Organic grass-fed beef is imperative for a nutrient dense tallow product.

Fat used to be a dirty word. We shunned it, trimmed it from meat, chose low fat dairy, barely scraped toast with a bit of margarine!

We might laugh now, but a diet bereft of quality fat will set you up for health disaster. Thankfully the truth is out and people are seeking out highest quality dietary fats 🙌🏼

The quality of the fat we use for our tallow products underpins everything we do.

Why organic? Minimising environmental contaminants is of utmost importance. Toxins are stored in fat cells. We want the cleanest possible tallow for you – because that is what we want for ourselves.

Why grass fed? It’s about nutrient density. Cows nurtured organically in a grass-fed environment develop highly superior fat profiles.

Essential fat-soluble vitamins A D E and K are intrinsically balanced in tallow with the co-factors required to activate them effectively.

These nutrients underpin the value of beef tallow in profoundly impacting your skin health, and overall health when ingested as a part of a healthy diet.

Vitamin E has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Grass fed beef tallow provides FOUR TIMES the Vit E that grain fed cows do. Compared to plant derived Vit E, this is off the charts.

Also - for the gluten intolerant – Vit E in skin care products are often derived from wheat.

Our cellular membranes comprise of fatty acids – around 50% saturated fat. We’re talking your entire body – not just skin - organs, connective tissues, muscles. Your cell membranes are the gateways that allow movement of important nutrients and waste products in and out of your cells.

They’re like the bouncers. You want really healthy robust guys doing this important work.

Guess what? Tallow is also 50% saturated fat.

Tallow is the closest fat in compatibility to our skin’s cell biology – and cellular health is core to health.

Tallow, in fact, is as close to our skin’s natural sebum as it gets!

The word Sebum translates to “tallow” in Latin.

Is that not just incredible?
