What Is the Difference Between Organic Grass-fed Whey and Grass-fed Whey?

Follow

The terms “organic” and “grass-fed” describe different aspects of a product. A whey protein can be grass-fed without being certified organic.

Natural Force Organic Grass-fed Whey is both USDA Organic Certified and made from milk sourced from grass-fed cows.

What Does USDA Organic Certification Add?

USDA Organic certification requires farms and producers to follow specific standards for how agricultural products are grown, handled, and processed.

For our Organic Grass-fed Whey, this means the milk comes from cows raised under certified organic practices.

What Does “Grass-fed” Mean?

“Grass-fed” describes what the cows are fed. Our Organic Grass-fed Whey is sourced from heritage-breed Jersey cows with year-round access to pasture on California family farms.

What Other Certifications Does Organic Grass-fed Whey Have?

In addition to USDA Organic certification, Organic Grass-fed Whey is:

• Project Non-GMO Verified
• American Humane Certified
• Certified Keto
• Certified Paleo-Friendly

These certifications address different aspects of the product, including organic standards, non-GMO verification, animal welfare, and dietary standards.

Bottom Line

A product labeled only grass-fed and a product that is certified organic and grass-fed are not necessarily subject to the same certification standards.

Natural Force Organic Grass-fed Whey combines certified organic sourcing with grass-fed milk and additional third-party certifications.
