are these grass fed cows?

They are fed a mixture of legumes and grass. It makes for a richer colostrum. You might find this link very helpful: http://www.holisticresources.org/products1servicesrecipes1new/view.nhtml?profile=products1servicesrecipes1new&UID=43

Yes. According to the Body Boost Website (http://colostrumbodyboost.com/), "BodyBoost grass fed bovine colostrum supplement is free of hormones, rBSTs, pesticides and antibiotics."

It says they are. Short of visiting the fOrm I guess we have to take them at their word.

I took this off their web site: Our colostrum is produced from healthy, nutritionally supplemented dairy cows raised in the United States on USDA and FDA certified dairy farms. These dairy cows are carefully fed a scientifically designed diet that contains the proper balance of legumes and grasses along with trace and other minerals to ensure consistently high potency colostrum. We believe this practice is far superior to pasture feeding that may allow the dairy cow's nutrition to chance.

Nowhere on their website does it say anything about grass fed cows. Amish "style" rolled butter, not made by anyone Amish that i can see. I was on Minerva.com

Pasture Fed does not equal Grass Fed. "grass-fed" refers to what an animal eats (grass); "pasture-raised" refers to where it eats (on a pasture). Grass fed can include hay. Pasture raised means they had access to pasture but they ate whatever was given to them.

Since there is no mention of organic anywhere on the packaging, I would assume that the answer is that it is not organic. The packaging and advertising also do not mention anything about the cows being grass fed.

I bought it because a wonderful book I have about digestive health said it was from grass fed animals. However, I checked the container and it does not say this anywhere on the can. It is the only gelatin that our health food store carries, so I assume it is the most natural around. Their website does not say "grass fed" either. Just looked.

The labeling says it is made from grass fed cows. Its ingredient list is clean and very simple. I have been using this product for several years now and love it.

All grazing animals (raised grass fed) are supplemented with grains and stored/dried forage during the winter months. Grass doesn't grow year round in temperate climates.

The label does not specifically say that it is from grass-fed cows. It does say that it is from cows that aren't treated with hormones like rbst and rbgh.

Made from beef, no pork. Does not say it is grass feed as is another brand on Amazon.

It is my understanding it is 100% whey protein from grass fed cows. Nothing else is added.

I contacted the company and it is NOT from grassfed cows. (And for at least some of us it DOES matter whether gelatin is from grassfed cattle, whether we view it as a personal health issue or an ethical one.)

I would assume its from an ox. But, more literally, probably a bovine (cow). Not a plant.

From the Kerrygold website: The vast majority of an Irish cow's diet is from rich, natural grass which grows abundantly in Ireland. Irish dairy cows graze outdoors on grass all day long for up to 312 days a year. In fact, Irish cows graze outdoors on grass for longer than almost every country in the world. Like so much of what we do, our feeding pattern follows the cycle of nature. During the winter, when grasses stop growing, Irish cows are fed dried grass (known as silage). This grass is grown throughout the year, cut fresh and stored to be used when the winter comes. Cows in Ireland calve in the spring and are therefore outdoors, grazing on green grass when they are producing milk. After calving, cows are provided with supplementary feed to help restore protein and nurture them through this period. The majority of our cows' supplementary feed is locally grown crops such as wheat and barley. As a small island, Ireland does not have enough land available to grow certain crops locally; therefore a number of crops are imported. These imported crops comply fully with strict European and Irish legislative requirements on labeling and traceability. Because our cows live outdoors for most of the year, they are free to roam and graze which is a cow's natural behavior. Although this sounds like common sense, in many milk producing countries cows will spend much of their lives indoors. As a result they do not get to eat the same amount of fresh grass. Our cows produce approximately 5,000 liters per annum. In many countries, cows are intensively farmed and milked. An Irish cow's milk `production' is deliberately much lower than in other countries as the Irish dairy system is less intensive than countries wherein dairy cows are kept indoors, fed grain exclusively and are intensively milked. While this may be less profitable, we believe that it leads to happier cows and better products. We find that what keeps our cows happy also leads to happy customers.

Yes it is produced from grass fed cows, it's also undenatured which is the best kind to use. This is a great product.

Yes, that is exactly what "pastured" means, they are allowed to graze & forage on a certified organic farm. This means the grass & all other feed they are given would be pesticide-free, as well.

The description says they are both animal and synthetic hair. So no, they're not vegan friendly.

There is gelatin in the capsules, and gelatin is made from animal bones so no, they are not vegan
