Supports Gallbladder

This supplement is AMAZING for SIBO and GI issues.I have been dealing with mold toxicity and the domino effect from that causing mast cell activation, which causes so much inflammation in the GI tract that motility gets impaired and also mold toxins, candida toxins and bacteria toxins actually cause cholestasis or impaired bile flow. the impaired bile flow due to the toxins makes SIBO worse because HCL and bile are the first two defenses that the body has against pathogens so you can see this becomes an awful domino effect of negative problems. Not only that, but the everyone with SIBO has an issue with Migrating Motor Complex (MMC) not functioning properly, this is basically the flushing in the small intestines that happens when you are fasting. This is how the Small intestines flush debris out of themselves to prevent SIBO. the body releases bile to initiate the 3rd stage of the MMC...so you can see if your bile is impaired due to toxins (google cholestasis and LPS/lipopolysacharide for the studies) that the MMC is also impaired and your intestines can't clean themselves out properly with insufficient bile flow. Also the inflammation in the small intestines causes impaired brush border enzyme output. Both bile impairment and lessened enzymes cause greater pathogen issues in the gut because whatever you don't digest properly, something else will, bacteria/yeast etc will grow as they are able to eat the food that sits undigested. That being said taking this gallbladder supplement has been so amazing for me and given me healing that nothing else has for SIBO and my GI tract. I had been taking so many things over the years, like: enzymes (Klaire Labs Vitalzymes complete was the only enzyme where the pepsidase was gentle enough on my inflamed GI tract), I have been taking berbercap by Thorne for SIBO, Berberine complex by integrative therapeutics for SIBO, binders for the mold and candida toxins (activated charcoal by integrative therapeutics, zeobind (dr.klinghard't zeolite), bentonite by VE irons called Detoxificant or bentonite by yerba prima and organic clean chlorella SL by healthranger. SBI protect powder by ortho molecular (don't buy SBI on amazon unless you want to get ripped off) Anyways, I have had some good improvement but NOTHING brought back motility for me and helped my gut as much as this Gallbladder supplement. There are many other things I could take for SIBO and mold but I am extremely sensitive due to the mast ell activation so I can't take a lot of things (like BFB-1 and BFB-2 essential oils for biofilm which I highly recommend to anyone..see supreme nutritions website), That being said I have been good on certain dosages of the ancestral supplements products. The gallbladder product immediately restored a motility and digestion for me that I haven't had in a long time. Within a about 4 weeks I had a flat stomach again for the first time in FIVE years!!!. I saw improvement in the first week but after 4 weeks it was like WOW. Now that is with a super intense diet that avoids fodmaps and sugars. I essentially eat lettuces, low fodmap green veggies, broccoli only 1.6oz at a time bc more than that is high fodmap and pasture raised organic eggs, chicken, lamb and beef. If I eat other things the SIBO makes my belly blow up but still since being on this GALLBLADDER supplement the effects are MUCH less and if I stick to the diet that doesn't feed pathogens in my gut , then I experience healing and moving forward to where I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and restoration of my GI tract. I still have to go through with all the mold protocal that Dr. Neil Nathan has given us in our appointments and also can be found in his book TOXIC. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for this product and for so many of this company's supplements which have brought about so much healing for our family. I take kidney, thymus and this gallbladder. My kids and husband take the organs. There is healing that these items bring that is incredible. I have experienced dramatic shifts in my health after using these products for a few months. The gallbladder supplement I noticed positive effects in maybe a week or less. A friend of mine with SIBO experienced the same thing. Thank you so much to Brian, the owner for always being so beyond helpful and amazing. I am so grateful to this company for providing keys to healing for my whole family. We are customers for life. Also, I had tried many other ox bile supplements and nothing has helped like this product. I don't know what the magic is in the gallbladder and liver being in there and the purity of the bile but this has restored for me a motility and health to my GI tract that nothing else has. also other bile products caused major stomach issues for me in the past, like run to the bathroom runs (in the same doses that are in this product) I have no idea why this product is so amazing and has done so much for me compared to other ox bile supplements, but all I can say is that I am so grateful for this company

I’ve been strictly on an animal-based diet for over 2.5 years now and have been overjoyed to heal numerous health issues and restore my youthful glow. However, I was still struggling with a few unresolved issues. This is why I gave Ancestral Supplements a shot. I reached out to the company with questions about where to start. Brian was prompt, thorough, generous, and genuine in his response. I’ve not experienced this level of customer care from a company in a long time. Thank you for the caring authenticity. About a week into taking Bone Marrow, Organs, and Gallbladder I felt happy mood surges throughout the day, strong, stable energy, a feeling that my brain function was “crisp and online” immediately upon waking, waking before my alarm, deeper sleep, and more vivid dreams with an ability to recall them. Some days I experienced slight detox symptoms (headache, tight muscles, low mood, etc.) but they quickly cleared by the following day. Next, I added Collagen, Pancreas, and Thyroid. I’ve since noticed effortless digestion and an improvement in my body temperature regulation. I used to turn ice cold after eating or drinking my morning coffee and noticed that this reaction is greatly decreased. My hair, which was falling at an alarming rate, dry, brittle, thinning, and slow to grow is looking shiny, vibrant, soft and full of body. My stylist commented completely unprompted that I have a noticeable amount of new growth and proceeded to show me the proof - she was surprised by this. Funnily, my stylists told me that I needed to take Biotin pills to improve my hair. I tried them but they never worked. A strange sort of rash down both of my legs which had been frustratingly impossible to manage for a couple of years and was leaving scars has now disappeared only a few weeks into taking these organs. I noticed today that the last twinges of knee pain have faded away. I found myself sprinting down my staircase when I normally go carefully because even after 2+ years on carnivore I still had a bit of pain. I am 100% positive that everything I am noticing is due to the addition of these organs because I've changed nothing else in my lifestyle prior. I typically avoided taking pills/supplements because as they would digest in my system I would taste the ickiness of the pill contents. Not only do these organs digest effortlessly, but there hasn’t been an unpleasant aftertaste. After swallowing them (either with a fatty coffee or food), I sort of forget that I took them until I feel that now familiar surge in my mood/energy/sense of wellbeing. As a final thought, I have tried many supplements, diets, medications, and products over the course of my life and never felt different in a long-term sustainable, healthy way - no matter the claimed quality or high price tag paid. Meds came with side effects and questionable chemicals while supplements were not effective and, therefore, a waste of money. I giggle now because I once took iron supplements as advised by my doctor specifically to increase my iron status then was subsequently denied the opportunity to give blood because my iron was too low. Oh the irony! I’ve also given many other lifestyle changes a try desperate to fix various health problems. After falling for the claims of health improvements to be experienced with increasing my plant intake, I eagerly tried juicing (esp. green juices), superfood smoothies, the vegan diet, the vegetarian diet, daily massive salads, etc. My health deteriorated further as I ingested more plants. Nothing restored my physical and mental health back to prime except for A) a whole foods animal-based diet (carnivore/zero carb), and B) adding these organs from Ancestral Supplements - my body doesn't lie - end of story. I feel truly grateful to be where I am and at my current level of health and only wish I could have uncovered these answers years ago and saved myself a ton of pain and heartache:-) About the price and comments that these are expensive, I choose to see it this way for myself: A) I am saving myself long term health issues and future medical bills, and B) these are the only supplements I've ever used that actually bring swift and powerful results C) I feel amazing and my body loves the nutrition. I've wasted hundreds of dollars on expensive, useless pills from both well-meaning conventional doctors and functional medicine practitioners. I am so happy for the privilege to purchase these little beauties. Note: This review will be found on multiple Ancestral Supplement pages as I threw myself into ordering many different organs at once. I've since added Colostrum, Adrenal, and Brain UPDATE: 2/2021: I feel more limber now despite quitting my 3-session-per-week yoga practice over 2 years ago. My muscles stay comfortable and relaxed as long as I take these supplements even in times of stress. My slow digestion and indigestion have both cleared up massively - such a relief! My mood has improved as I recently noticed that I am not as affected by cloudy, dreary, or rainy (sunless) weather - though I will always appreciate a healthy dose of sunshine!

We first heard about Ancestral Supplements through our functional medicine doctor. We then started reading articles on Ancestral’s website and learned about the “nose-to-tail” philosopy and “like supports like”. We were impressed with the company’s commitment to the highest quality and purity standards. After reading a lot of amazing Amazon reviews on different products, we decided we had to get started. For me, I’ve had to start with one capsule per day. Each week, I have typically been able to increase my dose by one capsule. The reason I have had to progress that slowly is because some of the AS supplements are quite energizing. I have been dealing with insomnia, so it was necessary for me to work up very slowly so as not to negatively affect my sleep. As long as I follow this incremental approach, the supplements don’t affect my sleep. In fact, over the last few months my sleep has been gradually improving! At first, I was concerned about how long it would take to work up to the number of capsules I wanted to take of each supplement, but persistence has definitely paid off, because now I’m taking quite a few capsules each day. Although I’m not taking the full 6 cap serving size for most of the supplements, I’m getting a very broad range of support with multiple products. As Brian, Ancestral Supplement’s owner, said, “The greater variety of nose-to-tail foods we eat, the better we fill the nutritional gaps of the modern world”. This makes perfect sense, especially when considering the wisdom of “like support like”. Brian has been very helpful to answer any questions I’ve had along the way over these last few months. He has been a real encouragement. He definitely lives the lifestyle that he teaches, and is all about excellence in the way he runs his company. Based on the areas of health that I want to target for extra support, I’m currently taking: Brain (3), Kidney (3), Organs (3), Prostate (3), Bone & Marrow (3), Collagen (3), Trachea (3), MOFO (2), Pancreas (1), Gallbladder (1), Thyroid (1), Tallow (2), and Colostrum (3-6). Since several of the products have different amounts of Liver in them, by taking the above products in those quantities, I’m actually getting more than 3000mg of Liver each day (which is equivalent to a 6 cap serving of Liver per day). So glad to have discovered this powerful system of nutritional support!

At the beginning of February, 2019 I started taking these 5 Ancestral Supplements - 2x each per day for the first month, now 1x each per day: 1. Kidney 2. Thymus 3. Beef Liver 4. Beef Pancreas 5. Beef Spleen Since April, 2019 I've added these 6 - 2x each per day except the beef brain, which I'm taking 1x day: 6. Bone Marrow 7. Gallbladder 8. Beef Brain 9. Trachea 10. Beef Heart 11. Beef Lung I noticed the biggest difference when I started taking the Bone Marrow and Gallbladder - the Bone Marrow arrived first and within 2 days I had more energy, better digestion, and my skin started glowing. A couple days later, the Gallbladder arrived and within a day and consistently since I have been more regular in the mornings and feel like my bowel movements are "complete." So I'll say those two are my favorites! How I felt before: at the beginning of January, 2019 I started having a low-level headache and brain fog. I paid attention because I never get headaches. Then I started feeling really tired. My tonsils (especially on the left side) became enlarged and beefy red with white spots towards the end of January. For several months prior I was getting geographic tongue periodically - not sure if it was related but it was definitely agitated by alcohol, sugar, and excessive dairy. My doctor prescribed me a 10-day course of amoxicillin and the tonsil issue went away but my lymphs (more so on left side) became swollen and tender as soon as I finished the antibiotics. I also had extreme fatigue and was sleeping 9-10 hours at night and then again for hours during the day. My digestion seemed even more sluggish than usual. It felt like my body was shutting down. I went and got blood tests and STD tests and everything was in the normal ranges and negative, respectively. I thought it could be mono because the symptoms matched almost perfectly but that test came out negative. I wouldn't be surprised if whatever is happening (and hopefully fading) is stress-related. The last 3 years have been challenging to say the least. I've gotten divorced, moved 4 times, changed jobs 3 times... at the beginning of February I was in the middle of moving and driving across the country to be closer to family. Maybe it's just my body demanding a break now that it finally feels safe again? Anyway, I ordered the first 5 supplements and they helped me feel like I wasn't dying... if I felt tired or like I was going to crash I took 1 more of each of them and they helped to boost my energy. Throughout March, 2019 it felt like I was steadily improving, no more headaches, lymph swelling going down, less fatigue. Then I decided to order the other 6 supplements after reading other people's reviews. In the last couple of weeks, I have been feeling noticeably better. The geographic tongue is subsiding. I have started exercising again. Not as hardcore as I normally would but I now have the energy to do it and feel more energized when I do. Prior to all of this, I have dealt with some other health issues. Since I was a kid I was a sugar addict... now I move in and out of keto/carnivore but definitely have had to deal with yeast overgrowth and constipation issues because of how much junk I ate in the past. I've gotten acupuncture over the years and all of them have said my spleen was "stagnant" and I had yeast problems. TMI twelve years ago I got parasites from a summer in China. I also dealt with mercury poisoning from eating too much fish in my 20s but levels are back down now. So it feels like my body has old physical stuff it's still healing from and then a layer of emotional trauma that is requiring some healing as well. I'm not sure where I'd be without Ancestral's supplements, they've really helped. Hope this helps someone else.

I didn’t come here to leave a bad review about the company or their products, so I gave them 4 stars, because I know they provide great customer service, others seem to benefit from these supplements, and the seller really believes in their products. However, I want to share my experiences with these products to help others through their journey with them and to point out issues I’ve had. I am reviewing all products I took from Ancestral Supplements here because Amazon is going to put them together anyway. I took the Gallbladder and got headaches and acid reflux. I could taste the ox bile in my throat and I have taken ox bile before so I know it was that. The headaches felt like when I used to take digestive enzymes. It didn’t feel like detox symptoms, but symptoms that were telling me I didn’t need it. I took the Organ Meats product for about a week once a day and then halfway through twice a day. I started feeling itchy and nauseous. I have histamine intolerance and it made those symptoms worse, but at the same time I felt good in a way. At the end of the week I started getting what I believed to be detox symptoms, but they were too intense to keep going.( Btw, I have histamine intolerance and it’s from years of neglecting my liver and digestive system. My liver almost failed due to a drug induced bile obstruction in 2015, and ever since I have had major problems with my digestive system, heart, and allergies.) So the symptoms from the Organ Meats were pain in my liver area, sweating, slight convulsions which happen when my upper right abdomen swells and gets worse, shortness of breath, sweating, cold hands and feet, and chest pain. I’ve felt these symptoms before taking other supplements a while ago and thought I was detoxing then, but I always just feel worse and the “detox” never ends or becomes too much to handle to get through. I think my liver can’t detox anymore. Since the Organ Meats didn’t work, I tried taking single ingredients from it once I recovered from the “detox symptoms.” I tried the Pancreas, but it gave me major headaches, just like when I used to take digestive enzymes. It feels like my body is digesting too quickly and causing a rush of nutrients that my brain can’t handle all at once. I’m not sure if that’s true, but that’s what it feels like with what I know about the body. Then I tried the Kidney and it definitely helped with my histamine issues, but wayyyy to much. It made me super tired, weak, and dizzy. This same thing happened when I used to take a DAO enzyme supplement before meals to break down extra histamine in food. Without the histamine in food, my body feels like I didn’t even eat. But when I am already sick and my histamine is high, it helps to keep it at bay for a day. The only other problem is that the kidney also made me itchy at the same time. So that was weird. Then I took the Liver and wow I felt a difference. I can see why liver is king, however, the side effects are too much for me. At first I felt so much energy and well being. My digestion seemed to smooth out like when I took the Organ Meats at first. I felt stronger, faster, and more alert. Then my liver area started to feel swollen, the pain radiating to my back told me it was getting bad, my heart pounding, my urine darkened which scared me, my head hurt, my head also had a lot of pressure, my eyes were blurry, my nerves in my fingers and toes started hurting, and I got nauseous. I only worked my way up to taking it twice a day for a couple days before it became too much. It scares me because I feel a pressure in my body, my head, and my nerve pain that I already had, got worse in my extremities. It feels like when I took an iron supplement over a year ago when my heart was pounding, I felt this same pressure in my body. My eyes being blurry made me worried I was getting too much vitamin A. I’m thinking maybe my liver can’t handle even that small amount. My vitamin A and iron were in the normal ranges last year, by the way. I’m trying to tell myself it’s just detox symptoms, but many people have told me over the years that it’s just a detox, and I was “detoxing” for years never actually getting better trying all these different approaches. I’m just scared to keep taking this product, because either my body can’t detox properly or these supplements are only causing more harm. I tried the Bone and Marrow and only experienced stomach cramps here and there. I didn’t feel better or worse otherwise. The Intestines made me itchy and didn’t make me feel better or worse either. The Minerals supplement is the only one I may keep taking. It didn’t cause any side effects and it helped with my constipation. All in all, I am disappointed in the experiences I had. There was a lot of hope at first because I started feeling good, or maybe that was in my head, but then all these side effects were too much for me and it’s been two weeks of trying these. I don’t know how much longer I can take trusting that my body is just detoxing. I wish there were smaller quantities of these supplements so I could try them out first before spending hundreds of dollars testing them out only to feel like crap. I really wanted to believe in the like cures like idea, even to the point of putting raw organs in my body, because everything else I’ve done to heal hasn’t worked, but I feel I’ve lost hope in this. I don’t know what it is about my body. These supplements all got good reviews by thousands of people and I always seem to be the exception that didn’t work out. I won’t give up though. Good luck to everyone else taking these.
