We hear everyday about how good is Colostrum for our health and how wise it is to use it in our diet in order to protect our immune system. But we never truly know what the components of this "first milk" are, and how they work for our body. Besides the antibodies and immunoglobulins, Colostrum has so many other helpful components which you will find out about here: - Proline- Rich Polypeptides - also called Colostrinin, regulates the Thymus. It balances overactive or under active immune system. Effective in reducing the symptoms of Alzheimer's, improves memory and cognition Comprised of over 120 protein peptides that regulate immune function, activates Natural Killer cell activity, active passive and active immune response, blocks bacterial and viral reproduction, colonization and cellular access; - Immunoglobulins: IgGIgE, IgA, IgM, Secretory IgE, A and M and IgA specific helper; - B lymphocytes which give rise to antibodies targeted against specific disease causing microbes; - Macrophages which kill disease causing pathogens outright in the gut, produces lysozyme and activates other components of the immune system; - Neutrophils: act as phagocytes, ingesting bacteria in the digestive system and mucosal surfaces; - Protein: it reduces the amount of Vitamin B12 which bacteria need to grow and transports B12 into the body. This is a critical vitamin for overall health that is produced by beneficial bacteria; - Bifidus factor: promotes growth of lactobacillus bifidus, beneficial bacteria. Fatty Acids: Disrupts membranes surrounding virus and destroys them; - Fibrinactin which increases antimicrobial activity of macrophages and helps repair tissues that have been damaged; also immune reactions in digestive system. - Gamma- Interferon: enhances antimicrobial activity of immune cells; - Insulin like Growth factors 1 and 2: cellular replication and growth of all our body's tissue. Builds lean muscle, increases strength and stamina, bone growth and the repair from damage etc. Transforming Growth factors A and B. Fibroblast growth factor. Gonadatropin Releasing Hormone. Epithelial Growth Hormone. Epidermal Growth Hormone. These last two and IgF-1 stimulate the intestinal lining (skin and mucal surface) to heal and Prevents and heals damage to our intestinal walls to help prevent the onset of auto-immune disease and infections form entering our body; - Lactoferrin: destroys pathogens on contact; viruses, protozoa, bacteria, yeast and fungi.Blocks pathogenic pathway needed for cellular penetration. Activates Natural Killer (NK) cell activity; activates T cell production and targets activity. Binds to iron, a mineral most harmful bacteria like E Coli need to reproduce and infect. Transports needed iron to hemoglobin in blood; - Interleukin 10: powerful inflammation inhibitor.Reduces Inflammation in Arthritic joints and infected or injury areas; - Lactoperoxidase: Lactoperoxidase-thiocyate, peroxidase and Xanthene Oxidase Enzymes. They oxidize bacteria by generating a release of hydrogen peroxide. - Lysozyme: kills bacteria by disrupting their cell walls; - Mucins: adhere to bacteria and viruses, keeping them from attaching to mucus surfaces; - Oligosaccharides: bind to micro organisms and bar them form attaching to mucosal surfaces; - Glycoproteins and Tripsin Inhibitors: keep the immune factors in Colostrum from being digested during passage through stomach and beginning area of small intestine. Prevent the bacteria that cause ulcers from attaching and infecting the stomach lining; - Leukocytes: stimulate the production of interferon: slows viral reproduction and inhibits their penetration of cellular wall; - Lymphokines: hormone-like peptides that mediate immune response. - Orotic Acid: Cell and immune mediator - prevents anemia; - Albumin;
- Lactalbumin;
- B Lacto globulin;
- Prealbumin;
- Alpha 1-Antiripsin Alpha 1-fetoprotein;
- Alpha 2-Macroglobulin;
- Haemopexin;
- Haptoglobin;
- Beta 2 Microglobulin;
- Alpha 2-AP Glycoprotein;
- C3 and C4;
- Orosomucoids.
