Collection: Organ Meat Capsules

What are organ meat supplements?

Organ meat supplements are capsules filled with dried organ meats such as liver, heart, kidney and spleen. They're an easy way to include organ meats if you don't enjoy the taste or don't want to cook them. Each capsule holds a small amount of powdered organ, so check the label to see how many capsules make one serve.

Freeze-dried or desiccated: what's the difference?

"Desiccated" simply means dried. Freeze-drying is one way of drying: the organ is frozen, then the water is removed at low temperature and low pressure, leaving a powder that can be put into capsules. The capsules in this collection use freeze-dried beef organs.

Beef liver, organ blends and iron blends

• Beef liver capsules contain liver only. Liver naturally contains vitamin A, vitamin B12 and iron.
• Mixed organ blends combine several organs in one capsule, such as liver, heart, kidney, spleen and tripe.
• Iron-focused blends are built around iron-containing organs such as spleen and liver. Check the nutrition panel for the iron per serve.

Grass-fed, grass-finished and organic: what do they mean?

Grass-fed means the cattle were raised on pasture. Grass-finished means they stayed on grass right through to processing, rather than being finished on grain in a feedlot. Certified organic means the farming and processing meet an organic standard and are independently audited. The manufacturer describes the beef organs in these capsules as Australian, grass-fed and organic, and the beef liver and organ blend capsules as grass-finished too.

How to choose organ meat capsules

• Organ type: choose liver only, a mixed organ blend, or an iron-focused blend.
• Serve size: divide the capsule count by the capsules per serve to see how many serves are in a pack.
• Source: check the country, how the cattle were raised and whether the ingredients are certified organic.
• Capsule shell: many capsules are made from gelatine, which is animal-derived. Check the label if you avoid it.
• Price per serve: divide the price by the number of serves to compare packs fairly.

What's the difference between beef liver capsules and organ blend capsules?
