So, what is bovine?
Bovine refers to anything that is related to cattle, such as cows, oxen, and buffaloes. As a food ingredient, bovine typically refers to the meat, but it can also include other products derived from cattle, such as milk, cheese, and gelatin. Bovine meat is a rich source of protein, iron, and other essential nutrients, making it a popular ingredient in many cuisines around the world. However, it is important to ensure that bovine products are sourced from reputable farms and processed under strict safety standards to prevent the spread of diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as "mad cow disease.".
