What is Spleen Extract?
Spleen extract is a substance derived from the spleen of animals, commonly from cows or pigs. It is used in supplements and traditional medicine practices for its potential immune-supporting properties due to its rich content of peptides and proteins that may influence immune function. It is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians due to its animal origin.
