• As stated in the summary, during the course of
  this article we are going to explore the health
  benefits of bovine colostrum for humans. While
  there are few studies in this area, and evidence
  is anecdotal, we feel that its important for you
  to understand what the potential benefits may be.
  
•  
• First, though, lets start by asking what is
  colostrum? Colostrum is a special type of milk
  that mammals produce when they first give birth
  (only mammals produce milk, so that makes sense).
  It lasts between 3 to 4 days on average. It
  contains some very special ingredients to help
  the mammal babies thrive outside the environment
  of the womb (more on these in a minute).
  Colostrum has a much thicker consistency than
  ordinary milk it is also a different colour, and
  tends to be much yellower.

• So, why do humans want to start taking colostrum
  as a health supplement? There are many reasons,
  and we will list them now
•  
• People take colostrum for its immune-boosting
  ingredients. Colostrum contains various
  antibodies and other infection-fighting
  ingredients (e.g. probiotics) that help a baby
  (mammal) fight off infections. It is natures
  first immunisation. When we grow up, we get
  vaccines, when were first born, we get
  colostrum. Clearly, the type of infections
  protected against in cows does not necessarily
  translate to us and so colostrum is not a perfect
  fit for humans in this regard. However, it does
  have some immune-boosting properties, we believe.
  People that take the supplement often self-report
  as suffering from fewer coughs and colds.

• It contains a great number of vitamins and
  minerals and these are in a form that is much
  easier to absorb than the traditional pills and
  potions that we take now. The vitamins,
  nutrients, and minerals of colostrum are fat
  soluble, and this allows us to absorb them at a
  much greater amount than tablets.
•  
• It has a lot of ingredients that aid digestion.
  People often take colostrum if they suffer from
  frequent digestive discomfort. While it doesnt
  work in every case, it can work very well for
  some people. Clearly, if you have something
  serious such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's
  Disease, then we would recommend against taking a
  supplement before speaking to your GP. However,
  for people with minor discomforts, they often
  find relief from taking colostrum.

• It has a high level of growth factors. While this
  is intended to help infant mammals grow, when
  taken as an adult, it can have some benefits and
  protect against problems caused by a lack of
  growth factor produced by the pituitary gland.
  Human adults that have a deficiency in growth
  factor are frequently weaker and fatter than
  those that do in particular, it causes fatigue
  and lethargy, as well as impaired concentration
  and memory.

• We hope that you now have a good understanding of
  the many reasons that people take colostrum as a
  health supplement. If you would like to learn
