Colostrum Supplements

About Colostrum Supplements

Colostrum is a pre-milk substance containing high levels of protein and growth factors to assist with muscle growth, cartilage repair and wound healing. Colostrum contains insulin-like growth factors IgF-1 and IgF-2 to assist cell growth and renewal. Supplemental Colostrum may boost the immune system and promote fat-burning and building lean muscle. Additionally, it is believed to also support general gastrointestinal health, supporting healthy digestion and nutrient absorption. 

Many bodybuilders and weightlifters use colostrum powder to support recovery from strenuous training and to promote strength. This effect is believed to occur by enhancing digestion, which often becomes overburdened with the high food intakes required by weightlifters. In addition, the growth factors released by colostrum may enhance recovery and lean muscle growth.
