Primal Iron - Grass Fed Beef Spleen

Nutritionally speaking, they are virtually identical. The only real difference is the removal of water, which actually makes the freeze-dried powder a highly concentrated source of nutrition.

We use a gentle, chemical-free freeze-drying process. This safely extracts the moisture from the raw organ while completely locking in its powerful, naturally occurring nutritional profile, including its exceptionally high levels of bioavailable heme iron.

Because the water weight has been removed, our freeze-dried spleen powder is incredibly nutrient-dense. Taking our daily capsules provides the exact same foundational nutrition as eating premium, fresh raw spleen, but in a highly convenient form that skips the challenging taste, texture, and meal prep!

Yes, it can be a fantastic way to support them with simple and nutritious whole foods.

Because Primal Iron is simply 100% pure, freeze-dried beef spleen, it is a nutrient-dense whole food. It provides a highly bioavailable source of naturally occurring heme iron and B-vitamins.

However, because every teenager's nutritional needs and development rates are completely unique, we always recommend checking in with your healthcare practitioner or family doctor before introducing any new food.

Beef spleen is a traditional wholefood valued for its unique nutrient profile, particularly its naturally occurring heme iron and vitamin B12. When freeze-dried, it retains its full spectrum of nutrients in a form the body can readily absorb.

Key Nutrients Naturally Found in Beef Spleen:

• Heme Iron 
• Vitamin B12 
• Zinc & Copper 
• Selenium 
• Small amounts of Vitamin C

Our beef spleen comes from 100% grass-fed, grass-finished Tasmanian cattle and is freeze-dried in small batches for maximum purity.

Freeze dried beef spleen is available in both capsule and powder form, and the taste experience can vary depending on which you choose.

• Capsules: Most people find beef spleen capsules virtually tasteless. They’re an easy and convenient way to get the benefits of organ meats without the flavour. Simply swallow with water, just like any other supplement.
• Powder: Freeze-dried beef spleen powder has a rich, earthy flavour that’s true to its natural source. While some people enjoy the taste in savoury blends, others prefer to mix it into smoothies, broths, or sauces to mask the flavour.

Whether you choose capsules or powder, beef spleen is valued more for its nutrient density than its taste. Tip: If you're sensitive to taste or short on time, capsules are the most neutral option.

Beef spleen can be consumed at any time of day, but many people prefer to take them in the morning or with their first meal.

Because beef spleen is naturally rich in vitamin B12, iron, and other energising nutrients, taking it earlier in the day may avoid any potential for overstimulation at night.

Freeze dried beef spleen is a wholefood source of nutrients making them suitable for long-term daily support.

Yes — our beef liver products are sourced from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, pasture-raised Tasmanian cattle that are not supplemented with Bovaer® or other synthetic feed additives.

We work closely with local farms that focus on natural, traditional grazing practices. This ensures the purity of our products while maintaining full transparency across the supply chain, from paddock to capsule.

No hormones, no antibiotics, no synthetic feed additives, just real food the way nature intended.

While we source our organs exclusively from pristine, pasture-raised cattle in Tasmania, we do not rely on "certified organic" labels. Here is why:

Organic certification is a promise about how the farm is managed, but it does not guarantee that the final capsule is actually free from environmental contaminants. We prefer proof over promises.

Instead of paying for an organic logo, we invest in rigorous, independent lab testing. We screen our finished products using state-of-the-art ICP-MS technology to test for 32 heavy metals (like Lead and Mercury) and agricultural chemicals (like Glyphosate) to guarantee absolute purity.

You never have to take our word for it, you can view our unedited, zero-glyphosate lab results right here.

Yes, freeze dried beef spleen is one of the richest natural sources of heme iron. A small daily serve provides meaningful amounts of iron to support your dietary intake through real, nutrient-dense food.

Our beef spleen is sourced from 100% grass-fed, grass-finished Australian cattle and gently freeze-dried to preserve its naturally occurring nutrients with no additives or fillers.

Beef spleen is a natural source of whole food nutrients, making beef spleen a valuable addition to a nutrient-dense diet.

Unlike beef liver, beef spleen contains no vitamin A, making it an appealing alternative for those mindful of retinol intake during pregnancy.

As always, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before adding beef spleen to your daily diet during pregnancy, to ensure they align with your individual dietary needs and prenatal care plan.

Our beef spleen sproducts are made using a careful, low-temperature freeze-drying process that preserves the natural integrity of the nutrients without the use of heat, additives, or synthetic preservatives.

Here’s how we do it:

Step-by-Step Production Process:

• 1. Sourced Locally: We use 100% grass-fed & grass-finished, pasture-raised beef spleen from Tasmanian farms that meet strict animal welfare and food safety standards.
• 2. Fresh Processing: The spleen is trimmed, gently cleaned, and frozen shortly after harvest to maintain freshness and nutrient quality.
• 3. Freeze-Dried for Potency: Through sublimation, moisture is removed at low temperatures to preserve heat-sensitive vitamins like B12 and folate.
• 4. Milled and Encapsulated (or Powdered): The dried spleen is finely ground and packed into capsules or jars — with no binders, fillers, or flow agents.
• 5. Packed in Our Byron Bay Facility: We manufacture in-house to maintain full control over quality and consistency, from raw ingredient to finished product.

Every batch is third-party tested for safety and packaged in our purpose-built Byron Bay facility ensuring transparency, traceability, and trust.

Both capsules and powder contain the same wholefood beef spleen but differ in format, convenience, and flexibility, depending on your lifestyle and preferences.

Beef Spleen Capsules:

• Pre-measured and easy to take
• No taste or smell, ideal if you’re sensitive to flavour
• Great for travel or daily routines

Beef Spleen Powder:

• Versatile for adding to food (e.g. smoothies, bone broth, patties)
• Slightly more economical per gram
• Mild organ flavour — best for those who are comfortable with natural tastes

Whether you prefer convenience or culinary creativity, both formats provide the same freeze-dried, nutrient-dense spleen, sourced from grass-fed & grass-finished Australian cattle and made without additives or fillers.
