Why Cow Ghee Is More Yellow

It is because of the pigment (the natural colouring matter of animal or plant tissue) beta-carotene. Betacarotene comes from the cows’ diet, which consists mostly of dried grass, grass, grains and cereals. The amount of beta-carotene in cow ghee depends on a few factors including cow’s breed; cow feed (grass-fed dairy produce contain more beta-carotene than cows that are fed grains); the season of the year; and the biological makeup of milk throughout the lactation period.
