Bioactive Potency
Bovine colostrum is a potent source of unique bioactive compounds not commonly found in nutrition. Cowboy Colostrum features significantly higher bioactivity due to our first-milking philosophy. Its rich profile includes immunoglobulins, cytokines, lactoferrin, vitamins, minerals and more, contributing to benefits like gut fortification, immune enhancement, energy balance, and pathogen protection. Notably, oligosaccharides offer prebiotic effects and inhibit harmful bacteria; meanwhile, high levels of glycosylated proteins and whey proteins enhance gut microbiome health and support immune modulation and tissue repair.
“Bovine colostrum-derived lactoferrin has antimicrobial activity by inhibiting the growth of disease-causing protozoa, yeasts, bacteria, and viruses, and lactoferrin may prevent the attachment of pathogens to epithelial cells and help maintain intestinal permeability and stability…”
Bridging the gap between traditional practices and contemporary wellness.
Colostrum's Key Players
Colostrum is a natural source of various beneficial components, including vitamins, minerals, proteins, and enzymes.*
Let's take a closer look:
Lactoferrin:
An important protein that promotes the health of the intestinal lining and contributes to immune system functioning.*
Cytokines:
These act as messengers, facilitating communication among immune system cells to ensure their coordinated response.*
Immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA, IgD, IgE, IgM):
These antibodies play a crucial role in modulating the body's immune response.*
Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRPs):
Amino acids that help regulate the immune system and support the production of white blood cells.*
Growth Factors (IGF-I, IGF-II, EGF):
Essential hormones that contribute to the growth and maintenance of tissues in the gastrointestinal tract. Colostrum houses vital growth factors, including TGF-a, TGF-b, IGF-1, and IGF-2. Colostral IGF-1 enhances lean muscle and, when integrated into exercise, orchestrates a metabolic shift from glycolysis to lipid metabolism, optimizing fat catabolism and imparting a nuanced biochemical impact to physical activity.*
Benefits of Daily Use*
Boost immune system*
Colostrum is most well known for its powerful abilities to support the immune system and aid in preventing disease. Packed with antibodies, first line of defense immunoglobulins and immunomodulators which help the body fight off infections, colostrum works to increase the body's response to diseases.*
A true immunity superhero, studies have shown that colostrum helps reduce the risk of gastrointestinal infections, upper respiratory infections and other common illnesses.*
Within colostrum lies the powerful enzyme peroxidase, which acts as a natural eradicator of unwanted organisms residing in the gut. This cleansing process works in harmony with the multifunctional lactoferrin, whose primary goal is to neutralize specific strains of harmful bacteria, further fortifying the body's immune system.*
In our modern world, where our immune systems can be weakened by various factors, colostrum serves as a vital tool to restore and strengthen our body's natural defenses. By incorporating colostrum into your daily routine, you empower your immune system to combat the challenges of our environment, helping to maintain optimal health and well-being.
