Benefits of Colostrum

I’ve been using colostrum intermittently ever since I met Daniel Vitalis at the Bulletproof Conference a few years ago. It massively helps with allergies and immunity. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This is a type of milk produced by cows (oh and humans), a few days after giving birth. We do like Daniel’s brand Surthrival and have had great success using it. But it's quite hard to get here in the UK, and @jarrowformulas is a good second best. ⁣

DISCLAIMER: Always check with your doctor or health practitioner before starting any treatment program. ⁣This is not advice, it is intended for information and discussion only.

Just to be clear – this is cow colostrum not human colostrum, and you always want to use an organic brand where the newborn have their share of the milk before the supplement is made.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Why is it so good? ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Colostrum is rich in antibodies. ⁣⁣
These antibodies help to boost an individual’s immune system (important at the moment, especially for histamine intolerance sufferers).⁣⁣
It helps with inflammation.⁣⁣
And lots more.⁣⁣
Also – fun fact, try taking this as you feel a cold coming on, it definitely helps ward it off.
