Colostrum - The Amazing First Milk

Janelle had been doing very well on Feb, But when it reaches March all her naughty naughty starts to come back again. From my observation, naughty will come back to her when she had a little sight cold/flu. so decided to give Janelle a try on supplement - colostrum - boosting immunities and helping her to ward off illness or recover more quickly. Started the first dose yesterday morning (3March), but naughty still come and visit her yesterday noon time. Will continue to try for another 2 weeks to see if there is any improvment.

I do did a little research:

"Colostrum is a rich milk that contains antibodies and good bacteria to protect your baby from illness. Colostrum is this incredible milk and is often referred to as "liquid gold" because of its tremendous health benefits to babies. Like breastmilk, colostrum provides numerous antibodies to the baby through its powerful white blood cells. These cells can attack harmful bacteria that may cause your baby to get sick during his first few days of life. For this reason, both colostrum and breastmilk are actually closer to human blood than they are to infant formula in their amazing ability to fight off disease and illness." -- and this is also one of the reason why i insist to breastfeed when janelle was new born. It had been always my regrets for not continue breastfeeding for Janelle. (She started having seizures when i stopped breastfeeding). So when i first got to know this supplement from my neighbour, an instinct that i must give it a try for janelle. of cos, before i commit, i read up online to ensure this will not do more harm for her. "No significant bovine colostrum side effects have yet been reported in the medical literature"

  2. according to chinese yishi, this maybe too heaty for her Janelle. And once Janelle gets heaty, naughty will comes... this is only one of the factor to put a stop for a while and monitor.

    Post interesting and thanks for sharing. Some things in here I have not thought about before. Thanks for doing the cool-down, which is really good written. I will refer more friends about this. This is one of the charismatic, informatics blog and a good book about life at most that have been described in the special features to help readers and visitors. All information found here is genuine and realistic.

  4. After janelle was much better and was tested ok with colustrum, i have put her back.. It has been 2 months now.. The past 2 months was good.. no flu no fever.. But during my trip to bkk, maid/hus had no idea about the colustrum, so she wasnt given during that 3 to 4 days. and she fall sick after that 4th day without colustrum..

    Wondering if this colstrum is helping her or hurting her?
