Reduce mucus and inflammation...
A 2016 Nutrients review found brain tissue actively concentrates B vitamins above plasma levels, and that all eight are required together for normal function. This blend gets them from rice bran, bee pollen, and grass-fed liver, in the ratios the foods came in.
For adults who want B vitamins from food rather than a high-dose synthetic stack. 100 or 200 capsules.
- Whole-Food Sourced
- Grass-Fed Liver
- Organic Rice Bran
- Lab Tested
- Pork-Free Capsule
- No Synthetic Vitamins
- No Fillers
- No Flow Agents
Why people use it
- B vitamins work as a set. A 2016 review in Nutrients lays out thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and pantothenic acid acting as essential coenzymes in mitochondrial energy production, and concludes all eight are needed together for normal function.
- B12 supports normal red blood cell formation and nervous system function.
- Copper rides along with the liver. Beef liver is the richest common dietary source of copper, the mineral behind ceruloplasmin. That is the reason this product sits in a copper-first line rather than a vitamin aisle.
- Rice bran and bee pollen fill the rest. Published reviews report thiamin and niacin in rice bran, plus gamma-oryzanol and tocotrienols, and a broad B group in bee pollen alongside protein and polyphenols.
- This is a nutrient-density product: three foods, in the ratios they came in, with what each one brings spelled out below.
What's in the capsule
The three foods go in as a blend, so the table describes what each ingredient brings rather than a per-capsule milligram figure. Ask us for the panel and we'll publish the amounts the moment we have them.
| Ingredient | What it contributes |
|---|---|
| Organic rice bran | Thiamin (B1) and niacin (B3), plus dietary fiber, gamma-oryzanol, and tocotrienols. Rice bran runs roughly 12% fiber and 10-16% protein as a raw material. |
| 100% pure bee pollen powder | B1, B2, B6, biotin, pantothenic acid, niacin, and folate, alongside protein, all eight essential amino acids, and polyphenols. |
| Grass-fed beef liver powder | The B12 in the blend, and the copper and preformed vitamin A that come with liver. NIH lists cooked beef liver at ~70.7 mcg B12 and ~12,400 mcg copper per 3 oz. |
| USP grade pork-free bovine capsule | The shell. Nothing else goes in. |
Ingredient contributions rather than declared amounts. Reference figures from NIH ODS B12, copper, and vitamin A, plus reviews of rice bran and bee pollen composition. Treat this as a food blend, not a dosed B complex. Certificates of analysis are available on request.
How to use
- Start with 1 capsule after your first good meal of the day.
- If that goes fine, add a second with lunch.
- Some people run 1 to 3 capsules across meals. Adjust to what you actually need.
- If the bee pollen fraction feels like too much at first, stay at 1 capsule daily for several weeks before you increase.
- Take it with a meal that has fat in it. The liver fraction carries preformed vitamin A, which is fat-soluble.
- If you also take liver capsules or cod liver oil, count them together and talk it through with your provider.
Sourcing & making
Three lab-tested foods and a capsule shell. The rice bran is organic and lab tested for heavy metals, which matters because rice concentrates arsenic from soil. The bee pollen is the same wildcrafted Spanish pollen we sell on its own. The liver is 100% grass-fed and freeze-dried, the same material as our liver capsules. Capsules are USP-grade pork-free bovine gelatin. Bottled in small batches when you order.
Full ingredients
- Organic Rice Bran (Lab-Tested for Heavy Metals)
- 100% Pure Bee Pollen Powder
- 100% Lab-Tested Grass-Fed Beef Liver Powder
- Lab-Tested USP Grade Pork-Free Bovine Capsule
Who it's for — and who it isn't
Good fit for:
- Adults who want B vitamins from food, with the cofactors that came with them, rather than from isolates
- People already building on liver and copper who want the B side of that in one capsule
- Practitioners who prefer a food-matrix B complex to a high-dose synthetic one
Probably not for you if:
- You already take liver capsules, cod liver oil, or a high-dose multivitamin. Count preformed vitamin A and copper across all of them.
- You avoid beef-derived ingredients or are vegetarian. This contains beef liver and a bovine gelatin capsule.
Testing & quality
Every product is lab tested. Certificates of analysis on request, about a 2-week turnaround. The rice bran fraction is tested for heavy metals specifically.

B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12)
B Vitamins and the Brain: Mechanisms, Dose and Efficacy—A Review
Nutrients · 2016 · mechanistic review
A review documenting that thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and pantothenic acid act as essential coenzymes in mitochondrial energy production and that brain tissue actively concentrates B vitamins above plasma levels, concluding that all eight are needed together for normal physiological and neurological function.
Organic rice bran
Rice bran composition review, 2023
Foods · 2023 · mechanistic review
A review of rice bran composition and effects reporting thiamine, niacin, vitamin E, minerals, γ-oryzanol and tocotrienols in the bran fraction, with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity shown largely in preclinical models.
Bee pollen
Bee Pollen: Current Status and Therapeutic Potential
Nutrients · 2021 · mechanistic review
A review quantifying bee pollen at roughly 22.7% protein with vitamins, minerals and polyphenols, and summarizing largely preclinical evidence for its antioxidant and immune-modulating activity.
Evidence note: Strong for the role of B vitamins in energy metabolism and nervous system function. This specific whole-food combination (rice bran, bee pollen, liver powder) is described by the composition literature for each food; trials of the blend itself are still to come.
A note on iron
Iron is essential. You need it to carry oxygen and make energy. The catch is that iron only behaves when it is bound and moving. Iron that sits in storage, or circulates unbound, is chemically reactive; it drives the free-radical chemistry researchers call oxidative stress, and elevated ferritin often travels with it.
Moving iron is a copper job. Ceruloplasmin, a copper-dependent enzyme, oxidizes iron so it can leave cells and be used. Without enough copper, that enzyme stalls and so does iron traffic. Retinol, real vitamin A, sits in the same system: low vitamin A status changes how the body handles iron.
That is why we build around whole-food copper, retinol, and magnesium instead of pushing more iron. Magnesium is there for its own reasons; the evidence tying it to iron directly is thin.
If you are thinking about iron, test first. Ferritin, serum iron, and saturation, read by your practitioner with your history in front of them. Iron is not right for everyone.

FAQ
How much of each B vitamin is in a capsule?
The three foods go in as a blend, so the honest answer is what each food brings, which is the table above. We've asked for a panel with the ingredient weights and we'll publish per-capsule amounts as soon as it lands. If you want B vitamins in stated milligrams today, a dosed complex is the product category for that. This one is food.
Why food-sourced B12 instead of a synthetic form?
For what comes with it. NIH finds absorption similar across cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin and the other forms, so the case for liver isn't the B12 molecule; it's the copper, the preformed vitamin A, and the rest of the nutrient set liver carries into the same capsule. That's nose-to-tail nutrition in a capsule instead of four bottles.
Why three foods instead of one?
Each covers different ground. Rice bran leads on thiamin and niacin, bee pollen carries a broad B group with protein and polyphenols, and liver is the only real B12 source of the three, plus the copper and retinol.
Does the liver content matter for vitamin A?
Yes, and it's worth watching. Count everything liver-containing together with a provider.
What do customers mention most?
Steady daytime energy, which is exactly the territory B vitamins work in as coenzymes in energy metabolism. Some people feel a noticeable lift in the first week. If that's more than you want, drop back to one capsule with a full meal and build slowly.
Pairs well with
- Grass-Fed Beef Liver — the liver in this blend, on its own, with reference figures
- Bee Pollen — the pollen in this blend, on its own
- FIQ Recuperate (Copper & Boron) — when more copper is the goal
Cautions
- Some people feel an initial surge of energy. If that's uncomfortable, reduce to 1 capsule daily with a full meal and increase gradually.
- Contains bee pollen, which can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Discontinue and seek medical advice if you notice itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Risk is highest in people allergic to weed pollens.
- Contains beef liver and a bovine gelatin capsule. Noted if you're following a plant-based diet.
- Store cool and dry. Best within 12 months of opening.
Lab Tested
Every product. COA on request, ~2 weeks.
Small Batch
Made in small batches, about as close to homemade as a capsule gets.
Nothing Hidden
Three foods and a capsule shell. No synthetic vitamins, fillers, or flow agents.
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Nutrient figures are approximate reference values, not a lot-specific assay.
