does this product require refrigeration after opening?

I went on their website to ask this very same thing and found that this particular one does not require refrigeration. I always keep my supplements in the fridge anyways so that's where it went.

I bought a bottle at the health food store and they were in the fridge. so even though you don't need to, I will keep mine in the fridge.

no indication on the label and we have used for maybe 5 or 6 years with no ill effects -well, we did get older, of course.

No it does not but keep it away from appliances that emit heat or the capsules will adhere to each other.

No, refrigeration is not necessary, but I keep mine in the frig because it can get pretty warm in my kitchen throughout the day (I live in an apartment that faces west). I will take a handful with me in a travel vitamin bottle when I go on vacation and don't refrigerate those with no problems.

The container does say to "refrigerate after opening." Spoilage probably would not occur after opening, but if airborne fungal spores entered the container you might get fungal growth, and lowering the temperature of any object by ten degrees cuts the rate of reaction (or decomposition) in half. It's always a good idea to refrigerate from my standpoint of a retired food safety scientist. I even refrigerate bread, but then I may be a bit of a nut.

No. We have been using this product for months and I have never refrigerated it.

This product is shipped room temperature, but is sealed. The label reads, "Refrigerate after opening."

I don't refrigerate it. It has been sitting on my shelf for over a year and I just used some. More than half the bottle left since I bought it well over a year ago.

No, the label does not indicate that the product needs to be refrigerated. The label does state, "Once opened, we recommend using the oil within 30 days. To help maintain freshness, store in a cool, dry location away from the stove and other heating appliances. If your home is above 85 degrees and you cannot store it at a cooler temperature, it is wise to use refrigeration." I hope this additional information helps. Thank you. Trafalgar Associates

Yes. Once opened, it does require refrigeration. Also, it's pretty chalky and the top needs to be completely clean off or the cap won't screw on tightly.

Hi. Once it's opened, I refrigerate to prevent the enzymes from reacting to it's environment. But it's not required.

No it does not need to be refrigerated. If you notice, in grocery stores, they don't refrigerate them.

Other answers to this question say that the package says to refrigerate after opening. I do not have the bottle in front of me to verify, but I always refrigerate it myself.

You need to refrigerate a bottle that has been opened. Unopened bottles do not need refrigeration.

Yes it does once it has been opened. Most products that doesn't need refrigeration have had icky chemicals add to them that you wouldn't want in your body. This is an excellent brand. Best I've found so far.

In my opinion it should not make any difference. But once you open it does need to be refrigerated.

I do believe so. I keep it refrigerated once opened. It probably has been up to 70 degrees when closed.

no. it is not refrigerated, and does not need to be, unless individual bottle is open. i buy for my mother, but she says it has a long expiration period.

Nowhere on the bottle does it say refrigerate after opening. I've used it many times with no problem; I love the product.

There is nothing on the container that says it needs to be refridgerated; I never have. It does, however, recommend using it within 60 days of opening it.
