Why is it important for colostrum to be made at a USDA regulated plant?
In order to maintain USDA licensure a company must adhere to stringent government standards of health and consumer safety and are inspected to insure they are in compliance. This includes testing for biological toxicity and absence of pathogenic microbes and antibodies. Continual monitoring and certification by the USDA ensures that the plant consistently provides the safest and most efficacious colostrum on the market. If you buy colostrum produced in a foreign country or colostrum from a non-USDA certified facility, you cannot be guaranteed any of level of safety in the product you are buying.
