Animal meats especially ruminants meaning cows, goats, sheep, deer etc... contain every essential nutrient the human body needs in bioavailable form. Complete amino acids. Heme iron. Zinc. Copper. Selenium. B vitamins. Fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, K2. Cholesterol. Saturated fats. The very minerals and cofactors the body recognizes and knows how to use. Nothing needs to be converted. Nothing needs to be “unlocked.” It’s nourishment in its most ancestral, intact form. Everything else is optional. Plants can be medicinal. They can be supportive. But they are not required for human survival or optimal function. Humans thrived long before agriculture, grains, legumes, and industrial food systems. The body is designed to run on animal nutrition.. Particularly nose-to-tail ruminant meat without deficiency. When someone eats adequate ruminant meat, salt, and water, the body stops compensating. Digestion stabilizes. Blood sugar levels. Hormones regulate. Inflammation quiets. Cravings disappear. The constant need to “optimize” fades because the body finally has what it’s been asking for all along. This isn’t extremism. It’s returning to biological truth. The further we move away from animal-based nourishment, the more complex and fragile health becomes. Simple foods. Simple inputs. Profound healing. 🦬✨

How to Make Raw Apple Cider Vinegar at Home Chop organic apples or use peels and cores. Place in a glass jar and cover with filtered water. Add 1 tablespoon of raw honey or organic sugar per cup of water to feed fermentation. Cover with a cloth, stir daily, and let it sit at room temp for 2–3 weeks until it smells vinegary. Strain, return the liquid to the jar, and let it ferment another 2–4 weeks. That’s it. Living vinegar ✨ Why ACV Is Powerful Raw ACV supports digestion by increasing stomach acid and enzyme activity.

Toxic seed oils are in everything… Peanut butter Salad dressing Frozen fish sticks Coffee creamer Even “vegan” options like MorningStar Farms 🌿 If you have to read a label, you probably shouldn’t be eating it. This isn’t food. It’s industrial oil. And it’s making America sick. https://calendly.com/nourishedrootsapothecary/30min #lifecoach #HTMA #realfood #nourisedrootsapothecary #vitality #nutritionpolicy
