Why Liver and Kelp? 

“Something in the liver had prevented them from becoming exhausted.”

“To this day scientists have not been able to pin a label on this anti-fatigue factor.”

The Liver Files

The anti-fatigue factor was described by Benjamin K. Ershoff, PhD, in July 1951…..

Anti : reversing or undoing

Fatigue : a reduction in the efficiency of a muscle or organ after prolonged activity

Ershoff divided laboratory rats into three groups. The first ate a basic diet, fortified with 11 vitamins. The second ate the same diet, along with an additional supply of vitamin B complex. The third ate the original diet, but instead of vitamin B complex received 10 percent of rations as powdered liver.

After several weeks, the animals were placed one by one into a drum of cold water from which they could not climb out. They literally were forced to sink or swim. Rats in the first group swam for an average 13.3 minutes before giving up. The second group, which had the added fortifications of B vitamins, swam for an average of 13.4 minutes.

Of the last group of rats, the ones receiving liver, three swam for 63, 83 and 87 minutes. The other nine rats in this group were still swimming vigorously at the end of two hours when the test was terminated. Something in the liver had prevented them from becoming exhausted. To this day scientists have not been able to pin a label on this anti-fatigue factor.

How Vince Gironda Found the Power of Food

Vince Gironda
The Iron Guru Vince Gironda  (1917 to 1997)

One man who had mastered dieting and who never used drugs was the Iron Guru Vince Gironda.

Gironda began competing in the 1950s and then trained both athletes and movie stars for many decades after. So defined was his physique, he often found himself penalized by judges who seemed confused over his appearance.They thought that this type of cut-up physique was slightly repugnant so he lost most muscular titles to smoother men who had that type of definition for that day.

Gironda often stated that nutrition was 85-90 percent of bodybuilding. His alternative to drugs was eggs, he advocated up to 36 eggs a day for 6 to 8 weeks to produce muscle buildup.

He recommended mineral rich sea kelp for its iodine content and dried liver extract for blood building and oxygen capacity boosting. Many bodybuilders used desiccated liver after the early 1950s experiments of Dr. Benjamin Ershoff. Ershoff who conducted the famous liver study wherein rats fed 10 percent desiccated liver swam far longer compared to controls.

Vince Gironda’s 3 Natural Anabolic Secrets

 Anabolic : the synthesis of complex molecules (f.ex muscle tissue) in living organisms

Secret#1

Vince used to suggest taking three to four amino acid tablets and 3 to 10 liver tablets every three hours to help keep the body in a positive nitrogen state between meals and during those times when a person can’t eat a normal meal or snack.

Liver contains a red protein pigment called Cytrochrome P-450 which accounts for the endurance factors that many hard training bodybuilders receive from taking it. Back in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s it was common to see many bodybuilding competitors take as many as 60 Liver tablets a day in the off-season and 100 tablets the last few weeks prior to a competition.

Recognized the world over as a superfood…

 Superfood : a nutrient-rich food considered to be especially beneficial for health and well-being.

Because mother’s milk is low in iron, liver is a valuable first food for baby, as around six months a full-term baby’s iron stores begin to decrease. In many traditional cultures, pre-chewed liver is a common first food. It is no wonder this food is revered for its nutritional gifts—compared to other foods, it outdoes most others in terms of vitamin and mineral concentration (see chart below).

Feed Your Mind: The Power of Whole Food Nutrition in Boosting Mental Wellbeing

Feed Your Mind The Power of Whole Food beef organ and kelp Nutrition in Boosting Mental Wellbeing

It is Mental Health Month, and we love to talk about mental health and wellbeing as we understand its importance to our quality of life. While we often think of mental health as a complex tangle of emotions and experiences, there’s a surprising connection between our gut and our brain. 

This Mental Health Month, we’re exploring how Grassland Nutrition’s freeze-dried wholefood beef organs and kelp can be a game-changer for your overall wellbeing, including dopamine production, thanks to the rich B12 and iodine content.

The Gut-Brain Connection

Recent scientific research has unveiled the intimate connection between our gut and our brain. This relationship is often referred to as the “gut-brain axis.” It turns out that the health of our gut microbiome – the trillions of microorganisms living in our intestines – can significantly influence our mental health.

A balanced gut microbiome can:

  1. Boost Mood: The gut produces many neurotransmitters, including serotonin and dopamine, which play a crucial role in regulating our mood and emotions. An imbalanced gut can lead to mood swings and even depression….
  2. Reduce Anxiety: The gut-brain axis influences the stress response, and an unhealthy gut can lead to heightened anxiety levels.
  3. Enhance Cognitive Function: A healthy gut can improve cognitive functions such as memory and focus.
  4. Support Better Sleep: Gut health impacts sleep patterns, so addressing gut issues can lead to more restful nights.

The Role of Grassland Nutrition Products

Grassland Nutrition offers a unique solution to promote both gut and mental health through their freeze-dried wholefood beef organs and kelp products. Here’s how these superfoods can benefit you:

  1. Beef Organs for Optimal Nutrition: Grassland Nutrition’s freeze-dried beef organs are a treasure trove of essential nutrients. They’re packed with B12, which is essential for brain health and dopamine production. B12 deficiencies are known to cause mood disorders and cognitive decline. By incorporating these nutrient-rich organs into your diet, you’re giving your brain the fuel it needs to function at its best.
  2. Kelp’s Iodine Power: Iodine is another critical nutrient for mental health. Kelp, a type of seaweed, is a fantastic source of iodine. Iodine deficiency can lead to thyroid issues, which are linked to mood imbalances. Adding kelp to your diet helps maintain proper thyroid function, which in turn supports a healthier mind.
  3. Gut Healing: Both beef organs and kelp contribute to gut health. The nutrients they provide support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, helping to maintain a balanced gut microbiome. A healthier gut means better digestion and absorption of nutrients, which can positively impact your mental health.

Incorporating Grassland Nutrition into Your Diet

It’s easy to integrate Grassland Nutrition’s products into your daily routine. You can sprinkle freeze-dried beef organs onto savoury foods, mix them into smoothies, or enjoy them as a snack. Kelp can be added to soups, stews, or as a seasoning for a nutrient-packed boost.

This Mental Health Month, take a step towards better mental and gut health by exploring the incredible benefits of Grassland Nutrition’s freeze-dried wholefood beef organs and kelp. 

Nourishing your body from the inside out can make a significant difference in how you feel and think, ultimately leading to a happier and healthier you. 

Remember, a healthy gut is a happy mind!

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.

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.

Unlocking Psoriasis Relief: The Power of Beef Organs and a Meat-Based Diet

/0 Comments/in , , /by

August shines a light on Psoriasis Awareness Month which, as a sufferer of skin issues, drove us to delve into the connection between nutrition and skin health. 

For many, psoriasis isn’t just a skin condition; it’s an ongoing battle with discomfort and self-esteem. But what if we told you that a meat-based diet, incorporating nutrient-dense beef organs, could offer relief by targeting gut inflammation, a trigger for psoriasis? 

This dietary approach might just be the key to clearer, healthier skin.

Benefits of Beef Organs for Gut Inflammation

Beef organs, especially liver, are nutritional powerhouses. They’re rich in essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin A, zinc, and B vitamins. These nutrients help to maintain a healthy gut lining and support the immune system. A well-functioning gut is less likely to be inflamed, reducing triggers for psoriasis flare-ups.

Liver contains retinol (preformed vitamin A) and plays a significant role in skin health. Retinol supports skin cell production and repair that mitigates excessive skin cell growth that is characteristic of psoriasis.

Carnivore-Based Diet and Gut Health

A meat-based diet is simple and focuses on animal products. By eliminating gut irritants like grains, dairy, and vegetables, it reduces gut inflammation – one of the underlying factors contributing to psoriasis.

Moreover, the high-fat nature of this diet can support the body’s production of anti-inflammatory compounds, which may further soothe the skin and reduce psoriasis symptoms.

As a sufferer of an interesting combination of dermatitis and rosacea since my second child, no over the counter products have had the effect that altering my diet has had. Eliminating everything but meat (salt to taste) and water for two weeks helped to settle my gut dramatically and alleviated other IBS symptoms too. Two years later, although the rosacea is still prevalent when stressed, run down or coming up to, during and a few days past a menstrual cycle it is distinctly less angry – and the gut is harmoniously aligned with clarity of mind… 

We understand that psoriasis is a complex condition with numerous triggers, yet diet plays a significant role in managing it. 

Let’s touch on the other factors that can contribute to its development and exacerbation. These factors include:

  • Genes If there are others in the family with psoriasis there is a higher risk of developing it.
  • Autoimmune disease Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease causing inflammation and excessive skin cell production. Immune system dysfunction is a key factor in psoriasis.
  • Environmental factors Stress is probably the biggest environmental culprit.
  • Excess body fat There’s a link between obesity and psoriasis where increased inflammation in the body can worsen psoriasis symptoms.
  • Smoking and alcohol There’s no surprise that these pastimes exacerbate the symptoms.
  • Hormonal fluctuations Hormonal disruption whether in puberty, pregnancy or menopause impacts psoriasis.

Allison’s success story

Allison Wilson, aka The Glamorous Carnivore, has kindly shared her transformative personal story with us to offer help to others.

My psoriasis developed in full force after I delivered my 4th child. I, at that point, was undiagnosed with Celiac Disease. Celiac disease is also an autoimmune disease, but unlike psoriasis, this disease causes your immune system to attack your small intestine. After the destruction of your villi, you are unable to absorb nutrients from your food. Vitamin deficiencies are common in people with psoriasis.

Upon diagnosis of my celiac disease, I removed gluten from my diet but after a few months of a gluten-free diet, I was still having symptoms. I learned about the cross-reactivity of grains (where your immune system gets confused and creates a “glutened” reaction to foods that contain proteins that are not the same as wheat/barley/rye gluten) and removed all grains. I felt much better but would still have symptoms and was desperate for relief. 

I decided to bite the bullet and just cold turkey on everything else besides animal products. Within 3 days. I had no symptoms at all! My digestion was no longer painful and uncomfortable all day long, my skin cleared up, my joints stopped hurting, my migraines dissipated, and I could just feel that the inflammation levels in my body were lower than they’d ever been before. 

Through a continued carnivore diet, I’ve lost weight and stabilised my autoimmune diseases. I contribute my health gains to the highly nutrient-dense animal foods and the removal of ALL plant material. On occasion, my skin might flare up or react to outside sources that are much easier to pinpoint points like lack of sleep, skin trauma, or stress. 

I help my skin by also only using animal-based soaps and moisturisers (some include bovine liver and egg yolks!) A carnivore diet has 100% helped clear up and keep my skin and entire body healthier and happier!” 

Here at Grassland Nutrition, we don’t advocate a one-size fits all approach, we are all different. As psoriasis is a highly individualised condition, what worsens it can vary. 

Managing psoriasis needs a personalised approach, like Allison’s story that takes into account all of these various factors – and diet has a part to play.

If you’d like to get in touch and tell us about your experience, or you’d like to get started on your journey with whole food nutrition – we’d love to hear from you!

Unlocking Your Brain’s Potential: The Iodine-IQ Connection and Beef Liver Boost

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We all want to be at the top of our game, mentally sharp and ready to take on our daily challenges. One way to enhance our brain function is to scrutinise our dietary choices. In this blog, we’re diving into the benefits of iodine and its link to IQ, with an emphasis  on beef liver’s role in boosting brain power.

Iodine and IQ: A Powerful Link

Iodine might be a tiny element, but it plays a colossal role in our cognitive development. This essential trace element is vital for thyroid function, particularly in the production of thyroid hormones. Why does this matter for our brains? Because thyroid hormones are the driving force behind brain development, especially during pregnancy and early childhood.

Severe iodine deficiency during pregnancy can lead to a devastating condition known as cretinism, resulting in irreversible cognitive impairment. Fortunately, cretinism is rare in developed countries, however, even mild iodine deficiency can impact cognitive function in children, leading to lower IQ scores and impaired cognitive development. This is a real worldwide issue today and has been reported as a worldwide crisis on mainstream media.

Beef Liver: A Brain-Boosting Superfood

Now, let’s talk about beef liver. This nutrient-packed organ meat is a treasure trove of essential nutrients, including vitamin B12, iron, and zinc.

  • Vitamin B12: is a key player in the formation of myelin, a substance that insulates nerve cells and ensures efficient nerve transmission. It’s like the brain’s high-speed internet connection, and vitamin B12 keeps it humming.
  • Iron: essential for carrying oxygen to the brain. An iron deficiency can lead to anemia, causing cognitive problems such as memory lapses and difficulty concentrating.
  • Zinc: plays a crucial role in neurotransmitter function, which affects memory and learning processes. It’s like the conductor in the brain’s orchestra.

Putting It All Together

Incorporating beef liver into your diet can give your cognitive health a well-deserved boost, especially if you have deficiencies in these critical nutrients. But, cognitive function is a complex puzzle with many pieces. Genetics, overall diet, physical activity, and mental stimulation working together  harmoniously keep your brain in tip-top shape.

To ensure you’re getting enough iodine for optimal cognitive development and function, use kelp and eat iodine-rich foods like seafood, dairy products, and eggs. 

Your brain is your most valuable asset. With the right nutrients and a clean diet, you can unlock its full potential and keep those cognitive gears well oiled.

Try Kelp Crunch, unique to Grassland Nutrition, simply wild harvested and organic sourced Bull Kelp. A convenient way to meet your iodine requirements and protect your thyroid health.

Beef Organ Supplements: Your Personalised Path to Optimal Health!

/1 Comment/in , , , /by

As we are becoming increasingly health-conscious and discerning about what we consume for the betterment of our health, individuals are seeking ways to enhance their wellbeing through balanced nutrition and dietary supplementation. 

The consumption of beef organ wholefood supplements in capsule or powder form is thankfully now back on the rise after becoming out of favour across the last decade, yet some of us in Western society recall how these were a regular feature of everyday meals (liver and onions, beef and kidney pie…) when we were ‘knee high to a grasshopper.’ 

These supplements offer a concentrated source of essential nutrients found in organ meats, promoting overall health and vitality. However, determining the right amount of supplementation can be perplexing. In this blog, we will explore a personalised approach to using beef organ wholefood supplements to maximise their benefits and support individual requirements.

The Power of Beef Organ Wholefood Supplements

Beef organ wholefood supplements have gained popularity due to their rich nutrient content. These supplements include organs such as liver, heart, and kidney, which are nutritional powerhouses. Organ meats are packed with vitamins, minerals, proteins, and healthy fats that can significantly contribute to various aspects of our health, including energy levels, immune function, and overall wellbeing.

Understanding Individual Requirements

Before starting any supplement routine, it’s pertinent to understand that everyone’s nutritional needs differ.  This is based on numerous factors such as age, sex, lifestyle, and underlying health conditions. While some individuals may have nutrient deficiencies that warrant higher doses, others may only require maintenance-level supplementation.

Starting with 3 Capsules: A Gradual Approach

For those opting for beef organ wholefood supplements in capsule form, we recommend starting with three capsules per day. This allows your body to acclimate to the new supplement and ensures you don’t overwhelm your system with an excessive intake of nutrients all at once. Over the course of two weeks, monitor how your body is responding to this initial serving.

Gradually Increase to 6 Capsules

After the initial period of three capsules per day, you may gradually increase your intake to six capsules daily. This step provides a higher concentration of nutrients, which can be particularly beneficial for individuals with specific health concerns or those with nutrient deficiencies. Pay close attention to your body during this phase. Look for signals it may send, and reduce if there are any unwanted effects. In the vast majority of individuals a rise in energy levels and vitality will be experienced 

Finding Your Optimal Maintenance Level

Once you’ve reached the stage of six capsules per day, you may begin to assess how your body responds to this level of supplementation. Some individuals may find that they achieve their desired health goals and maintain optimal wellbeing with this dosage. If you feel good and experience positive effects, you may continue with six capsules daily as part of your maintenance routine.

Reducing to 3 Capsules for Maintenance

For others, after achieving the desired health benefits, it’s possible to reduce the intake back to three capsules daily. This maintenance level should be optimal to sustain your health and wellbeing while still providing the essential nutrients your body requires. Again, individual differences play a significant role, so be attentive to your body’s needs.

Freeze-Dried Beef Organ Powder: Serving Suggestions

For those who prefer the freeze-dried beef organ powder, the recommended serving is 1 1/2 teaspoons. This versatile powder can be added to various cooked meals, smoothies, yogurt, shakes, meats, or eggs, providing a convenient and tasty way to incorporate the health benefits of organ meats into your diet.

Beef organ wholefood supplements, whether in capsule or powder form, offer an excellent way to boost your nutrient intake and support your overall health. Remember that each person’s requirements are unique, and it’s important to begin with a gradual approach when incorporating supplements into your routine. From three capsules, gradually increase to six capsules to assess your body’s response, and then find your optimal maintenance level. With freeze-dried beef organ powder, you can conveniently add this nutritious supplement to a variety of dishes, allowing you to experience the benefits in a way that suits your taste and lifestyle.

We’ve provided a simple table below to help you on your supplementation journey. Let us know how you find incorporating beef organ wholefood supplements and share your experiences with others yet to join our community.

Remember that the information provided in the table is a general guideline and should be adapted based on individual health needs and goals.

Let’s agree that we all pass wind from time to time.  Statistically around 20 times per day on an average day! Those cheeky releases aren’t so harmless, contributing to the release of methane gas, a potent greenhouse gas. 

Fear not, nature has an answer – kelp! 

Methane, more toxic than carbon dioxide, plays a significant role in climate change. Livestock, including cows, and humans, are guilty of letting methane escape into the atmosphere through flatulence. The sustainable solution is kelp!

This marine proteus possesses the amazing ability to absorb and neutralise methane. By incorporating kelp into our diets, we can help dissipate the problem in an environmentally friendly fashion

Our wholefood Bull Kelp Crunch was a revelation and is delicious.  It derives from freeze dried Durvillaea Potatorum, a unique species of Bull Kelp that thrives in the mixing zone of nutrients welling up from the depths of the The Great Southern Ocean. Tested 100% free of inorganic arsenic and radiation, it is particularly rich in iodine which promotes optimal thyroid function (read more about kelp for thyroid health in our recent blog Kelp and Beef Liver: Powerful Allies for Thyroid Health and wellbeing). Also beneficial for energy support, this product is 100% organic sourced and sustainably harvested.

Bull Kelp Crunch is unique in the market and comes in two sizes, 50g and 100g.  It is a crunchy flake-like consistency that can be sprinkled on pretty much everything!  The daily recommended serving is a teeny 1 teaspoon that can be added to salads, soups, eggs, even yoghurt! 

Start adding kelp to your essential daily foodstuffs! It’s easy to make a difference, not only to your gut in optimising digestion, yet also reducing methane production. Together, let’s fart less AND turn the tides on methane emissions!
