Adrenal hearts are ghoul exclusive artificial body parts added by the Anomaly DLC. They replace the organic heart and provide the ability to go into a frenzy with increased combat ability, at the expense of making its user require more food.

Adrenal hearts can be crafted at a bioferrite shaper once the ghoul enhancements research project has been completed. Note that this research requires dark study to unlock. Each requires 20 Bioferrite, 1 Component, 13,200 ticks (3.67 mins) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter, and a crafting skill of 4.
