Summary

Today we’re going to talk about an extremely powerful natural remedy for inflammation: colostrum.


Colostrum may be beneficial when dealing with certain conditions, such as:

• Inflammation

• Autoimmune diseases

• Gut inflammatory conditions

• Arthritis

• Skin issues related to inflammation


Health benefits of colostrum:

• It helps with gut permeability

• It helps support the immune system

• It may help improve gut damage

• It has been shown to improve muscle growth

• It may help repair the thymus gland

• It has been shown to increase T cells and natural killer cells, which may help prevent cancer and attack viruses

• It increases macrophages, which provide a barrier to protect against pathogens

• It’s high in fat, protein, and immunoglobulins

• It’s very anti-inflammatory

• It helps develop duodenal villi to help prevent malabsorption

• It’s rich in friendly bacteria


Colostrum is the first milk that a mother gives an infant when they’re breastfed. Certain studies have shown a dramatic difference in long-term health between infants given breast milk and those given infant formula.


Colostrum contains many different beneficial nutrients and provides the only natural source of two things:

1. Transforming growth factor alpha-beta

This can greatly help regulate the immune system and support tissue repair.


2. Insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2

This has been found to reverse age-related atrophy of the thymus gland.


Breastfeeding is incredibly important. But, if you’re older, you can still get the benefits of colostrum by taking it as a supplement.


Supplements from goats may be a better choice than from cows, if possible. It’s important to first take colostrum in very small amounts and gradually increase the dose until you reach the dose listed on the bottle.

So today I want to share with you a extremely powerful natural remedy for inflammation.

0:07.1

Not just inflammation, the autoimmune diseases, gut inflammatory conditions, arthritis, skin

0:14.4

conditions related to inflammation.

0:16.4

This is something you probably have never heard before being connected to inflammation.

0:20.8

And if you were

0:21.2

lucky enough to consume this substance as an infant, you probably have already been experiencing

0:26.8

the benefits of this. But for many, they've never had this substance. So unfortunately, they

0:31.8

probably are suffering from some form of inflammation. This substance has some really interesting

0:37.3

benefits for your gut,

0:39.4

especially. We are actually all born with a very permeable intestines where there's actually

0:44.5

holes right into the immune system. So this substance actually seals those junctions to make

0:50.0

them very, very tight. This substance actually can give you your immunity. Yes, it can give

0:55.0

your immunity. There's two types of immunity. You have the one that your mother gave you,

0:59.3

okay, and that's the one we're talking about. And then we also have the other that is acquired

1:04.5

and developed over time by being exposed to pathogens. So this substance can give you passive immunity. In fact, in one study,

1:13.3

which I'll list down below, it showed a 3x improvement over the flu vaccine and in preventing the

1:20.0

flu. In one study, it shows that it can improve the gut damage from insets and damage from

1:26.0

H. Pylori and improved damage from infections that cause diarrhea,

1:30.5

as well as damage from autoimmune conditions. It has been shown to improve muscle growth.

1:37.3

So it's really good for people who have atrophy. And so all of this is very, very amazing,

1:42.4

but it also has the ability to repair your thymus gland.

1:47.9

Okay.
