If it wasn't for colostrum, humankind on our planet could have very well been a whisper in the universe. For millennia, especially prior to the rise of modern medicine, the mammalian kingdom (including humans) faithfully depended on mother's colostrum to support their healthy immune systems, specifically for newborns emerging from the sterile environment of the womb.
The origins of fresh bovine colostrum (BC) use go back thousands of years, all the way to the domestication of the ancient cow. More recently, bovine colostrum and many of its specific ingredients have been studied in peer-reviewed research for their potential role in GI, immune, physical, and skin health.† Essential to BC is a phospholipid coating (liposomal delivery) which protects the delicate, natural bioactives after the raw colostrum has been flash pasteurized and minimally processed. BC contains over 200 natural bioactive components, including broad spectrum immunoglobulins, growth factors, proline-rich polypeptides, lactoferrin, lysozyme, and more.† These are studied for their potential role in supporting immune health and overall wellness.†
Bovine Colostrum – A Foundational Food
There is no substitute for a whole food product. Why? No matter how clever we are at isolating singular mechanisms of action, identifying one gene, or targeting a specific micro-organism, Mother Nature is much smarter. With whole foods—ideally organic and as fresh as possible—nature provides dozens of key nurturing ingredients in perfect proportions and combinations for the body to use as it needs.†
Pro Colostrum-LD® is a foundational food that contains living bioactives for people of any age.† Colostrum's immunoglobulins, antibodies, lactoferrin, polypeptides, growth factors and other health-enhancing bioactive nutrients help support a healthy immune system.† The synergistic effect of bovine colostrum components with liposomal delivery makes our Pro Colostrum-LD® a powerful superfood.
A proprietary liposomal delivery (LD) system has made Pro Colostrum-LD® a leading choice among healthcare professionals. The LD system aids colostrum's bioactive components in gaining their best chance of absorption into the gastrointestinal tract.
Many providers consider Pro Colostrum-LD® a useful addition to a patient's daily regimen.† Increased intestinal permeability is one factor providers may want to consider when evaluating a range of patient concerns.

How does Bovine Colostrum Work?
How long does it take for bovine colostrum to work?
Individual experiences vary. Some GastroDefense patients report noticing a difference within the first few weeks of regular use, though timing differs from person to person and isn't guaranteed.†
Pro Colostrum-LD® is typically taken on an empty stomach, in either powder or capsule form. Generally, the powder is mixed with 6 to 8 oz. of water.
