This episode is brought to you by Optimal Carnivore. Do you struggle to eat organ meat? Optimal Carnivore was created by Carnivores for Carnivores. They created a unique organ complex from grass-fed animals in New Zealand. It includes 9 different organs - Liver, Brain, Heart, Thymus, Kidney, Spleen, Pancreas, Lung, etc. Taking 6 capsules is the same as eating an ounce of raw organ meat from the butcher. And hurray for that because nobody really wants to eat raw organ meat. Really.
