Anyone familiar with Liver Tablets? If so..do you think Ultra 40 by Beverly International is a good one? What has been your choice to what worked good for you?
I appreciate your input.

This takes some getting used to! There are two basic methods. One calls for freezing the liver for 14 days in large chunks. (Fourteen days will ensure the elimination of pathogens and parasites.) You can then grate the liver on the small holes of a grater and add it to milk or juice, or even hot cereal. A teaspoon or two of grated raw liver can be added to baby’s egg yolk, or even to mashed vegetables.The second method turns liver into pills! Cut fresh liver into pea-sized pieces and freeze for 14 days. Swallow like vitamin pills.
For both methods, the liver should be of the highest quality available and very fresh.” As found on the weston a price foundation website.Or make or buy liver pate!

I just find it very difficult to eat liver, that is why I was wandering about the liver tablets, because it’s more of a pill form, and easier to deal with mentally for me of what I am putting into my mouth. I eat mostly chicken and fish and have swayed away from meat because of the prions in it.

I don’t know if this information will be helpful to you: (from the Weston A Price Foundation)
“Beef consumption in England plummeted recently with the ‘Mad Cow Disease” scare. Mad cow disease, or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), is a wasting disease of cattle characterized by nervous disorders and weakness, said to be related to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. Scientists have not been able to link a virus to this disease, so they theorize that an abnormal protein particle called a prion, found in the brains of cattle with BSE and humans with CJD, is the cause. The theory is that these prions are infectious agents, passed along to cows though the practice of animal part feeding and then to humans who eat infected meat, particularly meat from the nervous system, like brain.
There’s a lot wrong with this theory. For one thing, BSE is nonexistent in the USA, where animal part feeding has been going on for almost one hundred years. Another is recorded cases of CJD among vegetarians; yet another is the absence of CJD in the Shetlands where scrapie, a disease similar to BSE, is common in sheep and where potted sheeps brain is a national dish.
The research of Mark Purdey, a diary farmer in England, indicates that the mad cow disease epidemic in England occurred in areas where farmers were forced to treat their cattle with organophosphate pesticides in a warble fly eradication program.20 The warble fly makes holes in the cows’ backs—not dangerous in itself, but it reduces the value of pelts sold to leather manufacturers. These holes are open doors to the spinal cord and organophosphate pesticides are very toxic to the nervous system. By a complex process, these compounds seem to cause certain proteins to fold in pathological ways—these are the prions that are found in the brains of animals with BSE and humans with CJD. Mineral deficiencies are also involved, particularly magnesium, which is a mineral that protects the nervous system. Finally, a similar disease occurs among wild animals living in areas of volcanic soils, whose diets are high in aluminum and manganese, minerals known to be toxic to the nervous system. Clusters of human CJD cases are also found in areas where the soil has mineral imbalances, where there are cement factories and where high levels of organophosphate insecticides have been used.
So the answer to CJD and BSE is good soil management and the elimination of neurotoxic compounds in farming—but it’s easier to just blame it on beef. By the way, now that animal part feeding has been outlawed, feedlot operators are turning to soy feeds as a protein substitute. Soy is very toxic to cows’ livers. Does the use of soy in cattle feeding explain why beef—lean beef—has become politically correct again? After all, the other politically correct meats—chicken and salmon—use up vast quantities of soybean meal in battery feeding and fish farming. “
In short what I take away from that is eat organic, grass-fed beef. And if you can’t stomach it then do try the desiccated liver! Here’s to good health!

Many of the figure competitors as well as my girl freind uses them with great success when she is prepping for a show. I like them because they are good source of heme iron and are very useable by the body.
