Colostrum Supplement: How you can get benefits of colostrum
Colostrum milk is one of the most vital foods a
newborn can receive from his mother soon after birth. Colostrum is thick,
golden yellowish milk that is secreted by a lactating mammal in the first
days after delivery. One factor that makes colostrum milk priceless to the
newborn is a high concentration of natural antibodies important in
guarding off diseases.
Another factor is the high concentration of ready to
absorb calcium, potassium, proteins, fat-soluble vitamins, minerals and
antibodies.
Baby calves need colostrum
Colostrum milk helps the infant to ward off diseases up
to 4 months old! Baby calves should receive colostrum from their mothers,
particularly within 3-4 hours of birth. If they do not receive the
milk within 8 hours of birth, they can face serious threat of incoming
health problems throughout their adult lives.
Scientific researchers have proven that in humans
too, no particular food is as nutritious and vitalas mothers' colostrum
for babies. Babies who are refrained from breastfeeding soon after birth
may develop serious psychological and physical disorders as they become
adults. The colostrum milk produced in humans is low in fat and high in
carbohydrates, which keeps a baby healthy. Colostrum milk provides baby
with antibodies and disease destroying cells, which help the infant to
fight off diseases. In addition to all this points, the colostrum milk is
super easy to digest making it the perfect first all natural food for
baby.
Colostrum contains natural antibodies
When the breast milk changes from colostrum milk to
normal breast milk, the level of protein, fat, solids, solids-not-fat and
ash dissipates, lactose increases in concentration and colostral
antibodies Igg declines instantly. But due to its undisputed advantages,
many mothers prefer to provide a healthy dose of colostrum milk to their
children from other sources also. In such cases, bovine cow colostrum
would be a very good alternative as the colostrum milk from cows is not
species specific. This also means the composition of bovine colostrum is
amazingly similar to that of human beings.
If the collected colostrum milk is being used in
frozen form, it should be consumed within 24 hours after completely thawed
and liquified. The storage container should be marked with the pass of
time. The powder form is the most effective as it retains the
bio-availability of colostrum nutrients most similar to natural
form.
