• Suitable for both adults and children, offering gentle, natural immune protection.

• Can be easily mixed into water, milk, smoothies, or sprinkled over food.

Ingredients & Nutrition:

• Pure bovine colostrum powder (15-20% IgG) – 100% of the active ingredient for the “pure colostrum” variant.

• Natural flavour (if the specific variant includes it)

• No artificial colours, sweeteners or preservatives.

Potential Benefits:

Based on the product claims + broader research:

1. Immune Support
   Because of its high IgG and other immunoglobulins, colostrum may help strengthen the immune system and increase resistance to infections.

2. Gut & Digestive Health
   Helps support the integrity of the digestive tract, possibly aiding conditions like leaky gut, diarrhea, colitis, Crohn’s disease etc. The growth-factors in colostrum can help repair and maintain gut lining.

3. Tissue Repair & Growth
   The growth factors and immune factors can support healing of tissue, possibly muscle repair, cartilage, etc. Useful during recovery periods.

4. General Well-Being & Nutrition
   Because it’s highly nourishing, some people report better energy, less fatigue, improved vitality. Also, being from pasture-fed sources adds to its quality in terms of nutrition.

Dosage / How to Use:

• Serving size: ~ 1 teaspoon (≈ 3 g) once or twice daily for adults.

• For children (3-12 years): about ½ teaspoon once or twice daily.

• Mix into water, milk or other beverage. Can also be added to food.

• Best taken on an empty stomach or as advised by a healthcare professional. Some sources suggest waiting ~20 minutes before eating/taking other supplements.

Things to Consider / Possible Downsides:

• Dairy Allergy / Lactose Sensitivity: Since it’s derived from cow’s milk, those allergic to dairy or very lactose intolerant should use with caution.

• Source & Processing: Quality depends heavily on how the colostrum is sourced (how soon after birth), how it’s processed (low heat processing helps retain active factors), and purity. Good Health claims low-heat processing and pasture fed sources.

• Not a Substitute for Medical Care: For serious gut diseases, immune disorders, etc., this is a supplement, not treatment. Always good to consult a health professional.

• Cost: Quality colostrum can be pricey. Sometimes increased cost for high IgG content or purity.

• Potential interactions: If taking other immune-modulating supplements or medications, or if pregnant / nursing, better to consult a doctor.
