Colostrum and fat people
There's substance that's contained in Colostrum
called IGF-1. This substance helps our bodies to metabolize fat. As we
grow older our bodies produce less IGF-1, this increase the risk of older
people to suffer from Diabetes Type-2 and also increase difficulty to lose
weight, because our bodies cannot burn fat well unless you do exercises
and diet carefully.
According to medical research, If our bodies contain
less IGF-1 during fasting (diet) period, they will burn muscle protein
first before burning fat (catabolism). I'm sure you don't want that to
happen, because you don't gain your muscle in just several hours, it takes
months, especially for those body builders.
When growth hormone levels rise, IGF rises as well,
so it's ready to mediate the effects growth hormone has on cell function.
The two are somewhat interdependent: growth hormone needs IGF in order to
affect cells, and IGF responds to growth hormone.
But unlike growth hormone, IGF can stimulate cell
growth by itself. Muscle cells are one type it helps to produce. IGF also
helps move amino acids, the building blocks of protein, into muscle cells,
and it stimulates protein synthesis while it prevents protein from
breaking down.
Colostrum contains the only natural source of IGF-1.
Supplementing your exercise regime with colostrum can help to burn fat and
build lean muscle mass. Remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so
while you may not notice a change on the scale, you will see the
difference in the way your clothes fit!
In addition to burn fat, IGF stands for Insulin Like
Growth Factor. This primary growth factor found in colostrum, may promote
protein synthesis, help with glucose uptake and stop the breakdown of
protein during and after intense exercise. That's why it can also help in
stabilizing blood sugar level.
Colostrum is the very first milk produced by a mother
after she gives birth. Although devotees of natural health think of
colostrum as a food produced by cows, human mothers also produce this
extraordinarily nutritious food. In calves (which are easier to research
than babies), colostrum provides not just protein but beta-carotene, the
eight components of vitamin E, and other antioxidants that "jump start"
the calf's immune system and increase survival.
Cow's milk, however, is not the best substitute for
human milk. Most scientific research supports the notion that donkey's
milk is.
Donkey's milk is very similar to (human) mother's
milk in its content of lactose, proteins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty
acids, and in its immune-stimulant properties. Of all commercially
available milk products, donkey milk is lowest in fat. Donkeys do not
carry the diseases of cows. Donkey colostrum has an additional property of
causing red blood cells to release the chemical nitric oxide, or
NO.
NO dilates arteries, opening them to greater
circulation, compensating for any hardening of the arteries. And donkey
milk has even greater power to cause the release NO than donkey
colostrum.
No kind of colostrum actually lowers cholesterol, but
the release of NO accomplishes the desired result. Bovine colostrum has
this effect in cows, but donkey colostrum, and, better, donkey milk has
this effect in humans.
One word of caution: donkey milk generates more of
the desired nitric oxide than donkey colostrum. Until donkey milk is
commercially available in the United States and Canada as it is in Europe,
however, bovine colostrum in powder form is the best available
choice.
