Optimise your Health and our Oceans with Kelp!

Are you ready to unlock the wonders of kelp for your health and the environment? 

Even mainstream media has been publishing opinion pieces on the incredible benefits of the wonderful Protist, both for our wellbeing and the planet. 

A Sustainable Superfood

Kelp makes great waves as a sustainable superfood. It’s a fast-growing, low-maintenance crop loaded with nutrients like protein, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fibre. When its freeze-dried kelp retains its nutritional value and is shelf stable.

Kelp’s potential extends far beyond our plates. It can replace plastics, help combat climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide. It’s also a natural habitat for marine life and aids in cleaning our oceans from pollutants. 

Kelp for Thyroid Health and Natural Immunity

Kelp is rich in iodine and an essential nutrient for thyroid health. The thyroid gland regulates metabolism and supports overall wellbeing. Incorporating pure kelp into your diet can ensure you get the iodine your thyroid needs, promoting optimal function and a robust immune system.

By embracing seaweed as a superfood and learning sustainable cultivation methods, we not only boost our health but also contribute to a greener, more resilient future. So, why not make pure kelp a part of your daily routine? It’s an ancient remedy that can lead to a healthier you and a healthier planet.

At Grassland Nutrition, we ethically harvest kelp from the pristine shores of Marrawah, Tasmania. Our commitment to sustainability ensures that we harness the benefits of kelp while preserving the beauty of our natural environment.  Our unique Kelp Crunch is a great way to add the much needed daily iodine levels your body craves that our modern eating habits lack. Energy formula liver and kelp blend is available in capsule and powder form.

Here’s a candid and creative review from one of our customers in the United States. If the author sees this, we appreciate the effort you’ve taken to share your feedback.

There are a number of products offering ‘Grass Fed Beef Liver’ from either Australia or New Zealand. Some offer a larger quantity of liver powder per dose as others are unreasonably costly. Since neither Australians nor New Zealanders are irresponsible producers, I want to believe that products offered in North America are top-notch beef liver from either Australians or New Zealanders.

Please, pay attention to the following:

My research on nutrients that our bodies ~and that of our pets~ need to work as intended by Mother Nature led me to learn that there is a small gland that needs a particular nutrient to do her critically important job. The name of the gland is THYROID. She produces and releases Thyroid Hormones which control vitally important functions in our bodies. That gland ~that looks like a butterfly~ periodically requires healthful quantities of a nutrient known as IODINE.

The reason why I elaborate on that gland’s needs is because only one product ~that I know of~ add a good quantity of Iodine provided by kelp to the beef liver that they offer. That product is ‘Grassland Beef Liver WITH KELP.’

I will not elaborate on medical matters, but I will mention that health matters can complicate when the Thyroid Gland does not receive the nutrients that she needs.

How Beef Organs Can Supercharge Your Mind and Shield Against Dementia

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

In the quest for a long and healthy life, protecting our cognitive abilities is crucial. Dementia, a decline in cognitive function affects everyday life and is a condition feared by many. Every year, there are nearly 10 million new cases (1)

While genetics play a role in our susceptibility to dementia, lifestyle factors including diet, can also influence our mental and cognitive wellbeing. 

In this blog, we’ll explore the potential benefits of incorporating beef organs into your diet as a preventive measure against dementia.

Understanding Dementia

Dementia encompasses various conditions that result in cognitive impairment, with Alzheimer’s disease being the most common form. Symptoms may include memory loss, difficulty in problem-solving, and changes in behaviour, which can significantly impact an individual’s overall welfare.

The Role of Diet in Brain Health

Research suggests that diet plays a crucial role in brain health and may help reduce the risk of dementia. Consuming nutrient-dense foods can nourish the brain, support cognitive function, and potentially delay or mitigate the onset of dementia-related symptoms.

Beef Organs: A Nutritional Powerhouse

Beef organs, such as liver, have long been celebrated for their exceptional nutritional value. These organs are rich in essential nutrients that are beneficial for brain health:

Vitamin B12 Beef organs, particularly liver, are an excellent source of vitamin B12, a vital nutrient for brain function. A deficiency in vitamin B12 has been linked to cognitive decline and dementia.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids Brain health thrives on omega-3 fatty acids, and beef organs are a source of these essential fats. Omega-3s are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and support of cognitive function.

Choline Beef liver is a top source of choline, a nutrient essential for the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in memory and learning.

Antioxidants Beef organs also contain antioxidants like selenium and vitamin E, which help protect brain cells from oxidative damage.

Add Beef Organs to Your Diet

Here’s some practical ways to incorporate them into your diet:

Classic Danish-Style Liver Pâté: 

Liver pâté is a delicious way to enjoy the nutritional benefits of beef liver. Spread it on toast for a satisfying snack or eat it in its beautiful naked baked state.

Danish-style Beef Burgers with cheese and beef liver cream sauce

Whole food beef organ supplements: If you’re not a fan of organ meats, consider high-quality supplements that provide the essential nutrients found in beef organs. 

Slow-Cooked Stews: Add beef organs to slow-cooked stews or soups, allowing the flavours to meld together.

As we mark Dementia Action Week (2), let’s remember that a proactive approach to brain health can make a world of difference. Embrace a diet enriched with beef organs, soak in the morning sun for that essential DHA boost, engage in regular exercise, and indulge in mind-stimulating activities like reading and problem-solving puzzles. Together, these steps can help safeguard your cognitive wellbeing and contribute to a brighter, healthier future. Let’s act now, because a dementia-friendly world begins with our actions today.

If you have a loved one with Dementia and are seeking practical caring support we urge you to look at the services provided by Dementia Doulas International (3), a professional compassionate care approach that supports families and those impacted by advancing dementia, to prepare them for what’s to come so that everyone can come back to living for today. Check out the series of Dementia experience books by Wendy Hall of Dementia Doulas International to help you navigate and best support those needing help – at all stages.

Nourishing Minds: A Holistic Approach to Mental Wellbeing

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

At Grassland Nutrition, we believe in the power of holistic wellbeing. Mental health isn’t just a buzzword for us; it’s at the core of our values and objectives. As we approach Mental Health & Wellbeing, we want to share our perspective and commitment, especially on this RU OK Day.

Nutrition for Mental Health 

Eating well extends beyond physical health—it’s also vital for mental wellbeing. Nutrient-dense organ meats like liver, heart, and kidney are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. These elements are instrumental in brain health and emotional wellbeing.

The Role of Key Nutrients

Vitamin B12, iron, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids found in beef organs support cognitive function, mood regulation, and mental clarity. The high choline content aids neurotransmitter production, assisting in managing conditions like depression and anxiety.

Natural vs. Supplements

Whole food sources like beef organs offer superior nutrient bioavailability compared to supplements. While not a replacement for professional mental health care, they complement a holistic approach by providing the essential building blocks for optimal brain and body function.

Our commitment to mental health is action-oriented. We’ve taken deliberate steps to cultivate a thriving environment:

  • Open and Supportive Culture: We foster open discussions, addressing not only work-related matters but personal challenges too, building a foundation of trust and support.
  • Informal Gatherings: Beyond formal meetings, our informal gatherings create a space for personal and professional conversations, strengthening our sense of community.
  • Conflict Resolution: Challenges are addressed collectively, fostering solutions that benefit everyone involved.
  • Learning environment: Our team has access to a wealth of resources for stress management and seeking assistance when needed. We believe knowledge and support are essential for mental wellbeing.
  • Flexibility: Recognising diverse needs, our flexible work arrangements empower everyone to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
  • Encouraging Self-Care: We actively promote self-care practices like meditation and yoga, understanding their vital role in maintaining a healthy mind and body.

Mental health is a journey, and we’re committed to walking it with our team and community. As we mark RU OK Day, we’re reminded to check in on one another, offer support, and continue nurturing not just our bodies but our minds too. Together, we can create a healthier, happier world. 💚 #MentalHealthMatters #RUOKday

Nurturing, Strengthening, and Boosting Immunity: Beef Organs and Kelp for Women’s Wellness

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

It’s Women’s Health Week so let’s explore the nourishing potential of two nutritional powerhouses: beef organs and kelp! These natural wonders support overall health and also provide a nurturing boost, strengthening, and supporting immunity with benefits that every woman can thrive on.

Nurturing with Beef Organs

Beef liver, in freeze-dried form, is packed with vitamin A, often referred to as the “beauty nutrient.” It promotes healthy skin and hair, giving you that healthy inside and out glow.

Beef kidney is a hidden gem that provides essential nutrients like vitamin B12 and CoQ10, which can boost your energy levels, overall vitality and stave off allergies.

Kelp is a rich source of iodine, a vital mineral for thyroid health. A well-functioning thyroid is essential for regulating metabolism, maintaining energy levels, and achieving hormonal balance.

Kelp’s impressive mineral profile, including calcium and magnesium, contributes to strong bones, an essential consideration for women’s long-term health.

Beef organs, particularly kidney, contain DAO (Diamine Oxidase), which can help break down histamine. This is a game-changer for women dealing with histamine intolerance, offering digestive relief.

Both beef organs and kelp are rich in antioxidants, combating free radicals and supporting your immune system’s defense against infections and diseases.

The convenience of freeze-dried beef organs and kelp makes them easy to include in your daily routine. Sprinkle kelp on salads, soups, or rice dishes for a nutritional boost, and consider capsules for added convenience. Likewise, add beef liver or kidney powder to smoothies or recipes for a nourishing kick.

During Women’s Health Week, let’s celebrate the remarkable nurturing, strengthening, and immunity-boosting power of beef organs and kelp. By incorporating these natural wonders into your diet, you can support your wellbeing and boost your vitality, making every week a Women’s Health Week! 

Your health is your true wealth, and these nutrient-rich whole foods with nothing added are here to help you thrive.  Try in capsule, powder or wholefood chunk form and access the convenient nutritious lift to your daily diet.
