4Life™ Bovine Derived Materials and Bovine Spongiform Encephalophathy (BSE)

Dr. C.W. McCausland
Director of Research and Development

BSE has been a fairly publicized issue recently, however the discovery of BSE dates back to 1981. To date, there has never been any incident of BSE in the United States. Because there is no practical method of detection for BSE, the best way to insure a safe product containing bovine derived materials is to avoid purchase of materials from countries that have reported BSE incidence.

4Life™ has been monitoring the BSE situation closely with vendors who produce capsules and the thymus complex known as ThymuPro™ (formerly known as ThyRex™). Our vendors have offered written official statements to 4Life™ assuring that our bovine derived materials do not originate nor are they produced in any region of the world where BSE is known or even suspected to exist.
