In the world of ancestral nutrition, few foods rival the nutritional power of organ meats. We’re excited to introduce the newest addition to our Organ Supplement range, Beef Heart Capsules. Beef Heart is your go-to for supporting energy, endurance, heart health & mitochondrial function.
Why did our ancestors eat Beef Heart?
Our ancestors instinctively valued organ meats for their ability to nourish vital organs and body systems, long before modern science confirmed its benefits. Guided by generations of observation and lived experience, people noticed that eating heart boosted strength, stamina, and recovery, and many ancestral systems followed the belief that "like supports like” (eating heart to nourish one’s own heart). Today, modern science validates what traditional diets intuitively understood, showing Beef Heart contains targeted nutrients that specifically support cardiovascular health, energy production, and physical performance.
What are the key nutrients in Beef Heart?
Beef heart is one of nature’s hidden gems for boosting energy, endurance and heart health. It’s packed with important nutrients like CoQ10, vitamin B12 and essential amino acids.
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is especially powerful. It helps your cells produce energy and is most needed in parts of the body that work the hardest, like your heart, brain and muscles. That means more support for performance, stamina and recovery.
- CoQ10 → Supports mitochondrial health and energy production (Ref 1 - 2)
- B Vitamins (especially B12 and Riboflavin) → Promotes energy metabolism and nervous system health (Ref 3.)
- Iron → Supports oxygen transport and combats fatigue (Ref 3.)
- Zinc → Essential for immune resilience and cellular recovery (Ref 4 - 4.1)
- Collagen & Elastin → Provide structural support for healthy joints, connective tissue, and skin (Ref 5.)
The Power of Stacking
As our Organ Supplement range grows, we’re intentionally creating products that work together to support your body on multiple levels. Beef Heart and Beef Liver are a standout duo when it comes to performance and everyday vitality.
Beef Liver has long been known as nature’s multivitamin. It’s a nutritional powerhouse, rich in vitamin A, choline, copper, folate, and a full spectrum of easily absorbed B vitamins. When taken alongside Beef Heart, the benefits are even greater, supporting everything from blood health to stamina and recovery.
- Beef Liver → Supports healthy blood, skin, immunity, and overall wellbeing
- Beef Heart → Fuels energy, endurance, heart health, and post-exercise recovery
Who is Beef Heart for?
- Anyone feeling tired, flat, or burnt out
- Active people looking to improve endurance and recovery
- Those wanting a natural alternative to synthetic multivitamins
- Anyone ready to reclaim their energy and resilience from the inside out
