Bovine colostrum is a milky liquid which is produced by cows during the first few days after giving birth and before true milk appears. This fluid is different than true milk and is richer in nutrients, growth factors, and immune boosting compounds known as immunoglobulins. Colostrum supplements are taken for a variety of benefits including supporting digestive and immune health, promoting cognitive function, and promoting bone health. Double Wood’s bovine colostrum supplement uses colostrum only obtained from the first post-calf milking and is standardized to 15% immunoglobulins. Only grass-fed cow colostrum is used in this product as well.
