NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH WITH GRASS FED COLOSTRUM * 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 our modern world, we unknowingly struggle to fulfill our lifestyle and nutritional needs in order to support and sustain a vibrant, disease-free life. We are now part of a world where viral and bacterial infections, allergies, and compromised immune systems are common problems for most of humanity. People struggle to heal from disease and struggle to recover from injury. I believe that the ultimate solution is a return to ancestral living (see About Us page). Whole food nutrient dense organs, glands, and the regular use of Grass Fed Colostrum can provide great benefit for those seeking targeted support in harmony with nature... the way our early ancestors did. Grass Fed Colostrum is a whole food dietary supplement that provides pure bovine colostrum — bioactive and nutritionally intact — with all of the specific vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and amino acids to fight disease, destroy pathogens, and promote human growth and cellular repair. Reclaim your primal birthright to ultimate health with Grass Fed Colostrum…  WE EVOLVED CONSUMING COLOSTRUM... Upon rolling hills of the lush pasture mother cow moans and moos calling to her soon to be born baby calf. She stands upright head tilted toward the heavens calling out in a deeper moo than usual. In the village center, some women hear the faraway call… they put down their weaving and hurry to alert the men. Swiftly, they gather their clay pots and the small tribe heads off across the pasture to greet their bovine companion and her newborn. Small children follow close behind, excited to see the birthing of the new calf and partake in the ritual of consuming the first milk. As they arrive, mother cow has just begun her birthing process, she moans, deeply bellows and within what seems like an instant her calf falls to the swaying grass with a thud. The tribe has been awaiting the birth of the calf for many weeks now. As the calf begins to suckle from one of mom's udders, the tribesmen place their clay pots beneath her other udders and the children watch eagerly as the golden liquid drips from each udder in abundance into their hand molded vessels. The children have witnessed the birth of many calves in their village and they remember the sweet taste of the golden gift.Little calf falls to sleep with a full belly... one of the tribesmen gathers more liquid gold, from mother cow, to fill his pot. He leaves the rest for the calf, and the tribe says a prayer of gratitude for the cow, the healthy calf, and the gift mother has bestowed upon them. They have an inner knowing that all life is sacred. They honor the new life by consuming the first milk, taking part in the celebration of birth, health, and abundance, a gift from the creator… Our ancient ancestors have had a symbiotic relationship with bovines for thousands of years…  Within a cave in Lascaux, France, using pulverized iron and charcoal, our ancestors painted images of cattle. These are the oldest cave paintings we know of dating back to over 20,000 years ago. (1) We have long been hunting cattle for food and for clothing, but we have also been collecting their milk for centuries… Many believe that even Neanderthals gathered and consumed ancient mammalian colostrum that allowed them to grow incredibly robust, with an incredible amount of muscle mass. The colostrum, milk, organs and fat from ancient mammals are believed to be what supported our ancestors to thrive in such extreme conditions, like the end of an ice age. (2) Our ancestors’ relationship with bovines allowed us to survive, thrive, and advance our species throughout history. Cattle played a vital role in our primitive agriculture and were at the epicenter of the foundation of our earliest civilizations. It’s no surprise that our ancestors cherished the first milk produced by mother cow, and derived great value from consuming it… GRASS FED COLOSTRUM -THE ULTIMATE SUPERFOOD; MOTHER NATURE'S FIRST FOOD  Colostrum is the primary milk, produced by every mammalian mother within the first few hours following her infant’s birth. It is often referred to as “liquid gold” not only because of its rich golden color tones but because it is the fundamental food that newborn mammals actually depend upon for their survival. This highly concentrated, vitamin, mineral, and enzyme entangled superfood provides each newborn with all of the building blocks necessary to develop a healthy immune system. In nature, every mammal receives colostrum as their first food and we too, can share and benefit from this primal birthright… Colostrum is one of the richest pillars of antibodies and amino acids, used for centuries to support immune and growth factors during the most significant stages of life... our earliest. Filled with, nutrient dense vitamins, minerals, and cofactors, Colostrum has truly set the foundation of fundamental support for mother nature's newest additions. Our infant brethren are not the only mammalians that have discovered the many benefits "liquid gold" has to offer. Grass Fed Colostrum contains compounds that help the immune system and muscle growth for even those in their wisest years. Colostrum can also support thymus function, reduce signs of aging, improve digestive health, heal wounds, reduce inflammation and improve muscle tone. (5) BENEFITS OF GRASS FED COLOSTRUM 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, consuming the colostrum, or first milk of a mother animal, was believed to provide the person with protection, strength and overall life-long health… Grass Fed Colostrum is an ancient solution for people struggling with conditions related to auto-immunity, leaky gut, and weak and fragile immune systems (including allergies). (5) Grass Fed Colostrum is a preventative food substance and dietary supplement that fights disease and destroys unwanted pathogens. It is not only essential to mammals in the wild, but its powerful immune supportive compounds strengthen our immune systems, help us to prevent diseases, and its growth factors assist in speedy recovery from injury, and increase our athletic performance. Many people look to ”like supports like" while neglecting the very fundamental nourishment that governs our biology, health, and well-being. It's no wonder that so many people successfully support immune system health conditions, boost their overall health and well being, increase their muscle mass and even generate a more youthful appearance by simply nourishing their bodies with nature’s first food.* ANCESTRAL WISDOM BACKED BY SCIENCE There are many ancestral records of praise given for colostrum throughout history. For thousands of years Ayurvedic medical practitioners have used colostrum for its healing benefits, and in India, cows are still considered sacred animals. Hieroglyphic texts show that colostrum was used by the Ancient Egyptians as well... There is a well-known image of Hathor, the cow goddess, and symbol of rebirth, where she is depicted suckling the Pharaoh, offering her colostrum as the elixir of metamorphosis to confer immortality upon the king. (3)   Our ancestors knew that colostrum was a sacred gift of ultimate nutrition, but only recently have we conducted modern research to uphold their ancestral wisdom. Colostrum is so intricate, scientists are still unraveling this golden web. Grass Fed Colostrum is a complex, whole-food ancestral nutrition source composed of the following(5): IMMUNE FACTORS Immunoglobulins (IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, IgM): The primary immune factors in colostrum. PRPs (Proline-rich Polypeptides): Shown to help regulate the thymus gland (the body's central command for the immune system). PRPs can both stimulate a weakened immune system and/or balance an overactive immune system, as is the case of many autoimmune diseases. Lactoferrin: An iron-binding protein with antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and many other properties. Lactoferrin has been used in the treatment of such diseases as cancer, HIV, herpes, chronic fatigue, candida albicans, and other infections. Glycoproteins: (protease and trypsin inhibitors): Protect the immune and growth factors in colostrum from destruction by the digestive juices in the stomach and intestinal tract. Lactalbumins: Research indicates tremendous possibilities that Lactalbumins can be highly effective against numerous forms of cancer and viruses. Lactalbumin has also been shown in vulnerable subjects to raise brain serotonin activity, reduce cortisol concentration, and improve mood under stress.  Cytokines, Interleukins, Interferon, and Lymphokines: Chemicals that are involved in cell-to-cell communication, antiviral and anti-tumor activity and regulation and intensity of immune responses. Cytokines: Increase T-cell activity and stimulate the production of immunoglobulins. One cytokine, interleukin-10, is a potent anti-inflammatory agent that has been shown to have a profound effect on pain relief. Interleukins have shown particular promise in fighting cancer. Lysozyme: Helps protect the body from bacterial infections and has actually been shown to destroy bacteria on contact. May be used as an effective topical antibiotic. GROWTH FACTORS: Epithelial Growth Factor (EGF): EGF is instrumental in protecting and maintaining the skin. Along with the other growth factors in colostrum, EGF can stimulate normal skin growth and repair cellular tissue. Insulin-like Growth Factor I and II (IGF-I & IGF-II): IGF I & II are the most abundant growth factors in colostrum. They affect how the body uses fat, protein, and sugar. IGF-I is one of the only substances known to stimulate the repair and growth of DNA and RNA, making it one of the most powerful anti-aging substances. IGF-I has been clinically proven to help increase lean muscle mass and may help regulate blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Transforming Growth Factors A & B (TGF A & B): TGF stimulates the proliferation of cells in connective tissue and assists in the formation of bone and cartilage. It is also showing promise as a therapeutic agent in bone and wound healing. TGF can help repair tissue and may support the development of the growth of the lining of the gut. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF): PDGF has been shown to help with cell division in connective tissue, smooth muscle, and fibroblasts. It may also assist in neuron survival and regeneration.  VITAMINS AND MINERALS: Colostrum is more than a supplement—it is the primary food for every newborn mammal. Its extraordinary combination of vitamins and minerals are naturally occurring and in perfect combination. AMINO ACIDS: Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins that are found in colostrum. VIRTUALLY NO LACTOSE: Lactose is present in trace amounts in colostrum. During the first 24 hours of production, the colostrum has the lowest levels of lactose. Most people with lactose intolerance can tolerate Grass Fed Colostrum with no side effects, and since the regular use of colostrum heals the intestinal wall it can reduce or eliminate many food allergies including allergies to lactose. Our ancient ancestors intuitively knew the benefits of bovine colostrum for newborns, as well as for people of all ages. Through modern studies, we now have the science to prove that bovine colostrum may provide us with greater benefits than human colostrum. This is due to a difference in the placenta of humans and cows. The human placenta allows the passage of immunoglobulin G (IgG), which is responsible for establishing systemic immunity, from mother to fetus. This means that a human baby is born with an immune system that is ready to defend the newborn against infection. The placenta of the cow, however, does not allow the passage of IgG from mother to fetus. When the calf is born, it is completely unprotected from infection and needs the IgG in the mother’s colostrum to survive. Thus, bovine colostrum contains predominantly IgG (over 85% of total immunoglobulin) while human colostrum contains predominantly immunoglobulin A (IgA), which is designed for local immunity and is intended to help the newborn’s immune system handle infections locally in the gut rather than establish systemic immunity. IgG, because it can pass immunity to a specific pathogen (disease-causing microorganism) from one individual to another, is therefore of much more benefit to humans past the stage of infancy.   MODERN DAY COLOSTRUMS For many generations, our ancestors have carried on the sacred ritual celebrating the birth of a calf by consuming colostrum. There are even a number of present-day cultures that carry on the traditions of our ancestors... Today in Kenya, Masai tribesmen drink bovine colostrum by the liter. Cows are considered their most important form of wealth, and they even sing songs of praise to colostrum in recognition of the health it brings them. (4) In England and Scandinavia, colostrum is a traditional tonic and folk remedy given to the entire family in the spring to keep them healthy for the entire year. The first milking of a cow following calving is traditionally made into a pudding called beestings, to celebrate the birth and promote good health. (5) Recently, farmers and scientists have rediscovered the power of this superfood and its healing benefits, resurfacing a hidden ancestral gem and presenting it back to the modern world. The process of collecting colostrum has greatly evolved since the days of gathering the golden liquid into clay pots... Our Grass Fed Colostrum retains ancestral properties that are otherwise absent in the modern world… Our Grass Fed Colostrum is collected within the first 24 hours of calving, as this is essential for obtaining the richest source. The calves' needs are always met first - this is crucial to the health and immunity of the calf, as well as the preservation of the herd. Cows produce more colostrum than the calf will drink, so there is an abundance to be shared and we are not taking anything away from the calf. Our Grass Fed Colostrum is 100% whole and intact, exactly as designed by nature, nothing added... nothing removed. It provides all the essentials to thrive... it's loaded with immune factors, growth factors, protective proteins, cell-signaling lipids and loads of fat-soluble activators. With such an elegant design, it makes me wonder why some modern-day manufactures fractionate their colostrum. That's right, someone got the idea to remove the nourishing fat in order to raise the percentages of "other" highly publicized components. I'm sorry to burst your bubble but fractionated colostrum is not in harmony with nature's 150 million year design. It should be noted that the fat in colostrum is not “just fat” per se. It contains an array of special-purpose lipids, such as gangliosides, which are essential for nerve health and brain function. Be wary of colostrum which dissolves easily in water because it likely has been defatted. A mother cow produces the richest colostrum immediately after she gives birth and continues to produce her golden gift for up to 24 hours, then her colostrum begins to transition to milk. Most modern-day colostrums are not collected, nor processed in a way to produce high efficacy. Many farmers will continue to collect "colostrum" from their cows for a few days after a calf is born. Any milk that is collected 24 hours after birth only contains a small amount of colostrum, and is not as potent as true first-day colostrum.  [ NOTE: We are currently working on a totally raw, completely cold processed (freeze-dried) colostrum product.

In other words, if you would consider preparing homemade liver and onions (or) a homemade organ meat paté for a little one, our supplements would be no different — it's just food, whole-food at that!In fact, many of our customers give our products to their babies, toddlers and teens... many email and post reviews about it, including one that notes that she gives her kid half the recommended dose for an anemia-related issue. Another reviewer remarks about our Thymus, at 1-2 capsules a day, is the only thing that works for her son's "angry" eczema. Even a new mom states that she opens the capsule and blends our liver into a homemade Weston A Price formula to give her baby a head start. As long as the little ones tolerate beef products without incident, you would just be giving a convenient source of ancestral nourishment.As it relates to dosing, most of our functional healthcare practitioner accounts suggest 1 capsule for every 15-20 pounds of body weight. I always tell people that I put the care, attention and quality assurance into my products as if I am giving them to my family... because I am! My young boys, wife and I all take the Beef Liver, Beef Organs and Bone Marrow every 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 few weeks to achieve the desired serving size of 6 capsules per day. If you know that you're ultra-sensitive to supplements, email us and we'll do everything we can to help. HIGH QUALITY ORGANS, GLANDS & COLOSTRUM Okay, you're convinced! You're going to start incorporating nose-to-tail nourishment 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, glands and colostrums 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 Should Come From Animals That Are Hormone, Pesticide & GMO-Free Should Also Be Ultra Pure...

GRASS FED COLOSTRUM SUMMARY In Summary: Mankind was never designed to eat processed foods, breathe polluted air, drink polluted water, or lead sedentary lives. Grass Fed Colostrum can help us restore some of our lost balance. Grass Fed Colostrum is a whole food, nature’s first food, and a primal birthright for all mammals. This first food is what gives us our immunity, and sets us up for lifelong health and longevity. It has shown great promise, for example, in treating autoimmune disorders, which can often be traced back to nutritional or environmental imbalances. Colostrum can help repair the damage we do to our gastrointestinal tracts from eating processed, fried and unhealthy foods. Grass Fed Colostrum is a wonderful solution and supplement for those suffering from weak immune systems, athletes, people recovering from injury, and people who are seeking to restore their natural health, strength, and beauty. It can help each and every one of us to lead a happier and healthier life. Reclaim your primal birthright with a true ancestral super food: Grass Fed Colostrum. [ FACT: 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. ] We care deeply about each and every aspect of our "seed to supplement" business... great love and gratitude go out to the souls of these beautiful creatures that sacrificed their lives so that we could be nourished.

— 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.* [1]  —  NOURISH YOUR WAY TO HEALTH & HAPPINESS WITH GRASS FED INTESTINE (W/ TRIPE) * 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 health is not wholly ours... many leading experts believe that pervasive gut issues (dysbiosis, sibo, leaky gut) have a lot to do with the problem. The solution is to restore and rebuild our gut health with proven anthropological ways that are backed by modern science... this includes the use of intestine and tripe. WE EVOLVED EATING INTESTINES & TRIPE According to the great John (Fire) Lame Deer, the eating of guts evolved into a contest. “In the old days we used to eat the guts of the buffalo, making a contest of it, two fellows getting hold of a long piece of intestines from opposite ends, starting chewing toward the middle, seeing who can get there first; that’s eating. Those buffalo guts, full of half-fermented, half-digested grass and herbs, you didn’t need any pills and vitamins when you swallowed those.”2 Beverly Hungry Wolf describes the preparation and consumption of a cow in The Ways of My Grandmothers, noting that her grandmother prepared the cow “as she had learned to prepare buffalo when she was young.” The lungs were not cooked, just sliced and hung up to dry. Intestines were also dried. Sapotsis or Crow gut is a Blackfoot delicacy made from the main intestine which is stuffed with meat and roasted over coals. Tripe was prepared and eaten raw, roasted or boiled. 3 INTESTINES Intestines are a profound source of intestine-specific building blocks, collagen / gelatin, glutamine and some organ-derived probiotics which are key for stabilizing, repairing and rebuilding a leaky gut.4 If you're like my tribe and you're into making homemade, simmered-with-love-for-3-days bone soup, try adding some pieces of intestines and tripe. You and your gut will be glad you did. Recent research shows that extracts of intestines provide growth stimulators that are needed to repair the lining of the intestinal wall. 5 TRIPE Tripe is the common term used to refer to the stomach of ruminating (grazing) animals including cows, buffalo and sheep. The Sioux of the Great Plains were known to boil buffalo meat and wild herbs with heated rocks in a buffalo paunch... afterwards, they ate the paunch too. Tripe was so revered in European culture that it spurred a tiff between William the Conqueror and Phillip I, the King of France. This is also a great source of gut-specific building blocks, micronutrients, collagen / gelatin, digestive enzymes and some organ-derived probiotics. 6,7 Many have reported that eating tripe has greatly improved their digestive system. 4,8 NOTE: Cows have these huge stomachs which are populated with billions upon billions of bacteria, which begin breaking down the cellulose in the cell walls of plant fibers. The first three stomachs, the rumen, reticulum, and omasum, are concerned with breaking down the plant fibers in preparation for digestion. The work is mainly done by bacteria. True digestion finally occurs in the fourth stomach, the abomasum. Glands produce hydrochloric acid, pepsin and lipase which finish breaking down the food into all its constituent nutrients.9 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 Intestines (w/ Tripe) is a whole food and dietary supplement that provides pure bovine intestine (w/ bovine tripe) that's teeming with gut-specific building blocks, gelatin, glutamine and of course, organ-derived probiotics to nourish and support our own gut and digestive health.* 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.

BENEFITS OF GRASS FED INTESTINES (W/ TRIPE) 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 nourish urinary ailments, boost vitality and support overall kidney health... Pancreas was fed to people with digestive and endocrine problems... spleen was fed to people with immune and blood deficiencies...1 intestines, stomach (tripe) and other gelatinous parts provided concentrated amounts of connective tissue, gelatin / collagen, probiotics and other gut-specific proteins that are now absent from the modern diet. 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.10 INTESTINES (W/ TRIPE) & LIVER — THE ULTIMATE SUPERFOODS Whether from grassfed beef, bison, or lamb, grass fed liver is one of the most nutrient-dense, health promoting foods you could possibly eat. Hunters all over the world, for uncounted thousands of years, would eat the raw livers of the animals they killed. Lions and other predatory animals will also eat the liver first. Grass fed liver is particularly rich in vitamin B12, vitamin A, choline, folate and and many other powerful nutrients that most people are deficient in. Grass fed liver also contains compounds that help the human liver function better. Other substances in liver reduce fatigue, improve digestive health and support brain function.*1 Many people look to targeted support "like heals like" while neglecting the very fundamental nourishment that governs our biology, health and well-being. It's no wonder that so many people successfully support organ and glandular related health conditions (thyroid, adrenal and gut included) by just nourishing their bodies with the fundamentals — Liver and Bone Marrow.*   ANCESTRAL WISDOM BACKED BY SCIENCE 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.*11 Our early ancestors knew this, which is why their traditional diets included the frequent and nourishing consumption of nose-to-tail nutrients. — Based on the ancient ancestral wisdom that "like supports like." Consuming intestines and tripe may nourish and support our own gut health.* — — Provides all the building blocks... gut specific proteins, peptides, enzymes & cofactors along with molecular biodirectors (DNA instructions) to code and/or express the building of healthy tissue.* — — Vitality... rich in glandular derived gelatin, glutamine, probiotics, B12 and selenium to support gut health, energy, thyroid and immune health.* — GRASS FED INTESTINES (W/ TRIPE) CONTAINS... Healthy Gut Building Blocks... Gut Specific Proteins, Peptides, Enzymes & Cofactors Molecular Biodirectors — DNA Blueprints To Build and Repair Healthy Tissue Collagen / Gelatin, Glutamine, Animal Derived Probiotics  B12, Choline, Selenium, Zinc, Manganese & Phosphorus NOTE: For intensive support, consider reviewing the life’s work of Dr. John F. Prudden... he showed that the use of bovine tracheal cartilage (BTC) had unique and powerful effects on healing, immune conditions and other life-threatening conditions considered to be treatment-resistant to conventional therapies.* Colostrum plays a significant role in gut health too. GRASS FED INTESTINES (W/ TRIPE) SUPPORTS...  Optimal Gut Health Based On "Like Supports Like" * Leaky Gut, Digestive Issues, Gut Related Conditions * Vitality, Energy & Thyroid Health * (high in B12 and selenium)  NOTE: Many First Nations butcher the moose at the slaughter site and return to camp with tokens for the tribe... the tokens returned to camp, came from the abdominal cavity, the heart and lower intestine, and two types of fat, called wiis. 12 SUGGESTED USE (6 CAPSULES A DAY) Our Grass Fed Intestines (w/ Tripe) is a whole food dietary supplement that provides 100% pure bovine intestines with 100% pure bovine tripe. This supplement 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. 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 (all those gut health and digestion benefits). GUT NUTRITION [ANCESTRAL NUTRITION] Many gut and digestive issues have a deficiency characteristic such as low stomach acid (80% of Americans), low pancreatic enzymes, low bile and/or low liver function. I'm not saying that all do, just a lot! Low Acid — Restrict liquids with meals... most Americans actually have LOW stomach acid so stop diluting it with water during dinner... if that's you, also consider adding Betaine HCL and/or Apple Cider Vinegar to produce adequate stomach acid to get the job done right (go here to learn more). A ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can help address the root cause. Low Enzymes — Consider eating pancreas or supplementing with pancreatic enzymes to help... a struggling thyroid, heavy metal exposure and pancreatic insufficiency can all suppress enzymes. A ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can help address the root cause. Low Bile — Our early ancestors used bile from the gallbladder... it was sprinkled on the meat and used as a condiment as we might use mustard today. Word has it that bile did a lot for the taste of liver. If you can't do this, consider supplementing with ox bile. A ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can help address the root cause. Low Liver — Most Americans have non-alcoholic fatty liver that causes a sluggish liver and sluggish bile... supporting your own liver health with lots of choline from egg yolks and eating grass fed liver will do wonders. A ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can help address the root cause. By now you know the theme... a standard, low-ish carb ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can fix most of these issues over time. For serious gut and digestive issues, a high fat, moderate protein, lowish-carb ketogenic / paleo / primal diet can be remarkably therapeutic (see below). Ketosis is a high fat, moderate protein, low carbohydrate way of eating. Have a look at what I eat but be careful with too much protein as this can kick you out of ketosis. TYPICAL KETO — 75% healthy fats, 20% protein and 5% carbohydrates. OUR TYPICAL 1ST MEAL IS A DELICIOUS SHAKE AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS... Wallaby Organic / Grass fed yogurt (2 cups or 150g) NOW Brand MCT oil (1-2 tablespoons; up to 30g- dose to tolerability). NOTE: MCT always produces elevated ketones. Organic raw virgin coconut oil or organic ghee (2 to 3 tablespoons or 30 to 45g) Organic almond butter (2 tablespoons or 30g) Organic unrefined red palm oil (1 tablespoon or 15g) Grassfed Ancestral Collagen / Gelatin (10-20g)  Himalayan sea salt -- 1/4 tsp (2 to 3g)  Organic cinnamon -- 2g Organic instant coffee -- 2g (only when seeking variety) Organic / Grassfed vanilla protein powder (1 scoop) — I like Bluebonnet Grassfed Protein Organic banana (optional when not doing strict keto or if sleep if affected by too low carb consumption) Organic / Pasture raised raw eggs (4 to 6 large eggs) Organic raw pastured-raised milk (1 cup or 150g)... raw is best but Whole Kalona Brand Milk is a good second option if you don't do raw milk. If you don't tolerate milk, find an alternative.  This shake takes me a whopping 15 minutes to make... It's super convenient... and, it's down right delicious. If I don't make a shake, I will have a bunch of pasture-raised eggs (8 or so) that are smothered in a massive amount of butter topped with crunchy sea salt, a side of avocado, nitrate-free, sugar-free bacon and a dollop of homemade sour cream. Are you kidding me... don't even try to tell me that your current breakfast is better in taste nor in health.  OUR TYPICAL SECOND MEAL IS MOSTLY COOKED... IT'S HOT... IT'S BETTER THAN ANY RESTAURANT FOOD... IT LOOKS LIKE THIS... Homemade Bone Soup (simmered for two to three days with tons of marrow) Serving or Kimchi Organic Avocado (optional: top with fish eggs, lemon juice and sea salt) Grass fed butter or Ghee (2 tablespoons) Salad of dark leafy greens (when in season) w/ 2 tablespoons of organic, fresh pressed olive oil and sea salt (I get mine from Apollo Olive Oil) Grass fed organs (6 - 9 oz of various animals, various organs) Organic almond butter (2 tablespoons) mixed with organic raw coconut oil (2 tablespoons) Organic banana with raw local honey (optional: when not doing strict keto or if sleep or gut if affected by too low carb consumption) 100% Cacao block for dessert We generally carb reload on the weekends with plenty of sweet potatoes, raw local honey, the occasional sorghum and various in-season fruits. For gut / digestive repair, I don't suggest massive refeeds like we do... stay the course until you're better, then you can do this. We also do a twenty-four to thirty hour fast on Sundays... it's not as bad as it sounds. We eat an early dinner as we normally would on early Saturday evening... skip our first meal on Sunday, and eat an amazing fish-based dinner (usually wild caught sardines with wild caught fish eggs) with the entire tribe on Sunday. Once a quarter, we do a 5-day water only fast (adults only). SUPPLEMENTS THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE Magnesium... transdermal magnesium oil applied to feet before bed and oral magnesium. Vitamin D3  - only when not able to get adequate sun exposure (nor) fish eggs NOTE: About 75 percent of people with IBS have insufficient vitamin D, and about 70 percent see improvement when taking vitamin D 13 Vitamin K2 - only when not regularly eating my fermented veggies, sauerkraut, kimchi or natto  Grass Fed Intestines (w/ Tripe) Grass Fed Liver (or) Bovine Tracheal Cartilage (w/ Liver) Grass Fed Bone Marrow UVEX Glasses Honorable Mentions For Targeted Support - may use Thymus or Spleen for allergies or to boost immune system... Kidney for kidney and urinary support... Brain if the brain need a boost... Bovine Tracheal Cartilage to recover an injury or for intensive gut support... Thyroid in the winter when little to no carbs are available... Adrenal if adrenal support is required... you get the picture.  Keep in mind that my tribe and I eat a very nutrient dense diet. We consume the whole animal just as our ancestors did... That's right, we eat the liver, kidney, pancreas, spleen, heart, thymus, bones, tendons, ligaments and more... and we eat this way every day (except on vacation we take extra Liver, Beef Organs and Bone Marrow supplements). We love our bone broth (this is my wife's specialty), and we eat tons of pastured eggs. Wife is awesome enough to sprout chickpeas for us. Then, she turns half of the batch into the best homemade hummus in the world. Super high in folate (NOT SYNTHETIC FOLIC ACID, big diff)!! You never know, ancestral eating patterns (i.e. cycling back and forth between paleo, ketosis and fasting) could easily be the missing link to the energy, mood, memory and mental performance benefits that we are all after. This is how our early ancestors ate. Start eating like this to build your biological resilience. If you'd like to know exactly how my tribe and I live to support optimal health, go to our "About Us" page and read the entire page.  HIGH QUALITY ORGANS & GLANDS Okay, you're convinced! You're going to start incorporating nose-to-tail nourishment 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, glands and cartilage 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) FOR EVERYONE 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, provides stem cells, bovine cartilage, glycosaminoglycans and 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. GRASS FED GRASS FED INTESTINES (W/ TRIPE) SUMMARY Our genome has evolved with the nourishment of nose-to-tail dining since the beginning of time. Grass Fed Intestines (w/ Tripe) is a whole food and dietary supplement that provides 100% pure bovine intestines and 100% pure bovine tripe containing powerful building blocks and biodirectors along with high amounts of collagen / gelatin, glutamine, B12 and selenium. Based on the concept of "like supports like," Grass Fed Intestines (w/ Tripe) may nourish and support our own gut health.* Not all organs and glands are the same. Look for the highest quality bovine intestines and tripe... It should come from pasture-raised, grass-fed and grass-finished animals 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. [ FACT: 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 programme is in place to provide comprehensive monitoring. ] We care deeply about each and every aspect of our "seed to supplement" way of life... great love and gratitude goes out to the souls of our animal brethren, such beautiful creatures that were sacrificed so that we could be nourished. THE PROBIOTIC DISCUSSION... Certainly, not all organisms survive after being harvested, ground and freeze-dried... but some do! And yes, the longer the tripe is frozen, the more of them die off. And since many of these organisms are actually dependent on each other for survival by utilizing each other’s byproducts, the deaths cause a chain reaction and results in the death of more and more organisms. The take home message here is that our DNA evolved with this stuff... our early ancestors consumed intestines and stomach straight out of the carcass and we got our fair share of microbes from using these as cooking vessels too — some do survive! There are all sorts of different types of microbes in the rumen, such as fungi, bacteria and single-celled eukaryotic organisms called protozoans. There are also some archaea, which are ancient microorganisms that live and survive in extreme cold and extreme heat environments.  If you need a good probiotic, you'd be better off doing what our tribe does... eat your fermented veggies like kimchi, sauerkraut or try some natto. If you need targeted support for gut health that's rich in gut-specific building blocks, collagen / gelatin, glutamine with some organ-derived probiotics, then our Grass Fed Intestines (w/ Tripe) sounds like the perfect match!  The second stomach was washed well and eaten raw, but certain parts were usually boiled or roasted and the rest dried. “Another delicacy is at the very end of the intestines—the last part of the colon. You wash this real good and tie one end shut. Then you stuff the piece with dried berries and a little water and you tie the other end shut. You boil this all day, until it is really tender and you have a Blackfoot Pudding.” Samuel Hearne, an explorer writing in 1768, describes the preparation of caribou: “Of all the dishes cooked by the Indians, a beeatee, as it is called in their language, is certainly the most delicious that can be prepared from caribou only, without any other ingredient. It is a kind of haggis, made with the blood, a good quantity of fat shred small, some of the tenderest of the flesh, together with the heart and lungs cut, or more commonly torn into small shivers; all of which is put into the stomach and toasted by being suspended before the fire on a string. . . . it is certainly a most delicious morsel, even without pepper, salt or any other seasoning.”— www.westonaprice.org Sources and References  Fishman, Stanley A.

Colostrum LD Powder :: 16 oz. (454 grams) 16 oz. colostrum powder Colostrum-LD® is the only substance clinically proven to heal and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome. Most physicians agree that Leaky Gut Syndrome is a primary cause of chronic disease. The LD Difference: Colostrum-LD® remains biologically active at the cellular level with maximal effectiveness (up to 4X more effective than regular colostrum). Colostrum-LD® is the only colostrum certified to contain a minimum of 25-30% Immunoglobulins, 1.5% Lactoferrin, 1.5% Growth Factors and 4.5-5% PRPs (colostrum’s most powerful bioactive component). Sovereign Laboratories takes a great product (colostrum) and makes it a superior product (Colostrum-LD®). Our proprietary in-house Liposomal Delivery (LD) system is an applied coating which allows colostrum to readily dissolve in liquids and ensures the colostrum will bypass digestion; will be transported through the bowel wall; will circulate throughout the body; will reach the organs and cells; and remain bioavailable at the cellular level. “Liposomal Delivery makes colostrum (and other nutrients) up to 1,500 % more bioavailable” (Robert R. Milne, MD); this makes Colostrum-LD® the most effective colostrum available. Without LD, colostrum loses most of its effectiveness. The LD Difference means that colostrum products from Sovereign Laboratories do what they say. Sovereign Laboratories stands behind its money back guarantee. Expect Results: Colostrum does not oxidize in storage. Colostrum is not digested (digestion destroys colostrum’s bioactivity). Colostrum components are delivered through the bowel wall into the blood stream to reach all organs and cells wherever needed. Colostrum components transport through the cell wall to assist in RNA and DNA repair; stem cell initiation and differentiation; facilitation of cellular growth and repair; infection prevention; and identification of damaged and diseased cells. COLOSTRUM-LD® has been shown to help: Boost, balance, and maintain unsurpassed immune function Eliminate harmful pathogens and fight infection Prevent and eliminate diarrhea from infectious causes Suppress over-reactivity to environmental pathogens and toxins Protect and heal GI and stomach lining (Leaky Gut Syndrome) Increase Natural Killer (NK) cell activity Increase muscle strength and stamina; speed recovery after exercise or injury; burn fat; and maintain blood glucose homeostasis Provide anti-aging benefits Effective Use Colostrum is a food, not a drug or medicine. It is safe, non-toxic, non-allergenic and has no side effects. Bovine Colostrum is safe, non-toxic and can be consumed in any quantity without side effects or drug interactions. It contains special enzymes that prevent its immune and growth factors from being digested. An article written by Robert Preston, ND, President of the International Institute of Nutritional Research, states, "Bovine colostrum is safe. Colostrum contains an unprecedented combination of nutritional factors with which to fortify the immune system. It is so harmless, it has been prepared by Nature as the first food for infants, intended as their total diet for the first 24 hours." He further states, "It would be hard to imagine any nutritional substance more natural or beneficial than colostrum. It is safe for internal consumption by children, adults and animals." How much should be taken and how often? You should take enough colostrum to obtain results you desire; this amount varies from person to person. If you are not seeing results with colostrum, you are not taking enough. For healthy adults who want to maintain a healthy immune system and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome, 2 capsules (or 1 teaspoon powder) twice daily are recommended. For anyone whose has compromised health situation, GI or digestive health issues, auto-immune conditions, inflammatory conditions, cancer, heart disease, is recovering from an injury, wants to get rid of allergies, or detects a cold or flu coming on, 4 capsules (1 tablespoon powder) twice a day are recommended. For athletic use and anti-aging, 10-20 grams daily optimizes growth hormone levels which translates to 2 heaping tablespoons of powder twice a day. The dosage can then be lessened to a maintenance level as long as it continues to produce results. Colostrum has a sixteen hour half-life. It should be taken twice a day on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. Colostrum's benefits are cumulative. The longer and more consistent the use, the greater the benefits. Most people feel better right away, yet about one in five first-time users experience a detox event or "healing crisis," consisting of flu-like symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache coughing up phlegm, skin rashes and low-grade fever. These are called Herxheimer reactions and typically last only a couple of days. The body is ridding itself of long-accumulated toxins, locked in the body's tissues and fat deposits that have suppressed the immune system and encouraged disease. This is normal, and not a reason to stop taking colostrum. You should reduce your dosage to a minimum amount (one capsule per day, or 1/2 teaspoon) until the body adjusts, and then increase your dosage as desired to achieve optimal results. Colostrum is not just for adults, and remarkable results have been observed in infants and children. Colostrum's test is in the undeniable health of children who receive colostrum and breast milk from their mothers. These children experience less illness, increased mental acuity and have stronger, more vibrant growth. If infants are not breastfed or not breastfed for at least two years, colostrum supplementation is an option. Because children have a tendency to catch colds and illness from peers in daycare and school, colostrum supplementation in these situations will help immensely. Colostrum powder tastes great and is advisable for children who are unable to swallow colostrum capsules. We can't forget our beloved pets. Veterinary use of bovine colostrum with aging and/or ailing animals (mammals) has proven to be very beneficial. Its ability to halt disease is well documented; aging pets with arthritis or joint problems are particularly responsive to colostrum. And most pets love the taste of colostrum. It’s important for each one of us to take responsibility for our own health. Like the “Sovereign” in our company name, we believe in individuals taking “sovereign” charge of their health and well-being. If you are convinced by claims, testimonials, or even research stating that a product will stop disease, you must make certain that there is also supporting research showing that the product does not destroy body tissue, interact with other drugs or supplements, or create harmful side effects in the process. Colostrum-LD® is the only clinically proven substance which heals and prevents Leaky Gut Syndrome and does not cause harm to the body. Effectiveness of Colostrum This depends on its quality and how it is processed! Research has shown that colostrum which is water-soluble is more easily assimilated. If you are taking colostrum which is only partially soluble, you will not get the full benefits. Colostrum which has been frozen cannot be made water soluble and it must be specially micronized in order to be soluble. Simply empty a capsule into a glass of water, cover and shake. It should dissolve quickly. Tests on several different brands of colostrum have shown that colostrum processed with excessive heat will lose most of its biological activity. This is especially true of colostrum tablets. The heat generated when tablets are formed is so high that it severely compromises colostrum's efficacy. Colostrum that comes from pasture fed herds, who eat healthy green grass produce better milk and colostrum than cows that are fed processed foods. It is also very important that colostrum is standardized by taking it from large numbers of healthy cows. This insures the maximum possible amount of immune factors. Colostrum that is not standardized should be avoided. Some colostrum is manipulated to boost immunoglobulin levels. Recent research, however, has shown that higher percentages of immunoglobulin actually diminish colostrum's effectiveness in combating infection. Therefore, our conclusion is that the most effective colostrum is that which is gently processed, but otherwise left with the balance of its immune and growth factors as nature intended. Let the Buyer Beware! Not all colostrum is processed in accordance with these strict guidelines. Currently no standards exist for the collection and processing of colostrum. Some colostrum contains inexpensive "filler" products such as whey by-products, which severely reduce its effectiveness. Also, if the colostrum is not collected during the first 24 hours after the birth of the calf, it will be missing many of the important growth factors. To help you assess different brands of colostrum, below is a summary of the standard you should look for in high quality colostrum: It should be full water-soluble. It should come only from certified healthy, grade A diary cows (after the needs of the calf are met). It should be collected only from the first milking after the second birth, to ensure maximum biological activity. It should come only from cows which are pasture-fed, and certified to be hormone, pesticide and antibiotic free. It should be filtered and homogenized to break down the long-chain proteins (immunoglobulins) for better assimilation. It should be mixed with the colostrum from thousands of other cows to standardize and maximize the immune factors. It should be processed to remove excess, unwanted fat, and dried with added heat. This process is significantly more costly and time-consuming than regular high-temperature processing. It should be laboratory tested for E.Coli, salmonella, pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics, other pathogens, a verification of high platelet count (a sign of active "friendly" intestinal bacteria) and immunoglobulin content. There are only a few producers of bovine colostrum which meet the above standards. Read labels carefully and investigate the company. Another way to find a high-quality colostrum is to contact the Center for Nutritional Research (CNR), www.icnr.org, an independent, non-profit research organization. The CNR can provide, free of charge, a list of manufacturers whose colostrum meets our guidelines. Benefits of Colostrum LD Purpose: This is life's first food. It was designed by nature to bring perfect health. It was and is the most important GI health combination of powerful healing and immune components ever; or it would not have been your first meal. Prevents and heals gut permeability (holes in our gut) caused by toxins, pathogens (bacteria), acidic drinks, pain medications and pharmaceuticals and environmental hazards. (The primary cause of chronic disease) Helps prevent toxins from entering the body Repairs, optimizes and activates immune function (especially in the GI tract) Stimulates the repair and regeneration of all body tissue and enhances cellular communication and nutritional intake Increases energy and stamina, lean muscle mass, activates fat metabolism, and returns our body to vibrant health The most important food for health and healing or your first meal would have been something else! Fountain Of Youth The New England Journal of Medicine (the most prestigious medical journal in the world) reported that the most effective means to stop or slow the aging process would be to replace the hormonal factors that cause us to grow normal cellular structures in the body. After maturity (between the ages of 16-20), the level of growth hormone that our body naturally produces dwindles. We notice this as gravity, unmercifully, takes its toll. Our bodies lose muscle tone and elasticity of the skin, causing us to sag and wrinkle. We lose bone mass and shrink, while our hands, feet, nose and ears get larger. We would all do almost anything to stop this aging process but we may want to think twice before we consider isolated hormone replacement sources and are not identical to the hormones made by the body. Synthesized and isolated hormones can produce body imbalances and side effects that can be life threatening! There is another answer. A natural answer. Colostrum's perfectly balanced combination of immune and growth factors, administered in human clinical trials with aged subjects, safely increases lgF-1 to pre-puberty levels, producing increased muscle weight and strength. IfF-1 and GH in colostrum also has been shown to tone muscles, melt body fat, return elasticity to the skin and increase bone density. Colostrum, life's first food, has given those of use that are growing older, real hope that there may be a Fountain of Youth after all! Everything in life springs forth from DNA - flesh, bones, hormones, nervous system, a baby's first word, the euphoria that comes with first love, the ability to learn to speak a foreign language. All of this originates from DNA. This silent intelligence of life, DNA, attracts the chemicals it needs to form new DNA which is an essential part of cell division. DNA is also able to manufacture RNA, which is nearly identical to DNA and participates as its active counterpart. RNA (the active intelligence) is the traveler sent to produce the proteins needed to build and repair the body. Dr. Benjamin Frank, whose research on youth and aging, showed RNA to be one of our most critical anti-aging factors. His research showed that lgf-1 (found naturally in colostrum) is one of the only substances known to stimulate the growth and repair of these key nucleic acids, DNA and RNA. Colostrum has been shown to help maintain blood glucose levels to serve the brain. Also, IgF-1 and GF, some of the smallest particles known, have been shown to cross the blood brain barrier to help with nerve synapses in the brain, enhancing mental acuity and increasing serotonin levels, to brighten our moods. And just possibly, as we age, this might be one of the most important reasons to take a serious look at colostrum. The aging process is accelerated if our natural immune defenses are depleted through infection and toxic assault. Colostrum can help by strengthening and modulating our immune function. Colostrum’s unique immune and growth factors cannot be obtained through an other source. It is unequaled in stimulating cellular growth and repair and promoting optimal immune function. It can best be summed up by a statement about colostrum from the world’s leading medical anthropologist and New York Times best selling medical author: Robert Heinerman, PhD “No greater promise of health can be made for a natural product so beloved as this.

A Formulation that Works* Based on the science of the Gut-Skin Axis, doctor- developed Gut to Glow™  is formulated with four powerhouse ingredients to help you feel and look more vibrant.* Lactobacillus reuteri LRDR™  Oxiceutics 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.* Marine Collagen The highly concentrated marine collagen hydrolysates in Gut to Glow™ are especially enriched in the dipeptides shown to firm skin by supporting collagen density and skin moisture and elasticity. It aims to support improved texture and plumper looking skin.* Hyaluronic Acid Oxiceutics Hyaluronic Acid taken orally supports skin hydration and the hyaluronic content in the dermal layer for smoother and more radiant skin. This supports the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Astaxanthin  With antioxidant properties, Astaxanthin is the most potent carotenoid known, with as much as 100-fold greater antioxidative effect compared to beta carotene. Suggested Use: 120 capsules (30-day supply), per bottle. Take 4 capsules a day. Note:  Oxiceutics do not recommend taking Gut to Glow if you are trying to get pregnant, are pregnant, or are nursing.

Oxiceutics' proprietary L. reuteri LRDR™  is included in Gut to Glow primarily to support gut balance.* Lactobacillus reuteri is a super microbe that has the ability to take up residence not only in the colon but also the upper GI tract. Can I combine Gut to Glow with my current collagen? You can combine or you can replace. Clinical studies show that much lower doses of marine sourced collagen hydrolysates are needed compared to other sources, as it is especially enriched in the bioactive peptides needed for skin and health benefits. How long will it take before I start to see improvements in my skin? An increase in moisture, and smoother skin within several weeks of starting is often reported. Reduced appearance of wrinkles typically becomes noticeable after 8 weeks. Of course, results can vary due to baseline skin condition and other factors. Remember, it's taken a while to get here, so patience on the journey is key. Typically, supplements take around 3 months to experience most benefits. Oxiceutics' expectation is that you will begin seeing gradual improvements sooner than that. For best results, stay consistent with taking 4 capsules/day. Are there interactions with other medications? We always recommend that you check with your health care professional prior to starting something new. However, as Gut to Glow provides nutrients that our bodies should be producing or obtaining from diet, the likelihood of an adverse reaction to any of the 4 ingredients is extremely rare. Why do probiotics often cause GI disturbances when you start taking them? I have noticed feeling a little gassy. Is this from Gut to Glow? Probiotics can cause GI disturbances as you are initially introducing good bacteria into your system, in an effort to support gut balance. While the "bad" bacteria is leaving, bloating, gas and other GI disturbances can be temporarily experienced. Lactobacillus reuteri is an important and powerful microbe that is, in a sense, “cleaning” your gut environment. It is totally normal to experience some gas and possible diarrhea at the beginning as it introduces changes into the intestinal microbiome. This is good news and will typically dissipate once your microbiome is used to the supplementation. If there is a probiotic microbe in Gut to Glow capsules, do they need to be refrigerated? There is no harm in refrigerating the supplements, but it is not necessary. They should, however, be stored in a cool, dry environment, out of the direct sun and with the jar kept closed to keep moisture away from the capsules. Can men take Gut to Glow? Absolutely! All the components of Gut to Glow are perfectly compatible with male physiology. Many of the same benefits that females experience can also be experienced by males. Why does the package say that Gut to Glow is best taken with a meal containing fats or oils? Fats and oils can assist with the absorption of the carotenoid component, astaxanthin. This could be olive oil in a salad, butter, a fatty meat or fish, or other oils or fats. If you include a fish oil supplement in your daily routine, taking it simultaneously with Gut to Glow is another option to assist with astaxanthin absorption. I read that hyaluronic acid taken orally is not digestible by humans. Is this true? Yes, it is true. Yet hyaluronic acid taken orally has been demonstrated to increase skin moisture and exert other healthy skin benefits. Although humans lack the digestive enzymes to break down hyaluronic acid, microbes in your colon break the hyaluronic acid molecules down into small fragments that are readily absorbed. We are therefore reliant on intestinal microbes for the absorption of hyaluronic acid. What is a nutricosmetic? A nutricosmetic marries the fields of nutrition and cosmetics. It is a nutritional supplement ingested to benefit skin, hair, or nails. Nutricosmetics support a beauty that starts from within. How do I take Gut to Glow? Oxiceutics recommend taking 2 capsules in the morning and 2 in the evening, with a fat containing meal. Some people prefer to take all 4 together. Consistency in taking 4 daily is most important, so please follow what works best with your daily regimen. What allergens are in Gut to Glow? Gut to Glow contains marine collagen sourced from fish. Gut to Glow is made without milk, egg, shellfish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts, or soy. Is this safe to take while I am trying to get pregnant, pregnant or nursing? Oxiceutics recommend not taking Gut to Glow if you are trying to get pregnant, are pregnant, or are nursing. If I miss a dose, should I double up? If you forget to take one of your morning doses, it is fine to double up in the evening. There is no need to exceed 4 capsules a day, as Gut to Glow is formulated in scientifically backed amounts of each ingredient (in 4 capsules a day) for maximum benefit. I currently take a probiotic. Should I continue taking that? There is no reason to discontinue use as different microbes provide different benefits. As important as Lactobacillus reuteri LRDR™  is, it is important to take all steps in supporting gut balance. Why do I need to take 4 capsules/day? Oxiceutics optimised formulation is based on science. Studies have supported the amounts that Oxiceutics recommend in a daily dose for the most efficacious benefits. How long will one jar of Gut to Glow last? Each jar is a 30-day supply. There are 120 capsules in a jar and we recommend taking 4/day.

Maximize the strength of any probiotic with the worlds's first supplemented prebiotic “PHAGE." Phage or Bacteriophages are microscopic proteins that target and devour certain harmful bacteria.* When Floraphage dismantles bad bacteria within the gut, nutrients are released turning bad bacteria in the upper GI tract into high-quality food for good bacteria. Based on lab testing with several popular probiotic supplements, this remarkable prebiotic was able to increase the growth rate of supplemented probiotics by 24x compared to control.* Avoid uncomfortable symptoms such as gas and bloating that come along with standard prebiotics and improve the performance of any probiotic formula.* Floraphage for Digestive Health The human digestive tract contains trillions of microorganisms that constantly compete for space and nutrients. This system can be highly susceptible to attacks from harmful bacteria, which can result in digestive discomfort and a weakened immune system. It is therefore important for beneficial bacteria to outperform these harmful bacteria so that proper intestinal balance and overall good health can be achieved. Unfortunately the opposite can sometimes occur, in which aggressive strains of harmful bacteria outgrow and consume more resources than the beneficial bacteria. This phenomenon can be associated with poor health, abdominal discomfort, and bacterial infections. To combat these intestinal imbalances and their damaging effects, Floraphage has been developed to support the restoration and maintenance of the highly sensitive digestive ecosystem. Why Floraphage? Floraphage was designed to support the proliferation of beneficial bacteria throughout the gastrointestinal tract in order to promote optimal digestive and immune health. Floraphage was tested in conjunction with four popular probiotic supplements to determine its ability to increase the growth rate for each respective product. The graph on the right demonstrates the average increase in CFU activity, the measurement of probiotic bacteria growth, for the four products was 2400%, versus control (growth without the use of Floraphage). Floraphage is an excellent product to take in conjunction with a probiotic to maximize the benefits of supplemented beneficial bacteria. It is also helpful for those that do not take probiotics in order to maximize indigenous bacteria growth. What is Floraphage? Floraphage is a bacteriophage (or phage), which is a microscopic protein that can target and destroy one particular type of bacteria. Floraphage is selectively-antimicrobial, specifically attaching to only harmful bacteria. Once a phage has attached itself, these “bad” bacteria essentially burst open, releasing more phage and nutrients, known as prebiotics, for our good bacteria to feed on. Floraphage can only attach itself to harmful bacteria, and can never enter or harm good bacteria or human cells. Phages are everywhere, in our food, in the water we drink, on and in our bodies, and pretty much anywhere else imaginable. They are actually the most abundant naturally occurring organisms on earth. Phages have been safely used for over 90 years in the food supply and as a therapy for antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria. Floraphage is the first dietary supplement formula to utilize these amazing microscopic proteins. How Does Floraphage Work? Floraphage specifically targets bad bacteria and destroys their cell wall, releasing nutrients that provide good bacteria with the food and space that are needed for substantial growth in the digestive tract. In doing so, Floraphage reverses the growth pattern of certain bad bacteria and allows good bacteria to proliferate in their place. Since Floraphage forces the release of nutrients from bad bacteria, it inherently acts as a two-phase super-prebiotic. During the first phase, Floraphage selectively attacks certain bacteria, creating space along the intestinal wall. The second phase occurs organically when these bacteria burst open and release prebiotic nutrients. Prebiotics help beneficial bacteria grow faster than harmful bacteria. More specifically, prebiotics are natural sources of nutrients that provide benefit by stimulating the growth and activity of good bacteria in the digestive tract. Prebiotic supplements have historically been made up of some type of fiber or sugar, which have been known to lead to gas and bloating. Floraphage is not comprised of fiber or sugars, so the potential for digestive distress is eliminated while providing its super-prebiotic benefits. How Safe is Floraphage? Floraphage represents a tiny fraction of the total phages contained in the body, as the gut is a natural habitat for bacteria and phages. Floraphage does not contain genetic elements that are harmful to humans. Furthermore, Floraphage is not constructed in a manner that would enable it to negatively impact any beneficial bacteria. Therefore, Floraphage presents no harm to the natural microbial flora of the intestine. In addition, Floraphage has GRAS status with the FDA. Benefits of Floraphage Include: Increase the potency of any probiotic Does not cause digestive discomfort Selective anti-microbial properties Can be taken alone or in combination with a probiotic Does not contain GMOs 1.

Surthrival True 6 Hour Colostrum. Third Party Verified True 6 Hour Colostrum - Mother Nature's Most Complete Superfood. Colostrum is 3X more effective against Swine Flu than Vaccines! The following information referenced was originally written by Dr. Anthony Kleinsmith. SurThrivalists!  You already knew Colostrum is the most absorbable, most nutrient dense, and complete food in nature, but did you know that Colostrum is 3X more effective against Swine Flu than vaccines?  But remember, not all Colostrum is created equal.  In fact, nearly all Colostrum on the market is actually nothing more than "transitional milk".  True Colostrum must be harvested within 6 hours from the birth of the calf.  Our Colostrum is the only independent 3rd party verified true "6 hour" Colostrum.    The following is the summary of a clinical study on the prevention of Influenza with Colostrum compared against Flu Vaccination: The efficacy of a 2-month treatment with oral Colostrum in the prevention of flu episodes compared with anti-influenza vaccination was evaluated. Groups included healthy subjects without prophylaxis and those receiving both vaccination and Colostrum. After 3 months of follow-up, the number of days with flu was 3 times higher in the non-Colostrum subjects. The Colostrum group had 13 episodes versus 14 in the Colostrum + vaccination group, 41 in the group without prophylaxis, and 57 in nontreated subjects. Part 2 of the study had a similar protocol with 65 very high-risk cardiovascular subjects, all of whom had prophylaxis. The incidence of complications and hospital admission was higher in the group that received only a vaccination compared with the Colostrum groups. Colostrum, both in healthy subjects and high-risk cardiovascular patients, is at least 3 times more effective than vaccination to prevent flu and is very cost-effective. PMID: 17456621 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17456621 More about Colostrum.... Colostrum is the "immune milk" produced by all mammals for only the first few hours before and after birth. Supercharged with 97 immune factors and 87 growth factors, Colostrum is nature's "first food". It's adaptogenic properties enhance rejuvination and regeneration while strengthening the immune system, allowing your body to thrive under any circumstance. With potent anti-aging benefits, and broad spectrum probiotics in their whole food forms - Colostrum delivers youth, health, and vitality! This Colostrum is from organically raised cows and only harvested after the newborn calves get their share. This is true 6 hour Colostrum, verified by a 3rd party. Colostrum is an amazing material that, like many other things in nature, reflects the evolutionary development of a unique composition that will serve the needs of the offspring for which it is intended. The most unique of the Colostrums from mammalian species occurs in bovines, where transfer of biological substances across the placenta to the developing fetus does not occur and everything required for the development of a healthy, productive offspring is provided in the Colostrum. As such, bovine Colostrum provides a specialized resource that offers the broadest possible spectrum of biologically active substances that can promote the development of a sound body mass, assure effective and efficient metabolism and support the activation and maintenance of a fully functional immune system capable of combating potential insults from microorganisms and other deleterious sources. Bovine Colostrum is also compatible with almost any species and can readily convey its full benefits to humans by routine dietary supplementation without any significant adverse effects.
