Give your immune system a boost with colostrum

2 Comments
10 years ago

Even during the summer months, we are all susceptible to bacteria which could cause us to fall prey to the common cold or other frequent illnesses. This is why it's important to maintain proper immune system health. Aside from eating healthy, washing your hands and exercising, there is another way to boost your immune health: colostrum.

What is colostrum?
Colostrum is nature's perfect first food. It supplies immune and growth factors along with a perfect combination of vitamins and minerals to insure the health, vitality, and growth of the newborn. Colostrum has applications for every generation and it is never too late to start gaining the benefits of life's precious first food.  Colostrum is the pre-milk substance produced from all mammals at birth. True bovine colostrum is the pre-milk in the udder when the calf is born. This true colostrum can be collected during the first milking within 16 hours after birth. After this it becomes transitional milk and after 5 days after birth it is milk. It is estimated that colostrum triggers at least fifty processes in the newborn, including transferring the immune factors and the memory from the mother's own immune system. The most important components of colostrum can be broken down into three major categories: Immune System Factors, Growth Factors, and Nutritional Components.

Benefits of colostrum for the immune system
Colostrum balances the immune system and is a natural source of many vitamins, minerals, enzymes and amino acids. Supplementation of colostrum enhances the efficiency of amino acid and carbohydrate fuel uptake by the intestine, making more nutrients are made available for muscle cells and other vital tissues and organs.

Colostrum has been especially helpful to endurance athletes who have long and hard workouts. Such a workout can make them more susceptible to contracting the common cold, which can obviously affect the quality of their training and performance. According to a research review published in the journal Medicine and Sport Science, bovine colostrum is effective at supporting the immune system of endurance athletes during intense training. Some athletes use bovine colostrum to burn fat, build lean muscle and even increase stamina and vitality.

How to get colostrum in your diet
One of the easiest and best ways to get colostrum into your system is through an immune boosting supplement. Symbiotics Colostrum is a supplement which is great for those who experience physical stress or athletes training intensely. It is packed with immune factors which help to promote healthy intestinal flora.

Colostrum is also best consumed when mixed into a drink or combined with yogurt. Symbiotics Proline-Rich Polypeptides with Colostrum PLUS comes in powder form and helps to restore balance to the immune system, stimulates an underactive immune system, and is safe and effective for all ages.

    Thanks for sharing the information..Due to the lack of science behind colostrum supplements, this remedy cannot currently be recommended for treatment or prevention of any condition. Although colostrum is generally considered safe, if you’re considering the use of colostrum supplements for a specific health problem, make sure to consult your physician before starting your supplement regimen.

      Hello, actually I just wanted to say that there is LOT of research backing up the usage of colostrum for many conditions, especially conditions in which the lining of the GI tract and the bladder need to be rebuilt! There are many books out there that will mention the use of colostrum. I started using it a month ago, and it has done wonders!
      My Acupuncturist is one of the many who highly recommend using it on a daily basis!
      Thanks. Xenia
