Colostrum Description

Colostrum - Colostrum is sometimes referred to as "mother's milk" because it is derived from a substance that later becomes normal cow's milk. Colostrum is taken just after, or within a few hours, of the cow having given birth. Specifically, the cow will produce a thick yellow substance at the udder that is extremely rich in nutrients for the newborn calf. For the calf, Colostrum is a complete food full of protein, carbohydrates, fat and vitamins. Bovine Colostrum also contains the beneficial glyco-proteins and protease inhibitors that have medicinal properties. Colostrum is believed to be a booster to the human immune system. Colostrum is also widely used to promote growth. It is also vended for those who are looking for a substance with fat burning properties, owing to the growth factors present.
