What is Colostrum?
Colostrum is a substance produced by female mammals during late pregnancy and in the first few days after giving birth. It is the first food, and the means of transferring important immune and growth factors from mother to newborn. Colostrum contains antibodies that stimulate a newborn infant's immunity against disease. It also contains an abundance of nutrients including vitamins, minerals, enzymes and amino acids.
Colostrum is lower in fat and higher in protein than ordinary milk.
Bovine Colostrum
Research has shown that the molecular structure of bovine colostrum is identical to human colostrum, and that the immune and growth factors found in bovine colostrum are beneficial to humans of all ages. Some bovine colostrum benefits include enhanced immune function, increased energy levels, fat loss, muscle gain, anti-aging, acceleration of healing and an increase in general vitality and well-being.
