Bovine Colostrum is a milky fluid that comes from the cow’s udders the few days after giving birth, before actual milk appears. It typically has a light yellow colour and a subtle taste and smell that resembles buttermilk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONSTITUENTS OF BOVINE COLOSTRUM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bovine Colostrum contains similar nutrients to mature bovine milk but macronutrient profile and growth factors, immunoglobulins and other immune factor content differs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Proteins and peptides = It contains higher total protein content than mature milk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Carbohydrates = It contains lactose, oligosaccharides, glycolipids, glycoproteins and nucleotide sugars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Fats and lipids = Bovine Colostrum contains approximately 7 % fat, predominantly comprising milk fat globules. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Vitamins and Minerals = It contains fat soluble vitamins like A, D, E and water soluble vitamins like B. It is also rich in minerals like calcium, copper, iron, zinc, magnesium, manganese and phosphorus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Bioactive components = It contains bioactive components like immunoglobulins, antimicrobials like lactoperoxidase, lysozyme, lactoferrin, cytokines, immune regulators like B and T lymphocytes, macrophages and neutrophils, growth factors, hormones like prolactin, somatostatin, oxytocin, LH, TSH, thyroxine, calcitonin, oestrogen, progesterone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW BOVINE COLOSTRUM DIFFERENT FROM NORMAL MILK ?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is different from normal milk as it contains less lactose and more fat, protein, peptides, non-protein nitrogen, ash, vitamins and minerals, hormones, growth factors, cytokines and nucleotides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF BOVINE COLOSTRUM<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. It boosts immunity, digestive and hormonal system.<\/li>
  2. It improves physical performance.<\/li>
  3. It may boost immunity because of higher amounts of antibodies, IgA and IgG.<\/li>
  4. It may prevent and treat diarrhoea. It contains variety of antibodies and protein lactoferrin that help prevent diarrhoea associated with bacterial and viral infections.<\/li>
  5. It benefits gut health. It strengthens gut by fighting infections in digestive tract.<\/li>
  6. Topical colostrum application has proven benefits for open wound healing.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Bovine Supplements and powders are available easily in the market but are very expensive. It will be great if you get fresh bovine colostrum from cattle farms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
