How do I take the Hunter & Gather organ capsules?
We recommend taking 2-6 capsules per day (you can spread this out if you choose too).
This can be before, with or after a meal.
We advise taking the capsules with water or another drink of choice.
What should I do if I cannot swallow capsules?
You can simply open the capsules and mix the contents in a smoothie or in your food such as a bolognese.
Are freeze-dried organs safe to eat?
Yes! When animals are very healthy, grass-fed & finished, and live a free-roaming life as nature intended, the health of the animals is superior to that of factory-farmed animals.
What’s more, every batch of our organ capsules are lab tested to ensure that they are free from pathogens and safe for us humans to eat.
How do you make your organ capsules?
Using the finest organs from free-roaming, grass-fed, and finished Icelandic lamb, the organs are dressed, sliced, and then freeze-dried here in the UK where they are then milled into a powder. This powder is then filled into gelatin capsules.
It’s as simple as that and we never use any fillers, binders, flow agents, or additives.
What is DAO (Diaminine Oxidase)?
DAO is the main enzyme that heps to metabolise histamines that are ingested and released from interal histamine storage cells.
In healthy individuals with optimal DAO production, histamine rich foods are degraded quickly.
However, people, such as Jeff our co-founder, has low functional DAO activity (as determined by genetic testing) leading to an increased risk of suffering histamine intolerance or food histaminosis.
Symptoms such as persistent runny nose, migraine, GI disorders, itchy skin, cystic acne, anxiety, and fatigue have been linked to histamine intolerance.
Supplemental DAO is known to be helpful to avoid adverse effects from histamine rich foods.
Tony Wrighton, Sky Sports News presenter, health podcaster, author, and histamine intolerant wrote an insightful article for us on Histamine Intolerance.
Why are there no longer herbs in this product?
After feedback from several customers, we decided to remove the very costly herbs so we could increase the nutritional value of these capsules whilst allowing us to reduce the cost to our customers.
What does synergistic mean?
Vitamins, minerals, and nutrients often work in tandem with each other yet the vitamin and nutrition industries like to talk about them in isolation.
This can lead to significant deficiencies in certain types or the good intentions of supplementation being useless.
Whole food, nose-to-tail nutrition such as offal and organ meat contain these nutrients as nature intended.
Some synergistic vitamins/minerals combinations you might have heard of include;
- Copper & Zinc
- B12 & Folate
- Vitamin D & K
- Magnesium, Sodium, and Potassium
