Colostrum - A Potent Boost To Immune Function

Colostrum - A Potent Boost To Immune Function

The onset of almost all infectious and degenerative disease, including cancer and heart disease, is preceded or accompanied by lowered immune system function. Studies show colostrum contains powerful immune factors (Immunoglobulins, Lactoferrin, Cyto-kines and Interferon) that work to restore potent immune function.

Colostrum also contains PRP (Polyproline-Rich-Peptides), shown in medical studies to help boost an underactive immune system. PRP helps restore the thymus gland to optimal functioning capability. The thymus produces the vital T-cells which fight viruses and antigens. The PRP found in colostrum also helps balance the overactive immune system present in autoimmune diseases — conditions in which the body actually attacks itself. This makes colostrum extremely effective with illnesses such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus and Scleraderma.

All the anecdotal testimonials point to this substance’s amazing ability to prevent disease. People who have been taking colostrum for a while report that they don’t get any more colds or flu. People who start taking colostrum when they are already sick with a viral or bacterial infection report greatly accelerated healing and recovery times.

Colostrum’s Growth Factors — Not Just For Newborns:

Colostrum contains many important growth factors which promote healing and actually create an anti-aging response. The list of benefits are as follows:

Independent medical studies show that colostrum’s growth factors:

• Regenerate and accelerate normal growth of aged or injured muscle, bone, cartilage, skin collagen and nerve tissue.

• Help burn fat for fuel instead of muscle tissue in times of fasting (diet)

• Help build and retain lean muscle.

• Repair our body’s vital DNA and RNA.

• Balance and regulate blood sugar levels

• Heal burns, surgeries, cuts, abrasions and mouth sores with topical application

• Control infection and pain associated with gingivitis, sensitive teeth and dental work.

• Help regulate blood glucose levels and “brain chemicals”, providing alertness and better concentration.

• Help regulate the brain’s “feel-good” chemicals to brighten our moods.

So, not only can colostrum make one feel better and heal faster, but it can also help one look better. Colostrum is as powerful as illegal, synthetic steroids at creating new muscle mass when bodybuilding exercise is performed!

Also it is something that is good for all — no side effects, no problems, no contra-indications. If one takes antibiotics to combat an infection, it will weaken the immune system, not strengthen it. It will also seriously damage intestinal flora and destroy the acidophilus bacteria that help control harmful bacteria and yeasts in the bowel. If one is foolish enough to take non-prescription steroids, the side-effects are even worse — hormonal imbalance and endocrine system damage, reproductive system damage and cardiovascular damage.

What’s more, the growth factors present in colostrum have also been shown to have an important anti-aging effect. Skin appears more youthful, age and “liver” spots disappear, bone mass and density is increased and sexual function is improved and restored. Maybe there is a fountain of youth after all!

What's best about colostrum is that it is a whole, complete natural substance that has been minimally processed. This is not some kind of new natural “designer supplement” made in a laboratory somewhere — it is nature’s own natural wonder drug. It is broad spectrum because it does so much for a newborn mammal. As baby mammals, we are all very weak and feeble when they first come into this world. Nature, in response to this, has provided one of the most powerful super foods in existence to boost one into rapid growth, strong resistance to disease and a great sense of well-being.

Another thing to note is how extensively it’s been researched by the medical community. This is not a new discovery — this is something which is being rediscovered. In fact, the medical use of colostrum goes back thousands of years.
