What is colostrum?
Nature has designed colostrum as the "complete food" for the newborn of every species of mammal.
Colostrum is designed to provide the foundation for the immune system as well as vital nutrients for tissue development, energy and growth. The complex formulation of immune factors , growth factors, vitamins and minerals in colostrum provides these essential factors in much higher concentrations than anywhere else in nature.
In recent times bovine colostrum has become a well documented nutritional supplement.
Why Bovine Colostrum?
Human babies acquire their early immunity via the placenta while still in the womb and through breast feeding in the first few months of life. Cows, however, provide all immune and growth factors to their calves through colostrum. To achieve this the bovine colostrum contains up to 20 times more immune factors than human colostrum.
As bovine colostrum is not species specific it can be highly beneficial to all other mammals.
Humans can quite safely take it and gain many benefits from its use.
What are the Benefits of Bovine Colostrum?
There are two main fractions present in colostrum: the immune fraction and the growth fraction.
There is strong evidence from scientific research that taking bovine colostrum can help:
- Boost immunity
- Destroy bacteria, viruses, yeasts and parasites
- Accelerate tissue repair and healing
