A specific peptide extracted from bovine colostrum (“mothers’ first milk”)
and possessing iron-binding properties. Lactoferrin has been shown to be
involved in iron metabolism and biochemical processes in lymphocytes, as well as
greatly impacting bacterial growth by regulating iron availability in the gut.*
Obtained from the milk of Netherlands range-grazed cattle, raised without the
use of hormones, antibiotics and pesticides with 95% purity and 77.5% to 80.5%
iron-binding capacity.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, 1 to 3 capsules at night
before bed, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.
CAUTION: Lactoferrin may act as an immune stimulant. Research indicates
elevated levels of lactoferrin are present in conditions of lymphocytic leukemia
and pancreatitis, suggesting a potential, but undetermined contraindication.
Individuals with autoimmune or allergic conditions should start with small doses
and consult their healthcare practitioner.
Do not use during pregnancy. The body’s normal production of lactoferrin is
drastically reduced during pregnancy, potentially indicating a lack of need
during that time.
