Colostrum is collected from dairy cattle and is prized as a concentrated source of immune-enhancing compounds, growth factors, proteins and enzymes. Research has shown that the immune and growth factors in bovine colostrum are nearly identical to those in human colostrum.
Bodybuilders and athletes use colostrum to support overall health and immune function during periods of heavy training and stress. It may also help to balance blood sugar, build lean muscle, burn fat and increase stamina.*
