Bone Broth Powder

How is the Bone Broth Powder made?

We use 100% grass-fed and finished NZ beef bones that are antibiotic and hormone-free, and raised with respect. These are combined with locally grown vegetables in a traditional family recipe passed down through generations. After slow-cooking, we gently dry the bone broth to remove the water and preserve the nutritional profile, creating a shelf-stable powder that’s convenient for modern lives.

As always, we suggest making bone broth from scratch if you can.

Where do you source your beef bones from?

Right here in New Zealand. We take pride in sourcing the best quality bones from the healthiest and happiest cows we can find. Our Bone Broth products are proudly made from 100% grass fed and finished cattle from New Zealand. All bones are hormone and anti-biotic-free.

What does the Bone Broth taste/smell like?

Simply put, it's delicious! Bone broth extraction creates a natural amino acid profile, but our powders don't taste or smell "meaty." The powder has a mild flavor that you can enhance with salt, pepper, lemon, and/or ginger.

Note: If you've worked heavily with meat before as a butcher or in an abattoir, we've had feedback that it can trigger a more potent meat memory smell.

Is it gluten and dairy-free?

Yes, absolutely. It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, legume-free, low in sugar, and high in protein and collagen.

Does it contain collagen?

Yes, it contains over 70% collagen. It’s natural too, meaning it’s derived from the cooking process and not added from a cheaper source.

Is it safe for pregnancy/breastfeeding?

Yes, our range is all-natural, making it not only safe but highly recommended. It’s a great way to get the extra protein your body needs during pregnancy. However, it is advised to discuss any supplement intake with your GP or healthcare professional before consumption, just to be safe. The rosemary in the extract is less than 1%, which is fine for pregnant women.

Is it safe for babies and toddlers?

Yes, it is. Mixing some 10 - 15g of Bone Broth Powder into your baby’s next soft meal is a great way to add protein when you start them on solids.

Is it suitable for a low FODMAP, keto, or paleo diet?

Yes, it is. Our ingredients include extract of grass-fed beef bones, onions, carrots, celery, parsley, organic apple cider vinegar, black peppercorns, bay leaf, and rosemary. All the nutrients from these ingredients are suspended in the liquid after the cooking process. The bones and other materials are removed before a gentle drying process. The onion flesh is removed before drying, so it’s suitable for low FODMAP diets, with only a trace amount in the powder. The other ingredients are also present in trace amounts by the time the powder is formed.

We always suggest consulting with your healthcare professional first if you are unsure.

Is the Bone Broth Halal certified?

Yes. All our products are verified to comply with Islamic dietary laws and are therefore permissible for consumption or use by Muslims. Halal certification indicates that the product has been produced, processed, and handled according to Islamic principles, ensuring that it does not contain any forbidden ingredients or involve any prohibited practices in its manufacturing process.

Is it tested for heavy metals and nutritional content?

Our entire range is made from non-GMO ingredients and is independently tested for heavy metals. You can find the independent testing information on the product page under Heavy Metals Profile. Results show that they are in the very safe range for heavy metals. It's important to note that basically everything grown in soil contains metals.

Protein Powder

How is Bone Broth Protein Powder made?

We use a traditional cooking technique to extract the goodness from 100% grass-fed New Zealand beef bones. We gently dry the broth to remove the water and preserve its nutritional profile. Finally, we stir in the flavour (natural vanilla, natural caramel, sea salt, or cocoa), and add monk fruit for sweetness. Nothing else is added which makes it a fantastic clean, whole-food supplement.

Is bone broth a good source of protein?

Yes, bone broth powder is an excellent source of protein. It is rich in collagen and is a complete protein as it contains all nine essential amino acids. It's easily digestible, supports joint health, skin elasticity, and gut integrity, making it a clean and convenient way to boost your protein intake.

Where do you source your beef bones from?

Right here in New Zealand. We take pride in sourcing the best quality bones from the healthiest and happiest cows we can find. Our Bone Broth products are proudly made from 100% grass fed and finished cattle from New Zealand. All bones are hormone and anti-biotic-free.

Are there different benefits to bone broth protein vs whey protein?

Bone broth protein powder and whey protein powder each have their benefits, and which one is right for you depends on your specific health goals and dietary needs:

Bone Broth Protein Powder: Rich in collagen, it's great for joint, skin, and gut health. It also contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source. It's typically easier to digest for those sensitive to dairy.

Whey Protein Powder: High in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are beneficial for muscle repair and growth. Whey is rapidly absorbed, making it good for post-workout recovery. However, it may cause digestive issues for those with lactose intolerance.

Ultimately, bone broth protein powder is better suited for those looking for overall body support, while whey protein is typically better for muscle building.

What does the Bone Broth Protein Powder taste/smell like?

Bone broth extraction creates a natural amino acid profile, but it doesn’t taste or smell like meat. When formulating the Protein Powders, our priority was to ensure that the only taste you get is the intended flavour. If it weren’t for the benefits you’ll feel, you’d never know the difference, as there’s no broth taste, smell, or feel. Simply put, it's delicious!

If you've worked heavily with meat before as a butcher or in an abattoir, we've had feedback that it can trigger a more potent meat memory smell.

How well does Bone Broth Protein Powder mix?

Very well. Achieving a smooth and creamy texture was one of our main priorities when formulating the product. Feedback says it blends seamlessly, unlike many protein powders that feel "gritty." That's a big thumbs up from us! But you don't need to take our word for it, we have over 500+ 5-star reviews from our happy customers!

What is the best way to consume the Bone Broth Protein Powder?

Blend it, bake it, shake it or sip it — our smooth formulation is as versatile as it is delicious.

Blend: Add 30g (2 ½ Tbsp) into your go-to smoothie. Need inspiration? Check out our viral Golden Glow Smoothie or Creamy Cacao Smoothie.

Bake: Whip up protein-packed cookies, bliss balls, or even pancakes for a nutritious twist on your favourite baked treats.

Shake: Add 30g (2 ½ Tbsp) into your Mitchells Shaker with water or milk of choice. Shake well. Shake again for good luck.

Sip: Add 30g (2 ½ Tbsp) into 300mL of hot water and/or milk of choice. Mix together and sip.

Note: We love having ours in coffee using our mixer!

Does it contain collagen?

Yes, it contains over 70% collagen. It’s natural too, meaning it’s derived from the cooking process and not added from a cheaper source.

Is it safe for pregnancy/breastfeeding?

Yes, our range is all-natural, making it not only safe but highly recommended. It’s a great way to get the extra protein your body needs during pregnancy. However, it is advised to discuss any supplement intake with your GP or healthcare professional before consumption, just to be safe.

Is it safe for babies and toddlers?

Yes! Mix 10 - 15g (1 Tbsp) of Bone Broth Protein Powder with your baby’s next soft meal, or add to baking. It’s great for adding protein when you start them on solids.

Is it gluten and dairy-free?

Yes, absolutely. It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, legume-free, low in sugar, and high in protein and collagen.

Is it suitable for a low FODMAP, keto, or paleo diet?

Yes. Our bone broth protein powders are 100% FODMAP friendly. We always suggest consulting with your healthcare professional first if you are unsure.

All our ingredients are natural, including Monk fruit, vanilla extract, rosemary, and all the Bone Broth ingredients. Our products contain no artificial flavors or preservatives. Our entire range is made from non-GMO ingredients and undergoes independent testing for heavy metals. You can find the independent testing information on the product page under Heavy Metals Profile.

Beef Liver Capsules & Powder

Where do you source your Beef Liver from?

Right here in New Zealand. We take pride in sourcing the best quality bones from the healthiest and happiest cows we can find. Our bovine products are proudly made from 100% grass-fed and finished cattle from New Zealand. All bones are hormone and antibiotic-free.

What is the recommended daily dose of Beef Liver?

The recommended dosage is 4 to 6 capsules per day, or as advised by a healthcare professional.

  • 4 capsules: 1680mg/day
  • 6 capsules: 2520mg/day

It's completely up to you whether you take them all at once or spread them throughout the day. Taking them all at once is optimal, but spreading them out is equally beneficial.

Optional: Capsules can be opened and added to smoothies or meals.

Always read the label and use it as directed. Supplementary to a balanced diet.

Note: Each daily serving of six capsules delivers the equivalent of one ounce of fresh, raw whole bovine liver

Why are the capsules freeze-dried and not desiccated?

Freeze drying and desiccation are both methods of processing and preserving beef liver.

Desiccation involves removing moisture from a substance, often through low-heat drying methods, which can damage or destroy the nutritional content. Therefore, we have chosen to carefully freeze-dry our beef liver to preserve and maximise its nutrient density. This process entails freezing the beef liver, then subjecting it to a vacuum environment to remove the moisture.

Do you use gelatine or vegetable casing for the capsules?

Gelatine capsules. Great for anyone on a carnivore diet.

Why not just eat raw beef liver?

Raw beef liver has a strong taste that isn't for everyone, but the benefits are undeniable. That's why we made a convenient freeze-dried and encapsulated 100% NZ grass-fed and finished beef liver.

Note: Many cultures have traditionally consumed organ meats raw or cooked with just salt and pepper. Like bone broth, we recommend consuming it whole this way if possible.

What does non-defatted beef liver mean?

Non-defatted means that our beef liver has not undergone another process to remove the fat content. This ensures that the nutritional profile is retained, as nature intended. This is important for preserving fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.

Is Beef Liver safe during pregnancy/breastfeeding?

Yes! Being a whole food, beef liver is a great 100% natural support during pregnancy and postpartum.

Vitamin A has been studied extensively, with various views on its safety during pregnancy. However, many practitioners suggest consuming fresh and encapsulated beef liver during pregnancy.

Most studies examining vitamin A use synthetic forms rather than the wholefood form retinol, as found in beef liver. It's also important to note that doses in studies often exceed the recommended upper limit.

The dose of vitamin A in our daily serving of beef liver capsules is 1013mcg, and in beef liver powder is 1206mcg, both of which are well below the upper limit of 3000mcg (as outlined by MedSafe).

As always, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional to ensure that the vitamin and mineral levels in our organ supplements are suitable and safe for your unique health needs. They should also complement your dietary intake and any other prescription medications or supplements you may be taking during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Is Beef Liver safe for babies and children?

Yes! We suggest integrating liver into little ones’ diets from 6 months of age and onwards.

The recommended dosage for babies and children is 1/4 of the adult dose, a few times per week.

For powder: 1 teaspoon for adults equals 1/4 teaspoon for babies.

For capsules: 6 capsules for adults, so 1.5 capsules for babies aged 6 months and older.

As always, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional to ensure that the vitamin and mineral levels in our organ supplements are suitable and safe for your baby’s unique needs, and complement their dietary intake.

Is the Beef Liver Halal certified?

Yes. All our products are verified to comply with Islamic dietary laws and are therefore permissible for consumption or use by Muslims. Halal certification indicates that the product has been produced, processed, and handled according to Islamic principles, ensuring that it does not contain any forbidden ingredients or involve any prohibited practices in its manufacturing process.

Doesn't the liver store toxins?

The liver, of any animal, plays a crucial role in filtering toxins from the body. However, it's important to understand that the liver itself doesn’t “store” toxins. Instead, it stores essential nutrients used to process toxins into forms that can be eliminated from the body via the bowels, kidneys, and skin.

That said, any beef liver being consumed must be from healthy animals raised in clean environments to minimise their exposure to toxins, which may deplete the liver of the essential nutrients needed for increased detoxification demand. Our Beef Liver is sourced from 100% Grass-Fed & Finished NZ Beef.

Beef Liver & Spleen Capsules

How much iron is in a daily dose of our Beef Liver & Spleen capsules?

4 capsules: 7.21mg heme iron which is 60.1% RDI

6 capsules: 10.81mg heme iron which is 90.1% RDI

Why 60-90% RDI rather than 100% RDI of iron?

Less is more for iron absorption. Our bodies regulate iron intake carefully, blocking absorption when too much is present to prevent iron overload.

We formulated a specific ratio of beef liver to beef spleen to maximise co-factor nutrients while considering iron intake from whole foods. Supplements should complement a healthy diet, not replace it.

How many capsules should I take a day?

Take 4 - 6 capsules daily with water.

4 capsules: 1800mg/day (7.21mg heme iron, 60.1% RDI)

6 capsules: 2700mg/day (10.81mg heme iron, 90.1% RDI)

Note: It's completely up to you whether you take them all at once or spread them throughout the day. Taking them all at once is optimal, but spreading them out is equally beneficial.

Optional: Capsules can be opened and added to smoothies or meals.

Why not just eat raw beef liver?

Raw beef liver has a strong taste that isn't for everyone, but the benefits are undeniable. That's why we made a convenient freeze-dried and encapsulated 100% NZ grass-fed and finished beef liver.

Note: Many cultures have traditionally consumed organ meats raw or cooked with just salt and pepper. Like bone broth, we recommend consuming it whole this way if possible.

Can I use Beef Liver & Spleen as my B12 supplement?

Yes! While our pure Beef Liver capsules or powder provide more vitamin B12, our Beef Liver and Spleen capsules still offer 123% of the RDI of Vitamin B12.

What is Heme Iron?

Heme iron is a more bioavailable form of iron found in animal-based foods, particularly in red meat, poultry, and seafood. It is distinguished from non-heme iron, which is found in plant-based foods like beans, lentils, and leafy greens.

Is the Beef Liver & Spleen Halal?

Yes. All our products are verified to comply with Islamic dietary laws and are therefore permissible for consumption or use by Muslims. Halal certification indicates that the product has been produced, processed, and handled according to Islamic principles, ensuring that it does not contain any forbidden ingredients or involve any prohibited practices in its manufacturing process.

Is Beef Liver & Spleen safe during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding?

Yes. Being whole-food, beef liver & spleen are a great 100% natural support during pregnancy and postpartum.

Vitamin A is often scrutinised for safety during pregnancy. However, many practitioners recommend consuming fresh and encapsulated beef liver and spleen during pregnancy.

Most studies on vitamin A use synthetic forms rather than the whole-food form of retinol found in beef liver. It's also important to note that the doses in studies are often far above the recommended upper limit.

The dose of vitamin A in our daily serving of beef liver & spleen capsules is 442mcg, well below the upper limit of 3000mcg (as outlined by MedSafe).

As always, we suggest speaking with your healthcare professional to ensure the vitamin and mineral levels in our organ supplements are suitable and safe for your unique health needs and complement both your dietary intake and any other prescription medications or supplements you may be taking during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Is Beef Liver & Spleen safe for babies & children?

Yes! We suggest integrating liver into little ones’ diets from 6 months of age and onwards. For babies, use 1/4 of the adult dose a few times a week. For adults, the dose is 4 capsules, so for babies 6 months and older, it's 1 capsule.

As always, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional to ensure the vitamin and mineral levels in our organ supplements are suitable and safe for your baby’s unique needs and complement their dietary intake.
