Health Products - Colostrum
By Leanne James
Your Second Chance!
Sometimes it appears that the odds are stacked against us. We
contaminate our soil, water and air with toxins which in turn
invade our body and disturb its natural state of health. We try
to eat right and get enough exercise, but life's fast pace and
demands often mean we eat fatty fast food, get little or no
exercise and pile on the stress. On top of all that some of us
are born with genes that predispose us to less than optimal
health.
But nature has offered us another chance to restore our health
and to create a healthy internal environment that continually
promotes it. Colostrum provides
that chance.
Colostrum's primary task is to go where it will do the most
good - the immune system - and get it functioning properly.
Colostrum is able to act as an insurance policy against disease
and a treatment for the immune system and your health.
Leaky gut syndrome
The most convincing proof of the link between gastrointestinal
health and overall health is the existence of leaky gut
syndrome. Leaky gut syndrome or intestinal permeability is a
condition in which the intestinal lining is more permeable than
normal, which means there are unusually large pores or spaces
between the cells that make up the intestinal wall. This
additional space allows toxic substances such as bacteria,
viruses, parasites and other harmful factors to enter the
bloodstream and reach every part of the body. In a healthy gut,
these toxins are eliminated. Undigested fats and proteins can
escape into the intestinal wall, resulting in allergic
responses by the body. Symptoms that often accompany leaky gut
are intestinal cramps, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue,
bloating and gas. Leaky gut can also cause malabsorption of
minerals.
The colostrums solution
 Bovine colostrum is the ideal solution for this health problem.
Because colostrums reaches the gut while its components are
still viable, its immunoglobulins and other factors can attack
the offending pathogens in the intestines and prevent them from
causing damage. The growth factors have anti-inflammatory
action and also help repair damaged cells in the gut lining,
decreasing cellular spacing and thus preventing further
leakage. The immunoglobulins in bovine colostrums provide
unique protection against disease-causing bacteria and
viruses.
Unless the gut is healed, the body will not begin to repair the
damage that began with the permeable gut. As healing begins,
the amount of toxins dumped into the bloodstream from the gut
will decline. Nutritional uptake will improve, organ function
will improve and energy levels will rise.
For optimum results, treatment with colostrums should always be
accompanied by a nutrient rich diet that eliminates sugar,
white flour products, high fat foods, caffeine, alcohol and
grains that contain gluten (wheat, barley and rye).
