Purity Testing
Independent and transparent lab results on each batch for your peace of mind.
Test results
From factory-farm feedlots to cheap plastic packaging, our industrial food system creates toxicity at every step, in our meals and our bodies. Although our wild-harvested meats bypass standard supply chains and are far cleaner than industrial meats, we also use third-party and impartial laboratories to test for multiple environmental toxins. We do this for our health and that of our families, and we also want to share the results with you for peace of mind. Below, you’ll find the most recent series of tests directly from the third-party lab so that you can assess them for yourself.

Small plastic particles enter our food and water supply daily. They are ubiquitous and virtually impossible to avoid completely. Even a recent survey of Whole Foods products found that numerous microplastics are present in grass-fed, grass-finished ribeye steak. A study of 47 dogs and 23 humans found that 100% had microplastics present in the male testes (reproductive organs).
The risks associated with excess microplastic loads are significant. Studies have linked these compounds to DNA damage and inflammation, which can negatively affect fertility and alter endocrine function.
The microplastics testing on our wild venison jerky bites emphasizes not only the product itself, but the packaging that it’s wrapped in. Every batch is tested with the product in the packaging, in heat, to mimic how it will arrive. This late-stage microplastics testing provides peace of mind.
The Truth About Microplastics - Dr Rhonda PatrickIndustrial agriculture has so thoroughly polluted the Earth that heavy metals are a part of even the most mundane, commodity foods, such as salt and rice. Processed foods and baby food have been identified as sources of heavy metals.
Heavy metals, such as lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium, are implicated in neurological damage, cause oxidative stress, DNA damage, and toxicity that affects reproductive health.
The heavy metals testing on our wild venison jerky bites ensures that environmental toxins are not bio-accumulating up the food chain from the Earth into deer meat and their organs.
For decades, pesticides have been used to kill weeds and prevent infestations. Unfortunately, these pesticides are ubiquitous and enter our water supply as well as our food. In countries like America, where pesticide use is heavy, nearly all humans have pesticides present in their bodies. The New York Post reported 95% of children’s school lunches contained pesticides.
Chemicals like glyphosate, astrazine, and others have harmful, cancer-causing effects on human health.
Our pesticide testing on our wild venison jerky bites reveals 67 different chemical compounds commonly found in agricultural products. The pristine Hawaiian environment where these animals roam provides us with a level of safety for ourselves and children.
Mycotoxins refer to fungi (like mold) that proliferate in our food and harm our health. Due to long supply chains and questionable food maintenance practices, there are many common foods, such as coffee, which are full of mycotoxins that can negatively affect our health.
Some of these compounds, such as Aflatoxins, are considered a carcinogen, can cause neurodegeneration, and damage our immune systems. Other mycotoxins impact fertility and damage our organs.
We test five common mycotoxins found in food to provide peace of mind that our supply chain and storage is not breeding harmful toxins.
