Bovine colostrum is a hot ingredient, correct?

Laboratory of Colostrum Research
Yes it is. Colostrum is only produced during the first two days of lactation. The infant??s intestinal tract allows for the passage of large molecules that function as immunoglobulins, such as proteins, to fight infections. Since the infant was just thrust into a world full of hostility with bacteria and viruses ready to attack, nature devised this system where bioactive components from the mother are passed on to the infant.

Colostrum FAQ
Many customers have called us, concerned about the treatment of the calves and cows after birth.

Then, as soon as possible, the mother is bred again. In truth, the abuse described creates more waste than profit and reputable dairies do not employ such tactics.

High quality forage produces the very best milk. Note that the pastures here are not fertilized with sludge or any chemical fertilizer. While being milked, the cows eat a little all natural grain supplement made from barley and oats (16% protein). They also receive mineral supplement free choice (available at all times).
