Dieting Aids Immune Sys.
Colostrum is the clear liquid that a mammal produces before their breast milk comes in.
It is the first food the cow produces upon the birth of a calf and flows for approximately 48 hours, during which time its contents gradually change from colostrum to milk. Therefore it must have colostrum to kick start its immune system. Because of this post partum, external delivery system, the contents of colostrum are extremely concentrated. In fact, colostrum contains at least 10-20 times more immune and other relevant health boosting factors than found in human colostrum. Collecting colostrum from pasture fed cows is important because the cows are developing natural immunity to a wider range of viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens than cows that are fed processed feed.
