How Glandulars Work

Glandular therapy uses whole animal tissues (organs primarily) to heal or enhance the functioning of the body’s corresponding tissues. When ingested, these tissues release valuable minerals, vitamins, enzymes, and other nutrients that are specific to promote health of that particular tissue. Although not technically glands, organs of the body are commonly referred to as "glandular" when taken as supplements.

This type of therapy is based on a "like cures like" theory. Cells are attracted to and nourish "like cells" even if they are from a different species. For example, if someone with a damaged or unbalanced liver eats liver, they are ingesting nutrients that can provide their body with the specific combination of amino acids and other building blocks to rebuild functional liver cells.
