: 2.0 – 4.4 pg/mL Reverse T3: 8 – 24 ng/dL TPO antibodies: < 9 IU/mL Thyroglobulin antibodies: ≤ 1 IU/mL Functional Ranges TSH: 1.0 – 2.5 μIU/mL Total T4: 6.0 – 11.9 μg/dL Free T4: 1.0 – 1.5 ng/dL Total T3: 100 – 168 ng/dL Free T3: 3.0 – 4.0 pg/mL Reverse T3: 14.9 – 24.1 ng/dL TPO antibodies: 0 – 15 IU/mL Thyroglobulin antibodies: 0.0 – 0.9 IU/mL HIGH QUALITY ORGANS & GLANDS Okay, you're convinced! You're going to start incorporating organs and glands in your routine because, well... you're educated now... you understand, just as our early ancestors did, that they provide superlative health benefits that are missing in our modern diets. The next step is sourcing it. It's important that you source the highest quality because not all organs and glands are created equal. Consider the source, consider this: Should Come From An Unpolluted Geographical Region — Isolated, Healthy, Pristine Lands Should Come From Pasture Raised Cows Should Come From Grass-Fed & Grass-Finished Cows Should Come From Cows That Are Hormone, Pesticide & GMO Free Should Also Be Ultra Pure... Absolutely No Fillers (or) Flow Agents, No Allergens Should Be Non-Defatted Should Be 100% Freeze Dried... Freeze Drying Preserves Heat Sensitive Biological Activity If you're going to pick just one ancestral supplement to start with, make it our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER... unless you need targeted support with another specific organ system. If you are going to pick two supplements, our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER and our GRASS FED BEEF ORGANS provide complementary and synergistic benefits. On the other hand, if you're looking for targeted organ or glandular support, you may be interested in our GRASS FED BEEF HEART to support a strong heart (or) our GRASS FED THYROID for thyroid support... you get the picture. GRASSFED BEEF THYROID SUMMARY Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of nose-to-tail dining since the beginning of time. Grassfed Beef Thyroid is a whole food dietary supplement that provides natural desiccated thyroid (with liver). These whole foods naturally provide nutrients, proteins, peptides, enzymes and cofactors to nourish, balance and support thyroid health.* The addition of liver fills nutrition gaps more completely than any other food. The health and happiness effects of consuming beef thyroid and liver include supporting one's own thyroid and liver health along with all the downstream benefits that come with.* Not all organs and glandulars are the same. Look for a high quality beef thyroid that comes from pasture-raised, grass-fed cows that are hormone, pesticide and GMO free. When considering a dietary supplement, look for one that is ultra pure (without binders, fillers (or) flow agents) and look for the freeze dried variety as these have been shown to optimally preserve nutritional factors and co-factors. SAFETY OF OUR GRASS-FED, PASTURE-RAISED LIVER High quality liver from pasture-raised, grass-fed cows is completely safe to consume. There is a common misconception about the liver being a storage depot for toxins which couldn't be further from fact. One of the many roles of liver is to filter toxins and send them to be expelled — usually in the urine via the kidney. In other words, the liver does not hold on to toxins, it expels them. The liver does act as a storage depot for vitamins, minerals and glycogen. Rest assured, liver from healthy animals is safe, nutritious and time-tested. Need more assurance... Recall that liver is rich in choline, folate and B12. A diet rich in these nutrients supports methylation. Amongst other things, methylation is central to detoxification. What's more, is that without adequate choline (most Americans) fatty deposits may accumulate that contribute to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Downstream issues include compromised detoxification, high cholesterol and memory problems. The take home message is this... grass-fed, pasture-raised liver is not only safe to consume but one could say that its nutrients are required to support and optimize our own detoxification pathways. Enjoy! ACTIVATING AN ANCIENT PATHWAY [FOR HEALTH] Our early ancestors were regularly subjected to cold temperatures. It’s most likely why we humans have brown adipose tissue (BAT). BAT is especially abundant in newborns and in hibernating mammals.[9] It is also present and metabolically active in adult humans and its primary function is thermoregulation. In the modern world though, we are rarely subjected to cold temperatures for any real duration... Let's face it, who likes that uncomfortable frigid feeling that comes with cold, especially when we have access to warmth 24/7. In modern times, we simply put on some clothes… turn up the heater… or we avoid the cold altogether by staying inside. Our potential for strength and health remains encoded in our DNA, and under certain conditions, we can genetically express the strongest, healthiest version of ourselves. Those "certain conditions" almost always have to do with nose-to-tail nutrition. In this instance, it has to do with getting cold. — Improves blood circulation so the arteries work more efficiently at pumping blood, therefore boosting our overall heart health * — — Promotes “hardening,” which results in increased tolerance to stress and disease * — — Upgrades the immune system by increasing glutathione (our master antioxidant) and decreasing inflammatory markers * — Intentional cold exposures initiate adaptive processes and response mechanisms that are hardwired into our genes. We have 60,000 miles of blood vessels within us that are lined with smooth muscles that constrict (or) dilate based on our perception of temperature. This process of vasoconstriction and vasodilation is like exercise for your blood vessels.Cold exposure benefits include boosting heart health through improved circulation and increased tolerance to stress, upgraded immunity, and enhanced metabolic flexibility. Rhonda Patrick, PHD writes “cold exposures increase cold shock proteins including one in the brain that repairs damaged synapses and in muscle prevents atrophy, how a cold-induced catecholamine lowers inflammation and pain by decreasing the levels of 3 inflammatory mediators…” [10] This is very, very interesting stuff and it's grounded in evolutionary science.Give it a try. Start with cold / hot shower contrasts for 30 seconds at a time. At first, you'll down right hate me for it because it is down right uncomfortable. Continue the shower contrasts over a 30 day period. Take notice how you feel afterwards... it will keep you coming back for more. It gets easier and easier because the adaptive mechanisms, including the smooth muscles that line the blood vessels, adapt... they get stronger, faster and more efficient at doing what they were designed to do. You will notice that your ability to withstand cold will increase considerably after only a few days. Like any other stressor, we adapt… it gets easier… and it starts to feel amazing.You never know, cold exposures could easily be the missing link to the strength, energy and other health benefits that we are all after. Send me an email... let me know your thoughts... let me know your questions. I'd love to hear from you. Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out. [ Stay positive... think about the wonderful things in your life that you're grateful for... eat like our early ancestors did... move around like our ancestors did... avoid danger like our ancestors did (think lions, trans fats, sugars, fluoride, excessive wifi, emfs, vaccines, mercury, etc)... slow down... go barefoot, connect to the earth... get sensible sun exposure... get cold (environmental conditioning)... mind your magnesium... sleep like a rock... keep stress in check... and breathe like Wim Hof. ] KETOSIS, THE THYROID AND FERTILITY Perhaps we could learn something from the most ketogenic culture of all time when it comes to thyroid health and its influence on one of the most important markers of health status… fertility!! Weston Price described how a far North Native Indian culture consumed thyroid to ensure the health and survival of their offspring. Here’s an excerpt from Nutrition and Physical Degeneration… “For the Indians of the far North [reinforcement of fertility] was accomplished by supplying special feedings of organs of animals. Among the Indians in the moose country near the Arctic Circle a larger percentage of the children were born in June than in any other month. This was accomplished, I was told, by both parents eating liberally of the thyroid glands of the male moose as they came down from the high mountain areas for the mating season, at which time the large protuberances carrying the thyroids under the throat were greatly enlarged.” It could well have been that consumption of moose thyroid was an important means of maintaining fertility in the face of the level of carbohydrate restriction that the Arctic environment forced on its inhabitants. I personally love ketosis… I especially go deeper into ketosis during the Winter months in an effort to model ancestral living. That said, I also like to consume grass fed thyroid during this time… I, as well as others that I know that do the same, feel and function and perform much better with a little thyroid on board. We’ve all done plenty of testing with FREE T3 to support this ancient ancestral practice. KETOSIS AND HYPOTHYROID DYSFUNCTION I keep getting questions about the ketogenic diet and thyroid dysfunction. Can the two coexist? Is it good... is it bad... everyone has an opinion, and everyone wants an answer. Here's your answer... Functional ranges of FREE T3 are 3.0 – 4.0 pg/mL. If you’re below 3.0 pg/mL, you might be hypothyroid. Would ketosis hurt ya or help ya… Completely depends on why you’re hypothyroid… for instance, if you’re hypothyroid because of stress / cortisol dysfunction, then chances are your reverse T3 (rT3) has been upregulated thus displacing free T3 (at the cellular level) in an effort to slow you down and get you recovered. Same thing happens when you get sick, or get the flu but with chronic stress, it’s never ending which is why hypothyroid is common here. Going low carb / keto could be disastrous because keto is yet another low-grade chronic stress.... Not sleeping well is a low grade stress... Not eating well is a low grade stress... Food sensitives (especially gluten, msgs, artificial food-like products) are a low grade stress... Moving too much (or) not moving enough is a low grade stress... Danger / poison is a stress (think lions, trans fats, sugars, fluoride, excessive wifi, emfs, vaccines, mercury, non-native water, plastics, non-native clothing, non-native bedding, non-native eating and drinking containers, flame retardants, etc)... you get the picture. On the other hand, if you’re vitamin A and/or D deficient (like most people), this can prevent T3 from activating your cell. Or, if you have a selenium or iodine deficiency, conversion of T4 to T3 (active thyroid hormone) issues can arise. In these cases, going keto is probably not going to hurt but it’s obviously more important to fill the nutrition gaps to support one’s thyroid. Here’s the question… Why are your reverse T3 numbers high? Do you know your FREE T3 numbers? Cortisol is important too but you’d need a 24 hour saliva test to know what’s going on here. In summary, keto is not categorically bad for people with hypothyroid issues… but it could be… it just depends. Sources and References Fishman, Stanley A. "The Benefits of Organ Meats."

Spring Dragon Longevity Tea The Healthiest Tea on Earth The Multifunctional “Magical Grass” In Asia, Gynostemma is known as a “magical grass.” It has been reported to have a wide range of health-promoting benefits. In Asia, Gynostemma is considered to be:* Invigorating (does not cause hyperactivity – not a stimulant) Calming (promotes a sense of peace – not a sedative) Anti-aging (antioxidant and more) Anti-inflammatory (not as a medicine, but to help reduce the factors that cause low grade, sub-clinical chronic inflammation experienced by all humans) Immune-regulating (not as a medicine, but to help support the normal healthy functioning of various immune functions) A respiratory tonic (improves respiratory efficiency) A digestive aid (Gynostemma is very soothing) Gynostemma has been shown in animal studies to have liver and cardiovascular-protecting benefits and to support normal healthy functioning in these organs.* Adaptogenic Benefits The ultimate greatness of Gynostemma lies in its broad-spectrum adaptogenic (stress-modulating) quality.* Adaptogenic herbs improve the efficiency of the metabolic, neurological, immunologic, respiratory, and endocrine systems. Prolonged consumption of Gynostemma tends to have a highly protective quality because it strengthens the adaptive capacity of the person at every level of their life.* Double-Direction Activity Gynostemma has the ability to bring balance to the body under a wide range of stressful circumstances. Japanese studies have indicated that Gynostemma has a double-direction, regulating, adaptogenic influence on the central nervous system. It is calming when one is overexcited and invigorating when one is fatigued. Gynostemma is widely known for its “spirit-lifting” effect on one’s mood. Gynostemma may have a direct strengthening effect on the heart.* Weight Management Support Gynostemma has developed an enormous reputation in Asia as a major aid in weight management programs: Gynostemma can be useful in reducing excessive body fat, when combined with a reasonable exercise program and a healthy diet. It may also help athletes, bodybuilders, or excessively slim people to gain weight. Gynostemma accelerates the body’s metabolism and helps adjust blood sugar and blood fat levels. Although not a laxative, it may help maintain healthy bowel movements. Acts as a scavenger in the digestive system, ridding the body of toxins and toxic microbes. Protects the stomach lining.* Antioxidant & Anti-inflammatory Activity Gynostemma is a potent antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative injury, which can result in chronic inflammation.* Main Active Ingredients: Saponins The saponins in Gynostemma are called gypenosides. There are over 100 gypenosides in Gynostemma. These are responsible for the hepato-protective and adaptogenic qualities of this tonic herb.* The Story of Spring Dragon Longevity Tea In 1972, Japanese researchers reported that Gynostemma tea was being consumed daily as a “longevity tea” by many southern Chinese people. Revered as “magical grass,” it earned its name through its reputed health benefits. Studies revealed that Gynostemma was extremely rich in saponins — even more so than ginseng. As interest grew, cultivation spread, and it became a widely consumed tonic tea. In 1992, Ron Teeguarden, through a serendipitous meeting with Professor Xiao Peigun — one of China’s leading herbal medicine experts — was introduced to the highest-quality Gynostemma. Inspired by traditional methods of supersaturating herbs into tea leaves, Ron created Spring Dragon Longevity Tea with the help of a tea master. In Addition to Gynostemma, This Tea Includes: SchizandraThe “quintessence of Chinese herbs,” used to tonify all systems, cleanse the liver, open the lungs, and nourish the skin. A potent antioxidant.* Goji BerriesA superfood rich in antioxidants, known for enhancing strength, vision, and beauty. Contains immune-potentiating polysaccharides. AstragalusHighly regarded for its immune-regulating effects, energy tonification, and blood support. Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng)Enhances physical and mental endurance, mood, and stress resilience. Rich in saponins. Luo Han GuoAn exotic fruit used for centuries as a lung tonic. Contains mogroside, an immune-potentiating glucoside. Traditional Function Adaptogenic, anti-aging, immune-regulating, anti-inflammatory, blood sugar-regulating, fat-reducing, tonifying to the Lungs, Heart, Spleen/Pancreas, Liver, and Kidney, and detoxifying.

Phytoplankton: the food that powers the oceans, and life as we know it! A true superfood, Oceans Alive® Raw Marine Phytoplankton supports general health. Comprised of two super-strains: Nannochloropsis gaditana & Tetraselmis, and a powerful sea mineral solution with an array of different minerals and nutrients, Oceans Alive's nutrient density is immense. Benefits Phytoplankton is bursting with nano-sized nutrient particles that are easily absorbed by the body and readily available for use at the cellular level. Its benefits include: Anti-Depressant/Stress - A pilot study conducted at the University of Utah shows significant improvements in subjects’ depression symptoms after regularly taking phytoplankton. Specifically, participants reported feeling full of life, feeling lots of energy, and feeling calm and peaceful. Cancer Research - In a U.S. Food and Drug Administration publication titled “Drugs of the Deep: Treasures of the Sea Yield Some Medical Answers and Hint at Others,” author John Henkel discusses some promising cancer research involving plankton. Detoxifying - Marine phytoplankton can have the same oxygenating and detoxifying effects on the body as it does on the ocean. Our blood is mostly water, but what’s pretty cool is that fact that plasma (the watery portion of blood) contains levels of salt and other ions that’s incredibly similar to sea water. Antioxidants - It’s said that phytoplankton is the best bio-available source of superoxide dismutase (SOD). SOD is the body’s most powerful antioxidant enzyme that plays a critical role in reducing oxidative damage and inflammation, and it’s been shown to be an effective heavy metal detox agent. Liver Support - Phytoplankton can be absorbed on a cellular level, so the body doesn’t have to rely on the digestive system or liver for processing. This not only helps the body obtain necessary nutrients when liver function is impaired, but can help restore liver health without taxing the body’s detoxification pathways. Immune Support - People taking marine phytoplankton have shown higher levels of CD3 in their blood. The amount of CD3 in the bloodstream is indicative of the presence of T cells or T-lymphocytes, which are essential for human immunity. T cells help eliminate viruses and bacteria from the body so if phytoplankton increases T cell levels, then there is a direct positive effect on the immune system. Cellular Regeneration - Phytoplankton can strengthen cell membranes and trigger your body to regenerate current cells and create healthy new cells. A team of European botanists, doctors and microbiologists discovered an incredible strain of marine phytoplankton that’s said to hold the greatest nutritional value for human consumption. The strain is called Nannochloropsis gaditana. Nannochloropsis gaditana contains more than 65 compounds, including all the amino acids, all the essential fats, vitamins, key minerals, trace elements, rare antioxidants, phospholipids, electrolytes, nucleic acids, enzymes and coenzymes. It is able to multiply explosively, which is why it’s believed it can help humans restore their health so quickly at a cellular level. Heart Helper - Phytoplankton are rich in amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids (specifically EPA and DHA). EPA and DHA have a number of potential heart benefits, including easing inflammation, ensuring a steady heartbeat, preventing the formation of dangerous or even deadly blood clots, and lowering triglyceride levels. Additional Information A premium blend of two specially cultivated, hand-selected marine phytoplankton strains, Oceans Alive® supports general health. Grown in a photobioreactor, our marine phytoplankton is completely pure and free of contaminants. The nutrient density of this microalgae provides you with a wide array of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and amino acids. Oceans Alive® Raw Marine Phytoplankton is impressively loaded with life-promoting nutrients, including: Omega-3 essential fatty acids (both EPA and DHA) Protein Amino acids Vitamins Minerals Antioxidants Carotenoids Phytonutrients Phytochemicals Trace minerals Chlorophyll Specific strains of marine phytoplankton This is not a random selection. Oceans Alive is comprised of two unique strains of marine phytoplankton that have been specifically identified as being ideal for human health. The first is called Nannochloropsis Gaditana. It matches the human nutritional profile, delivering exactly the nutrients you need to create healthy new cells and neurochemicals. The second strain is called the Gala strain (Tetraselmis). It was chosen for its high SOD (superoxide dismutase) content. SOD is a powerful antioxidant that combats oxidative stress and may contribute to increased longevity. Rich source of EPA & DHA Marine phytoplankton is a rich source of both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA are both essential omega–3 fatty acids derived from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). They are “essential” because the body doesn’t produce them on its own, so we need to get them from the foods we eat, such as a marine phytoplankton supplement. Marine phytoplankton has more omega–3 by weight than fish or krill oil. Oceans Alive - the safe and effective choice The biggest risk with phytoplankton supplements is toxin presence. When it’s toxic, like in the case of phytoplankton blooms, it can cause massive fish die-offs and also contaminate seafood with toxins. It’s highly important to get supplements from a reputable company that follows stringent guidelines to avoid a supplement containing a toxin-producing species of plankton or a plankton that has been harvested from toxin-tainted waters. Produced in a photobioreactor Oceans Alive is a unique product for a number of reasons. For one, the marine phytoplankton that we use is grown in a photobioreactor. This means that the phytoplankton is grown in a sort of ‘mini-ocean’ that’s protected from pollutants and toxins. It’s a series of large glass tubes that allow purified ocean water containing carefully selected phytoplankton to flow through them, exposing the phytoplankton to natural sunlight for photosynthesis. Using a photobioreactor allows for natural growth without contamination. Suggested Use 12 drops, once daily under the tongue or mixed with water or juice. Shelf-Life/Storage Instructions Oceans Alive® must be capped and stored at regular room temperature in a dry place out of direct sunlight. When stored properly, Oceans Alive will remain fresh for 36 months. No need to refrigerate

About: Developed by William Davis, MD. Author of "Wheat Belly" and "Super Gut". Lactobacillus reuteri supports GI health, bowel function and immune function* Can be used to make William Davis, MD. Superfood L. reuteri yogurt/cultured dairy. MyReuteri 10 billion standard dosage is suitable as a daily probiotic or for use to make cultured dairy. MyReuteri 20 billion is ideal for those seeking a higher-potency dosage, and can also be used to make cultured dairy. 50 B – Intensive, short-term support for extra strain (travel, events, challenges) MyReuteri Formulation Based on the science of the Gut-Skin Axis, doctor-developed MyReuteri is formulated with LRDR L. Reuteri and FOS. Lactobacillus reuteri LRDR™ Our proprietary LRDR™ strain of Lactobacillus reuteri provides an important microbe that the great majority are missing in their gut. This microbe not only resides in the colon but also the upper GI tract. Daily incorporation of L. reuteri LRDR™ helps you support gut health and gut balance.* FOS (Fructooligosaccharides) MyReuteri includes the prebiotic fiber FOS which serves as food for the Lactobacillus reuteri microbes. The FOS in MyReuteri supports L. Reuteri cultured daily fermentation (aka “L. reuteri yogurt”) for home yogurt-making. Use to make yogurt-like cultured-dairy superfoodOne capsule can be fermented (36 h at ~100 °F with inulin) into a tangy cultured dairy rich in live cultures—following Dr. Davis’s signature “Superfood” process and recipe. Our lab tests show extended fermentation yields very high probiotic counts. Not recommended for pregnant or nursing individuals.

MyReuteri FAQs by Oxiceutics Product Information What is in MyReuteri? MyReuteri contains high counts of the important gastrointestinal microbe, Lactobacillus reuteri, that Dr. Davis has been talking about, making yogurt with, and studying in humans and animals. Because L. reuteri, as well as many other bacterial species, is susceptible to common antibiotics, many have lost this microbe and thereby all of its potential benefits. MyReuteri is Oxicuetics way of restoring this important microbe. Does MyReuteri have to be refrigerated? While it does not hurt to refrigerate MyReuteri, there is no need to. It is helpful, however, to store in a relatively cool area out of direct sunlight and, of course, with the cap on, as want the microbes to avoid exposure to moisture. My product arrived hot. Is the probiotic still good? The probiotic strains in MyReuteri can start to die off around 110°F (43°C). MyReuteri is stored at room temperature. So even if you received the product warm, it is still good. Should I take MyReuteri with food or without food? And any specific time of day? MyReuteri can be taken with food or without, as it does not impact significantly on the number of surviving microbes. The only precaution to take is to not consume theprobiotic capsules of MyReuteri while sipping or eating a food that is very hot, e.g.,coffee, tea, hot soups, as the heat can kill the microbes and may reduce potentialbenefits. Also, the only issue with time of day is that some people feel a little sleepy if taken early in the day. If this happens to you, simply shift the time you take MyReuteri to evening or bedtime. Why are there such high numbers of microbes in MyReuteri? Oxiceutics' experience has been that, in general, greater numbers of microbes with probiotic properties provide greater effects than smaller numbers. After all, the human gastrointestinal microbiome numbers around 100 trillion. It may reasonably therefore require tens to hundreds of billions to generate meaningful effects. Because of the effort and expense of generating such “dose-response” observations, the understanding of this phenomenon in the microbiome science world is limited. Until we gain a better understanding, we include counts of microbes that we believe yield significant benefits. Why do we need to add inulin in making MyReuteri yogurt? Inulin, a prebiotic fibre in common foods, supports Lactobacillus reuteri in lactose digestion. If you have a reaction to inulin yogurt, consult your doctor. Can I take MyReuteri in combination with other nutritional supplements? Yes, but with some exceptions. Because MyReuteri is a living microbe, we avoid taking it with anything that has antibiotic effects. This includes any supplement containing iodine, any supplement you may be taking to manage intestinal dysbiosis, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or fungal overgrowth. This includes supplements such as berberine, curcumin (turmeric), and essential oils taken orally. Other supplements such as vitamin D, fish oil, magnesium and many others are perfectly compatible. Is it safe to take MyReuteri with other probiotics? Yes, it is perfectly safe to combine MyReuteri with other probiotics including with Gut to Glow. I am experiencing some nausea and stomach upset with MyReuteri. What does this mean and should I stop taking it? This is a common experience with any probiotic and is due to antagonistic effects that L.reuteri and other probiotic species introduce against unhealthy microbes in thegastrointestinal tract. One way to deal with this is to reduce the dose, e.g., reduce from two capsules per day to one capsule per day or even one capsule every-other-day. You can also take your dose with food to disperse the bacteria. Should you continue to experience difficulty, consult your doctor but ask specifically about the possibility that you have small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, SIBO, i.e., unhealthy bacterial species that have colonised your stomach and small intestine. When a beneficial microbe such as L. reuteri is introduced, unhealthy bacterial species begin to die and this can yield some unpleasant effects. Your doctor may have additional steps you can take that can help you better tolerate MyReuteri, as well as other probiotics and fermented foods, once this phenomenon is addressed. Should I anticipate side-effects from taking MyReuteri? Beyond the nausea, bloating, and diarrhea that can occur when initiating any probiotic, we know of no side effects of supplementing MyReuteri. You may have heard Dr. Davis say that nearly all hunter-gatherer humans and mammals have this microbe–it’s most modern humans that have lost this microbe and thereby its potential benefits. Restoring factors that should have been part of the human experience all along is therefore typically not associated with adverse effects. Why have modern people lost L. reuteri, the microbial species contained in MyReuteri? Modern people have been overexposed to antibiotics such as amoxicillin, cefazolin, and gentamicin. L. reuteri, the microbial species contained in MyReuteri, is very susceptible to common antibiotics and has therefore been eradicated from the gastrointestinal microbiomes of most people. There may be other factors that contribute to its disappearance such as herbicide and pesticide residues in food, food additives with antimicrobial properties such as food preservatives and emulsifying (mixing) agents, and various pharmaceuticals. Even German microbiologist, Dr. Gerhard Reuter, who initially discovered this microbe in the breastmilk of a breastfeeding mother in 1962 made the observation over his subsequent 40-year academic career, that it became harder and harder to recover this organism from breastmilk, stool, and other body locations over this time period. More recent analyses have corroborated Dr. Reuter’s observation: L. reuteri has been lost by many people. Why do you recommend that we not take MyReuteri during pregnancy? MyReuteri provides the microbe, L. reuteri, at relatively high counts, as does Gut toGlow. While all mammals, including humans, are meant to have this beneficial microbe as part of their gastrointestinal microbiome, we do not know if the high counts provided by these products (or as the yogurt that you ferment from these products) is safe in the setting of pregnancy. Recall that women can be given oxytocin intravenously to provoke uterine contraction at term pregnancy, causing the baby to be delivered. (L. reuteri has been shown in animal studies to increase oxytocin.) We therefore do not know if it is safe to consume higher intakes of L. reuteri in pregnant females. Can I make “yogurt” with MyReuteri? Yes, absolutely. You can use the microbes in MyReuteri as a starter for yogurt making. Of course, it is not really yogurt in the conventional sense, but a fermented dairy product that looks and smells like yogurt. In our analyses of the yogurts made from MyReuteri, we obtain approximately 300 billion CFUs (microbial counts) per ½-cup serving. Yogurt made from MyReuteri will be more sour than conventional yogurt because the extended fermentation method we use to achieve high bacterial counts also converts nearly all the lactose to lactic acid, accounting for the acidic or sour flavour. Feel free to add blueberries, strawberries, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, and healthy non-caloric sweeteners such as monk fruit, allulose, or stevia to soften the sourness. Why does the powder in the MyReuteri capsule sometimes appear clumpy and is it still okay? In some instances, excessive humidity can cause the powder inside the capsule to clump together, however, formulation remains viable and effective. If using to make yogurt, use a spoon to gently break up the powder before mixing. Be sure to keep the bottle tightly closed and keep the desiccant moisture-absorbing pack in the bottle, and store in a cool dry place or refrigerator. Why choose MyReuteri 10 billion standard dosage? MyReuteri 10 billion standard dosage is suitable as a daily probiotic or for use to make cultured dairy. Why do some people prefer MyReuteri 20 billion double-strength? MyReuteri 20 billion is ideal for those seeking a higher-potency dosage, and can also be used to make cultured dairy. How does MyReuteri 10 billion compare to other L. reuteri products? Only MyReuteri is the authentic L. Reuteri by Dr. Davis and designed for use as both an oral probiotic and for use as a starter culture. Because it is made in the USA, MyReuteri avoids the temperature variations and carbon foodprint of ocean shipping. Is MyReuteri 20 billion a good value at $60? MyReuteri 20 billion provides 50% additional LRDR L. reuteri for only 25% more cost, an excellent value on a per CFU basis. Why does MyReuteri include magnesium stearate? Safe and widely used in supplements, medicines and foods, a small amount of magnesium stearate is included to facilitate consistency in the production process.

— To a very large extent, the health of the thymus determines the health of the immune system. Individuals who get frequent infections or suffer from chronic infections typically have impaired thymus activity. Also, people affected with hay fever, allergies, migraine headaches, or rheumatoid arthritis usually have altered thymus function. *[1] — NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH GRASS FED THYMUS EXTRACT* For most of human history, we effortlessly consumed (nose-to-tail) the things we needed for strength, health and happiness. Like the fertile ground that we once walked upon, we were a natural extension of this earth. In the modern world, we unknowingly struggle to fulfill our nutritional needs in order to support and sustain a vibrant, disease-free life. We are now part of a world where immune system maladies (inclusive of allergies, food sensitivities and autoimmune conditions) run amuck. [ To a very large extent, the health of the thymus determines the health of the immune system. Individuals who get frequent infections or suffer from chronic infections typically have impaired thymus activity. Also, people affected with hay fever, allergies, migraine headaches, or rheumatoid arthritis usually have altered thymus function. The thymus is responsible for many immune system functions, including the production of T lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell responsible for cell-mediated immunity (immune mechanisms not controlled or mediated by antibodies). Cell-mediated immunity is extremely important in the resistance to infection by mold-like bacteria, yeast (including Candida albicans), fungi, parasites, and viruses (including herpes simplex, Epstein-Barr, and viruses that cause hepatitis). If an individual is suffering from an infection from these organisms, it is a good indication that his or her cell-mediated immunity is not functioning up to par. Cell-mediated immunity is also critical in protecting against the development of autoimmune conditions and allergies. ]*[1] Whole food, nutrient dense organs and glands can provide great benefit for those seeking targeted support in harmony with nature — the old fashioned way, the way that our early ancestors did. Grass Fed Thymus is a whole food dietary supplement that provides 100% pure ovine thymus (with bovine liver). This whole food provides proteins exclusively expressed in thymus tissue as well as various peptides and hormones such as thymosin, thymopoietin, and serum thymic factor, that regulate many immune functions.*[2] Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out. Pasture Raised In New Zealand Grass-fed & Grass-Finished Hormone, Pesticide & GMO Free Absolutely No Fillers (or) Flow Agents 100% Freeze Dried & Non-Defatted Third Party Tested For Purity Allergen Free New Zealand — Our product is 100% sourced in New Zealand.

This means that you get more of the heat sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors that make organ meats so incredibly nourishing — CONSIDER THE SOURCE New Zealand seems like it was made for raising healthy animals. Its location and climate produce pristine conditions for cattle and sheep, and the farmers have uncanny expertise handed down for generations. New Zealand is unique among meat-producing regions in the world because its climate is moderate so the grass in the pastures grows fresh and grows green year-round which means the cows and sheep can eat the food that’s healthiest for them every day of the year. Our nose-to-tail product line is always from grassfed, inspected animals born and raised without the use of pesticides, hormones or antibiotics. Health of livestock used for manufacturing in New Zealand is closely monitored by a world-leading biosecurity system that is second to none, and is a global exemplar. Strict government licensing, auditing and certification procedures mean that our genuine New Zealand freeze-dried products can be used with complete confidence in their origin, safety and efficacy. Freeze-drying preserves the heat-sensitive vitamins, minerals and co-factors of components leaving the nutrients in the same balance as found in nature. * Our product line is 100% additive-free.

This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. BENEFITS OF EATING THYMUS WITH LIVER Traditional peoples, Native Americans and early ancestral healers believed that eating the organs from a healthy animal would strengthen and support the health of the corresponding organ of the individual. For instance, the traditional way of treating a person with a weak heart was to feed the person the heart of a healthy animal. Similarly, eating the kidneys of a healthy animal was believed to support urinary ailments and overall kidney health... Pancreas was fed to people with digestive and endocrine problems... and thymus was fed to people with immune dysfunctions.*[4] Organ meats were a staple of our early ancestors' diets as the ultimate superfood, for good reason. It turns out, this nourishing tradition is backed by science... "Radioisotope labeling studies in animals have shown conclusively that, when eaten, organs and glands selectively travel to the corresponding organs and glands in high concentrations. This research, done at the University of Scotland in Edinburgh, lends credence to the ancient practice of eating animal organs to help ensure health in one’s corresponding organs..." - Dr. Ron Schmid, ND.*[5] Our early ancestors knew this, which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of nose-to-tail organ meats. — Based on the ancient ancestral wisdom that "like supports like." Consuming thymus may strengthen and support our own thymus * — — Thymic extracts have been shown to normalize and modulate the ratio of T-helper cells to suppressor cells whether the ratio is low as in AIDS, chronic infections and cancer, or high as found with allergies and autoimmune diseases like psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis. In other words, thymic factors appear to balance the immune response up (or) down as needed *[1] — — Unique peptides such as thymosin, thymopoietin and serum thymic factor to regulate, strengthen and support immune health *[1] — THYMUS WITH LIVER CONTAINS... Proteins Exclusively Found And Expressed In Thymus Tissue * Unique Peptides Such As Thymosin — Tasked With The Development Of Disease-Fighting T Cells *[1] Thymopoietin And Serum Thymic Factor To Further Regulate & Support Immune Health *[1] Immunologically Active Proteins Shown To Stimulate Macrophages & Enhance Natural Killer (NK) Cell Activity *[1] [ NOTE: The thymus gland shows maximum development immediately after birth. During the aging process, the thymus gland undergoes a process of shrinkage, or involution. The reason for this involution is that the thymus gland is extremely susceptible to free radical and oxidative damage caused by stress, radiation, infection, and chronic illness. The most effective and direct way to stimulate it (and reverse shrinkage) is by consuming undenatured thymus tissue with liver which is rich in vitamin A, folate, B12, zinc and heme iron. ] *[1,6] THYMUS WITH LIVER SUPPORTS... Optimal Thymus Health Based On "Like Supports Like" * Immune System Health *[1] Allergy Health, Inflammatory Health & Energy Metabolism *[1] [ NOTE: Vitamin A (from liver) has also been shown to stimulate and/or enhance numerous immune processes. Vitamin A deficiency may predispose an individual to an infection, and during the course of an infection vitamin A stores typically plummet. Vitamin A may be helpful in boosting immune function beyond reversal of vitamin A deficiency, because many immune functions are further enhanced by the administration of (supposedly) excessive levels of vitamin A. In addition, vitamin A prevents and reverses stress-induced thymus gland shrinkage (involution), and additional vitamin A can actually promote thymus growth. ] *[1] SUGGESTED USE (6 CAPSULES A DAY) Six capsules provide the equivalent of one ounce of fresh, raw whole glandulars and organs that you’d get from your local farmer (or) butcher. Our Grass Fed Thymus (with liver) is a whole food dietary supplement that can be taken with (or) without food (even though it technically is food). The suggested use is 6 capsules a day or as directed by a healthcare professional — for added support, the dose can be doubled. This supplement can be consumed all at once, or divided servings throughout the day. POTENTIAL ISSUES (DETOX REACTION) Most customers tolerate our supplements without incident; however, approximately 5 to 10% of customers (usually with an autoimmune condition) may experience a detoxification reaction. Detoxification reactions go by many different names including healing reactions, healing crises, cleansing reactions (or) Herxheimer reactions with hallmark symptoms of nausea, headache, lethargy, dizziness and other flu like symptoms. In this instance, detoxification reactions are generally an indication that detoxification pathways in the body are back online... cells suddenly have an opportunity to release an even greater than normal quantity of stored toxins, metabolic wastes, pathogens and unwanted material. A detoxification reaction is more likely to occur when starting with the full suggested serving size of 6 capsules per day. If you know that you are sensitive to supplements and/or you have an autoimmune condition, you may wish to start slow when adding this product to your current regimen. Tolerability can be greatly improved by starting with just 1 (or) 2 capsules a day and increasing by just 1 capsule every couple of days — this method may take a full two weeks to achieve the desired serving size of 6 capsules per day. HIGH QUALITY ORGANS & GLANDS Okay, you're convinced! You're going to start incorporating organ meats in your routine because, well... you're educated now... you understand, just as our early ancestors did, that they provide superlative health benefits that are missing in our modern diets. The next step is sourcing it. It's important that you source the highest quality because not all organs and glands are created equal. Consider the source. Should Come From An Unpolluted Geographical Region — Isolated, Healthy, Pristine Lands Should Come From Pasture Raised Animals Should Come From Grass-Fed & Grass-Finished Animals Should Come From Animals That Are Hormone, Pesticide & GMO Free Should Also Be Ultra Pure... Absolutely No Fillers (or) Flow Agents, No Allergens Should Be Non-Defatted Should Be 100% Freeze Dried... Freeze Drying Preserves Heat Sensitive Biological Activity SUGGESTED SUPPLEMENTS (3) If you're going to pick just one ancestral supplement to start with, make it our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER... unless you need targeted support with another specific organ system (see below). If you are going to pick two supplements, our GRASS FED BEEF LIVER and our GRASS FED BEEF ORGANS provide complementary and synergistic nourishment. If you can add a third supplement, GRASS FED BONE MARROW fills fat soluble nutrition gaps and provides the fat soluble activators that nutrition giant Dr. Weston Price extensively wrote about. Grass Fed Beef Liver Grass Fed Beef Organs (liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, spleen) Grass Fed Bone Marrow On the other hand, if you're looking for targeted organ support, you may be interested in our GRASS FED BEEF HEART to support heart health (or) our GRASS FED THYROID to support a struggling thyroid (or) our GRASS FED THYMUS to support thymus function and immune health... you get the picture.* We have a nose-to-tail product line that can be found on our "Products" page. If you can't find what you're looking for (or) you're not sure what you're looking for, send us an email and we'll do everything we can to help. GRASSFED THYMUS SUMMARY Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of nose-to-tail dining since the beginning of time. Grassfed Thymus contains proteins exclusively expressed in thymus tissue as well as various peptides and hormones such as thymosin, thymopoietin, and serum thymic factor, that regulate many immune functions.* Based on the concept of "like supports like," consuming thymus may strengthen and support our own thymus.* Thymus extracts have been shown to normalize, modulate and balance the ratio of T-helper cells to suppressor cells.* Not all organs and glands are the same. Look for the highest quality thymus glandular... It should come from pasture-raised, grass-fed sheep (or) calves that are hormone, pesticide and GMO free. If considering a supplement, look for one that is ultra pure (without binders, fillers (or) flow agents) and look for the freeze dried variety as these have been shown to optimally preserve nutritional factors, growth factors and co-factors. NOTE: Desiccated thymus (or) whole thymus glandular can be found on the market by various names: whole thymus, thymus extract, desiccated thymus, thymus glandular, thymus PMG and ovine thymus (sheep). ACTIVATING AN ANCIENT PATHWAY [GETTING COLD PLUS SOME SLEEP STUFF] Our early ancestors were regularly subjected to cold temperatures. It’s most likely why we humans have brown adipose tissue (BAT). BAT is especially abundant in newborns and in hibernating mammals. It is also present and metabolically active in adult humans and its primary function is thermoregulation.[8] In the modern world though, we are rarely subjected to cold temperatures for any real duration... Let's face it, who likes that uncomfortable frigid feeling that comes with cold, especially when we have access to warmth 24/7. In modern times, we simply put on some clothes… turn up the heater… or we avoid the cold altogether by staying inside. Our potential for strength and health remains encoded in our DNA, and under certain conditions, we can genetically express the strongest, healthiest version of ourselves. Those "certain conditions" almost always have to do with nose-to-tail nutrition. In this instance, it has to do with getting cold. — Improves blood circulation so the arteries work more efficiently at pumping blood, therefore boosting our overall heart health * — Promotes “hardening,” which results in increased tolerance to stress and disease * — — Upgrades the immune system by increasing glutathione (our master antioxidant) and decreasing inflammatory markers * — Intentional cold exposures initiate adaptive processes and response mechanisms that are hardwired into our genes. We have 60,000 miles of blood vessels within us that are lined with smooth muscles that constrict (or) dilate based on our perception of temperature. This process of vasoconstriction and vasodilation is like exercise for your blood vessels.Cold exposure benefits include boosting heart health through improved circulation and increased tolerance to stress, upgraded immunity, and enhanced metabolic flexibility. Rhonda Patrick, PHD writes “cold exposures increase cold shock proteins including one in the brain that repairs damaged synapses and in muscle prevents atrophy, how cold-induced nor-epi-nephrine lowers inflammation and pain by decreasing the levels of 3 inflammatory mediators…”*[9] This is very, very interesting stuff and it's grounded in evolutionary science.Give it a try. Start with cold / hot shower contrasts for 30 seconds at a time. At first, you'll down right hate me for it because it is down right uncomfortable. Continue the shower contrasts over a 30 day period. Take notice how you feel afterwards... it will keep you coming back for more. It gets easier and easier because the adaptive mechanisms, including the smooth muscles that line the blood vessels, adapt... they get stronger, faster and more efficient at doing what they were designed to do. You will notice that your ability to withstand cold will increase considerably after only a few days. Like any other stressor, we adapt… it gets easier… and it starts to feel amazing.You never know, cold exposures could easily be the missing link to the strength, energy and other health benefits that we are all after. Send me an email... let me know your thoughts... let me know your questions. I'd love to hear from you. Our mission is our purpose... putting back in, what the modern world has left out. SLEEP LIKE A ROCK On the hierarchy of health decisions, sleep trumps almost everything else. It's the low hanging fruit that can affect health metrics more than just about anything else. It's the time when your body and your brain detox, recover, rebuild and restore. How amazing is your sleep? Exactly what I thought! Instead of writing a long boring article about sleep tips, I'm bullet pointing this one.. why... because it's getting late and I need to get some shut eye. Get morning sun exposure (at the same time everyday) to regulate sleep / wake cycles. Finish your last meal at least 3 to 4 hours before bedtime... trust me, you can do this. Earthing... you can do it the old fashioned way or you can use grounding sheets like we do (Google it). We go on barefoot hikes all the time... we use an EMF meter to make sure there are no electrical fields around our bed... we turn off the wifi (actually don't have wifi but you do, so turn it off at night)... put your phone in airplane mode and make sure that there are no electronics (nor lights) anywhere near you. Your sleep temperature should be between 64 and 68. Use blackout curtains and blackout blinds... room needs to be pitch black. No battery lights, no night lights, nothing! Use Himalayan salt lamps at sunset instead of regular lighting. Wear UVEX safety goggles at least 2 hours before going to bed... this one is seriously a big deal. They cost $9 and they make all the difference. If you're not going to do anything else, do this! Last but not least, sleep on the floor like our tribe does... why you ask... because our bodies were never meant to be in a cast, courtesy of your bed, all night. Why do you think you wake up feeling like a stiff Rick. Katy Bowman is a biomechanist and author of Move Your DNA. She sleeps on the floor. She got us sleeping on the floor. If you want to know how to do it, check it out here. IF ONE HAD THEIR THYMUS REMOVED, HOW WOULD THYMUS GLANDULAR WORK? If one had their thyroid removed, not only would Thyroid glandular still work, it would be necessary for life because each and every cell requires thyroid hormone (T3) for energy metabolism and mitochondrial signaling. Same goes for the pancreas... if one had their pancreas removed, pancreas glandular (and pancreas producing enzymes and peptides such as insulin) would be necessary to sustain life. As it relates to having the spleen removed, our biology still expects spleen producing peptides such as tuftsin, splenopentin and splenin which further support and modulate the immune system (by stimulating macrophages and enhancing natural killer (NK) cell activity). The thymus gland is no different, our biology still expects thymus producing peptides such as thymosin, thymopoietin and serum thymic factor in order to heal and be healthy. The elegance of animal physiology is that glands secrete peptides and other chemical-like substances that exert downstream effects at the cellular level. If one has a certain organ / gland removed, the body still expects those peptides and other chemical-like substances at the cellular level. What's more is that many of our functional healthcare practitioner accounts use glandular therapy for this exact purpose... that is, to provide the otherwise absent glandular nourishment that our cells need and expect for strength, health and happiness.
