Colostrum for Vitamins, Minerals and more
In addition to the many health-related benefits that can be realized by routine dietary supplementation with high quality first milking bovine colostrum such supplementation is also very supportive to absorption and utilization of certain vitamins and minerals by the body.
Protein Blend
Bovine colostrum does contain many different vitamins, minerals, enzymes and more. Since many of the functions associated with colostrum ingestion are largely anabolic (involved in growth and repair), vitamins are not required in large amounts.
However, colostrum does contain significant amounts of vitamins A, C, E, and D and many of the B vitamins. Certain vitamins, particularly the B vitamins, and many minerals must be attached to specialized carrier proteins for proper absorption; whether you get them in an isolated form or a whole food form. Colostrum does contain the appropriate specialized carrier proteins for the B vitamins, insuring that they are assimilated and available for use in the body.
Here is a small sample of a 3rd party analysis of a certified true colostrum:

As you can see the essentials are there and much more including essential glyconutrients (sugars), essential fats, this doesn't even take into consideration all the immune factors and growth factors!
Remember, this is a whole food. You always will have a better absorption if you start with a whole food first!
Bovine colostrum also contains amounts of many different minerals and trace minerals. A specialized protein found in colostrum, lactoferrin, binds minerals such as iron and copper very efficiently and transports them from the small intestine into the bloodstream. In addition, another protein found in large amounts in colostrum, casein, serves as an excellent carrier protein for calcium, making it more absorbent by the body.
Ask for a 3rd party analysis wherever possible in order to validate the substance as colostrum, this ensures you receiving all the possible benefits.
