Humane Extraction Process
You will be glad to know that the extraction process for this product is humane and doesn’t adversely impact the mother cow or the calf. This is because the calf still receives adequate amount of colostrum through nursing. The product is carefully and thoroughly screened for various impurities and is then processed with a low heat, spray-dry technique which doesn’t harm the integrity and purity of this product. Also, the cattle are naturally raised without the use of any hormones and antibiotics
Requires Refrigeration
Colostrum itself doesn’t need refrigeration. That being said, in order to help with both digestion and absorption, the company includes Acidophilus, which is a healthy type of bacteria occurring naturally in the human gastrointestinal tract. As it’s a live organism, usually refrigeration is needed or the Acidophilus organisms would die because of heat. However, if left unrefrigerated, NOW Foods Colostrum would still be effective.
