WHY YOU NEED TO EAT BEEF LIVER
What if there was one food that could increase testosterone, improve fertility, supercharge cognitive function, fight acne, fend off oxidative stress and cure veganism?
It exists…
A thread
There’s a reason why hunter gatherers prized it as sacred, offering it to growing children and nursing mothers
And why wolves eat the liver before anything else
Even children used to love liver, begging for it like fruit rollups today after hunters returned with the first kill.
What did they know that we don’t?
Today we live in a soy-ciety…with soy-entists telling us that animal products are killing us and that pills will help us instead.
They myopically focus on calories or macronutrients and that’s because they know the foods they recommend are totally devoid of MICROnutrients.
However, without nutrients your mitochondria literally cannot function properly…which means skin issues, digestive problems, brain issues, low energy levels.
Today we’re OVERFED but undernourished...and this is why many overweight people are still hungry all the time.
Many people turn to vegetables for nutrients, but beef liver puts them all to shame.
And unlike vegetables it is not full of gut irritating, metabolism destroying, nutrient blocking anti nutrients
It’s remarkable how many of the most critical nutrients for mitochondria function liver has that you cannot find elsewhere
Without eating liver, you're likely deficient in nutrients such as:
vitamin a retinol
riboflavin
vitamin b5
vitamin b6
folate
choline
copper
vitamin k2
It’s almost like we were made to eat liver…
All your ancestors knew this in their bones, from the rush of health and energy they felt every time they bit into beef liver…
Let me highlight some of these nutrients to show you some of the issues that may emerge without them.
VITAMIN A
Vitamin A is the one of the most important vitamins in the world, and almost nobody is eating it in its most bioavailable form: retinol.
It is crucial for:
- Activating vitamin D
- Skin health
- Immune function
- Eyesight
(also how my skin looks so smooth)
But one role I will highlight is its role in youth hormone synthesis.
Vitamin A is required to synthesize all the hormones that keep you young & fertile..makes sense why testosterone and fertility is on the decline.
COPPER
Copper is one of the most underrated minerals, critical for over 20 enzymes such as:
cytochrome c oxidase: required for ATP generation
lysyl oxidase: collagen synthesis
SOD: master antioxidant
Ferroxidase: protect against the toxic iron overload today
Without copper you cannot generate optimal amounts of ATP, synthesize collagen or protect yourself against oxidative damage…and nobody is eating copper today.
Choline: brain development, liver function, DNA synthesis, a healthy nervous system, fat transportation and metabolism, cell structure, and cell messaging.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)- generation of ATP from carbs and fats, helps to make protein
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)- make red blood cells, transporting nutrients into the cell, dopamine synthesis
Vitamin B7 (biotin) -- hair, skin, nails, energy generation
Vitamin B9 (folate)- DNA synthesis, methylation, anti inflammatory
This is why some of the studies on beef liver consumption have been so breathtakingly beneficial
This one showed that rats given beef liver swam 10x longer than those who weren't
This study showed that men who eat liver in addition to red meat had a 50% higher sperm count
And in this final one, rats were given lethal doses of xrays…the ones who were fed beef liver survived significantly longer.
This is seriously the closest thing to nutritional magic I’ve ever seen.
Throw your multivitamin away.
Just 1 food, beef liver, can eliminate so many common nutrient deficiencies and literally bring people out of deathly states.
I feel my best eating a little bit every single day.
Which is why I made these liver crisps....the first beef liver that tastes good.
