Has anyone tried Raw Multiple from iherb?

A friend has suggested I try Raw Multiple from iherb. I'm not as enthusiastic as she is. Not sure it would be suitable to take as I have Hashimoto's. She thinks it's done wonders for her though.

I just wondered if any one can speak from experience of it please?

Ugh, those ingredients sound horrid! Like they just scooped up all the unwanted remnants to sell as a supplement at a ridiculous price.

Fully agreed! And they don't tell us what sort of animal!

Raw tissue concentrates are made from toxic-free lyophilized glands from animals grazed on rangelands known to be free of pesticides, growth hormones, antibiotics or chemical additives.

Wasn't even familiar with the term rangelands!

Rangelands are described as lands on which the indigenous vegetation is predominately grasses, grass-like plants, forbs, and possibly shrubs or dispersed trees. Existing plant communities can include both native and introduced plants. Disturbed lands that have been revegetated naturally or artificially are included.

Sounds as if it has been used to avoid words such as pasture or grasslands.

helvella,

It states it's bovine. Most 'glandulars' are either bovine, porcine, sometime lamb depending upon which gland/organ.

You are right - but they don't say that on the facts panel I quoted - and I missed it on the other side of the screen!

Tempted by the whisky sauce or the haggis? 🤣

tattybogle in reply to RedApple

I already like haggis,( from the butchers in Dumfries, if anyone is passing ?),... very tempted to try it with whisky sauce.

I'll have the sauce, but with steak please 😀

ok ,, you'll need to buy this supplement then, to get your RDA of " brains and other dubious sounding innards" :)

Do haggis have the same organs as other animals?

tattybogle profile image
tattybogle in reply to helvella

yes , all the same organs , but not necessarily in the same order.

Yes, but they have to be minced - haggis have unique anatomy.

helvella profile image
helvellaAdministratorThyroid UK in reply to humanbean

So they don't so much run round hills as, umm, mince?

tattybogle profile image
tattybogle in reply to helvella

It's preferable to get those ones that run round the hills clockwise .. they have bigger hearts and left lungs., as well as longer left legs . The ones that originate from the Western isles and the Outer Hebrides run round anticlockwise and so their proportions are all wrong from an 'recommended daily allowance ' point of view .

helvellaAdministratorThyroid UK in reply to tattybogle

Did they always run those ways? Including before we had clocks.

tattybogle profile image
tattybogle in reply to helvella

yes.... but 'pre-clocks' you needed to catch the sinister haggis rather than the more common dextrous haggis .

Sometimes 'temptations' can resolve the problem.

shawsAdministrator in reply to tattybogle

To take whisky sauce along with the haggis there could be a benefit of maybe assisting your symptoms to resolve ? That would be a good discovery.

Thankyou all. Decision made.Won't bother with it.!!!!!

I can't have haggis though cos of gluten. But I like organ meats occasionally. I've made my own chicken liver pate. Recently. So will stick to that.

Thanks again.

You don't get away with it that easily! :D haggisuk.co.uk/gluten-free-...

You can also get vegetarian haggis...Tesco's used to stock it but not anymore it seems.

Though by being 'organ free' is it even a haggis at all? 🤔

Everdean in reply to Hedgeree

I think I would prefer the meat one but thank you.

Everdean,

I haven’t tried this brand but I have tried loads of glandulars including adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, hypothalamus, thymus, & pancreas by Biotics Research, Dr Wilson’s and Seeking Health.

Most are derived from bovine/porcin, sometimes lamb, and thought to enhance the function of the corresponding human tissue. It is absolutely imperative to use glandulars derived from livestock grazed free of pesticides/herbicides & who are free of antibiotics, etc. This brand says exactly that.

Brands that don’t, use a solvent to remove fat where toxins/heavy metals may be stored but this method also removes fat-soluble hormones, enzymes, essential fatty acids, etc, everything thats supposed to be beneficial and the whole point of taking the glandular.

I know all this sounds horrible but don’t be put off as ‘glandulars’ covers both glands and organs (ie heart, liver, tongue) which many people eat routinely and then there’s tattybogle 's mincing haggis 🤣 🤣. I’m not a big meat eater as extremely fussy about fat, gristle 🤮 but can easily take a pill. I just wished glandulars suited me as Dr P was a huge advocate.

Unfortunately any glandular I have previously tried (with the exception of regulated NDT) makes me feel spacey & even slightly detached from the world. I guess it must be to do with the processing methods which are very different. Maybe I should try again 🤷‍♀️.

I read about adrenal glandulars helping ME sufferers and recently research about pancreatic glandulars containing cancer inhibiting properties. Also, what will be of interest to Hashi sufferers is taking thyroid glandulars may promote immune tolerance towards those proteins and decrease autoimmune reactions to self (proteins).

That's very interesting.

It's not so much the ingredients as the ratio of ingredients could vary from capsule to capsule.

I think there's growing appreciation for the role of organ meats in health. We have cut them almost entirely from our diets, yet these are the most nutritionally dense parts (and ironically usually least expensive) parts of the meat.

Unfortunately false and misleading statements of what is 'healthy' that serve corporate food companies continue to be pushed.

OM are the richest source of nucleotides which are good for some reason. And there's some sort of principle that says you strengthen corresponding body parts that you eat, so a supplement like this may be working on that principle. Certainly I am not going to eat an actual brain anytime soon. So it seems expedient.

I wouldn't take this particular organ supplement however, as I don't know anything about where the animals are from or how they're raised but I'd give it a try if I had this information. Or it was UK produced.
