Dried beef kidney is freeze-dried, finely ground beef kidney tissue. Our product consists of 100 % organic beef kidney from Estonian pasture farming, and each capsule contains 400 mg of kidney powder. Apart from the kidney and the beef gelatine capsule shell, the product contains nothing else.
Natural vitamin B12, selenium and riboflavin
Organ meats are among the most natural sources of vitamin B12, and kidney is no exception. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to normal function of the nervous system, to normal red blood cell formation and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
With the full daily serving of 8 capsules, beef kidney also provides natural selenium and riboflavin. Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function, to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Beef kidney in traditional cooking
In England it is known from steak and kidney pie, in Switzerland and Germany from kidneys in cream sauce or kidney goulash. Beef kidneys were long an established and affordable part of everyday cooking. Because they have to be soaked before cooking and have a strong taste of their own, they have largely disappeared today. Our capsules bring them back into the diet, without any recipe or preparation.
Why freeze-dried?
Freeze-drying removes the water from the kidney at very low temperatures, without heating it. Heat-sensitive components are largely preserved. What remains is a concentrated kidney powder that keeps well, is neutral in taste and can be dosed precisely.
Quality from organic pasture farming
Our beef kidneys come from grass-fed cattle from Estonian organic pasture farming. Each capsule contains only the freeze-dried kidney, with no fillers, anti-caking agents or colourings. In addition, we have the product lab-tested for nutrients and purity (see lab analyses and certificates).
Who are beef kidney capsules for?
Beef kidney capsules are for anyone who wants to include organ meats in their diet following the nose-to-tail principle but does not want to prepare kidney themselves or does not like its taste. They suit everyone who wants natural vitamin B12 from real food rather than from synthetic single-nutrient products. As the capsule shell is made of beef gelatine, the product is not vegetarian.
