How we evaluated it

How it scores Our rating, metric by metric Good, 3.7 of 5

Ingredients 25% of the rating 5 of 5

Liver and a cellulose capsule, nothing else: the label says no fillers or flow agents.
Independent testing 35% of the rating 3 of 5

Public microbial reports for 50 lots and a glyphosate listing, but heavy metals are sampled by a lab the maker pays, the newest sample had lead near 0.65 µg a serving, and there is no PFAS result.
Sourcing 20% of the rating 3 of 5

Argentina is named and an origin statement and health certificate are linked, but no farms, audit or grass-fed certifier.
Trust 10% of the rating 3 of 5

Two lead notices (2021 for unnamed supplements, 2026 for its greens) and absolute label claims, offset by public lot reports and a stated vitamin A.
Value 10% of the rating 5 of 5

About $0.87 a day for 3 g of liver, the lowest of the organ products here.

Who tested it What each test found, and who paid for it 4 tests

Maker’s own test Advanced Laboratories, for Perfect Supplements May 2026

Microbial report for lot F121601 (finished 4 May 2026): E. coli, Salmonella, S. aureus and Pseudomonas absent in 10 g; total aerobic count 420 CFU/g; yeast and mold under 10 CFU/g. Perfect links one report for each of 50 lots from May 2020. Open ↗ (opens in a new tab)
Maker’s own test Advanced Laboratories, for Perfect Supplements April 2025

Heavy-metal sample for lot E091108 (29 Apr 2025, ICP-MS): lead 0.217 ppm (about 0.65 µg a 3 g serving), cadmium 0.107 ppm, arsenic 0.053 ppm, mercury 0.001 ppm. Perfect says these are samples from past spot tests, not every lot. Earlier samples had lead of 0.08 to 0.21 µg a serving. Open ↗ (opens in a new tab)
Paid certification The Detox Project (Glyphosate Residue Free listing; Anresco lab report) October 2025

Lists Perfect Desiccated Liver in capsule and powder form. Anresco’s report for lot F060403 (23 Oct 2025, ISO/IEC 17025) found glyphosate and AMPA not detected at a 10 ppb limit. It does not cover metals, microbes or PFAS. Open ↗ (opens in a new tab)
Maker’s own test Perfect Supplements’ results table (no lab or date named)

Lists vitamin A at 969 IU, iron at 2.8 mg and B12 at 1.41 mcg per 3 g. The table names no lab and has no date, and vitamin A is not on the Supplement Facts panel. Open ↗ (opens in a new tab)

Who paid, and why it matters

Independent The tester took no money from the maker for it: a consumer group, a journalist, a university or a regulator.
Paid certification An outside lab or certifier tested or listed it, and the maker paid for that.
Maker’s own test A lab report or certificate of analysis the maker commissioned and published.

A certification is a floor, not a verdict: it checks what its program checks and nothing else. We weigh tests by someone with no stake in the result most.

What people ask Worries raised online and elsewhere, and what we found 5 questions

Is there lead in it?: The newest heavy-metal sample (opens in a new tab) (April 2025) implies about 0.65 µg a serving, above Consumer Reports’ 0.5 µg level of concern. Earlier samples were lower, and Perfect posts samples, not every lot. Two Prop 65 lead notices name the company, one for unnamed supplements in 2021 and one for its Aquatic Greens in 2026.
Is there PFAS in liver supplements?: Prop 65 notices allege PFOS or PFNA in liver supplements from Heart & Soil (opens in a new tab), Ancestral Supplements (opens in a new tab) and Paleovalley (opens in a new tab). None names Perfect, and Perfect posts no PFAS result, so we do not know.
How much vitamin A is in it?: Perfect’s page says 969 IU per 3 g, from a results table that names no lab. That is about a tenth of the 3,000 mcg a day ceiling in our vitamin A guide. If you are or could be pregnant, ask a clinician first.
Is the “Perfectly Pure” seal independent?: No. It is Perfect’s own program (opens in a new tab): a microbial test on each batch that Perfect orders and posts. The Detox Project listing is the outside mark, and it covers glyphosate only.
Are the cows really grass-fed Argentine cattle, free of antibiotics and pesticides?: Perfect links an origin statement and an Argentine health certificate. It names no farm, and no certifier backs the grass-fed or antibiotic-free claims. We could not check them.

Why we chose it What put it on our list 5 points

It states vitamin A. The product page lists 969 IU per 3 g serving, about 290 mcg RAE (our arithmetic), roughly a tenth of the 3,000 mcg a day ceiling in our vitamin A guide. Most liver capsules we reviewed give no figure.
Lot reports are public. The product page links a microbial report for each of 50 lots from May 2020 to May 2026. The newest we opened (lot F121601, finished 4 May 2026, Advanced Laboratories) found no E. coli, Salmonella or Staphylococcus aureus in 10 g and a total aerobic count of 420 CFU/g.
The Detox Project’s public list of Glyphosate Residue Free products includes Perfect Desiccated Liver in capsule and powder form. Perfect links an Anresco report (the report states ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation) for lot F060403: glyphosate and AMPA not detected at a 10 ppb limit.
The label is one ingredient, Desiccated Beef Liver Powder (Argentina Grass-Fed), 3,000 mg per serving, in a cellulose capsule with no fillers or flow agents. Perfect says the liver is undefatted and vacuum dried at very low temperatures.
It is the cheapest organ product we reviewed: about $0.87 a day for the capsules, or about $0.48 a day for the 180 g powder at one 3 g scoop.

Trade-offs What to weigh before you buy 4 points

Heavy metals are sampled, not posted for every lot, and the newest sample is the weakest. Perfect says its results are examples from past spot tests. The April 2025 sample (lot E091108, Advanced Laboratories) found lead at 0.217 ppm, cadmium 0.107 ppm, arsenic 0.053 ppm and mercury 0.001 ppm. At 3 g a day, that lead level is about 0.65 µg (our arithmetic), above Consumer Reports’ 0.5 µg level of concern; earlier samples were 0.08 to 0.21 µg. Ask Perfect for the report for the lot you buy.
No PFAS results are posted. California’s Prop 65 notice database (checked 23 October 2026) lists PFOS or PFNA notices for liver supplements from Heart & Soil (AG 2025-04599, filed 10 November 2025), Ancestral Supplements (AG 2026-00888, filed 26 February 2026) and Paleovalley (AG 2026-02612, filed 3 June 2026), and none for Perfect’s liver. It does list two lead notices against Perfect, one from 2021 for unnamed “dietary supplements” (AG 2021-02251) and one from 2026 for its Aquatic Greens (AG 2026-00838). Notices are allegations, and a missing notice is not a test result. See our PFAS guide.
Liver carries preformed vitamin A. The label tells pregnant or nursing women to consult a physician first; if you could become pregnant, ask before you start. Perfect’s page says four capsules a day will not cause a vitamin A overdose, which is the maker’s opinion, not a trial result.
Several claims rest on the maker: Argentine origin and grass-fed (an origin statement and health certificate, but no farm names and no audit), and the vitamin A figure (a lab results table that names no lab and has no date, and is not on the Supplement Facts panel). The label’s absolute lines, such as cows “untouched by antibiotics, chemical fertilizers or pesticides,” are not backed by a record we could open.

What to know Details worth knowing first

Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods, and our guide to beef liver says it probably helps close gaps in B12, retinol, copper and choline. No trial has tested liver capsules. This product is the plain version: one ingredient, no blend, no fillers.

It earns its place for what it tells you. Most liver capsules give no vitamin A figure, which is the number that matters if you take other vitamin A or might be pregnant. Perfect states it, posts lot-by-lot microbial reports and links lab reports for metals and glyphosate. The Detox Project lists the product as Glyphosate Residue Free, which we could check ourselves.

Three limits. Perfect’s heavy-metal results are samples rather than every lot, and the newest one implies about 0.65 µg of lead in a serving. No PFAS results are posted for any liver capsule we reviewed. And the labs are paid by Perfect. If any of this matters to you, ask Perfect for the report for your lot. For the basics, see retinol and immune health and how to tell if a supplement is pure.

How Perfect Desiccated Liver Capsules measures up against our colostrum & organ supplements criteria
What we checked	What we found
Named sourcing Maker’s claim	Argentina, on the label and the product page. Perfect links an origin statement and an Argentine health certificate. No farms are named and no certifier backs the grass-fed claim.
Pathogens tested by lot Verified	Perfect says it tests each batch and links 50 lot reports. In lot F121601 (finished 4 May 2026, Advanced Laboratories, Clayton, NC) E. coli, Salmonella, S. aureus and Pseudomonas were absent in 10 g; total aerobic count 420 CFU/g; yeast and mold under 10 CFU/g.
Heavy metals tested Verified	Perfect posts sample results from past spot tests, not every lot. Lot E091108 (29 April 2025, Advanced Laboratories, ICP-MS): lead 0.217 ppm, cadmium 0.107 ppm, arsenic 0.053 ppm, mercury 0.001 ppm. That is about 0.65 µg of lead in a 3 g serving.
Glyphosate Verified	Listed by the Detox Project as Glyphosate Residue Free (capsules and powder). Anresco report for lot F060403 (23 October 2025): glyphosate and AMPA not detected.
Amounts per serving, and vitamin A Maker’s claim	Liver 3,000 mg per 4 capsules, on the label. Vitamin A, 969 IU per 3 g, is on the product page, from a lab results table with no lab name or date.
Gentle processing Maker’s claim	Undefatted liver, vacuum dried at very low temperatures, says Perfect. It is not described as freeze-dried.
A plain label Maker’s claim	One ingredient plus a cellulose capsule. The label says no fillers or flow agents.
PFAS Not verified	No PFAS results posted. No California Prop 65 notice names this product (checked 23 October 2026), though a 2021 lead notice against Perfect covers unnamed “dietary supplements”.

What the labels mean

Verified We opened an independent record that confirms it: a certifier’s listing, a regulator’s list or a lab report. It is linked under Sources.
Maker’s claim The maker says so on its own page or label. We read it but found no independent record.
Not verified We looked and could not confirm it, or the maker does not say. Treat it as unknown.

Alternatives Other options to compare 3 options

Perfect Desiccated Liver powder (180 g) (opens in a new tab) The same liver as a powder, about $29 for 180 g. One 3 g scoop a day is about $0.48 a day.
Fresh grass-fed liver, once or twice a week Cooked liver gives the same nutrients without a capsule. Our guide covers portions, vitamin A and pregnancy.
Another liver capsule with a listing from a certifier Compare what each label states: vitamin A per serving, a named lab with lot reports, and any certifier listing. Heart & Soil’s Pure American Liver is listed by NSF Certified for Sport, but its page carries a California PFAS warning and no vitamin A figure.
