BOVINE COLOSTRUM AND ITS IMMPORTANSE

 Colostrum is a milky fluid.It is produced by mammary glands of mammals.That comes from the breasts of cow and other mammals the first few days after giving birth,before true milk appears.It contains protein,carbohydrates,fats,vitamins,minerals and specific kinds of protein called antibodies that fight disease causing agents such as bacteria and virus,antibody levels in bovine colostrum can be 100 times higher in regular cows milk.
Some species fat concentration is substantially higher in colostrum than in milk (eg) sheep and horse.Some other species lower in colostrum than in milk(eg) camels and humans.

                                                     

Colostrum is known to contain immune cells(lymphocytes)and many antibodies such as IgA,IgG, and IgM. Other immune components of colostrum include the major components of the innate immune systems,such as lactoferrin,lysozyme,lactoperoxidase,complement and proline-rich polypeptides.A number of cytokines (small messenger peptides that control the functioning of the immune system)are found in colostrum as well including interleukins,tumor necrosis factor,chemokinase are found in claustrum .Human colostrum is the first milk produced after birth an is particularly rich in Immunoglobulin (IgA) It is responsible for passive immunity. 

BENEFITS OF COLOSTRUM SUPPLEMENTATION

ALLERGY RELIEF

Allergies are human in common problem.It comes as a result of immunoglobulin production by the body.The body produce IgE response to forgive vitamins and proteins.Colostrum supplement suppress the IgE production by desensitizing the body.It contains antibody that work against allergen in human bodies.

                                                                                
SKIN HEALTH SUPPORT

Colostrum is a natural source of telomerase,an enzyme that may slow down the aging of DNA.Telomerase is found in DNA strands,and it enables undamaged skin cells to replicate themselves.Colostrum also contain epithelial and epidermal growth factor(EGF) and insulin like growth factor(IGF),both of which have been shown to support cell regeneration. The lactoferrin in colostrum helps the body manage its responce to skin cells.

 

IMMUNE FUNCTION

Some research shows colostrum`s antibody levels are 100 times higher than those found in regular cow`s milk.As such,colostrum helps modulate the immune system and protect the gastro intestinal(GI) tract.Colostrum also contains immunoglobulins the stay in the GI tract to further support the immune function.                                                                       

GUT HEALING

A healthy gut supports and individuals overall health and well-being,yet certain foods, stress,and environmental factors may harm the gut.Colostrum  increase the surface area of the gut lining to comber leaky gut,a condition that ereates holes or opening in the gut lining.When leaky gut occurs,food and other harmful toxins can penetrate the gut lining,resulting in inflammation that causes various digestive health issue.Colostrum helps restore the gut maintain to normal permeability levels.It contains growth factors and hormones to help the gut maintain tight-junction integrity.Colostrum also contain immunoglobulins that support the guts microbes.Colostrum may even promote the growth of friendly bacteria in the gut too.

                                                                 
BONE DENSITY

Loss of bone density and overall bone mass can be a major problem,especially for women.Body always replacing the cells in your bones.But as you age,your body doesn't replenish cell quality enough to keep up with the cells lost.That means bones become more porous and brittle,possibly leading to  menopausal women are especially susceptibility to oesteoporosis not only because women generally have less bone mass than men to begin with,but also because changes in hormone levels can accelerate bone loss.Colostrum can help to migrate the bone loss,containing a cocktail of bone-health helpers like TGF-B, lactoferrin,epithelial growth factor (EGF),osteopotin and IGF-2 all of which support healthy bones.

                                                              

MUSCLE
In addition to helping preserve muscle and lean body mass,colostrum can help to maintain a healthy weight.Colostrum contain bio active peptides and amino acids that stimulates hormones that tells refill,making it easier to avoid overindulging at the dinner table.It also provides your body directly with leptin,a hormone that helps efficiently use energy for calories in addition to helping with satiety signals.

                                                     


  Other compnents of colostrum,like leucine,have been shown to play role in fat loss,improved muscle maintenance,and modulating glucose levels.

Egg has contain very rich source of selenium,vitaminD,B6,B12 and minerals such ...

PANEER AND ITS HEALTH BENEFITS

Image
 Paneer is a kind of fresh,soft,un-ripened cheese obtained from coagulation of cow or buffalo milk.It is also known as Chana in Bangladesh and West-Bengal state of India. Paneer is a good source of protein. 100g of paneer yield about 8g of protein which is for people who weight train as they need protein is used for muscle building and repair. Proteins are also loaded with a wide range of health benefits.Cow milk contains the highest amount of casein protein among various kinds of milk. Paneer provides high quality of protein that is rich in all essential aminoacids required for growth and development of the body.A cube of raw paneer there fore makes for power house of protein . COMPONENTS OF PANEER Paneer also contain good amount of calcium,magnesium and phosphorous,and together with vitaminD,paneer ensures suffficient nutrient available for bone growth ,especially like in the childrn .It contains all the both fat-soluble and vitamin B-complex group of vitamins available in the...
