What is Colostrum?
Colostrum is the first lacteal secretion of the mammary gland prior
to and after parturition. This all natural 'first milk' and superfood
contains contains vital components like immunoglobulins, proteins,
growth & immune factors, lactoferrin, cytokines, and a perfect blend
of vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients for the human body.
Antibodies in colostrum called immunoglobulins are the major
component of the adaptive immune system in mammals. Immunoglobulins (Ig)
help direct the appropriate immune response for each type of foreign
object encountered. This can be powerfully effective in a variety of
health and wellness applications.
Bovine colostrum has properties very similar to human colostrum and
has the benefit of being obtained in large quantities. Colostrum has
numerous immune boosting agents and also contains growth factors and
bioactive components the body can use to combat internal and external
health threats.
Historically, colostrum has been used as a preventative measure or as
an active treatment of symptoms for various maladies affecting the body
like gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory tract infections,
rheumatoid arthritis, and injured body tissue. Although these are
general applications, there are over 250 known beneficial uses for
colostrum confirmed in hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific studies.
