HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Life Blood by Heart & Soil
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
Life Blood contains 6 active ingredients: spleen, liver, platelets, immune proteins, whole blood extract, red blood cells, and white blood cells. These are all derived from animal tissues and are meant to support various aspects of blood and immune function.
The product also contains bovine gelatin as an inactive ingredient (the capsule material).
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for liver extract in this product is mixed. For chronic fatigue syndrome, the data shows it is possibly ineffective.
For hepatitis C, we don't have enough reliable evidence to rate whether it works. For the other active ingredients in Life Blood — spleen, platelets, immune proteins, whole blood extract, red blood cells, and white blood cells — effectiveness data isn't established in the information we hold.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Liver extract is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but this product can deliver high levels of vitamin A and iron, both of which carry their own risks with long-term use. Vitamin A in particular may harm a developing baby, so the safety data advises against this product during pregnancy unless your doctor recommends it.
A thorough safety evaluation hasn't been conducted. There is concern about possible contamination, since liver extract comes from raw animal liver obtained from slaughterhouses — potentially from sick or diseased animals.
There is also concern about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, also called mad cow disease) in liver products from countries where the disease has been reported, though no human cases from contaminated liver extract have been documented to date.
Meds to double-check
Minor interactions only
Check your medications if you take warfarin (a blood thinner) — liver extract may reduce how well it works. Also double-check if you're on iron supplements or iron-containing medications, since this product contains heme iron and adding it could increase your total intake.
No interactions are documented for the other active ingredients in this product, though we hold no data on several of them.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Life Blood is an organ-tissue supplement intended to support blood and immune function, but the evidence for its effectiveness is limited or absent for most of its ingredients. If you take warfarin or iron supplements, you'll want to check your exact medications with the tool on this page before starting.
Talk to your pharmacist about whether this product makes sense for you and about the source and quality of the liver extract.

Life Blood by Heart & Soil Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Life Blood by Heart & Soil contains liver extract, which has documented interactions with a small number of medications.
The most serious concern is with warfarin (Coumadin), a blood thinner used to prevent clots. Liver extract may contain small amounts of vitamin K, which could theoretically reduce warfarin's effectiveness and lower your INR (a measure of how well the drug is working).
However, this interaction hasn't been directly studied or reported in humans.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Liver extract can also contain heme iron. If you're taking iron supplements or iron-containing medications, adding this product might increase your total iron intake and raise the risk of stomach upset or iron buildup in your body — the risk is higher with large doses, long-term use, or if you have a condition like hemochromatosis (too much iron in your tissues).
Several other ingredients in this product — spleen, platelets, immune proteins, red blood cells, and white blood cells — we could not check for interactions because we hold no data on them. Altogether, these interactions span 3 individual medications.
If you take warfarin, iron supplements, or any other prescription medication, use the search tool on this page to check your exact drugs before starting this product.

For each ingredient in Life Blood with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Liver
Iron
Liver extract can contain heme iron. Taking liver extract with iron-containing medications or supplements may increase total iron intake and could increase the risk of gastrointestinal adverse effects or excessive iron accumulation. The risk is greater with high doses, prolonged use, or in individuals with hemochromatosis or another iron-overload disorder. Review the iron content of the liver extract and the total elemental iron dose. Avoid unnecessary duplicate iron supplementation and consider monitoring ferritin and transferrin saturation when clinically appropriate.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Liver extract products may contain small and variable amounts of vitamin K. Theoretically, starting, stopping, or substantially changing the amount of liver extract used could reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin and lower the INR. However, this interaction has not been directly studied or reported in humans, and the vitamin K content of liver extract products is generally not standardized. Consider monitoring the INR after a meaningful change in liver extract use.
