— "Blood runs through our veins to supply our body with life, nutrients, and energy... just as water runs through our canyons to supply the earth with life, nutrients, and energy."–– River Universe NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH BLOOD VITALITY * 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 our blood health is ailing. The solution is to address the root cause with dietary, lifestyle, and behavioral choices while nourishing and supporting our blood with proven anthropological ways that are backed by modern science... this includes the use of Blood Vitality. WE EVOLVED EATING ALL PARTS OF THE ANIMAL  Our ancestors believed that the blood of an animal was its life force. They honored blood as a sacred outpouring of vitality, strength, and vigor. They knew that consuming this rich crimson liquid would support their own life force. The Inuit are well known for their consumption of blood from a variety of animals, particularly seal. Their tribe believes seal blood is the blood of all Inuit people. The elders say "Seal blood is in all Inuit who were raised eating animals. Seal blood gives us our blood. Seal is life-giving." According to the oldest hunter in the community, "Inuit blood is thick and dark like the seal we eat. When a seal is eaten the veins in the wrist expand as our blood becomes stronger and improves in color and thickness. When the body is warm with seal blood, the soul is also protected from illness." When the Inuit are deprived of seal or other traditional foods, they become physically, and mentally sick. They evolved consuming these foods and continue to do so with deep respect to protect their health, strength, and vitality. [1] Led by Ghengis Khan, the ruthless and bloodthirsty Mongols commanded, conquered, and bowed to no one while surviving on a diet of horse blood and horse liquor (made from fermented horse milk). It was said that when these warriors grew hungry, they would cut a vein in the neck of their horse to drink its nourishing blood. Revitalized and invigorated, they would continue to ride across any terrain without stopping for months in order to establish the largest land empire in world history (covering 9 million square miles!). The late great Weston A. Price traveled the world to study ancestral human nutrition and he has written about many accounts of tribes whose diets consisted of milk, meat, and blood. These tribes included the Bahema, Nilotic, the Masai, the Muhima, and Neur tribes. Price wrote, "The Neurs at Malakal on the Nile River are a unique tribe because of their remarkable stature. Many of the women are six feet tall, and the men range from six feet to seven and a half feet in height. Their food consists very largely of animal life of the Nile, dairy products, milk and blood from the herds... throughout the centuries these tribes have depended very largely on milk, meat and blood… They milk the cows daily and bleed the steers at regular intervals by a unique process… These three sources, milk, meat, and blood provide them with liberal supplies of body-building minerals and the essential vitamins, both fat soluble and water soluble." [2] Blood Vitality provides us with all of the nutritional building blocks we need to support our own life force (our blood). Our ancestors knew that blood made us healthy and strong... and thankfully this wisdom hasn't been entirely lost. Throughout many cultures, blood is still honored every day as a sacred food and is still used in many dishes. (Sausages, pancakes, soups, pastries, and even some candy bars are made with blood.) Blood was and still is a highly prized delicacy. Whole food, nutrient dense organs, glands, and blood can provide great benefit for those seeking fundamental support in harmony with nature — the old fashioned way, the way that our early ancestors did. Blood Vitality is a whole food dietary supplement that contains pure grass fed, grass finished, New Zealand sourced bovine blood, liver, and spleen. These nutrient-dense foods are rich in heme iron, red and white blood cells, platelets, immunoglobulins (immune proteins), vitamin B12, A, D, K2, CoQ10, choline, folate, as well as peptides, cofactors and enzymes that nourish and support our whole body especially our blood, liver, and spleen.* BENEFITS OF BLOOD VITALITY  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 weak blood and low energy was to feed the person the blood of a healthy animal. Similarly, eating the liver of a healthy animal was believed to support nutrient deficiencies and overall health... spleen was fed to people with immune and digestive issues. This is known as “like supports like”. Organs and glandulars 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.*[3] Our early ancestors knew this, which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of blood and nose-to-tail organ meats like liver and spleen. BLOOD - THE VESSEL OF VITALITY Our blood is the vessel that carries vital nutrients, oxygen, and hormones throughout our entire body in order to provide nourishment to our organs, bones, muscles, tendons and skin. Interestingly, this life-giving fluid is a specialized type of connective tissue that consists of red blood cells, platelets, and white blood cells suspended in a liquid plasma matrix. Blood regulates our pH, our body temperature, and the hydration of our cells. It fights infections and protects us from disease by transporting immune proteins, phagocytic white blood cells, and antibodies where they are needed most. It even protects itself by forming blood clots to prevent excess blood loss. With the proper nourishment from blood, our organs and tissues can function normally to promote our optimal overall health. In the modern world, many of us are struggling with nutrient deficiencies and poor blood health… most commonly anemia. Anemia is derived from the Greek word anaimiā, meaning "without blood".  Anemia is a deficiency of red blood cells and/or hemoglobin that occurs when the body doesn’t produce enough healthy red cells, has lost too many, or destroys them faster than they can be replaced. The treatment of anemia depends upon the underlying disease… think root cause. Most medical practitioners treat anemic symptoms by simply throwing iron tablets at the problem. That said, more iron isn’t always the answer... in addition to iron, the body also needs riboflavin, folate, and vitamin B12 to produce healthy red blood cells. (Pro Tip: Liver is rich in riboflavin, folate, and B12!) If you’re struggling with anemia, you’ll need to address it before trying to work on other health concerns. Iron is fundamental for energy production thus resolving other health issues will be virtually impossible until iron levels are increased. Any of the strategies you attempt to solve other health concerns aren't going to reach their full potential, or may not work at all, if energy production is compromised. Resolving anemia should be your first priority. That said, increasing iron levels won't sort out anemia in the long-term if there is another underlying problem. Poor spleen, liver, or thyroid health, celiacs, or other absorption issues might be at play. Once you’ve increased iron levels you’ll need to address the other underlying conditions to promote healthy long term iron status. Beyond energy production, iron is needed to synthesize nitric oxide (a blood vessel dilator), so not only do you not have enough oxygen in your blood when anemic, you can’t deliver it as well to your tissues. The thyroid peroxidase enzyme is dependent on iron, so if you have low iron your thyroid production will suffer as well. The enzyme that produces bleach to kill pathogens, myeloperoxidase, is also iron dependent. If you don’t have enough iron you can’t engage in that particular pattern of pathogen destruction, which means your immune system is going to fail and make you susceptible to acute infections, as well as increase the potential for chronic infections and gut dysbiosis. I believe the answer lies in our evolutionary past... eating like our early ancestors did, consuming the whole animal, nose to tail, horns to hooves, bones to blood!! Blood contains Vitamin B-12, Coq10, bio-identical Vitamin D, and is nature’s most concentrated source of heme iron. Blood has 5x more heme iron than Beef Spleen and10x more than Beef Liver (the most commonly used food sources of heme iron). [6]* This is one of many reasons why consuming blood is so essential for blood health. That said, remember there’s more that goes into creating healthy blood… The combination of Blood, Liver, and Spleen provides all the necessary vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and cofactors to support endogenous iron production and blood building. Other iron-rich foods such as red meat, liver, eggs, or oysters should be an essential part of your diet. There may also be some value in keeping foods rich in vitamin C such as acerola cherries, citrus or berries in your diet to help improve iron absorption (although Vitamin C is only needed to improve absorption of non-heme iron). When battling low iron, it’s important to note that high fiber foods, excessive coffee and tea consumption, calcium, and oxalates can all significantly reduce the absorption of iron from foods. LIVER - THE ULTIMATE SUPERFOOD Nestled in our abdomen above the stomach and spleen, sits one of our largest internal organs, the liver. The liver plays a major role in blood filtration and holds about one pint (13%) of the body's blood supply at any given moment. All blood leaving the stomach and intestines passes through the liver, where the liver breaks down, balances, and converts the nutrients into forms that are easier for the rest of the body to utilize. Our liver participates in over 500 vital biological functions. As it relates to blood functions, our liver is responsible for the production of blood plasma proteins, the processing of hemoglobin for use of its iron content, and clearing the blood of poisonous substances. With the help of vitamin K, the liver produces proteins that are important in blood clotting. It is also one of the organs that break down old or damaged blood cells. [4] As adults our bone marrow is responsible for producing our blood cells, however, when in embryo, it’s our liver that produces our blood. In adults with severe anemia, the liver is able to partially restore its ability of producing blood. [5] Grass fed liver holds the nutritional keys to blood health as it is particularly rich in vitamin A, B12, choline, folate, riboflavin and many other powerful nutrients that most people are deficient in. Grass fed Liver supports endogenous iron production, the building of blood, hemoglobin health, and liver health too. High quality desiccated beef liver supports our blood health as well as our connective tissue systems (skin, hair, gums, ligaments, tendons, etc.), energy metabolism, immune, hormone, heart, and brain health. Whether from grass fed beef, bison, or lamb, grass fed liver is one of the most nutrient-dense, health promoting foods you could possibly eat. Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of liver since the beginning of time… Hunters all over the world, for uncounted thousands of years, would first eat the raw livers of the animals they killed. Lions and other predatory animals will also eat the liver first. SPLEEN - THE LIFE FORCE GENERATOR Our spleen is a much smaller organ, no bigger than the size of your fist, connected to the upper left side of our stomach where it plays a role in digestion, immune support, and blood health. Our spleen plays a vital role in blood building as it recycles red blood cells, iron, platelets and maintains a reserve of red blood cells, platelets and white blood cells — releasing them when needed. Spleen works to improve iron status, purify blood and support hemoglobin health. Spleen is another concentrated source of heme iron with 5x the iron content of Beef Liver and it is well known for its ability to strengthen blood, although it also supports strong immune / allergy health, and aids in the metabolic health of our blood cells. Spleen contains unique peptides such as tuftsin & splenopentin that have been shown to enhance and modulate immune health. While tuftsin stimulates macrophages and other defensive cells, deficiency of tuftsin is linked to bacterial infections, pneumonia, and meningitis. Spleen extracts & splenin (a peptide hormone from spleen) further support immune health by increasing the number of neutrophils and macrophages. Consuming spleen tissue from a healthy animal strengthens and supports our own spleen. When our spleen works better, our immune function improves along with our blood health.   ANCESTRAL WISDOM BACKED BY SCIENCE [NUTRITION] Dr. Royal Lee, and other early nutritional pioneers, believed the degenerative processes of a specific organ / gland could be reversed by ingesting the corresponding raw materials specific to that organ / gland.*[6] Based on the concept of "like supports like," Blood Vitality may nourish and support our own red/white blood cells, cardiovascular health, immune function, and energy production. Blood Vitality is a combination of 100% Grass Fed Bovine Blood, Liver, and Spleen. These nutrient dense foods provide us with the essential building blocks to form healthy blood, improve iron status, and fight off infections.* RED / WHITE BLOOD CELLS AND PLATELETS Our blood is our river of life, transporting various substances that must be carried from one part of our body to another. Within our river of blood we have three different types of blood cells… red, white, and platelets. Red blood cells transport oxygen to our body's organs and tissues, white blood cells help our body fight infections, and platelets help our blood coagulate. Together, red cells (erythrocytes) and white cells (leukocytes) are part of the full blood count, one of the most frequently requested haematology tests. Blood consists of 45% red blood cells, less than 1% white blood cells and platelets, and 55% plasma. All three types of blood cells are manufactured from stem cells deep within our bone marrow. Our blood cells are constantly being replenished since our red blood cells normally live for about 120 days, while some white blood cells only live for one to three days. Red Blood Cells are shaped like small round discs with an indented center and flow smoothly through the blood vessels. Any irregular shape can make the cells "sticky" and unable to flow smoothly. This causes a blockage in blood flow and can lead to acute / chronic pain, infection or organ damage. Deformed cells die faster than normal blood cells—in about 10 to 20 days instead of 120 days. This causes a shortage of red blood cells. The protein molecule of our red blood cells, hemoglobin, is what carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide to be expelled. Embedded within the heme compound is an iron atom that is responsible for the color of our blood. The level of oxygen in our blood cells determines the brightness of the red color. Blood pumped directly from the heart is oxygen rich and bright red, while blood carrying carbon dioxide is a much darker red and can appear deep blue or even purple when seen through the skin. White Blood Cells are our immunity cells, always prepared for battle. They flow through our bloodstream to fight viruses, bacteria, and other foreign invaders that threaten our health. When our body is in distress and a particular area is under attack, white blood cells rush in to help destroy the harmful substance and prevent illness. There are many different types of white blood cells that play a role in the immune response... essentially we have general responders and targeted responders. General responders are white blood cells that recognize the antigens on the surface of bacteria, viruses, and other invaders and quickly destroy them. These cells don’t discriminate among different threats in your body; they just launch an all-out attack. This is known as a generalized immune response. Some of these cells also help pave the way for a more targeted response to specific bacteria, viruses, and other unwanted materials. Targeted responders are white blood cells known as lymphocytes, which target invaders by producing proteins called antibodies that attack specific antigens. This process is known as a targeted or specific immune response. Each antigen that enters your body has an antibody targeted to it. Your body remembers which antibody will destroy a certain intruder, which creates a quicker immune response in the future. Platelets are small, colorless cell fragments in our blood that form clots and stop or prevent bleeding. They are essential to surviving surgeries such as organ transplant, as well as fighting cancer, chronic diseases, and traumatic injuries. If one of your blood vessels gets damaged, it sends out signals to the platelets. Platelets then rush to the site of damage and form a clot by spreading across the broken blood vessel. When platelets get to the site of the injury, they grow sticky tentacles that help them adhere to one another. They even call in for reinforcements, by sending out chemical signals to attract more platelets. With the help of our red cells, white cells, and platelets we are filled with oxygen, freed of carbon dioxide, protected from infections, and our wounds are tended to. Blood is the living liquid plasma complex that contains our essential workers (oxygen and carbon dioxide transport), first responders (wound healing and general immune response), and special ops, complete with detectives and snipers (targeted immune response). Consuming Blood Vitality provides the fundamental building blocks to support the health and production of our red & white blood cells and platelets. BIOIDENTICAL VITAMIN D Vitamin D3 is the bioidentical form of vitamin D synthesized in the body from cholesterol, following activation by UV rays in sunlight. Regular sun exposure is excellent for maintaining healthy levels of vitamin D in the body. In the modern world sun exposure is often not sufficient for adequate vitamin D production, simply because we don’t spend enough time outside, or we live in climates where the sun doesn’t shine year round. Getting Vitamin D from our food may be more important now, than it has ever been. Animal sources of Vitamin D3 include blood, organs, chicken and fish eggs, fatty cuts of red meat, and grass fed full fat dairy. It is no wonder blood was so highly prized by our ancestors. Blood contains bioidentical Vitamin D! This is the Vitamin D boost that traditional cultures always had access to, when sunlight was not a readily available option. Modern science suggests roles for vitamin D not only in bone health, but also in supporting immune, neurological, musculoskeletal, cellular, and cardiovascular health. Many health experts argue that the seasonal flu is really just a Vitamin D deficiency. By some estimates, over 90% of Americans are deficient in this critical nutrient. About 75% of people with IBS have insufficient vitamin D, and about 70% see improvement when supplementing with Vitamin D. Get your daily dose of midday sunshine and enjoy vitamin D rich foods like Blood Vitality, our Wild Caught Fish Eggs, pastured animal fats and raw grass-fed dairy. HEME IRON Depending on whether we are male or female, we have about 2-4 grams of iron in our body. More than 95% of functional iron in the human body is in the form of heme. Iron comes in two forms: heme and non-heme. Heme iron is only found in animal food sources (muscle meat, organs, blood, etc). Non-heme iron is found in plant foods like whole grains, nuts, seeds, legumes, and leafy greens. Heme iron is more bioavailable (absorbed more efficiently) than non-heme iron, thus the body is more likely to absorb iron from animal products than iron derived from plant foods. Heme iron is an essential nutrient for humans. That said, there can be complications that come from too much iron because it is one of nature's most potent oxidants. Oxidants aren’t bad… they are natural by-products our cells create when they convert food into energy. They're a totally normal part of the way our bodies function and all natural oxidants are easily tolerated. We need to be in a sweet spot where the amount of iron is just right. Processed foods fortified with iron deliver nonheme iron straight into the gastrointestinal tract where it isn’t absorbed easily and is likely to run free. It becomes free energy for pathogens and can cause oxidative stress. That’s one reason (among many!) to avoid refined grains. Iron deficiency and iron overload are two common problems that exist side by side in the modern world. Because iron has these two roles of health and destruction, we need a sophisticated biological system to regulate how much we adsorb and what we do with it. Understanding how this system works is essential for figuring out how to solve your iron issues and how to interpret blood tests regarding iron status. If you want to get into the blood and guts of iron status read the section at the bottom of the page entitled: Iron Management B Vitamins In addition to iron, the body also needs riboflavin (B2), folate (B9), and Vitamin B12 to produce healthy red blood cells. Folate is essential for red blood cell formation, immune, brain and cardiovascular health. Riboflavin is essential for the absorption and correct distribution of iron. B12 helps with energy production and DNA synthesis. All B vitamins help the body metabolize fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. They also help the nervous system function properly and are necessary for a healthy liver, skin, hair, and eyes. Riboflavin (B2) Riboflavin helps our body absorb iron and direct it where it needs to go. In addition to providing energy for the body, riboflavin also acts as an antioxidant, helps the body convert B6 and folate into forms it can use, and is necessary for growth and cell formation. Depending on our diet, age, iron status, and hormone health, each of us will have a unique need for riboflavin. Low thyroid and adrenal hormones can impair your utilization and retention of riboflavin. Lifestyle practices that increase your need for riboflavin include: sun exposure, exercise, growth (children need more riboflavin than adults), and diet. Consuming a ketogenic diet increases riboflavin needs because burning fat requires almost twice as much riboflavin as burning carbohydrates. If you have iron deficiency anemia that doesn't respond to an iron rich diet and iron supplementation you may be running low on riboflavin. Most people may actually need 2-5 milligrams of riboflavin per day instead of the RDA of 1.3 mg. Those with anemia may consider 5-10mg per day. Improving your riboflavin levels can help to improve your iron absorption. Even simply improving riboflavin status (without additional iron supplementation) can improve your hemoglobin levels. Our ancestors ate diets largely based on animal foods including nutrient dense organ meats, rich in riboflavin. Riboflavin deficiency is a consequence of the modern diet. We no longer consume the whole animal, nose to tail. Consuming one to two servings of grass fed liver per week would do a lot to improve riboflavin status. Grass Fed Liver is the number one source of riboflavin. Folate (B9)  Folate aids in the complete development of red blood cells, reduces levels of homocysteine in the blood, and supports nervous system function. Folate is a general term for a group of water soluble b-vitamins, and is also known as B9. It's important to know the difference between folate and folic acid. Folic acid is a synthetic compound used in dietary supplements and food fortification, whereas folate is naturally found in whole foods. Human exposure to folic acid was non-existent until its chemical synthesis in 1943, and was introduced as a mandatory food fortification in 1998. [7] Several studies have reported the presence of unmetabolized folic acid in the blood following the consumption of folic acid supplements or fortified foods and researchers have hypothesized that the excessive consumption of folic acid in fortified foods may be directly related to the increase in cancer rates and cognitive decline. [8] Our ancestors did not need to supplement with synthetic compounds, as they got everything they could possibly need from their ancestral diet. Not surprisingly, one of the best food sources of folate is Grass Fed Beef Liver. B12 (cobalamin) Vitamin B12 works synergistically with folate to synthesize DNA and red blood cells. It assists in the production of myelin, which protects your nerve cells (neurons) and regulates nerve impulse transmission. Vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with macrocytic anemia, a condition in which red blood cells are larger than normal due to impaired cell division. That said, this type of anemia is only one symptom of B12 deficiency. There are many other B12 deficiency symptoms that occur long before anemia sets in, including: cognitive decline, memory loss, brain fog, depression, cardiovascular problems, peripheral neuropathy (numbness, tingling, burning in the hands, legs and feet), impaired immune function, infertility, developmental and learning disabilities. Unfortunately, B12 deficiency is often missed by physicians and diagnosed as Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis. A common myth among vegetarians and vegans is that it’s possible to get B12 from plant sources like seaweed, fermented soy, spirulina, and brewer’s yeast. The truth is, there are almost no vegan sources of vitamin B12. Nearly all seaweed tested has been revealed to contain vitamin B12 analogs (that is, chemically similar) called cobamides that actually block the intake of—and increase the need for—true B12. [9] B12 is also known as Cobalamin, because it contains the trace element cobalt. Cobalamin is produced in the gut of animals and is found almost exclusively in animal foods. Some of the best sources of B12 are liver, clams, oysters, mussels, fish eggs, octopus, crab, lobster, beef, lamb, cheese and eggs. We can avoid all forms of anemia, cognitive decline, cardiovascular and immune issues simply by consuming the foods of our ancestors. Blood Vitality is a whole food supplement containing grass fed bovine blood, liver, and spleen that are rich in B vitamins, including B12, riboflavin, and folate which support our fundamental health, iron status, immune function, and cardiovascular health. VITAMIN A & K2 Vitamin A (retinol) is one of several fat-soluble activators necessary for the assimilation of minerals in the diet. Think of Vitamin A as the concertmaster. Its many functions include forming and maintaining healthy teeth, skin, mucous membranes, skeletal and soft tissues. It also plays a role in protein utilization. The majority of nutrition experts insist that humans can transform carotenes from fruits and vegetables to vitamin A. This is only conditionally true and is highly inefficient. Infants, diabetics, and those with poor thyroid function or zinc deficiency, (a group that makes up nearly half the US population) don’t make the conversion. And as for the rest of us… excessive consumption of alcohol, nonheme iron, prescription drugs, polyunsaturated fats, and even cold weather can hinder the conversion of carotenes to vitamin A. (4) Blood Vitality is a good source of preformed, bioavailable Vitamin A. Blood Vitality is also rich in Vitamin K2. Dr. Weston A. Price discovered that Activator X (now known as K2), seemed to be responsible for normal bone formation, overall skeletal health, cognitive function, healthy cavity-free teeth, reproductive capabilities, and protection against arterial calcification. K2 is one of the fat-soluble activators, a super nutrient that enables our bodies to absorb and utilize all of the minerals from the foods we eat. "It is possible to starve for minerals that are abundant in the foods eaten because they cannot be utilized without an adequate quantity of the fat-soluble activators.” - Weston A. Price. There are two major forms of Vitamin K2 — MK-4 and MK-7. MK-4 is derived from animal sources, such as fish eggs, pastured chicken eggs, grass-fed dairy (butterfats), meat, and in particular organ meat, such as liver. MK-7 is derived from fermented foods like sauerkraut, hard cheeses, and kefir. Vitamin K2 is an essential ingredient to include in your diet if you're interested in decalcifying your pineal gland. K2 deconstructs calcium phosphate deposits of the pineal gland and ushers the released calcium back into the bones, where it belongs. Bone marrow, liver, and wild-caught fish eggs are all abundant in vitamin K2 (the MK-4 variety). While smashing bones and sucking out marrowfat was the hard way our ancestors obtained vitamin K, it's not that difficult to obtain marrow bones and either oven roast 3" pieces or slow cook them to make them extra delicious/nutritious... or consider getting our Pure Marrow on board! PEPTIDES: SPLENIN, TUFTSIN, AND SPLENOPENTIN Based on the concept of "like supports like," consuming Blood Vitality may strengthen and support our own blood, liver, and spleen… this ancestral superfood is especially rich in blood, liver, and spleen specific enzymes and peptides, such as splenin, tuftsin, splenopentin which have been shown to enhance and modulate immune health.*[8] These essential nutrients all work synergistically with each other in harmony with nature, and in harmony with the wisdom of our ancestors. Peptides are tissue-specific information molecules, which influence gene expression, start the process of protein synthesis in cells, and regulate proper cell functioning. Enzymes are biological catalysts that encourage metabolic, catabolic, and digestive processes in the body, in other words, they help cells rebuild and detoxify. A young, healthy person's organs and glands consistently produce an optimal amount of peptides and enzymes, but as we age and are impacted by a number of different stressors ( environmental toxins, poor nutrition, stress, etc.) our organs and glands will decrease protein synthesis and no longer be able to form new peptides or enzymes. Deficiency of these nutrients results in cellular dysfunction, degenerative diseases, and accelerated aging. One of the most effective ways to counter this deficiency is the consumption of blood, liver, and spleen specific peptides and enzymes, by consuming their respective glandulars (Blood Vitality). While liver peptides and enzymes are only found within liver tissues, the same goes for spleen, and so on... it turns out mammalian specific peptides and enzymes are bio-identical to one another. In other words, bovine peptides and enzymes are accepted by the human body as our own endogenous substances. Consuming Blood Vitality supplies our bodies with peptides and enzymes it can recognize and use.

Methylation & Detoxification Pathways* SUGGESTED USE (6 CAPSULES PER DAY) Our Blood Vitality is a whole food dietary supplement that provides 100% pure bovine blood, spleen, and liver. The suggested use of this supplement is to take 6 capsules per day (even though it technically is food) or as directed by a healthcare professional — for added support, the dose can be doubled. If consuming more than six capsules at once, the doses should be separated by at least three hours to improve tolerability. 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. For customers that are highly sensitive to supplements and/or have an autoimmune and/or methylation SNPs, I suggest that you "play it safe" by introducing just one new capsule per week. In other words, just 1 capsule during the 1st week... 2 capsules during the 2nd week... 3 capsules during the 3rd week and so on... yes, this will take some time to reach the suggested dosages but this greatly helps to ensure tolerability of this deep nourishment so that it has a chance to do good.

Heart Health Based On "Like Supports Like"  Blood Pressure Health  Mitochondria Health  (supports energy, endurance, stamina and immune health)  Athletic Performance  Connective Tissue Health  NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH GRASS FED BEEF HEART 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 12% of the U.S. adult population has heart disease. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death for both men and women. 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 Heart is a whole food dietary supplement that provides 100% pure bovine heart as it exists in nature. This whole food is the richest source of CoQ10 and also provides proteins, peptides, cofactors and enzymes exclusively expressed in heart tissue which may strengthen and support one's own heart.* 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.

BENEFITS OF EATING HEART 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. 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. 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 heart may strengthen and support our own heart.* — The richest source of naturally occurring coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). Supports heart and blood pressure health and is a nutritional powerhouse for mitochondria.* — — Provides proteins exclusively expressed in heart tissue along with nutrients, cofactors and enzymes that may support heart health and athletic performance.* — [ NOTE: Eating the heart out of a freshly killed animal was tradition among some early ancestral societies. By doing so, they believed they could receive certain qualities of the animal, such as strength and stamina, and that blood and energy flows from one living creature to another. ] SUGGESTED USE (3 TO 6 CAPSULES A DAY) Six capsules provides the equivalent of one ounce of fresh, raw whole bovine heart that you’d get from your local farmer (or) butcher. Our Grass Fed Beef Heart is a whole food dietary supplement that can be taken with (or) without food (even though it technically is food). The suggested use is 3 to 6 capsules a day which can be consumed all at once, or divided servings throughout the 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 organ meats are created equal. Consider the source, and consider the following:    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 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 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.

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 BEEF HEART SUMMARY Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of nose-to-tail dining since the beginning of time. Grassfed beef heart is especially rich in the supernutrient CoQ10, vitamin B12, collagen and elastin, and proteins, peptides, enzymes and cofactors that are exclusively expressed in heart tissue. The health and happiness effects of consuming beef heart include supporting one's own heart, blood pressure health and mitochondria health (the energy currency).* Not all organ meats are the same. Look for a high quality beef heart that comes 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 and co-factors. SAFETY OF OUR GRASS-FED, PASTURE-RAISED LIVER For those interested, beef heart that is freeze-dried does not flow very well into capsules. The solution... add a little bit of freeze-dried liver. This is why and how we developed the constituents of our Beef Heart supplement (500MG HEART With 50MG LIVER). I frequently field questions regarding the addition of our liver as it relates to safety concerns. This section should cover it. 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 HEART 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. 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 cold-induced norepinephrine lowers inflammation and pain by decreasing the levels of 3 inflammatory mediators…”  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... stay away from danger (think excessive wifi, dirty electricity, emfs)... slow down... go barefoot, connect to the earth... get sensible sun exposure... get cold... mind your magnesium... sleep like a rock... keep stress in check... and breathe like Wim Hoff. ] HOW MUCH COQ10 IN GRASSFED BEEF HEART Keep in mind that grass fed heart is the richest source of CoQ10 that exists in nature... that said, there's more to the story than "experts" recommending 100 to 200mg of exogenous CoQ10 per day. I hope that you will read this entire response so that you will know the importance of endogenous production and how to best support it in harmony with our biology. I promise you that it's worth the read. A six capsule serving of our Grass Fed Beef Heart will supply approximately 10mg of CoQ10... Six capsules provides the equivalent of one ounce of fresh, raw whole bovine heart that you’d get from your local farmer (or) butcher. That said, even if you consumed a plateful of grass fed heart, say 6 ounces, you'd be getting approximately 60 mg of CoQ10.Like I said, there's obviously more to the story when it comes to managing your CoQ10 status at the tissue level (hint, hint: endogenous production is pretty important here). There is really nothing that exists in "nature" that would have regularly supplied "supra physiological" amounts of CoQ10 that are found in many CoQ10 supplements today. In fact, research points to us requiring up to 500 mg per day of CoQ10. If the average CoQ10 content of the western diet is only 5 mg per day, then food contributes only about 1 percent of daily CoQ10 requirements — the balance comes from endogenous production (within the body).Synthesis of CoQ10 indispensably requires the B vitamins (vitamins B2, B6, B12, folate, niacin and pantothenic acid) along with several trace elements, including selenium, which protects CoQ10 from oxidation. Deficiencies in any of these nutrients result in reduced synthesis of CoQ10 and cause many other adverse effects as well. So how do we manage our CoQ10 status at the tissue level... in our hearts, and in our livers and in our brains (not just in our blood)... Eat traditional foods that contain high amounts of CoQ10 such as grass fed liver, grass fed heart and grass fed brain. Don't do this for the CoQ10 content... Do this because these foods provide the vitamin and mineral content to support endogenous production of CoQ10.In summary, the vitamin and mineral content of foods is therefore of greater importance for maintaining CoQ10 status than their CoQ10 content. Remember just how smart nature is... Most of the foods that contain significant amounts of CoQ10 are also rich in many of the nutrients required for CoQ10 synthesis (heart, liver and brain). These foods were prized by our early ancestors for a reason which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of nose-to-tail organ meats.Send me an email... reply to the comment... let me know your thoughts... let me know your questions. I'd love to hear from you.— There has never been a case of mad cow disease in New Zealand. BSE (mad cow disease), scrapie and other known TSE’s, do not occur in New Zealand. A national surveillance program is in place to provide comprehensive monitoring —  TOP [13] TO IMPROVE BLOOD PRESSURE HEALTH Once again, cut the carbs, increase healthy fats (bone marrow, egg yolks, ghee, wild fish) and lose more weight. Quarterly fasting (5-day water only fast) Increase intake of beneficial minerals like potassium, magnesium, and natural calcium and hyaluronic acid (from whole egg shells) Eat only grass-fed / grass-finished dairy products like yogurt, ghee, real butter and real cheese Eat at least one pound of fatty fish per week Increase NO2 (nitric oxide) by eating more beets, more mid-day sun and perform a nitric oxide dump as seen here.  Move more... it's just walking (30 mins in morning, 30 mins in afternoon, 30 minutes after dinner) Sleep more, sleep better... see our Ancestral Guide To Better Sleep Shut your mouth and perform deep diaphragmatic breathing. Slow breathing lowers blood pressure and enhances baroreflex sensitivity, a mechanism to control blood pressure via heart rate, in people with high blood pressure. This finding was so strong that researchers suggested slow breathing "appear[s] potentially beneficial in the management of hypertension." Google "Buteyko method" for more info. Connect to the earth daily, especially when blood pressure seems out of control... Perhaps buy a pair of grounding sheets. Cold showers are a must Avoid stress Supplements (see below) NOTE: Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator, which means it causes your blood vessels to expand and dilate, promoting blood flow and lowering blood pressure. If high blood pressure is related to kidney health (or a rhabdo event), this is a must read Mercola article here.  If situational high blood pressure is a recurrent issue, try slowing your respiratory rate to just six breaths per minute for a period of five minutes. This practice has been shown to significantly reduce blood pressure and result in a small reduction in resting heart rate. Are you on a calcium channel blocker (CCB)... is your body drawing calcium out of your bones and teeth to reach homeostasis in your blood and tissue... if so, consider consuming whole egg shells. Let me know if you need my recipe... my kids, wife and I take about 2 to 5 grams of egg shells daily and we also eat skin-on, bone-in sardines (along with wild fish eggs) on Wed and Sun.  SUPPLEMENTS FOR BLOOD PRESSURE HEALTH Magnesium — topical and oral... I like Ancient Minerals and Trace Minerals respectively  Dr. Mercola's Krill Oil Beet Juice Hibiscus Tea Garlic Vitamin A (preferably from grass fed liver) Vtiamin D (preferably from sunshine) Vitamin K (preferably from bone marrow and fermented foods) Ancestral Supplements Lung (w/ Liver) - for fundamental support; for targeted arteriovascular support Ancestral Supplements Bone Marrow - for fundamental support Ancestral Supplements Heart - for CoQ10, mitochondrial health and for targeted heart support OPTIONAL: Ancestral Supplements Kidney - for kidney support; if struggling kidney health is a root cause If you're not going to eat farm fresh liver, seared heart steak strips and/or homemade bone broth, consider our Grass Fed Lung (w/ Liver), our Grass Fed Bone Marrow and our Grass Fed Heart. These are fundamental to our physiology and provided the targeted support that many of our functional healthcare practitioners consider in their own practices. NOURISHING CHOLESTEROL All animal cells contain nourishing cholesterol; therefore, all animal foods have it, including our supplements. Most of our nose-to-tail foods have less than 1/10th of just one gram of fat per capsule... this is hardly anything. There is approximately 4 mg of glandular derived cholesterol per capsule to nourish cell membranes, to support hormones (including the synthesis of vitamin D), to synthesize neurotransmitters and to support overall nerve function — just to name a few. Here are some simple, verifiable scientific facts... Dietary cholesterol has little, or nothing, to do with blood cholesterol numbers. Heart attacks occur more often in people with "normal" ldl cholesterol numbers. Inflammation, triglycerides, fasting blood sugar and blood pressure are better predictors of heart health. "High" cholesterol is a predictor of longevity. Cholesterol level often reflects chronic inflammation in the body; the more inflammation you have, the higher your total cholesterol tends to be. Your body makes cholesterol to "patch up damages" from this ongoing inflammation. Cholesterol levels may also reflect the need to nourish other biological functions too... cell membranes, hormones, neurotransmitters, etc. For instance, when we're under a lot of stress (physical, mental and /or emotional), the body calls up its reserves of cholesterol to make corticoid hormones so that we can deal appropriately with the stress. Receptors for serotonin, the body's feel-good chemical, require cholesterol to work properly, which explains why low cholesterol is associated with depression, brain fog and other mood disorders. Need more assurance.. Recall that foods like liver, bone marrow and other organs / glands give us the vital nourishment that we need for energy metabolism, a strong immune system, a properly functioning endocrine system and to heal and be healthy. When our biology works better, there's less need for our own liver to ramp up the manufacturing of more cholesterol. That's right, this is where most of our cholesterol comes from... our own liver makes it and sends it for repair purposes! The take home message is this... grass-fed, pasture-raised organs and glands are not only safe to consume but one could convincingly argue that these nutrients are required to support and optimize our own blood cholesterol and overall heart health. Enjoy!

Nattovena is the world’s first ultra-concentrated 4,000 FU pure nattokinase dietary supplement, in easy-to-swallow micro-caps. Nattovena contains ultra-refined, pharmaceutical grade, acid stable nattokinase. Nattovena's potency is unparalleled in its class. The standard for nattokinase manufacturing is a potency of up to 2,000 FU’s, or fibrinolytic units, of fibrin degrading activity per capsule. Nattovéna has broken the mold by providing 4,000 FU’s of activity, or double the ordinary dose, offering the strongest nattokinase activity per capsule, period. Nattovena is specifically formulated to address fibrin imbalances in the body. Fibrin is a protein that plays a major role in blood clotting and scar formation, making it an essential component of the healing process and vital for maintaining our health and general well-being. However, fibrin overproduction and impaired fibrin degradation has been implicated in many of today’s most common circulatory health concerns. What is Nattokinase? Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic (fibrin-dissolving) enzyme originally discovered within a Japanese fermented soybean food called natto. The dish consists of soybeans fermented with a strain of Bacillus subtilis bacteria that in turn produce the enzyme, which upon its discovery was later named after the respective dish. The fermented dish, natto, has a slimy texture, sour taste and strong smell that is very unappealing to some. Despite its questionable taste, natto has been shown in numerous studies to have many health benefits. For its use in nutritional supplements, the nattokinase enzyme is extracted and purified in a laboratory setting. Nattovena provides twice the potency of ordinary nattokinase products available and is naturally acid stable in the stomach since it is derived from a food source. This gives Nattovena the added benefit of not having to use an enteric coating or plastic to protect it from stomach acid. Nattovena’s formula contains the highest Fibrinolytic Unit (FU) activity among the major brands of nattokinase supplements, allowing it to hydrolyze 4,000 units of fibrin per capsule, thereby optimizing its cardiovascular benefits and promoting normal blood viscosity. How Does Nattokinase Work? Fibrin is naturally produced in the body by a protein called thrombin and is degraded by the body's own fibrinolytic enzyme, plasmin. Fibrin is typically produced during the recovery and healing processes caused by injury or other health concerns. Usually, these processes exist in a delicate balance; however, many conditions can impair fibrin degradation and lead to excessive levels of fibrin within the body. Nattokinase supplementation can tip the balance back in favor of fibrin removal using two different mechanisms. Firstly, nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme, which means that it can literally dissolve excessive fibrin produced during the healing process. In fact, studies show that nattokinase is actually four times (4x) more potent than the body’s own plasmin in terms of fibrinolytic activity1. Secondly, nattokinase blocks the activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), which boosts its fibrinolytic capabilities even more. High levels of PAI-1 are directly linked to impaired fibrin degradation and removal, since PAI-1 blocks the body’s natural production of plasmin. By impeding PAI-1, nattokinase promotes the creation of more plasmin from plasminogen (its building block), increasing the amount of natural fibrinolytic enzymes created within the body2. Suggested Use Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule 2 to 3 times daily on an empty stomach. Higher doses may be taken as needed, but it is recommended to not exceed 15 capsules in any 24-hour period unless otherwise directed by a healthcare practitioner. WARNING: Do not take this product without the consent of your physician if you are currently taking blood thinning medications or if you are pregnant or nursing. Frequently Asked Questions What does Nattovena do? Studies have demonstrated that nattokinase improves overall circulation, promotes healthy blood viscosity, promotes healthy clotting factors, keeps blood cells from sticking together, and maintains blood pressure levels already within normal range.* How does it work? Nattovena supports normal clot formation by maintaining normal levels of blood coagulation factors.* It also supports normal clot breakdown by maintaining normal fibrinolytic (clot-dissolving) activity, due to its ability to also increase the production of the body's inherent fibrinolytic enzyme plasmin.* Why is fibrinolytic activity important? Fibrin is a vital protein that forms in response to trauma, injury, or even in cases of autoimmune conditions. The body can not only overproduce fibrin in these instances, but can also produce fibrin when there is no trauma or injury, which can lead to a bevy of unwanted symptoms. Fibrinolytic activity is the body’s natural way of breaking up excessive fibrin and unwanted clots. Is Nattovena safe? Nattokinase is derived from natto, which has been a regular food staple within Asian cuisine for centuries. Although nattokinase has many benefits, studies have shown that it also does not have demonstrative side effects, and the ingredient is considered GRAS (generally recognized as safe) within the US. Does Nattovena have value beyond just heart health? Due to the vast array of unhealthy conditions that excessive fibrin can bring, Nattovena has far greater value than a simple cardiovascular support product. Many aspects of health, from muscle recovery, to immune and joint health are directly related to fibrin and blood viscosity.* Is Nattovena safe to use in combination with prescription blood-thinning drug medication? You should always check with your health care provider prior to taking any new dietary supplements in combination with a prescription. However, Nattovena does not contain any vitamin K, so it is assumed to be compatible with these medications since their mode of action is based on inhibiting vitamin K. Nattovena is not contraindicated with aspirin, natural supplements, or antihypertensive medications although medical supervision when implementing any new supplement regimen is always recommended.

Duanwood Reishi   Reishi Mushroom Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) is the most revered herbal substance in Asia, ranking as the elite substance for the attainment of radiant health, longevity and spiritual attainment. It ranks in Asia with Ginseng, Deer Antler, Rhodiola, and Cordycepsas a pre-eminent tool in the attainment of radiant health.  It has maintained that position for at least 3000 years, and its reputation and value are only increasing.  Numerous legends provide a rich and extensive record of Reishi in Asian society.    Reishi has traditionally been used as an anti-aging herb, and has been used for many diseases and disorders as well. It has long been a favorite tonic food supplement by the Chinese Royal family and virtually any one who could obtain it. Reishi was particularly revered by the followers of the Taoist tradition as the "Elixir of Immortality." Taoists have continuously claimed that Reishi promotes calmness, centeredness, balance, inner awareness and inner strength. They have used it to improve meditative practices and to protect the body, mind and spirit so that the adept could attain both a long and healthy life and “spiritual immortality” (enlightenment). Due to its rarity in the past, the common people could rarely obtain a Reishi mushroom, and it was popularly revered as a greater treasure than any jewel.   Traditionally, Reishi is said to be a nourishing tonic, tonic to the three treasures (Jing, Qi and Shen). It is considered to be capable of building body resistance, and to be powerfully detoxifying to the cells and tissues of the body. Reishi is slightly sedative on an immediate basis but builds energy over time. Reishi is universally believed is Asia to prolong life and enhance intelligence and wisdom.   Since Reishi has been known to have many functions, it has been the subject of a great deal of research in recent years. It is absolutely safe, being non-toxic.   Reishi is a profound immune potentiator. It has been found to significantly improve the functioning of the immune system whether the immune system is deficient or excessive. In this sense, it is an immune "modulator" – that is, it helps to modulate, or regulate, and fine-tune the immune system. Our immune system is a virtually miraculous network of activities designed over millions of years to protect us from viruses, bacteria, parasites, molds, dust, pollen and malignant cells. It is the responsibility of the immune system to detect the intrusion, or invasion, of these entities and to mount a defense in order to eliminate them. A healthy immune system is capable of resisting most such intruders and a very hardy system may be able to resist invasions that many other people's systems cannot.  If the immune system is weakened or malfunctioning, the invading microbes can easily establish a foothold in our body and disease sets in. Antibiotics can often be used to stop the invasion at this time, but chronic use of antibiotics further weakens the immune response. Furthermore, antibiotics are useless against viruses, pollens and most parasites. They are certainly useless against malignant (cancerous) cells generated in our own bodies. It is much better to resist the invasion from within with a fully fortified immune system and not become ill in the first place.  This is where herbs like Reishi our now attracting the attention of scientists and consumers alike.   Many chemical constituents play a role in Reishi’s immune modulating capacity.  The polysaccharide components in particular seems to play an important role in attacking cancerous cells, but not healthy ones, while simultaneously strengthening the body's overall immune functions. The polysaccharides appear to help the body attack microbial invaders such as viruses, bacteria and yeast.    But Reishi does not just "stimulate" the immune system. It regulates it. And that is what makes Reishi so precious.  If the immune system is excessive, as is the case with autoimmune diseases and allergies, Reishi can have significant positive influence. A group of chemicals known as ganoderic acids help fight auto-immune diseases such as allergies. Ganoderic acids inhibit histamine release, improve oxygen utilization and improve liver functions. Ganoderic acids are also potent antioxidant free-radical scavengers.    Still another component, Beta-1, 3-glucan, helps regulate and stabilize blood sugar levels. Not only that, but these same components have been shown to have powerful anti-tumor properties.    Reishi is widely used in Asia to improve the cardiovascular system. It helps lower HDL (the "bad" cholesterol) and reduce excess fatty acids. It has been found to prevent and treat hardening of the arteries, angina and shortness of breath associated with coronary heart disease.    It has also been approved in Japan and China for the treatment of myasthenia gravis, a serious auto-immune disease. Besides that, it is commonly prescribed by MD’s in Japan for chronic bronchitis, memory loss, insomnia, hyperlipidemia and a whole range of degenerative diseases of the elderly, including disorders associated with senility.    Reishi is a superb anti-stress herb. Throughout history it has been used to bring balance into the lives of people who needed help in this department, and that means most everyone. Deep in antiquity, it was routinely used by mountain hermits, monks, Taoist adepts and spiritual seekers throughout Asia because it was believed to help calm the mind, ease tension, strengthen the nerves, strengthen memory, sharpen concentration, improve focus, build will power and, as a result, help build wisdom. That is why it was called the "Mushroom of Spiritual Potency" by these seekers. The people of Asia have never lost their faith in Reishi. They believe more than ever in Reishi's power to improve the quality of life by improving the inner life of a human being. All the scientific validation only explains the physical nature of Reishi, but it is the profound ability of Reishi to improve one's life on every plane that makes it so miraculous. Reishi is indeed calming and centering. Everyone who takes Reishi notices the peacefulness that seems to accompany its use. Many people are able to stop using chemical drugs. And Reishi seems to be cumulative, gradually strengthening the nerves and actually changing how we perceive life.    Reishi is a substance that builds health on all levels. It is the rarest of jewels in Nature. Life itself is based on the ability to adapt to the stresses, the attacks, the challenges that come our way every day. Reishi seems to provide an incredible resource of the full range of energies we need to meet these challenges. Reishi is indeed "the great protector," protecting us on every level---physically, immunologically, mentally, and spiritually. It helps us adapt to the world and provides additional power for us to achieve a superior level of life.  When we are so protected and so provided for, we can achieve things that otherwise would be impossible. That is whyReishi has been called the "herb of good fortune."   Traditional Function: Tonifies Jing, Qi and Shen, protects the liver and heart    Who can use it? Anyone   Concentration: 10:1   Specifications: 100 Capsules 500 mg each   Ingredients: Duanwood Reishi fruiting body extract   Other Ingredients: Vegetarian capsules (Pullulan caps 100% natural, water-soluble polysaccharide produced through a fermentation process; vegetable origin; non-GMO; no starch, preservative or chemical modifications; gluten free.), rice powder.    Usage: Take 3 capsules, 2 times per day or as directed by a healthcare professional   Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word –Compliance.

Duanwood Reishi Drops – 8 oz Super potent hydro-ethanolic extraction “Herb of the Immortals” Made with organically grown Reishi Remote Mountain grown Grown on natural forest logs Immune modulating Supports intelligence Supports Liver functioning Product Description Reishi mushroom is arguably the greatest tonic herb on earth. It is certainly one of the most revered herbal substances in Asia, ranking as one of the elite herbal supplements for the attainment of glowing health, longevity and spiritual attainment. It has maintained that reputation for at least 2,500 years, and its reputation and value are only increasing. Reishi, also known by its Chinese name of Ling Zhi or its botanical name of Ganoderma lucidum, is extremely safe and non-toxic. Duanwood™ Reishi is an organically cultivated variety of Reishi that has potent immune tonifying potency.This product is made from 100% Duanwood™ Reishi, and is rich in all of the components that make Reishi great. The Reishi is grown on logs cut wild from the forest. Duanwood Reishi is far more powerful than common hothouse (plastic bag) Reishi and Reishi mycelium, the most common sources of “reishi” raw materials on the American market. “Duan” means “original and authentic.” So “Duanwood” means “authentic wood” — the same exact wood Reishi grows on in nature. Duanwood Reishi™ is Dragon Herbs’ proprietary cultivated Reishi, grown in a remote high mountain forest on Wuyi Mountain, naturally irrigated with mountain spring water, in air as fresh as any on earth, in pure virgin mountain-forest soil. The logs are sustainably wild harvested. All this yields the most potent Reishi.Ron Teeguarden has been selling Reishi since 1976, which makes this his 40th anniversary in the trade. Ron has visited several dozen Reishi plantations in Asia. When Ron states that this is the best cultivated Reishi in the world, it is based on deep experience. Duanwood™ Reishi is made with 50% Reishis that are on the verge of going to spore and are at peak energy. The other 50% are mushrooms that have gone to spore the very day they are collected. Reishi spores have special qualities that enhance the overall benefits of this extract. Reishi spores are a profound Jing and immune tonic. *The terms Duanwood™ and Duanwood Reishi™ are trademarks of Dragon Herbs.Ingredients: Duanwood Reishi fruiting body.Traditional FunctionTonifies Qi, promotes circulation and tonifies Lungs, Spleen, Heart, Kidney and Liver.Who can use it?AdultsConcentration8:1Specifications8 fl. oz.Other IngredientsWater, Grain Alcohol (30% by volume)Dosage3-12 droppers per day as desired or as directed by your health care practitioner

Purple Reishi with Spores: Immune system support- Anti-inflammatory- Supports healthy bones, joints & connective tissue- Can help with injury recovery- Cardiovascular tonic- Promotes healthy liver function- Helps to stabilise emotions and calm the mind- Regenerative & restorative Nyishar Purple Reishi Extract is concentrated at a 1:2 ratio, meaning that one part mushroom has been macerated in two parts liquid solvent, creating a maximum potency extract. Firstly, the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense undergoes hydro-ethanolic dual-extraction, where both procedures are performed separately. The fruiting body is an incredibly rich source of fungal polysaccharides and beta-glucans, with a relatively low overall volume of triterpenes. This why the second process is a pure ethanol extraction of sporoderm-broken spores from Red Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), as the spores of this renowned species possess a very high percentage of bio-active triterpenes. In total three extracts are produced; hot water and ethanol extractions both fruiting body as well as the ethanol extraction of the sporoderm-broken spores. The hot water extraction is conducted within a pressurised environment to ensure that the water-soluble fraction of the medicine is collected without denaturing from the heat. Each of these extracts are then triple-filtered and combined to produce a complete medicine, offering a wide range pf therapeutic benefits.. Prior to extraction, the Purple Reishi fruiting body is cultivated in a protected mountain reserve in the south east of China, following traditional Di Tao practices. This is a centuries-old method that grows wild-simulated fungi in the same region that true wild specimens can be found. They are grown on the same wood from the same forest, immersed in exactly the same soil with the same micro-organisms, the weather is the same and the same water irrigates the cultivated mushrooms as well as the wild.

"In Germany one of the most frequently prescribed treatments for heart conditions is the herb Hawthorne (Crataegus orycantholdes). Germany, like many European countries, has a government agency called the Kommission E which produces official monographs guiding the safe prescription, usage and manufacture of herbal medicines. Amongst current monographs is one on hawthorne which states that it is useful for heart insufficiency (classes 1 and 2) by strengthening heart contractions, lowering blood pressure and lowering pulse rate, as well as improving physical work capacity and anaerobic capacity (the ability to continue functioning in low oxygen conditions).* The berry from hawthorn is widely employed for arrhythmia (irregular heartbeats, palpitations), high blood pressure and hardening of the arteries.* Clinical and laboratory research findings abound that hawthorne may be beneficial in treating heart conditions, including arrhythmia, angina, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol levels.* Clinical trials have also found benefits in the elderly with no heart conditions but simply deteriorating heart function with age (Hoffmann 1995).* Hawthorne is reported to be beneficial for heart complaints during menopause, anxiety and nervous disorders (Hobbs & Foster 1990).* There is limited preliminary research showing that hawthorne relieves muscle tension and promotes relaxation and sleep (Djumlija 1994) (Chang & But 1986).* These are factors that may be beneficial in heart conditions."
