Mana Way was created with a simple intention: to offer whole-food nourishment for mothers inside and out. As a mother, I know how much is required of us.
We value simple, high-quality, non-harmful ingredients that have been used for many generations.

What sets Mana Way apart:

• Certified organic sourced beef organs

• Grass-fed and finished cows

• 100% Australian sourced, made and owned

• No fillers, binders or artificial additives

• Packaged in reusable amber glass jars

We believe nourishment should be simple, transparent and grounded in nature.

Iron comes in two main forms: heme iron and non-heme iron.
Heme iron is found in animal foods such as red meat and organs. Non-heme iron is found in plant foods and most standard, synthetic iron supplements.
Heme iron is highly bioavailable and is 2-3 X more easily absorbed in to the body in comparison to non-heme iron - which is less easily absorbed and also is more affected by other foods eaten at the same time.

Because our capsules are made from freeze-dried beef spleen, they contain naturally occurring heme iron, along with the cofactors found in whole food — not isolated synthetic iron - making them a whole food source of iron that the body knows how to digest.

“Iron Renew” - Our organic beef spleen capsules are designed for anyone seeking a natural, whole-food source of heme iron and organ-based nourishment.

They may be suitable for:

• Women of menstruating age

• Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers

• Those with low iron stores or low ferritin (under practitioner guidance)

• If you’re looking to support energy levels

• Those who prefer food-based supplements over synthetic isolates

If you have a medical condition, are taking prescription medication, or have been diagnosed with iron overload conditions (such as haemochromatosis), please consult your healthcare practitioner before use.

Iron needs increase during pregnancy and postpartum.

Because this product contains naturally occurring heme iron from whole beef spleen, some women choose to use organ-based supplements during these seasons.

However, pregnancy and breastfeeding are unique physiological states. We always recommend speaking with your healthcare practitioner before introducing any supplement during this time.

Grass-fed and finished means the cows have eaten grass for their entire lives — not grain.
Many cattle are grass-fed early on but grain-finished before processing. Grain finishing can change the fatty acid profile and nutrient composition of the animal.

Grass-fed and finished cattle are raised on pasture for their whole lifecycle, which supports:

• A more natural diet

• Higher levels of certain nutrients

• Ethical and regenerative farming practices

Our beef organs are sourced from certified organic, grass-fed and finished cows within Australia.

Because this is a real whole food product, there may be a mild natural scent when you open the jar.

The capsules themselves are designed to be swallowed, so you should not notice a taste when taking them as directed.

We do not add flavouring or masking agents — what you’re receiving is pure freeze-dried organ in capsule form.

Each jar contains 120 capsules.

The recommended serving is 4 capsules per day, which equals a 30-day supply.

If taking a different amount as advised by your practitioner, duration may vary.

When stored in the jar, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, the capsules are shelf-stable for 1-2 years and will last until the best-before date printed on the jar.

The silica sachet inside helps protect against moisture and should remain in the bottle.

Always keep the lid tightly sealed after use.

Unlike non-heme iron, heme iron does not rely heavily on vitamin C for absorption.

That said, vitamin C can still support overall iron metabolism in the body.

Constipation is commonly associated with synthetic non-heme iron supplements.

Heme iron from whole food sources is generally gentler on digestion and less likely to cause gastrointestinal discomfort.

That said, every body is different. If you experience discomfort, consider adjusting timing, taking with food, or consulting your practitioner.

This depends on your individual iron status and overall health.

Some people report feeling improvements in energy within days or weeks.
For measurable changes in iron stores (such as ferritin), blood testing is typically reassessed after 8–12 weeks.

Consistency is important. Iron restoration is gradual, not instant.

If you are working to correct low iron levels, regular monitoring with your healthcare provider is recommended.

Our ‘Iron Renew’ capsules contain naturally occurring heme iron.

Taking multiple iron products together may increase total iron intake beyond what you need.

If you are currently taking an iron supplement, it’s best to:

• Review your recent iron studies (ferritin, haemoglobin, etc.)

• Speak with your practitioner

• Avoid doubling up unless advised

More iron is not always better — balance matters.
