FAQ's

Of course you can. Some of us need a bit more, some a bit less. Our supplements are natural meat products and can easily be taken in combination with each other.

Listen to your body, if you take a combination and feel great then you are probably on the right tracks.

Play around with what you take and how much you take. What is good for you may be totally different to what I need.

Each of us has a unique physiology and this means we all have different needs. Who are we to know what will be right for you?

All our products are certified EU organic and manufactured in a HAACP certified facility and the desiccated products have microbiology tests routinely.

Our customers commonly notice a boost in energy and vitality.

But how should you feel when you are making good health choices? These supplements offer an important factor in good nutrition. If you are addressing all the factors in your life to make them healthy such as your diet, exercise, environment, healthy relationships etc then you will begin to discover the power and abundant energy of vibrant good health.

Our general dosage instructions would be to take 8 capsules a day. Each capsule contains 400mg of desiccated product giving a daily dose of 3200mg. However, if you have never used organ supplements before you may choose to start with two capsules a day, adding a capsule a day until you get to 8 capsules. This is called titrating your dose.

It may be that you find taking half of what we suggest works great for you, it may be you need to take more. That is fine.

You can take them on an empty stomach since you are simply eating a food and we would recommend you take them in the morning.
You may want to take half in the morning and half in the afternoon. That is perfectly acceptable.

You may wish to avoid taking them in the evening in case you get such a boost that it interferes with sleep.

Of course, our Hypnos nootropic drink should be taken before bed.

Our products are desiccated food. We have put them in capsules for ease of use and because modern palates may find organ meats challenging to eat. They are not an artificial or super concentrated vitamin supplement.

There are approximately 15-20g of organ meats in our daily dose. This will easily provide you with all your important micronutrients in a week. If you are happy to eat organ meats too, around 100g of liver weekly will be a fantastic addition on top of this.

It is fine to change your amounts without causing yourself any problems. We are all different and have different needs – listen to your body.

We do not. Would you expect to see any changes when taking a few days’ worth of a product? We want to encourage you to make good health choices that last a lifetime. Do you want to sample good health or be a model of good health?

Subscribing is the best way to save money and is easy to set up. It also means you never need to remember to order, we do all the remembering for you! Each product lasts a month so we will deliver to you every month hassle free.

Yes, but if you have any concerns, please ask your GP or trusted health professional.

We encourage you to take these supplements daily for maximum effect.

Nick sometimes recommends taking an occasional break for a few days to a week every three months or so. This is advice he gives about ANY supplements you may be taking and it is not specific to Carnicopia’s range.

Yes, of course they can (with the exception of HYPNOS). Our evolutionary journey meant children would have eaten organ meats when they were weaned from their mother’s breast. Undoubtedly these nutrient rich foods would have helped infants and young children thrive.

Our modern world has turned its back on these powerful foods. Now you can hand back our ancestral heritage to your children.

Use one to two capsules a day. If they cannot swallow the capsules, just open them, and add the contents to food or drink as suits your child’s taste.

Avoid adding the contents to very hot food as this may damage some of the nutrients.

Yes, you can. They are safe to travel with in hand luggage.

All our products have a best before date on the bottle and are usually good for at least 12-18 months.

No. The contents of each capsule are desiccated which means they have no moisture content. This means they cannot ‘go off’ and can be stored at room temperature.

Our organ meat supplements come from a farm and herd where regenerative agriculture is practised. The animals live a natural life in harmony with themselves and nature. Just like all farming used to be. This is a sustainable model that gives as much goodness back to the soil as it takes.

This virtuous circle does not involve huge agribusiness corporations. It is about communities and the land working as one.

We believe this is a healthy model that can change our world. It is local and seasonal, and it is gentle on all aspects of nature. It is based on respect for all living beings.

Be cautious about “googling” the answer for this as you will find misleading information which mistakenly likens natural Vitamin A found in liver with synthetic / artificial vitamin A. We cannot find any evidence of a toxic effect from eating liver while pregnant.

For those of you who like to do a bit of digging - we have a friendly challenge: Please go to any scientific research library in the world and find us a piece of research about Vitamin A that refers to and has involved liver.

If you find one, please send it to us at enquiries@carnicopia.co.uk so we can examine it and update this page.

If it is genuine research that has been well put together, we will give the first person that brings it to our attention a free gift.

Of course - it pays to make conscious choices throughout your life and especially when you are growing a beautiful baby inside!

Therefore, please make sensible, conscious choices. You do not need to eat liver every day and you can take an occasional liver supplement that is as natural as it gets without any concerns.

This piece from Lily Nicholls, a registered dietician/nutritionist is excellent, and you may wish to get her book for excellent, well-balanced information about what to eat when pregnant lilynicholsrdn.com/liver-organ-meat/

Strictly speaking, taking in any calories while you are fasting is breaking your fast. However, a tiny number of calories requires so little attention from your body that it will not interfere with all the repair and regenerating mechanisms that are occurring whilst you are fasting.

You will not have a negative effect on your fast if you take a dose of our capsules.

Your body uses 70% of its energy to digest food but there are so little being taken in with our recommended dose that it will not have to divert too much energy to digest them.

Rest easy, maintain your use of powerful fasts and you will reap all the benefits.

Our supplements are sourced from organic grass-fed, grass-finished cows raised on regenerative farms in Europe that are given no antibiotics, hormones, or GMO feeds.

None of our supplements have additives, fillers or preservatives and they are manufactured to the highest standards with care.

While we encourage you to eat freshly sourced organ meats as part of your diet, the truth is there is only one major difference between our supplements and fresh organs: their moisture content.

All the myriad of nutrients remain in place for your body to utilise, truly a full spectrum supplement, just as nature intended.

It is also worth bearing in mind that many people struggle to include fresh organs in their diet for a variety of reasons. For some, it comes down to not being able to palate the taste - for others, regularly sourcing organic, grass-fed organ meats is simply not possible. In these instances - the Carnicopia range is perfect. It is also perfect when travelling to ensure your nutritional needs are still being met.

All the remarkable nutrients in our organ products are in an identical form as those which the human body uses. The specific blend and presence of the various vitamins, minerals, growth factors and peptides simply cannot be replicated by a multivitamin.

Most multivitamins use synthetic variants that are both inferior but also harder for your body to assimilate. This is known as bioavailability and our products have the highest bioavailability nature can provide.

Aside from a complex offering of vitamins there are a myriad of molecules and peptides that aid repair, growth, and development of your tissues. Multivitamins do not have this.

Truly, nature knows best, and we turn our back on her at our peril.
