Colostrum Supplements
Colostrum supplements are good for many types of ailments. Studies have shown them to boost the immune system, detoxify the body and also supply the body with a pure source of liquid protein. In fact it is so rich in protein that it is recommended for people who are so frail that they are unable to ingest solid food.
However colostrum, which is a clear colorless fluid that is emitted from a mammal mother (including humans and cows) just a few days after the mother has given birth, is recently being touted as a cure all for all kinds of disorders when not all the facts are not in about what ingesting this substance from cows actually does. This is why you must be very careful when shopping for colostrum as not all of the claims about what it can do are substantiated by scientific research just yet.
Colostrum supplements, which are sold in powdered form or as tablets, are sometimes advertised as helping to build muscle, cure depression, help a person lose weight, curing head injuries, regulating blood sugar, fighting cancer and improving mood. It is important to remember that these claims have not been substantiated by any real medical studies. For instance, just because colostrum is rich in protein does not mean that it is a miracle weight loss drugs. These types of conclusions are probably derived from the fact that many people display an improvement in their health in general after taking bovine colustrum.
So what can colostrum supplements do for you? Scientific studies have proved that it can help improve the condition of your colon so that it produces friendly bacteria. This is important especially if you consider that most alternative doctors believe that “death begins in the colon.”
Colostrum supplements have also been shown to boost immunity in frail or ailing patients. You will also see online that colostrum is often sold, as being helpful for AIDS patients but you should really consult with your doctor before taking it. This is because AIDS patients suffer from an overactive immune system and the ingestion of colostrum supplements may actually push it into overdrive. If you are HIV positive or have AIDS this may be the last kind of effect you may want to achieve.
Are colostrum supplements for everyone? The answer is no. Pregnant or nursing women should avoid colostrum supplements. This is because the bovine source of colostrum could interfere with what the human mother naturally produces to nourish her baby. There can be too much of a good thing!
Colostrum supplements are also not recommended for people with certain types of cancer especially prostrate, colorectal and lung cancer. This is because bovine colostrum contains an insulin-like growth factor-1 that can encourage the growth of the cancer. If you have this type of cancer or are even at risk for it you should exercise caution before taking colostrum supplements. Like any type of supplement you should consult with your doctor before taking bovine colostrum in case it is not good for you in a way that you do not immediately perceive.

The Benefits of Bovine Colostrum

The Benefits of Bovine Colostrum
Bovine colostrum is the pre-milk fluid produced by cows for just a few days after they give birth. Human mothers also produce the human form of colostrum for just a couple of days after giving birth and it is this clear colorless fluid that is thought to boost the immune system of an infant. The theory is that after or during a critical illness, taking bovine colostrum (as taking human colostrum is illegal) can help boost the human immune system just as it did when the human was an infant.
Bovine colostrum has many benefits, especially for the recovering invalid:
This fluid contains four to five times the protein as regular milk so it is an ideal whole food for people who have lost the ability to eat to consume. Of course this is not an ideal food for invalids who suffer from lactose intolerance although very ill individuals have been known to take a pill for lactose intolerance in order to still receive bovine colustrum benefits.
Bovine colostrum also contains many different factors that can help detoxify the body. It is thought to help eliminate the yeasts and harmful organisms that live in the colon and cause disease. These yeasts and organism produce alcohol and other toxic substances that strip a person of their ability to be energetic. Colostrum changes the environment in the colon from acidic to alkaline so that these organisms cannot thrive. In this way bovine colostrum has been effective for individuals suffering from some of the more mysterious ailments such as fibromylagia and chronic fatigue system.
The fact that bovine colostrum contains so much “good bacteria” also makes it a valuable ally to those suffering from annoying bowel conditions such as constipation, diarrhea and irritable colon diseases. Bovine colostrum has been especially shown to be effective at fighting off diarrhea in children and infants.
Colostrum also contains several infection fighting agents that help kill bacteria and viruses. This is invaluable for ill individuals who are vulnerable to being preyed opon by ordinary staph infections that can turn deadly.
Perhaps its main benefit is as an immune system booster. Bovine colostrum, like human colostrum contains what are called immunostimulatory substances that help protect compromised immune systems from attack. This makes it an invaluable ally in the fight against AIDS. In fact a special type of bovine colostrum is often recommended for AIDS patients as a way of protecting themselves against infections and disease.
In some circles bovine colostrum is also taken as part of a program for extending life or reducing the effects of aging. This is because this substance is considered to be even purer than mother’s milk and four times as nutritious. Often consuming it kicks off a cycle of detoxification that does lead to brighter eyes, clearer skin, better smelling breath and a more youthful appearance in general.
Some makers of bovine colostrum also claim that it burns fat and builds muscles but there are no studies in existence that prove these claims as being fact.

Symbiotics Colostrum
April 13th, 2007
Symbiotics Colostrum
Symbiotics colostrum is a nickname for the colostrum manufactured by Symbiotics of New Zealand that is also known as New Life Colostrum. Like all colostrum on the market this type is manufactured from the clear fluid that is emitted by cows.
The difference between this type of colostrum and other brands is that the Symbiotics is created from the fluids of pasture-fed cows in New Zealand. Symbiotics colostrum is also regarded to be a premium supplement because these cows have not had their maternal fluids tainted by antibiotics or the growth hormones (such as the infamous bovine growth hormone) that is given to cows in other countries to have them increase their milk production.
Whether you are buying Symbiotics Colostrum or colostrum under another brand name probably the most important thing you should look for is information about where the colostrum comes from. Colostrum from cows that are not pasture fed or that is taken from cows that have been injected with antibiotics or growth hormones could actually make you even sicker and even create a resistance to antibiotics later in life. This is why sticking to brands of colostrum that is made in countries that have banned bovine growth hormone, such as Symbiotics Colostrum from New Zealand, is a good idea.
Probably the worst country to buy colostrum in is the United States where the use of the bovine growth hormone, antibiotics and forced feeding of animal entrails is still a common practice. Your best course of action is to stick with brands that are known to be safe like Symbiotics Colostrum.
Another good brand of symbiotic colostrum is made by Naturade. Naturade has been acquired by New Life Foods, Inc. which makes Symbiotics Colustrum. Both companies have similar strategies and sell lines of colostrum products that have been manufactured so that they provide the highest IG (insulin growth factor) possible. Both companies are prohibited by New Zealand’s government from changing, misadvertertising or making false claims about the product.Why is insulin growth factor such an important component of Symbiotics Colostrum? Although it sounds like something that regulates blood sugar, it actually doesn’t and this is how the product got its false reputation for curing diabetes. It actually succeeds more as an agent that detoxifies the colon and improves the immune system. The stabilizing of blood sugar may be the long-term result of the over all stabilization of the body once a person’s health returns. The higher the amount of colostrum in the supplements the more effective it will be. Colostrum Symbiotics is known for having a high-standardized dose of colostrum in each formula. The New Life and Naturade companies have also gotten quite creative with how they package the colostrum, which formerly was only available in tablet or powder form. It is now available in different flavored chews such as pineapple and chocolate. This candy like form of the supplement is a boon for those who are trying to boost the health of cranky children who don’t like to take pills.

What is Bovine Colostrum?
April 12th, 2007
Bovine Colostrum
What is it and how can it help me?
Bovine Colostrum is a newer supplement that has only been around about a decade. It is valued because it can help boost your immune system, detoxify the body and delay aging. It is also a pure source of liquid food for those who have difficulty eating.
Bovine colostrum is created from the clear, colorless pre-milk fluid that is produced from the mammary glands of a cow. All mammals, including humans, produce this type of fluid for a few days after they give birth. This bovine colostrum is a rich source of antibodies and once passed along to a calf helps the newborn defend itself against various infectious microorganism, especially those that could infect the intestinal organs.
During the first few days of birth a human mother also produces the colostrum. Although human colostrum might be more suitable for boosting the human immune system it is illegal to sell it. This is why bovine colostrum (the next best thing to a human mother’s colostrum) has been developed to try and help boost the number of antibodies in a person suffering from any kind of infection.
Bovine colostrum is also full of good bacteria that might help restore balance to a human intestinal system that is bloated or diseased as the result of an overgrowth of yeast due to an over consumption of sugar or antibiotics.
This type of colostrum can also help people recovering from illnesses or who are compromised when it comes to eating solid food because it is one of the richest sources of protein on earth. Bovine colostrum actually contains three to four times as much protein as regular cow’s milk.
Other good things for you that are found in bovine colostrum include casein, lactoferrin, alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin, and many insulin-like growth factors including IGF-1, IGF-2 and TGFBeta and EGF. These are all subtle factors that can help improve everything from your blood sugar to your energy levels to your resistance against cancer. They can also improve the look of your skin and encourage the elimination of toxins.
The main purpose of this supplement, which is growing more and more popular every day, is it’s immune fighting properties. It is treasured for its immunoglobulins of the IgG type, which are protective against such infectious microorganisms as Cryptosporidium parvum (a major cause of AIDS-associated diarrhea) and all kinds of bacteria that causes diarrhea including Escherichia coli strains, Shigella flexneri, Clostridium difficile, and rotavirus, the most common cause of terrible diarrhea in youngsters.
If you have AIDS a special type of bovine colostrum has been created. Cows are injected with AIDS so that they will produce colostrum that has AIDS antibodies in them that are appropriate for helping victims of the disease fight off its ravaging effects.
A note to those with lactose intolerance – bovine colostrum may not be a good supplement for you to take! It contains the same type of lactose that cow’s milk does so you are likely to suffer from the same kind of constipation and bloating that you do when you consume any kind of dairy product that comes from a cow.

New Life Colostrum
January 21st, 2007
New Life Colostrum
There are not that many companies that actually manufacture colostrum from cows but New Life Colostrum is one of the most reputable of them. The bovine colostrum that comprises this particular supplement product is as organic as it gets when it comes to this type of nutrient.
The New Life company’s claim to fame is that the colostrum it collects only comes from healthy cows that are fed in a pasture. New Life Colostrum is also free of the bovine growth hormone as well as the antibiotics and other types of hormones that are traditionally given to cows to boost their milk production.
The product itself comes from way down under and is made by a company called Symbiotics of New Zealand. Cow’s colostrum manufactured by New Life is freeze dried and packaged in capsules so that the product remains effective. As it is transported from so far away it might be a good idea to check the expiry date on your bottle of New Life Colostrum before you buy it from a health food store. It is also best if colostrum is kept refrigerated after it is opened and also beforehand. If possible buy from a vendor that refrigerates the colostrum before selling it. This will make sure that the ingredients in the product are as bioactive as possible.
How much can you expect to pay for New Life Colostrum? In a health food store it is very expensive and usually marked up to be priced over one hundred dollars. This is especially true if you live in a country other than the United States. However you can definitely find New Life Colostrum for almost half that price if you do a good search for it on Google or Yahoo on the Internet.
However the high price of the product is probably worth it if you have a child who is always suffering from repetitive infections or if you are suffering from an immune disorder of some kind. There are substances in New Life Colostrum that not only boost the immune system but also actively fight off viruses and infections. It can also be very helpful for helping the body fight of allergies. New Life Colostrum is even prescribed by some alternative doctors to help fight off persistent childhood disorders such as environmental sensitivities and earaches.
As an added bonus colostrum also contains all kinds of enzymes and probiotic type factors that help cleanse the intestines and detoxify the body in general. This is why the supplement is so helpful when it comes to assisting people who are having problems eating after a difficult physical recovery from a disease or operation.
New Life Colostrum is also used as an alternative food source for those who cannot swallow solid proteins as it contains four times as much protein as normal cow’s milk. It is definitely a Godsend for those who are undernourished and need to rebuild their body tissues quickly. This is because in terms of its composition it is almost a perfect food that needs no improving on by mankind.
