Kidney in classic cooking
Kidney is one of the organs that has stayed on the menu the longest. In England, steak and kidney pie, a pie of beef and kidney, is still a pub classic. In France, rognons à la moutarde, kidneys in mustard sauce, are on the menu of many a bistro.
From the pasture in New Zealand
The kidneys come from cattle that graze outdoors their whole lives, mainly in New Zealand and partly in Australia. They are given no added hormones or antibiotics. The kidney is raw freeze-dried and not defatted. This product contains no liver. The capsules are filled in the United States.
Facts about beef kidney
A beef kidney looks different from a human kidney: it consists of around twenty separate lobes, like a bunch of grapes. Kidney is one of the foods with the highest selenium content.
Grass-fed Beef Kidney by Ancestral Supplements
The original inhabitants of America and other indigenous peoples have had a tradition of eating organ meat for centuries. Animal organs contain a high concentration of nutrients, and they believe that these animal organs support the vitality of their own organs. Grass-fed Beef Kidney by Ancestral Supplements contains 100% pure beef kidneys. Beef kidneys are a source of vital building blocks, bioregulators and powerful amounts of selenium and vitamin B12.
The power of Beef Kidney
All over the world, animal organs have been eaten for hundreds of years because people believe in the health and well-being effects they bring. Grassfed Kidney by Ancestral Supplements is a natural food supplement made of pure beef kidneys. The specific peptides, cofactors, enzymes and micronutrients it contains occur in high concentrations and are highly compatible with the body. Beef kidneys also contain diamine oxidase (DAO), an enzyme produced by the body that can digest histamine from food in the small intestine and that is also found in the kidneys and placenta of humans. Beef kidneys are also rich in vital building blocks, bioregulators and powerful amounts of selenium and vitamin B12, which makes them a high-quality source of nutrients. Selenium supports the immune system and contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage. Vitamin B12 also has a positive influence on the immune system. In addition, vitamin B12 helps with the production of red blood cells and with releasing energy from food.
How do organ supplements work?
Your body needs essential proteins in order to transform them through protein synthesis into nucleoproteins, antibodies, enzymes and tissue cells. Organ meat is an important source of essential proteins, but also of micronutrients, fatty acids, enzymes and cofactors that nourish and support our whole body. Finally, organ meat contains organ-specific nutrients that travel in our body to the target organ: the corresponding organ in the human body. The body appears to recognise the nutritional components in an animal organ and to be able to transport them to the same organ in the human body that needs this specific composition of nutrients. Mother Nature has therefore arranged things so that these substances end up exactly where your body needs them. By taking organ supplements, you can supply your body and your organs with essential micronutrients and bioactive substances.

Eating head to tail
For centuries, traditional civilisations such as Native American and ancient Chinese culture have eaten animal organs. Traditional healers believed that eating healthy animal organs has a nurturing effect on those same organs in the human body. Today we have largely forgotten how to eat according to the head-to-tail principle, and some people are even put off by the idea of eating animal organs. Fortunately, there has recently been a revival of this ancestral way of life and of evolutionary eating: organ therapy is back. After all, using animals in their entirety for consumption fits an ethical, sustainable and healthy way of life. Organ meat even contains high concentrations of nutrients, such as vitamins A, B12, D, E, K and folate, and it is an excellent source of iron and protein. Organs also contain nutrients that our corresponding human organs can use. Organ meat therefore fits into the diet of anyone who wants to live healthily, sustainably and with respect for animals and the environment.

According to the principles of Weston Price
The American dentist Weston Price (1870-1948) studied the eating habits of traditional peoples all over the world. He discovered that the original inhabitants of Canada attached great value to eating meat from animal organs; bone marrow in particular was popular. Organs were a staple of the daily diet of our early ancestors, and for good reason: fat-soluble vitamins and a large share of the essential minerals were obtained through the organs of animals.
Organ meat of the highest quality
Ancestral Supplements products are made from grass-fed cattle from New Zealand and Australia whose health is a top priority for the company.

About Ancestral Supplements
Ancestral Supplements is a Texas-based company that produces high-quality organ supplements. The company's mission grew out of the personal drive of Brian Johnson, one of the founders, who would do anything to ensure that his sons, both in poor health, could finally be fit and healthy. After years of doctor's visits and tests, they took matters into their own hands and the whole family started eating organic, pasture-fed and wild-caught animal meat according to the head-to-tail principle. Their entire way of life changed drastically and is based on the way our ancestors lived and dealt with the world around them. It is the great success of this way of life that prompted Johnson to found Ancestral Supplements. To make eating animal organs and glands more accessible to everyone, the company has carefully put together products containing these animal organs full of essential nutrients.
