Why Do I Need Colostrum As An Adult?
Research has shown that once we pass puberty,
our bodies gradually produce less of the immune
and growth factors that help our bodies fight off
disease and heal damaged body tissue. With the loss
of these vital components, we age and die.
We become more vulnerable to disease, our energy
level and enthusiasm lessens, our skin loses its
elasticity, and we gain unwanted weight and lose
muscle tone. Colostrum offers the broadest possible
spectrum of biologically active substances that promotes
the development of a sound body.
It supports an effective and efficient metabolism and
supports the activation and maintenance of a fully
functional immune system capable of combating
potential insults from microorganisms and other
harmful sources. This health problem is further
compounded because we live in a toxic environment,
with pollutants and allergens all around us.
Colostrum is the only source of these life-giving
components ...the actual immune factors and
all of our body's growth factors (anti-aging factors)
in perfect combination as nature intended. *Studies
have revealed the importance of Colostrum in our
society. During the fifties and sixties, many doctors
recommended against breastfeeding.
Thus, many babies during this period never got the
natural initial boost to immune and digestive systems
that Colostrum provides. The studies show adults that
were not breastfed as children experienced some of the
following difficulties, high blood pressure, high
cholesterol levels, immune deficiencies, and a higher
propensity to disease; moreover, adults that were
breastfed as children, had lower susceptibility to many
autoimmune related diseases.
Research has shown that Colostrum has powerful natural
growth and immune factors that bring the body to a state
of homeostasis (the body’s powerful, vital natural state
of health and well being). Colostrum helps support a
healthy immune system; it also enables us to resist the
harmful effects of pollutants, contaminants and allergens.
In addition, the growth factors in Colostrum help create
many of the positive "side-effects" of a healthy organism
such as an enhanced ability to metabolize or "burn" fat,
greater ease in building lean muscle mass, and
enhanced rejuvenation of skin, muscle and organs.
