Poor S/H: Should be shipped with an ice-pack in summer
I believe this product is very high quality. 3 stars are given because of how it was delivered. I order via Amazon Prime (AP), which I love, but, have to be careful when ordering supplements, apparently, using AP. If I order this same supplement from another co., they package it in an ice pack, even though technically it doesn't need to be refrigerated en route (this might be true during the cool or cold winter months). However, when we are in the middle of the hot summer months, this, especially as a probiotic, should be wrapped in an ice-pack. I have had supplements delivered to our mailbox (a black one, which becomes an oven in summer) with no ice-pack on them. Almost all supplement containers will warn against storing in heat. So why packaged and delivered with no ice-pack during hot summer months has me mystified. Supplements of any sort cost a lot of money. Why would I want to have the quality of the product compromised by S/H from the company?? I hand-pick much of what I purchase on Amazon based upon the reviews (a great service!). In this case, it was prescribed by a naturopath. I don't want to throw money down the drain just because of poor S/H. Needless to say, I won't be ordering this via AP, but through another non-Amazon co. until the cold weather hits.
