Balance Defense Colostrum Powder

Bovine colostrum, often called "liquid gold" for its rich yellow color from high beta-carotene content, is the early milk produced by cows just after giving birth. It's thicker than regular milk and loaded with nutrients that boost the immune system and support a healthy gut. Like calves, who need colostrum to kickstart their immune systems, our products harness these benefits to support your health.

Colostrum is the initial milk produced within the first few days post-birth, packed with essential nutrients and antibodies needed for early development. It transitions to a slightly lighter transitional milk before becoming the regular white cow's milk, which is richer in everyday nutrients like calcium and vitamin D.

Bovine colostrum is less lactose-rich than human colostrum and contains a broader range of immunoglobulins like IgA, IgG, and IgE. It's especially rich in antibodies, containing up to 40 times more than human colostrum, making it a potent supporter of immune health.

Colostrum is a superfood for the gut, helping to address issues like bloating, skin problems, and disrupted sleep by strengthening the body’s protective barriers and enhancing immune system function. Its growth factors also promote cellular repair and regeneration, contributing to youthful skin and vitality.

Absolutely! Colostrum can significantly boost a child’s immune system and overall health, suitable for children aged 1 year and older. Please consult with a healthcare provider for children under one or those with dairy allergies or severe lactose intolerance.

Colostrum powder is rich in bioactive nutrients and immune factors that play a key role in modulating and supporting the immune system. For those managing autoimmune diseases, it offers several benefits: Colostrum contains immunoglobulins and proline-rich polypeptides (PRPs), which help regulate the immune system’s response. This can be crucial in preventing the immune system from attacking its own tissues, a common issue in autoimmune conditions.

Additionally, the growth factors in colostrum support the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues, helping alleviate symptoms like inflammation and promoting overall cellular health. By strengthening gut health and enhancing the mucosal barrier, colostrum also helps reduce systemic inflammation and can improve nutrient absorption, which is often compromised in autoimmune diseases. This holistic approach aids in managing symptoms and contributes to a balanced immune response, potentially reducing the frequency and severity of autoimmune flare-ups.

Yes, colostrum powder is a dairy product. While it generally contains low levels of lactose, those with milk allergies or severe lactose intolerance should avoid it or consider a lactose enzyme supplement to aid digestion.

Colostrum can typically be taken with other supplements or medications, but we always recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to address any specific concerns or conditions.

Mix our Balance Defense Colostrum Powder into a cool or room temperature beverage like a smoothie, juice, or water. Avoid hot beverages to preserve the bioactive nutrients.

For children, one scoop is suggested, while adults may take two scoops daily. If recovering or feeling unwell, an additional scoop or two can help boost the immune response.

There are no known risks associated with taking colostrum powder during pregnancy or breastfeeding, but it's best to consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplements.
