Mothernest Colostrum Milk Powder with Calcium

Overview

Colostrum Milk Powder with Calcium is a versatile, high-quality nutritional supplement formulated to support daily wellbeing for all ages. Sourced from high-grade bovine colostrum and blended with milk powder and essential nutrients like calcium and Vitamin C, it delivers a gentle yet nourishing source of immune-supporting and growth-promoting nutrients.

What is Colostrum?

Colostrum is the nutrient-rich "first milk" produced by mammals in the days immediately following birth. It contains immunoglobulins (especially IgG), growth factors, proteins, and antibodies that support a newborn's early development. Bovine colostrum, which is nearly identical in composition to human colostrum, is widely recognised for its health-supportive properties when consumed as a supplement.

How Was It Discovered?

The use of bovine colostrum as a nutritional and immune-supportive supplement dates back centuries in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine. Its modern-day use in powdered form became popular after studies confirmed the presence of bioactive compounds that can benefit the immune system and gut health in both children and adults .

What Is Its Role in the Human Body?

Colostrum is naturally rich in immune-supporting immunoglobulins (IgG), lactoferrin, proline-rich polypeptides, and growth factors that help:

• Strengthen gut lining
• Support nutrient absorption
• Maintain healthy immune responses

Calcium and Vitamin C further assist with bone development and antioxidant support, making this blend ideal for everyday use.

What Foods Is It Naturally Found In?

Colostrum is found only in the first milk of mammals after giving birth. It is not available in typical dairy products like milk or cheese. Supplementation offers a convenient way to access this unique nutrition source.

How Is It Beneficial?

Colostrum’s high IgG content is known to support immune function, particularly in growing children and individuals with dietary limitations. Research suggests bovine colostrum may help reduce the severity and frequency of upper respiratory tract infections and support gut barrier integrity, especially in physically active individuals . Combined with milk powder and added calcium, this formula provides a full-spectrum supplement for growth and recovery.

What Does the Research Say About Colostrum’s Efficacy?

According to a review published in the British Journal of Nutrition, bovine colostrum supplementation may help improve immune parameters and gastrointestinal health in athletes and children . The European Food Safety Authority also recognises colostrum as a safe food ingredient, and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) reports it may support gut integrity and immune response .
