Colostrum 480mg - 240 caps., (Trimedica)

Colostrum Farm Fresh Ultra Immune Support Natural Antibiotic Action Bovine Colostrum has been used as a supplement in Scandinavia for centuries. Since the end of the 18th century through World War II, Colostrum was used for its immune powers all over the world. However, with the advent of antibiotics, Colostrum became less popular and it was abandoned for new synthetic drugs. After 1950, and the convincing discoveries about the benefits found in breast milk, researchers began to re-examine this important substance and found that it had much to contribute to the health of humans. Bovine colostrum is used because it is very similar to human colostrum, and can contain even more powerful health-giving ingredients. TriMedica FarmFresh Colostrum contains powerful immune factors called immunoglobulins that have been proven to support immune function. FarmFresh Colostrum contains all five of the immunoglobulins found in humans, and especially large amounts of the four important antibodies - IgG, IgM, IgA, and Secretory IgA. These powerful immune system supporters are made even more powerful by the presence of lactoferrin, which binds iron in the stomach. This is important because iron deficiency is a major cause of a depressed immune system. Colostrum also contains cytokines which have been found to be extremely helpful for maintaining proper cellular function. TriMedica FarmFresh Colostrum is made from only the highest quality first-milking colostrum and contains the highest possible immunoglobulin counts, so you get the best quality anywhere. Many products on the shelves today are made from colostrum collected anywhere from 12 to 48 hours after the calves are born, which means that the transition from colostrum to milk may have already begun. Colostrum changes into milk fairly rapidly, and as it does, the fats and proteins that carry the critical immune and growth factors quickly disappear. At the same time, the level of lactose present rises dramatically.
