3 Colostrum Smoothie Recipes That Taste Great
Colostrum Smoothie Recipes
Bovine colostrum is often referred to as a superfood. Produced by cows after giving birth, this milky fluid is packed with nutrients, vitamins, and antibodies to support the immune system of calves in their first few days of life. Bovine colostrum has many health benefits for humans.
• Supports tight junction integrity
• Supports overall intestinal health
• Encourages a healthy immune response
• Promotes healthy aging
• Utilizes liposomal delivery for optimal absorption
Liposomal bovine colostrum supports a balanced healthy immune system and the healthy integrity of the stomach and intestinal lining. Known as the “first food of life,” Colostrum-LD® is ethically sourced from the first milking of healthy Grade A dairy cows that are not supplemented with rBST and are antibiotic-free. The colostrum is collected, then gently pasteurized and dried into a powder.
