The egg whites are in specialized refrigerated packing designed to allow the egg whites to thaw slowly. The egg whites are still good for 8-10 days after they leave the warehouse. Once you receive your package, please refrigerate or freeze when you arrive home. The egg whites may be partially frozen, completely thawed or even somewhat lukewarm, which is fine. They DO need to be completely thawed before you can use them. If they are still frozen when you get them, you can set one in your sink for a few hours or overnight to thaw. Then shake well and place in your refrigerator. They will stay good for 90 to 120 days in your refrigerator. If they do arrive completely thawed or seem warm, shake well and refrigerate at once. Do not open for 24 hours. They can be refrozen if you are not going to use them right away. Always smell before using. As long as they are odorless, they will be fit for consumption after being placed in the refrigerator for 24 hours, or frozen for future use. Further handling instructions will be included in the box.

It is recommended by the manufacturer. If you order the item as a "fulfilled by Amazon" unfortunately the item will not be refrigerated while in-transit.

No, it does not need to be refrigerated after opening. It takes a couple of months to use up a 32 ounce bottle stored at room temperature with no problems

It is not necessary to refrigerated, but it will prolong freshness. This is noted in the packet information.

Hello! We do not use refrigerated carriers to ship orders. Please be assured that the product is hermetically sealed and the probiotic count exceeds the label claim to ensure all label claims hold true at the point of receipt for the customer. Refrigeration is recommended once opened. We hope this information is helpful!

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

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.

I don't know if Amazon stores this item under refrigeration, but it is not shipped in a refrigerated container. Once I receive the item, it is kept in the refrigerator.

The storage handling on the label states to store at controlled temperatures. It would be assumed that shipping and handling should also be at controlled temperatures. However, "controlled temperatures" is not clarified. I store mine where it will be cool and not frozen or subject to hot temperatures.

I never refrigerated it. It would say on the container if it needed to be refrigerated. I never noticed anything.

I do keep it refrigerated, and don't order if its going to be hot, you may loose some of the effectiveness or possibly ruin it completely. Great product IMHO

No, it does not need to be refrigerated after opening. Unless you prefer to take it cold. It's up to you!

It's in brown paper in a box which is fine in the winter. It doesn't have to be refrigerated, it's just a good idea. This company guarantees the bacteria are alive by the exp. on the bottle, not the day it leaves manufacture.

Hello Christina, We do not refrigerate this product during shipment. The products are kept in a temperature-controlled environment at our facility right up until the time they're shipped to customers. While extended exposure to high temperatures could have an effect, the shipping time is not long enough to have a significant impact on the quality of the products.

I don't know about shipping, I got it from my dentist, it was not refrigerated though. I the description it says (Keep the product refrigerated to maintain maximum shelf life - Do not store above 40F - Do not freeze).

hi,No, it was shipped in a plain plastic bag that has been heat sealed, not a resealable zip lock type seal.

Probiotics are not shipped refrigerated. However, please be assured that when a manufacturer formulates a probiotic, they are aware that the product will not be able to be refrigerated 100% of the time. The manufacturer knows that products will not be shipped refrigerated, therefore there is a very decent amount of time allowed so that a product can be shipped and still exceed its potency. Please also be assured that this product is stored at our Swanson facility under refrigeration at all times. As long as your product is sealed and not in direct sunlight, its potency and integrity will not be compromised.
