Bovine Colostrum

Bovine Colostrum

Over the past three decades, there has been a virtual explosion of research into the health benefits provided by bovine colostrum.

Here are just some of the key actions of bovine colostrum supported by scientific research:

  •  Support of immune function
    • Antimicrobial properties
    • Promotion of healthy gut flora and intestinal lining
    • Antioxidant effects


    Many health experts prefer bovine colostrum as the source of lactoferrin versus the highly purified product because it contains additional bioactive components, including IgGs and proline-rich peptides. When using bovine colostrum, check the lactoferrin content and dose accordingly. For example, for a bovine colostrum with a lactoferrin content of 20%, the dosage would correspond to 500 to 1,000 mg of bovine colostrum one to three times daily.


    One of the most convenient ways to include bovine colostrum into your diet is using a powdered form.


    Here are some alternative ways to add it to meals and snacks:
    - Mix it into a liquid of your choice, such as milk, hot chocolate, or coffee. When using milk, you can pour it over granola or cereal.

    - Mix it into creamy salad dressings, mayonnaise, or nut butter.

    - Add to smoothies.

    - Place one to two scoops in waffle or pancake mix.
