Grass-Fed Organ Supplements: The Ultimate Superfood for energy, immunity & Hormone Balance

If you’re searching for one of the most nutrient-dense foods nature has to offer, then think about the healing benefits obtained from grass-fed, organic organs. Once a staple in ancestral diets, organ meats like beef liver and beef spleen are finally returning to modern wellness for their incredible nutrient density and whole-body healing power.

As a naturopath, I’m passionate about using traditional medicines from the land and that’s why I often recommend 100% organic, grass-fed organs using a variety of spleen, liver, kidney, heart and other organs. Organ therapy is one of the oldest medicines in the world- as the nutritional value of these is immense and highly absorbable. 

To understand why these ancestral superfoods are making such a comeback in natural health it is important to know just what ‘nutritional magic’ is contained within these food medicines. 

 

Why Organ Meats Are Nature’s Multivitamin

Organ meats are among the most bioavailable sources of vitamins and minerals found anywhere in nature. Unlike synthetic vitamins, which can be difficult to absorb, organs and supplements derived from these provide nutrients in their natural matrix, complete with enzymes, amino acids, and cofactors that enhance uptake.

These nutrient-dense foods deliver powerful compounds for:

• Energy and metabolism
• Hormonal balance
• Nutritional support
• Liver detoxification and methylation
• Immune health and red blood cell formation
• Healthy hair, skin and nails

It’s no wonder ancestral cultures revered organs as sacred nourishment to restore health and wellness. 

 

Beef Liver Benefits: Energy, Detox, and Skin Health

Grass-fed beef liver is often called "nature's most potent multivitamin". It provides the essential nutrients your body craves in highly absorbable forms to help fix a multitude of imbalances and nutritional deficiencies. I often recommend to my clients to cook up some lambs fry or liver when hemoglobin and red blood cells are low. 

Key nutrients in beef liver:

• Vitamin A (Retinol): Supports hormone balance, skin health, and immune resilience
• Vitamin B12 & Folate: Boosts energy, fertility, DNA repair, methylation and red blood cell production
• Iron (heme form): Easily absorbed; prevents fatigue and anemia – not as high as in spleen
• CoQ10 & Choline: Supports liver detox, fat metabolism, energy and heart health
• Zinc & Copper: Crucial for collagen, thyroid, and antioxidant enzymes, hair and skin health

Beef liver enhances detoxification, hormone production, and cellular repair, making it a powerhouse for those struggling with fatigue, PMS, fertility challenges, or even a sluggish metabolism.  The heme iron in liver is not as high as in spleen- so if you are deficient in iron, it is good to use a combination of both. 

 

Beef Spleen Benefits: Iron, Immunity & Blood Building

Beef spleen is a hidden gem for those needing immune and iron support. Traditionally used in both Western herbalism and Chinese medicine, spleen nourishes the blood, supports digestion and enhances vitality. 

Key benefits of spleen:

• High heme iron and ferritin – increases energy, combats anemia and iron deficiency conditions
• Immune peptides and splenic factors – balance immune response
• Zinc, selenium, and B12 – boost detox, thyroid, and antioxidant status

If you experience fatigue, pale skin, or recurrent infections, spleen can be deeply restorative.

 

Grass-Fed vs. Grain-Fed: Why It Matters

The nutrient profile of organ meats depends heavily on how the animal is raised.
Grass-fed, pasture-raised beef organs contain:

• Up to 4x more omega-3 fatty acids
• Higher levels of vitamin K2, CLA, and antioxidants
• No synthetic hormones, antibiotics, or pesticide residues

That’s why I only recommend formulas that use organic, grass-fed cattle from regenerative farms vaccine free, ensuring you receive clean, ethical, and potent nourishment.

 

Whole-Food Synergy vs. Synthetic Vitamins

Synthetic vitamins isolate single compounds, while organ-based nutrition delivers nutrients in biological harmony, just as your body recognizes them.

For example:

• Iron from spleen is balanced with copper and zinc, preventing oxidation.
• Vitamin A from liver is true retinol, not beta-carotene (which many don’t convert efficiently).
• Every nutrient works synergistically, improving absorption and minimizing waste.

This is why people often notice better energy, mental clarity, glowing skin, and hormonal balance after switching from synthetic supplements to whole-food organ blends.

 

Who Benefits Most from Organ Supplements

You may benefit from a grass-fed organ complex if you:

• Feel fatigued, anemic, or burnt out
• Have low thyroid or hormone imbalance
• Struggle with poor nutrient absorption or low stomach acid
• Are pregnant, postpartum, or planning fertility support
• Train hard or live under chronic stress

Organ blends restore vitality by nourishing your blood, adrenals, liver, and mitochondria the root of your energy system.

 

Are Organ Supplements Safe Long-Term?

When sourced well and taken in sensible amounts, grass-fed organ supplements are safe and deeply nourishing. However, because organs like the liver and spleen are so nutrient-dense, balance matters. Overdoing them can lead to vitamin A buildup, iron overload, or purine-related issues in sensitive individuals, which can lead to gout. To stay safe, choose organic, grass-fed sources, use moderate daily doses, and take breaks through the year. It’s also wise to check iron and vitamin A levels periodically if you take them long-term. As with all supplements, quality and balance are the key to a lasting benefit.

 

Back to Our Roots

Organ meats are more than food they are functional nutrition designed by nature to restore balance, vitality, and resilience.

By using organic, grass-fed beef liver and spleen, we’re bringing ancient nourishment into the modern world helping your body rebuild from the inside out.
