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.

Warning for Laktoferrin w/Colostrum
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.
