Colostrum can be stored by freezing in milk cartons or plastic containers. The containers can be easily thawed and mixed with warm water for feeding. Studies have shown rapid defrosting using boiling temperatures destroys a portion of the antibodies. A warm water bath will ensure that antibodies are intact. Consult your veterinarian on the use of these supplements or replacers. Use a 1 gallon Ziploc freezer bag. Fill half full 2 qts.

JAP ; Considering the safety profile and generally positive past research from well-controlled studies, further research is warranted to understand the underlying mechanism and explain inter-individual variations and unexplored discrepancies between the growing number of studies on colostrum supplementation in regards to body composition and athletic performance.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs are the most common prescribed medicine and used for the symptomatic treatment of acute pain, chronic inflammatory, and degenerative joint diseases , NSAIDs can cause gastric and intestinal damage such as peptic ulceration and injury to both the small and large intestine.
Complications from NSAIDs use include increased intestinal permeability with protein and blood loss, and also stricture formation , Acid suppressants and prostaglandin analogs are used to reduce gastric injury induced by NSAIDs, but these are not adequately effective in preventing small intestine injury.
Hence, additional avenues for the mitigation of these negative side effects are needed. These growth factors are capable of stimulating the repair process of the GI tract and are complementary to evidence supporting diminished GI permeability associated with exercise In a clinical examination of bovine colostrum for protection against NSAID-induced enteropathy, seven male volunteers 26—38 years old who were taking NSAIDs or suffering from conditions likely to affect intestinal permeability e.
In this crossover study, following an initial baseline permeability assessment, these volunteers were supplemented orally with mL of bovine colostrum or a whey placebo three times daily for seven days. Approximately a 3-fold increase in permeability was observed in the participants taking the whey placebo with indomethacin, while no significant increase in permeability was seen in the participants taking co-administration of bovine colostrum with indomethacin In support of these findings, molecular characterization of the mechanism underlying these effects have been documented.
Mir et al. While further studies will be required to demonstrate that these compounds, when co-administered with bovine colostrum, maintain their desired efficacy, there is growing and consistent evidence supporting the potential for the use of bovine colostrum to manage the potential side effects of NSAIDs.
Bovine colostrum has led to human supplementation trials due to potential for improvement of GI health and integrity. Several conditions related to GI conditions associated with chronic or acute infections have been investigated for the potential of bovine colostrum to ameliorate symptoms associated with these conditions or infections.
While the mechanisms behind these findings are difficult to disentangle given the disparate populations and disease etiologies, there are consistent themes related to the improvement of GI symptoms and reduced inflammation associated with each, though not all conditions demonstrate promising avenues for therapy. Ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease associated with durable inflammation and ulcers in the colon , was investigated as a potential target for a bovine colostrum enema treatment in a small proof-of-concept trial.
The authors rationalized this approach given the high concentrations of antimicrobial peptides, immunoglobulins and growth factors found in colostrum In this pilot study, fourteen patients with active mild to moderate colitis were compared.
While this study is small, the findings show a significant reduction in symptom scores and follow up studies in a similar population with a larger sample size may be warranted. Necrotizing enterocolisis NEC is one of the most common morbidities associated with preterm birth, and among the chief causes of mortality among infants born preterm Several studies have examined the impact of either human or bovine-derived colostrum on NEC outcomes and development of preterm infants.
In one clinical trial of 86 low birthweight infants supplemented with bovine colostrum in a dose of 2 g, four times per day for infants between 1, and 1, g and 1. No significant differences were observed in the occurrence of NEC, sepsis, or mortality after the administration of bovine colostrum as compared with placebo In a meta-analysis examining the use of bovine and human colostrum among preterm infants, Sadeghirad et al.
The lack of effects is observed on NEC patients due to some limitations such as using commercial bovine colostrum supplement and number of patients is modest , Given these findings, it will be difficult to rationalize continued use of bovine or human colostrum with preterm infants for improvements in these outcomes.
However, the use of human colostrum in preterm infants should not be curtailed based on these outcomes as other benefits have been demonstrated for preterm infants Acute infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli ETEC represents the most common causes of so-called Traveler's Diarrhea, associated with travel to tropic and semitropical regions throughout the world As bovine colostrum plays a key role in protecting the neonatal calf from environmental pathogens via passive immunity and ETEC represents one of the primary causative agents of neonatal calf diarrhea , researchers have been interested in determining whether the same effects can be demonstrated in humans at risk of Traveler's Diarrhea.
Using hyperimmune bovine colostrum which is rich in immunoglobulins targeting 14 strains of ETEC, the efficacy and dose response of consuming bovine colostrum in a tablet form mg of bovine colostrum protein demonstrated a dose-dependent and significant improvement in protecting against the development of diarrhea among volunteers in a double blinded, placebo-controlled ETEC challenge study. A mg serving of hyperimmune bovine colostrum protein administered with a bicarbonate buffer three times daily conferred Bicarbonate buffer contributes to the enhancement the protective effects of hyperimmune colostrum protein in the ETEC challenge experiments, but the difference was not statistically significant.
As little as mg consumed three times per day without buffer gave an estimated In addition to ETEC, viruses contribute to a significant proportion of both neonatal calf diarrhea and Traveler's Diarrhea , In a double blinded, placebo-controlled study, Mitra et al.
Similarly, another study reported that purified immunoglobulins from hyperimmune bovine colostrum conferred a similar effect in acute rotavirus infection, supporting these findings While neither study examined the impact of colostrum from cows which had not been immunized against the target pathogen, a clinical trial examining the differences between hyperimmune bovine colostrum and bovine colostrum among children infected with shigellosis caused by Shigella dysenteriae S.
However, preclinical studies in other biomedical models e. Together, these findings may suggest that infectious mechanisms of pathogenesis shape the ability of hyperimmune bovine colostrum to influence disease progression as S. Given the biological role of colostrum for neonates 8 , , its documented bioactive components as outlined here, and the potential for development as a functional food or food ingredient. However, overcoming processing challenges to separate bioactive fractions from colostrum remains a challenge to both study the mechanisms by which this fluid can act on humans and for practical product development.
Future clinical trials should address current gaps in understanding which populations, such as those with GI disorders, may benefit most from colostrum consumption and whether whole or fractionated colostrum offers the most attractive balance of nutrition and bioactive properties.
