Colostrum Powder

Colostrum is packed with immune-enhancing elements that play a crucial role in respiratory health. It contains high levels of Immunoglobulins (IgG), antibodies that help neutralize pathogens like bacteria and viruses, especially on the respiratory tract's mucosal surfaces. Lactoferrin, another key protein, has antimicrobial and antiviral properties, inhibiting pathogens by binding to iron. Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRPs) modulate immune response, either boosting it during infections or suppressing it when overactive. Additionally, colostrum’s anti-inflammatory properties reduce swelling and congestion, while strengthening mucosal immunity by supporting secretory IgA production, enhancing mucosal defences against harmful pathogens effectively.

Q; How does colostrum powder support immune function in the upper respiratory tract?
A:

Immunoglobulins (IgG): Colostrum is high in antibodies, particularly IgG, which can help neutralize pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. This is particularly important for the mucosal surfaces of the respiratory tract, as it helps prevent infections. 

Lactoferrin: This protein has potent antimicrobial and antiviral properties. It binds to iron, which many pathogens need for survival, thereby limiting their ability to grow. Lactoferrin also directly inhibits viruses like influenza and other respiratory pathogens. 

Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRPs): PRPs can modulate the immune system, either enhancing it when needed (e.g., during infection) or suppressing it in cases of overactivation (e.g., autoimmune responses). This helps maintain a balanced immune response in the respiratory tract, preventing both infections and inflammation. 

Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Colostrum has anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce symptoms like swelling, congestion, and tissue damage in the respiratory tract caused by infections or allergies. 

Support of Mucosal Immunity: The immune components in colostrum enhance mucosal immunity by strengthening the barrier function of mucosal linings and promoting the production of secretory IgA, an antibody that plays a crucial role in defending mucosal surfaces against pathogens.
