Description
Clinical Applications
- Provides Concentrated Immunoglobulins to Enhance Mucosal Immunity
- Stimulates the Body’s Normal Gut Repair Mechanisms
- Helps Maintain Microbial Balance
Traditionally, colostrum is considered the “first food” of newborns because it is easily digestible and enhances the immune system. An optimally functioning immune system prevents unwanted toxins and molecules from disturbing the body’s natural homeostasis. Colostrum naturally includes immune factors, amino acids, nucleotides and growth factors which provide several benefits to human immune health by functioning against microorganisms. There are five main immunoglobulins, but the most common is IgG, which accounts for 75-80% of all serum antibodies in the body. IgG plays a major role in immune system function, as it defends the body against foreign substances.
IgG Protect Powder’s pure and high-concentration formula provides improved immune modulation and strengthens the gut-immune barrier. Consistency in potency and purity of colostrum extracts is a primary concern for clinicians; advanced filtration and purification techniques make IgG Protect Powder a superior clinical tool. IgG Protect Powder provides 2,000 mg of IgG and 4 g of protein per serving.
Benefits
Broad-Range Specificity Immunoglobulins
Research has shown that IgG can be effective in neutralizing microorganisms found in the gastrointestinal tract. Colostrum not only includes high quantities of IgG, but also several factors that may positively impact the immune system. Many studies note the use of bovine colostrum to enhance passive immunity to prevent immune challenges, especially when entering by way of the gastrointestinal tract.
Lactoferrin
Lactoferrin, which is naturally occurring in IgG Protect Powder, is an iron-binding glycoprotein, that facilitates iron absorption. Lactoferrin modulates cytokine release, and its receptors have been found on many immune cells, including lymphocytes, monocytes, macrophages and platelets.
