Colostrum's Growth Factors-Not Just for Newborns
Colostrum
contains many important growth factors which promote healing and actually
create an anti-aging response. Independent medical studies show that
colostrum's growth factors: 1) Regenerate and accelerate normal growth
of aged or injured muscle, bone, cartilage, skin collagen and nerve tissue;
2) Help burn fat for fuel instead of muscle tissue; 3) Help build and
retain lean muscle; 4) Repair the body's vital DNA and RNA; 5) Balance
and regulate blood sugar levels; 6) Heal burns, surgeries, cuts, abrasions,
ear infections and mouth sores with topical application; 7) Control infection
and pain associated with gingivitis and sensitive teeth; 8) Stop leaky gut
syndrome; 9) Balances brain chemical levels.
Colostrum and the Immune System
Colostrum contains immuno-regulatory factors (Immunoglobulins, Lactoferrin, Cytokines and Interferon) as well as PRP (Polyproline-Rich-Peptides), which enhance the immune reaction when it is too low and suppress it when it is too high. This is important during those times when the immune system is extremely depressed, as in severe bacterial, viral, fungal infections, poor diet, vaccinations and is also true in cases where the immune response is generally excessive in inflammation and destruction as in rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, allergies etc.
Allergies that can often
be alleviated by giving Colostrum are: watery eyes, runny nose, sinus
stuffiness, asthma, hives, eczema, hot spots, rashes, high blood pressure,
abnormal fatigue, abnormal hunger, stomach cramps, vomiting, nxiety,
depression, aggressiveness, constipation, hyperactivity, wheezing, etc.
Susceptibility to an allergen depends on heredity
and the condition of one's immune system. Stress and adrenal exhaustion,
poor diet, deficiency of vitamins B and C, poor elimination, emotional
trauma, infections and vaccinations can weaken the immune system making
one more susceptible to an allergic reaction.
Infants, puppies and kittens who are breast-fed
have a lower frequency of allergic, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases
and lymphomas, not only during nursing, but in their later life as well.
Bacterial and Viral Protection from Colostrum
Most infectious microorganisms
enter the body through the mouth and are swallowed. How well we know
with children, cats and dogs. Everything goes in the mouth! Whether or
not one can defend themselves against these invaders which surround all
of us depends on the health of the immune system. Normally the immune
system is able to properly fight these off. Some people and animals are
not so lucky. It seems they catch every bacterium, virus and fungus that
comes their way.
MDs and DVMs have gotten into the unforgivable habit of prescribing antibiotics for everything that enters the office. Between 80-90 percent of these ailments are caused by viral infections and an antibiotic is not going to do any good. Antibiotics are also responsible for creating new and unusual challenges for the immune system.
Antibiotics, vaccines and other drugs disrupt the normal harmonious relationship in the body. Colostrum offers safe viral and bacterial protection. Dozens of scientific papers suggest that colostrum can block or reduce the severity of a wide variety of infections including many of which have their initiation in the oral/fecal route. Colostrum is effective against a number of microorganisms including E coli, streptococcus, salmonella, bordetella, respiratory viruses, yeasts such as candida, to name a few. Colostrum can be used as a safe, effective alternative to antibiotics, steroids and vaccines.
Colostrum and Weight Loss
Colostrum contains IGF-1,
the most powerful growth factor in the body. Medical research has shown
that without adequate amounts of IGF-1, the body, during times of fasting
or dieting, will burn muscle protein before they burn fat (catabolism).
The only means to increase IGF-1 levels in the body is through daily aerobic
exercise or colostrum (preferably both). The IGR-1 and other growth factors
in colostrum help burn fat and build lean muscle mass.
How To Take Colostrum
Colostrum works best on an empty stomach. Do not take any other supplements at the same time that you take colostrum and wait at least twenty minutes before eating. It has a pleasant taste (similar to skim milk) so the powder can be mixed with a little water and your animal will often lick it up; if not, give with a syringe or mix the colostrum in a little butter, just enough to get them to take it.
Each animal is unique with regard to the amount of colostrum they need. Start with the suggested use on the bottle label.
Colostrum can be consumed in any quantity without side effects or drug interactions. Because colostrum helps heal the bowel, this means you are better utilizing the nutrients from the food you and your animals eat and the supplements and medications that are taken. This can reduce or even eliminate the need for many additional supplements and medications. Animals who are lactose-intolerant should have no problems with high quality colostrum because it is a food and not a milk.
PMK 100% bovine Colostrum is produced from healthy, nutritionally-supplemented cows raised in America's Heartland on USDA and FDA certified dairy farms. These free-range cattle are, in addition, carefully fed a scientifically-designed diet that contains the proper balance of legumes and grasses along with minerals to ensure a consistently high potency colostrum. Our Colostrum is superior because calves that are born in the winter months in the northern United States must survive bitter sub-zero temperatures, the cold northwest winds and the damp, moist conditions in the barn in their first days of life. The colostrum produced by their vigorous mothers must be the richest in immunoglobulins and other important immune and growth factors in order for their newborn to survive.
We leave the fat in our Colostrum which is extremely important for the effectiveness of colostrum. Many companies are taking out the fat because they want to present a "fat free" product according to the present trends. Fat, especially from such a pure source, is necessary for our bodies as well as our dogs and cats.
PMK Colostrum comes in: 2.25oz powder: 16.95 ~ 4oz Powder: 22.95
