Mode of Action
Lactating animals produce Colostrum, for the first few days immediately following parturition. It provides to the newborn a raft of special nutrients derived from the mother and includes special growth factors, (IgF1 and IgF2), unique proteins and immune enhancing substances including Immunoglobulin G (IgG) together with a range of di, tri and macro peptides needed to stimulate hormone development and promote growth.
Originally, Colostrum was thought to benefit only the newborn. This is because at birth, the human digestive system is not fully competent, and the large macromolecules that make up Colostrum can be absorbed through the still-developing gut wall.
Subsequent research has confirmed however, that children and adults can benefit from its unique nutritional profile and absorb the special growth factors and immunoglobulins, needed for immunity and growth.
The action of Colostrum in older children and adults however, is principally related to it beneficial effects on the digestive system in promoting the health of the gut, and preventing infections that enter the body through this channel. By aiding the absorption of other nutrients, Colostrum also improves general health and can reduce the potentially harmful effect of stress.
Special Benefits
Balance Colostrum is processed using a low-heat process to ensure the sensitive immunoglobulins and bioactive proteins are preserved. Every batch is extensively tested under the strictest quality control procedures.
