Effect of colostrum in pet food

Bovine colostrum may help stimulate the immune response in dogs and cats while maintaining a healthier gut microbiota throughout life.

Colostrum is the milk produced by cows in the first few days after birth. It is a combination of mammary gland secretions and proteins transferred from the bloodstream.

Scientific research has shown that the active ingredients in bovine colostrum can resist digestion in the stomach and reach the intestines unchanged. According to research, colostrum contains oligosaccharides, which have a prebiotic effect, lactoferrin, which supports the intestinal microbiota and immune system, and growth factors that control inflammation and help repair.

Thanks to the colostrum-enriched diet, local IgA production from the gut-associated lymphoid tissue increases and supports local and systemic immune responses by improving vaccine responses.

It supports the stability of the gut microbiota in daily stress situations and increases the diversity and stability of the gut microbiota.
