Yes, cocoa naturally contains some heavy metals. However, we tested over a dozen cocoa sources to find the one with the lowest heavy metal content. Our cocoa is rigorously tested to meet our very high standards, so you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

While Paul Saladino follows a strict diet that doesn’t include cocoa, we recognize that many people enjoy the flavor and benefits of chocolate. Cocoa is a natural ingredient with some benefits. It contains antioxidants, can support mood enhancement in some studies, and contains compounds that may support heart health.

While we maintain a nutrient-dense, animal-based profile in our Animal-Based Complete, the addition of cocoa offers a great flavor along with some extra benefits, without the guilt or processed, added sugar chocolate found in other protein powders.

For those who want a delicious, nutrient-dense protein powder with chocolate flavor, ABC Chocolate is a fantastic choice.

And if you prefer to avoid cocoa, we also offer our original ABC formula without any added flavor.

Yes, our cocoa is 100% organic, Rainforest Alliance certified, and sustainably sourced. We ensure that our cocoa meets high standards for both quality and environmental responsibility.

We think you should! Always prioritize real foods in whole form. We made this supplement (not meal replacement) for easy on-the-go way to get more organs and protein and to buffer any gaps you might have in your animal-based diet.

Beef protein is fully nose-to-tail. We use the whole carcass (muscle meat, joints, and connective tissue) so it is packed with the collagen, gelatin, and micro-nutrients your body needs. Unlike other protein powders, it’s not packed with possible allergens found in soy, dairy, egg, or whey. Our careful dose of real-food ingredients gives you the nutrients you need to build muscle, and repair ligaments, tendons, joins, hair, and skin. Plus, AB Complete is non-inflammatory. Most other animal-based protein powders can cause inflammation (such as powders made from egg protein), not beef protein. It’s just 20-grams of 100% grass-fed beef in every scoop. Lastly, studies have shown that beef protein provides additional benefits to strength, hypertrophy, and fat loss over whey.

The taste is fairly neutral so it can be easily incorporated into whatever drink you'd like without affecting the taste.

We intentionally didn't flavor this product so you could use it however you'd like.

So many people have sensitivities so we wanted to make the purest product with no flavors or sweeteners so anyone can thrive using this product.

AB Complete is the perfect supplement to have whenever you want the power of animal-based nutrition, that’s because it packed full of everything you need and nothing you don't.

It’s more than a supplement. It’s a natural source of the collagen, gelatin, carbs, minerals and micro-nutrients that have fueled humans for many generations.

Take ABC after a workout to build muscle and repair ligaments and take it as a meal replacement. With ABC, it’s never been easier to feed your body

Our cattle are sourced from small, regenerative farms in Australia. 

Most conventional beef snacks come from grain-fed, feedlot-raised cattle that are confined in overstocked conditions and raised using conventional agriculture methods that degrade soil, deplete nutrients, and rely on chemical inputs. We take a completely different approach.  

Our regenerative sourcing criteria ensure that the beef in our air-dried sticks comes from cattle raised in a way that promotes soil health, animal welfare, and ecosystem balance. These cattle spend their entire lives on pasture, following natural grazing patterns that reduce stress and support healthier animals. Through rotational grazing, they are moved between pastures to prevent overgrazing and allow the land to recover, which enriches the soil, increases biodiversity, and improves the overall nutritional value of the grasses they consume. Farmers also maintain proper land-to-animal ratios, ensuring that the soil remains nutrient-rich and the grass continues to grow sustainably.  

Unlike conventional operations, our farms do not use agrochemicals—no pesticides, herbicides, or synthetic fertilizers—preserving clean soil, clean water, and the integrity of the ecosystem. The pastures where our cattle graze are naturally diverse, supporting a variety of nutrient-rich native grasses that contribute to higher omega-3 levels and superior beef flavor. The region itself is known for its pristine environment, fertile land, and low industrial impact, which directly benefits pasture quality and animal health.  

As a result, our cattle are raised in one of the world’s most pristine environments, using sustainable, chemical-free, and regenerative grazing methods. This approach not only enhances the quality of our beef but also supports the long-term health of the land. Regenerative farming improves soil fertility, increases carbon sequestration, and actively restores ecosystems rather than depleting them. By choosing our air-beef products, you’re directly supporting sustainable agriculture, healthier cattle, and a more resilient food system.  

No! We strictly use freeze-drying, thermal, and mechanical processing to keep our ingredients clean and as natural as possible.
