Bovine Organ Complex (120’s)

Description

Bovine Organ Complex (120’s)

Bovine Organ Complex is a dietary supplement made from the freeze-dried (desiccated) organs of healthy, grass-fed cows. It typically includes a blend of nutrient-rich organs such as:

• Liver

• Heart

• Kidney

• Pancreas

• Spleen

• Thymus

These supplements aim to provide nutritional support based on the concept of “like supports like”—the idea that consuming animal organs may support the health of the corresponding human organ.

What It Is

• A whole-food supplement designed to deliver dense, bioavailable nutrients in their natural form.

• Based on ancestral nutrition, the idea that traditional diets included organ meats for optimal health.

Key Features (for quality products)

• Sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle

• Hormone-free, antibiotic-free, and non-GMO

• Freeze-dried to maintain nutritional integrity

• Often contains no fillers, binders, or flow agents

Medicinal & Nutritional Information

✅ Key Nutrients Provided

Each organ contributes specific nutrients:

Purported Health Benefits

⚠️ Note: Scientific evidence is limited for many of these claims. Most support is anecdotal or based on nutritional theory.

1. Immune System Support

• Thymus and spleen extracts are believed to modulate immune responses.

• Organ-derived peptides may stimulate immune cells.

2. Energy & Mitochondrial Health

• High in B vitamins (especially B12) and iron, particularly from liver and kidney.

• CoQ10 (from heart) supports mitochondrial energy production.

3. Hormonal & Adrenal Support

• Some users claim benefits for adrenal fatigue or hormone balance, especially when the adrenal gland is included (in some formulas).

4. Gut Health & Histamine Intolerance

• Kidney contains DAO (diamine oxidase), an enzyme that may help break down histamine.

5. Ancestral Diet Philosophy

• Based on traditional practices and the nose-to-tail philosophy, organ meats are considered nutrient-dense and beneficial for systemic support.

⚠️ Potential Risks and Considerations

• Heavy Metals or Toxins: Organs may accumulate toxins if not sourced from clean, grass-fed animals.

• Vitamin A Toxicity: Liver is extremely high in vitamin A; excessive intake may lead to hypervitaminosis A.

• Allergic Reactions: Rare but possible, especially in those with autoimmune conditions or meat allergies.

• Not Suitable for Everyone: Especially those with iron overload disorders (e.g., hemochromatosis).

Dosage

Varies by brand, but commonly:

• 3–6 capsules per day, often equivalent to a few grams of raw organ meat.

• Some products suggest taking with meals.
