Colostrum contains a high concentration of biologically active substances including vitamins, minerals, enzymes and amino acids. However, of all the known components in colostrum, the most beneficial components are its immune factors and growth factors. Immune factors strengthen the body’s immune system to fight disease, while growth factors promote cell growth, development and repair.

Hey if it's good enough for baby it's probably good enough for you I'm Thomas DeLauer on behalf of Antler Farms, and today I want to give you the 411 on colostrum. So, colostrum is technically the form of milk that is produced right after a baby is born, but in reality it's not even really a milk, it's more of kind of a clearish yellow liquid that again is produced right after a baby is born. So, the whole purpose of colostrum is to deliver a quick shot of immune support to an infant.

What we found over the last couple of decades is that colostrum is not so much nutritional as it is truly just a powerhouse of immune support and also specific nutrients that are needed to allow tissues to grow. The main goal of colostrum is to reinforce an infant's immune system. Additionally there's also these tissue and growth factors that are included in colostrum that help an infant grow to be big and strong.

Now when it comes down to today's utilization of colostrum for an adult population most of it is derived from bovine colostrum. If you're working out or you're just trying to adopt a healthy lifestyle you do need the immune support, because it's going to help you recover quite a bit better. 70% of the cells that comprise our immune system are located in the gut. It is the main pathway for external matter to enter the body. This matter can be useful substances such as food and water, or damaging substances such as bacteria, viruses and toxins. Most pathogens that invade our bodies do so through the mucosal lining in our gut. So having a healthy gut is the strongest and most practical defense against disease. The regular use of colostrum keeps active antibodies in our gut which consistently combat pathogens that we ingest.

Antler Farms® New Zealand Colostrum is derived from grass fed cows. Because pasture feeding is highly beneficial to the cow’s health, it follows that it greatly increases the quality of the colostrum they produce. Studies confirm that the nutrients in dairy products from grass fed cows are substantially greater than that of grain fed cows.

Additionally, because our cows are exposed to the outdoors without the use of antibiotics, they build a vigorous immune system. The foundation of this immune system is in its varied antibodies, which are then passed along through its colostrum. Ideally, colostrum should be sourced from a large herd (100+) of pasture raised cows and pooled together to increase the diversity of antibodies, thereby increasing its ability to resist disease. This is exactly how Antler Farms® New Zealand Colostrum is made.
