Sorry we do not ship with any ice packs. They do not need any refrigeration for short time during shipping. When opened for use or when kept in inventory they should be kept under refrigeration. Thank you House of Nutrition

Yes, unopened is absolutely the best way because they don't last super long otherwise (ask me how I know). I am almost 100% sure they do not have to be refrigerated while still unopened.

Hi! It doesn't need to be refrigerated and they can go in your luggage, but not your carry on. Thank you!

They have to be chilled from the manufacturer as well. Chilled at the door means nothing if they have been stored in 90 degree heat for a month in a warehouse. Got to a local distributor.

They come in sealed pods. I dont refrigerate them and have never noticed anything less than a fresh taste

They are supposed to be stored at cool temps & I received mine in a super hot box. Whatever live bacteria existed were destroyed without a doubt. They should ship them with cold packs. I returned them for this reason & the replacement arrived exactly the same plus was left out in the sun. Would be great if they took care of their product. I won't be ordering again.

I've never had to refrigerate them. Once opened I keep them in an air tight container.

Oh, I just saw on the bag that refrigeration is recommended after opening. Oops! They're still good, I've had them for about a month or little more.

I buy it at the health food store and they keep these little critters refrigerated so I think they need to be...unless the shipper can guarantee it in a refrigerated envelope.

It does recommend that they either be refrigerated or I believe kept at 70 degrees or below. I don't have a bottle with me while I am writing this.

I know this is probably way too late (a year!) to help you, but just in case someone else is curious I thought I would answer. The bottle ships in a standard box, unrefrigerated. It's sealed on the outside and under the cap, and the recommendation on the bottle says to refrigerate. A friend of mine works in a health food store and says they do not arrive refrigerated to her store, and they just put them in the refrigerated case after they receive them.

I only kept mine refrigerated after opening them. Otherwise, they were good sealed at room temperature.

Just put them in the fridge they will be fine, BUT, unless you live in a remote location GO TO THE STORE AND BUY THE BAGS THEY ARE CHEAPER NO SHIPPING. THIS ORDER IS JUST 6 BAGS, THAT GO FOR 4.50 (&sometimes; on sale) A BAG SO YOU ARE NOT SAVING MONEY.

Hi,It does not need to be refrigerated although it tastes better that way. I have the automatic shipments that come from some vendor other than the manufacturer and most of the shipments have been curdled. They are drinkable but there are thick pieces throughout that are a little gross to me.

The packaging process cooks them. They cannot remain raw, and still be packaged.

Yes, they do need to be refrigerated or placed in the freezer. I do not recommend buying this product at this price, however. This price is inflated compared to the $24.99 Babies R Us charges. It's a great product though.

Since they are not refrigerated in stores I assume they are still okay not to be refrigerated after opened. I don't believe the package says to keep refrigerated.
