kolostrumin

Kolostrumin is a term that refers to colostrum, the first milk produced by mammals after giving birth. This thick, yellowish fluid is rich in antibodies, growth factors, and other essential nutrients that are crucial for the newborn's immediate survival and development. Colostrum acts as the initial source of passive immunity, providing the infant with antibodies that protect against infections until their own immune system matures. It also contains vital nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and vitamins that are easily digestible and support the growth of the infant's gut and other organs. The composition of colostrum can vary slightly between species but generally serves the same fundamental purpose: to nourish and protect the newborn during the critical early days of life. In humans, breastfeeding within the first hour after birth is highly encouraged to ensure the baby receives this vital first milk.
