StemC™ is derived from the placenta of only highly-acclaimed, pure, thoroughbred horses which are raised in Hokkaido under the most stringent quality standards and favorable environments. These thoroughbred horses are fed a specially tailored high-nutrition diet and are known for their Power, Speed and Strength. As placenta originating from pure, thoroughbred horses is very rare, it can only be delivered in limited quantities.
