I would give 10 stars if I could!!
Not just for the products, but for the company. I have a genetic condition that has caused me to have emphysema and liver disease, along with other medical issues. I receive infusions every week, but they leave me tired and weak. When I say tired, it's not the "I could take a nap" tired, it's the "one minute you're awake, the next you're asleep" tired... I found this out soon after my first infusion when I woke up having run over a curb. I take a lot of meds, which certainly doesn't help when it comes to liver disease. I searched for more natural ways to help with liver function, as well as natural energy. When I came across the benefits of beef liver, I was very skeptical, but I was also desperate to feel better. Upon receiving the beef liver capsules (from another company), I was scared to burp for weeks, terrified! Thankfully, there was no taste or aftertaste. I was researching other brands to see if there might be a better choice, and a more affordable choice if this was going to be a lifelong supplement. I emailed Ancestral Supplements and within hours, Brian, the owner, emailed me. He was so enthusiastic about the products and very positive they would help me. This wasn't just a short answer in an email, he was very detailed and suggested a few different products, but said if I could only do one, to do the beef organs. Within less than 2 weeks of starting to take them (and still no aftertaste, but I admit, it took me a while to get over the fear of burping lol), I started to notice significant changes in my health, body and my well being in general. First and foremost, my fatigue almost disappeared. I still have some for a little while after my infusion, but it is night and day to how I felt before, and the rest of the week I don't feel that constant drain. My blood pressure came down and stayed consistent (I'm on 2 BP meds and still could not get to a normal BP level). I have colitis and was noticing less trips to the bathroom, almost back to that of a "normal" person. I was sleeping better as well. Another thing I did not expect was that I was finally able to lose some weight. I'm on many meds that either cause weight gain, or make it harder to lose, add that to the inflammation and it would take forever to lose a pound. Weight loss started happening at a normal rate (I also eat a healthy diet, but exercise is limited for the time being... but having more energy is helping me get in more steps, which is a significant improvement!!!). I was also pre-menopausal, with very erratic menses, and when they did come, they were brutal. Apparently I'm no longer pre-meno and back to a fully normal cycle. I feel better than any multi-vitamin or supplement has ever made me feel. Even though there is some liver in the beef organs products, because I do have liver disease, I also take the additional beef liver supplement by Ancestral. After the first month, I added the bone marrow which has made such a difference in my hair (not so much falls out and it looks much healthier) as well as my skin. I've now added pancreas and spleen. I go in for my physical next month and will find out which medications I can discontinue. I've already removed my anti-depressant as well as omeprazole. My doctor feels certain he will remove me from at least 1 if not both of my blood pressure meds. On top of all of that, I had pre-diabetes and was having to check my sugar several times a day...that is a thing of the past now and I'm no longer in the pre-diabetes range. Last month I was out of town, only thinking I would be gone for 4 days and was gone for 12. I brought enough for 6 days, and on day 8-9, I could feel myself becoming more lethargic and almost like I was coming down with something. I never thought I would find myself missing beef organs!!!! As far as the company goes, after researching them as well as reading about their practices and the emphasis they put on getting the most qualities organs... as well as focusing on small batch processing (which in my opinion, is crucial when it comes to supplements, but especially supplements like this). So yes, sometimes things are out of stock but not for long. There is some comfort in knowing that what I'm taking hasn't been sitting on shelves for months and months on end. I suggest reading up on the products, check out their website and try for yourself. For me, starting off with the beef organs was a good choice. Then once I started adding others, I could feel what the differences were. This company stands behind their products and is very good about answering questions if you aren't sure what's best for you. I always recommend this to my friends.
