Hepatica Capra Colostrum is a dietary supplement which contains 500 mg of dried colostrum in one capsule, standardised for the high content of immunoglobulins (27%). The product contains a unique colostrum obtained from the pure colostrum of the first goat milk, whose composition resembles human milk.

Colostrum is the first milk secreted by female mammals during labor and for the first few days after it. It supports the proper functioning of the immune system of newborns which is not fully developed yet as well as the passive resistance to pathogens.

On the first day after birth, the females of all mammals, including goats, can produce enough colostrum to fully satisfy the needs of its offspring. The excess of colostrum, especially if it is of high quality, can be stored and then used not only for feeding farm animals, but also as a part of the human diet.

The composition of colostrum
The composition of colostrum depends on many factors, such as animal species, breed, genetic features and diet. The composition of colostrum resembles human milk. Its main advantages are high content of minerals (phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, sodium and calcium), vitamins (A, B1, B2, B6, C and E), enzymes, proteins, fatty acids, the presence of immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, lysozyme and lactoperoxidase.

Immunoglobulin (IG) is a protein secreted by B-lymphocytes during the humoral immune response. They are characterised by the ability to specifically recognise antigens. Immunoglobulins play an important role in defending the body against pathogens.

To sum it all up, Hepatica Capra Colostrum is a dietary supplement which, due to the high content of immunoglobulin and other biologically active proteins, can be a natural support for the body, e.g. during increased infections or during antibiotic therapy.
