Heart And Soil Supplements
Heart & Soil is a company based on the principles of an animal-based diet, promoting the consumption of nutrient-dense organs and meats to support overall health. They produce supplements that are often referred to as “desiccated organs,” meaning freeze-dried and powdered organ meats encapsulated for easier consumption. These supplements typically include liver, heart, kidney, and spleen from grass-fed, pasture-raised animals and aim to provide a range of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients found in organ meats.
Dr. Paul Saladino, a prominent advocate of the carnivore diet, is one of the co-founders of Heart & Soil. The company’s philosophy is that modern diets often lack the nutrient density provided by organ meats, and their supplements are designed to fill that gap.
Below are some popular products from Heart & Soil:
-
Beef Liver: Often considered one of the most nutrient-dense foods, liver is rich in vitamins A, B12, riboflavin, folate, and iron, among other nutrients.
-
Bone Marrow & Liver: Combines the nutrients of both bone marrow, rich in collagen and growth factors, and liver.
-
Heart & Soil: A mix of different organs including heart, liver, and kidney. This aims to provide a broader spectrum of nutrients.
-
Whole Package: Includes a variety of organ meats, such as liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, and spleen, catering to those who seek comprehensive organ meat nutrition.
The philosophy behind these supplements is rooted in the belief that traditional diets integrated a variety of organ meats and that modern dietary habits have strayed too far from these practices, leading to deficiencies.
Before adding any new supplement to your diet, it’s generally good practice to consult with a healthcare provider, especially if you have pre-existing conditions or are taking other medications.
