How to Take Our Organic Bovine Colostrum Powder
Our organic bovine colostrum powder is best taken before or in-between meals. It has a somewhat pleasant sour/grassy taste.
- The best way to take it is to let it slowly dissolve in the mouth and then chew and swallow
- The dried powder gets sticky when it is in your mouth, don’t just swallow the entire chunk.
- Traditional Food’s colostrum contains 30% lactose. If you have a problem digesting lactose you might consider a lactase enzyme.
- Our colostrum is de-caseinate, and so it does not contain casein.
- Our colostrum is carefully spry freeze-dried, there are no additives/fillers like toxic magnesium stearate.
- Our colostrum contains at least 35% IgG. IgG stands for Immunoglobins G which represents how many immune factors are in our colostrum.
The raw colostrum serves to protect newborn mammals and infants at the beginning of their lives. This very special secretion guarantees for a good start into this existence. Colostrum of cows stands out due to a very high content of immune factors. Since the nascent calf does not get any immune factors intrauterine it is born without any active protection. The mother’s immune power is concentrated in the colostrum and by suckling gets transferred to the calf.
More Details About Our Raw & Organic Bovine Colostrum Powder
Our provider of our Raw Grass Fed Colostrum Powder collects the liquid Colostrum for human consumption 6 hours after the calf has fed on the first colostrum.
This way all the calves on their farm get super immunity and the opportunity to thrive, once again providing an eco-friendly and humanitarian treatment of their dairy cattle.
The collection of the colostrum for human consumption is only collected after 6 hours for their customers in order to get the maximum benefits from the colostrum for human consumption and then it is Freeze Dried.
Already within the first 24 hours, the content of the immune factors decreases by 90 percent!
How can this provider can one divert colostrum from the calf with a good conscience and without the off-spring coming too short?
This is only possible with animals like cattle, goats, and sheep which have been cultivated for centuries. Their milk yield was increased over decades by specific breeding. In the same manner, the amount of colostrum increased correspondingly. The cows of our USA ‘Supplier’ averages a quantity of approximately 5 liters colostrum-per cow after the first 12 hours after the birth of the calf.
Therefore, colostrum is just a very rare substance and organic colostrum even more so! Our farm sources endeavor to produce colostrum products as gently as possible to reach an excellent quality every time and conserve the potency of this bio-active powder.
The Body Repairing Ability of Grass Fed Raw & Organic Colostrum
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in colostrum nutritionally stimulates the healthy production of other growth factors, including IGF-1. The other growth factors provide nutritional support for in colostrum healthy development of blood vessels and a regulator of cellular migration.
Supporting the Immune System
Colostrum provides nutritional support for immune system in healthy individuals and provides nutritional support for the immune system in healthy individuals. The growth factors in colostrum help provide nutritional support for recovery and repair after exercise.*
Healing and Sealing the Gut
Peptide growth factors are constantly present in the gastrointestinal tract, being secreted by glands; for example, Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) from the salivary glands, or ingested in foodstuffs such as milk and colostrum. Colostrum supports the healthy maintenance of the gastrointestinal tract by supporting the health growth and maintenance of intestinal mucosal lining. IGF 1, TGF, and EGF that are present in human and bovine colostrum are supports healthy digestion by providing nutritional support for the healthy maintenance of the GI tract.*
Colostrum in Scientific Review
Colostrum is a pre-milk fluid produced in the mammary glands of mammals that have recently given birth. Newborns have immature digestive and immune systems, so the enzymes, antibodies, and growth factors colostrum provides promote growth and fight disease. Though colostrum is produced by all mammals, colostrum supplements are usually derived from bovine or (less frequently) goat sources. Colostrum has become a popular nutritional supplement because it is a rich source of enzymes, antibodies, and growth factors not found in other dairy products.
The undeveloped intestinal tract of a newborn allows the growth factors present in colostrum to pass freely through the intestinal wall for absorption. However, fully-developed adult mammal intestines will break down the beneficial compounds before they can be absorbed into the blood stream. Though digestive enzymes prevent colostrum growth factors from affecting muscles, they will still exert a local effect, which increase intestinal integrity. This prevents inflammation, like the kind that can be caused by prolonged, intense exercise, like competitive cycling. Outside of intense exercise, supplementing colostrum will have an effect similar to supplementing whey protein or casein protein.
The Athlete Factor
Athletes often supplement colostrum in an effort to increase fat burning, add lean mass, or increase strength. Since their digestive systems are fully developed, these effects do not occur, and the body breaks down the growth factors and enzymes that colostrum provides before they can be transported to muscle cells.
The antibodies present in colostrum are also effective at reducing diarrhea caused by Escherichia coli and reducing the risk of HIV infection. To prevent E. coli-induced diarrhea, the colostrum must be obtained from an immunized animal.
