Colostrum
Mother Nature’s Gift For All
 
Colostrum is nature's perfect food. Also called life first food, it is a yellow pre-milk substance secreted from the mammary glands of all female mammals during the first few days after giving birth.
 
Colostrum has a long history of being used as a natural healer. For over 2000 years, Ayurvedic physicians in India have long known the colostrum’s properties, and have used it for both physical and spiritual healing.
 
By the late 18th century, Western medicine started to use colostrum for several purposes, including immune system enhancement and for fighting bacterial infections.
Bovine colostrum was used for immune problems, prior to the discovery of
sulfa drugs and antibiotics in the 20th century.
 
This is because after maturity, we gradually lose the natural immune factors and growth factors in our body. Medical studies in hundreds of published reports worldwide proved that colostrum is possibly the natural supplement known that can deliver the right combination of immune factors and growth factors in a balanced, natural package, and in a form that is bio-available to the human body.
• become more vulnerable to diseases
• energy and enthusiasm lessen
• skin loses its elasticity
• gain unwanted weight and lose muscle tone
Studies have shown that colostrum isn’t only good for newborns: it can also offer great benefit to adults and even the elderly. As we age, we notice it takes us a little longer to fight off a cold or flu.
 
Colostrum is rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids and two primary components namely immune factors and growth factors.

Lactorferrin is an iron-binding protein found on the mucosal surfaces and in the blood serum. It has been shown to play a major role in our body's defense system against diseases and infections. It has the capability to bind iron, antimicrobial activity, anti-fungal, anti-viral and is also an anti oxidant.

Transferrin is found in the mucosa. It is a plasma protein for iron ion delivery, binds and transports iron. It is also associated with the innate immune system. Thus, it can help creating an environment low in free iron, where few bacteria are able to survive.

Proline-Rich Polypeptide (PRP) –PRP is a powerful immunomodulator, meaning it regulates the activity of immune system. PRP stimulates an underactive immune system as well as down-regulate an overactive immune system. PRP can help to fight autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and multiple sclerosis (MS). It also help to reduce inflammation associated with allergies.

PHHP IG-RICH Colostrum
First 12 hours Colostrum

According to many dairy research literatures, cow produces significantly more colostrum than humans, therefore, colostrum collected within the first 12 hours after birth still contains all of the beneficial factors that we value.

High Active IgG Content

IgG (immunoglobulin Type G) content in colostrum is the traditional measurement of quality and effectiveness of colostrum. PHHP IG-RICH Colostrum is processed with low heat spray drying method to ensure the maximum content of active IgG is being preserved in the colostrum. We use Single Radial Immuno Diffusion Method (SRID)
to test and certify the IgG content in colostrum powders.
100% Pure Colostrum

PHHP IG-RICH Colostrum is free from additive or preservative and it is pure colostrum powder.
Low Fat

Lipids (fats) help colostrum disperse and dissolve. But colostrum with its full fat content will become rancid quicker. At PHHP, we select low fat skimmed colostrum for better quality, stability and longer shelf-life.

Low in Lactose
PHHP IG-RICH Colostrum is derived from early milking and is naturally low in lactose. Hence, our colostrum is suitable for lactose intolerants.
Stringent Quality Control
PHHP IG-RICH Colostrum is manufactured in GMP, ISO 9001 & HACCP certified facilities with its production overseen by National Direction of Veterinarian Services and under stringent quality standards, tested by in-house and independent laboratory facilities for quality assurance and safety.
Free from BSE, Pesticides and Antibiotics
Pesticide contamination and antibiotic usage of dairy cattle feed is tightly regulated and strictly monitored by the relevant Government Veterinary Department. Therefore our colostrums are assured of its quality and potency.
