YES, THE HEALTHY RED MEAT (AND OSTRICH OIL SKIN CARE) IS HSA-ELIGIBLE

Did you know you can use your HSA or FSA funds to shop at American Ostrich Farms? That means you’re not just investing in your health—you’re doing it with pre-tax dollars, saving you ~30%* on eligible products like our premium ostrich meat and nutrient-rich ostrich oil skincare.

WHY HSA/FSA = ~30% SAVINGS

When you pay with regular post-tax dollars, part of your income goes to taxes before you ever make a purchase. But with HSA/FSA funds, you’re spending before taxes are taken out. That’s why the average person saves roughly 30% when they use their HSA or FSA card for HSA-eligible purchases.

Here’s what that looks like:

HSA/FSA Savings Example

WHY OUR PRODUCTS QUALIFY

Ostrich Meat: Naturally lean, protein-rich, and heart-healthy, ostrich is recommended by health professionals for those looking to lower cholesterol, support iron levels, or maintain a balanced diet. These qualities make select cuts of ostrich meat HSA-eligible and a smart choice for FSA reimbursement.

Ostrich Oil Skincare: Our all-natural ostrich oil is bio-compatible with human skin, absorbing quickly to soothe eczema, reduce inflammation, and heal dryness. Because of its therapeutic benefits, our skincare line can also qualify for pre-tax purchases through your HSA/FSA.

FOOD AS MEDICINE & FUNCTIONAL SKINCARE

At American Ostrich Farms, we believe that true preventative health starts with what you put in and on your body. Our lean, iron-rich ostrich meat fuels your body with essential nutrients that support heart health, energy, and recovery—proving that food really can be medicine.

At the same time, our ostrich oil skincare delivers omega fatty acids and natural anti-inflammatory properties that work with your skin’s biology to repair, protect, and prevent issues before they start. Together, these functional products reflect a holistic approach to wellness—making them not just smart choices for your lifestyle, but also HSA-eligible options for proactive, preventative care.

IS IT COMPLIANT?

Yes—our partner Truemed makes sure compliance is covered.

Under IRS guidelines, HSA and FSA funds can be used for a wide range of qualified medical expenses. Even if a product isn’t explicitly listed, it can still be eligible if it’s deemed medically necessary by a licensed provider.

That’s where Truemed comes in. After you shop, you’ll complete a short health survey. If your purchase qualifies, a licensed provider will issue you a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN)—making your purchase fully compliant for HSA/FSA use.

HOW IT WORKS – ONE-TIME PURCHASES

Here’s How You Can Maximize Your Savings:

  3. Make Your Purchase:

HOW IT WORKS – SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASES

Here’s How You Can Maximize Your Savings:

  1. Make Your Purchase:
    Select Subscribe & Save for your go-to ostrich meat cuts or skincare staples. Do not pay with an HSA/FSA card during checkout. After your purchase, check your confirmation screen or receipt email for a link to the Truemed survey.

IS OSTRICH HARD TO DIGEST?

When people hear "red meat," they often think of beef, lamb, or venison—delicious, yes, but sometimes a little heavy on the stomach. Ostrich, on the other hand, is often described as the red meat that doesn’t weigh you down. But what does that mean for digestion?

Halloween is all fun until the fake blood, face paint, and heavy makeup need to come off. Harsh cleansers or scrubbing can leave your skin looking more like a mummy than a glowing witch. That’s where ostrich oil saves the night.
