Colostrum is the first, supercharged form of milk produced by mammals just after giving birth. It is packed with a wide range of essential nutrients and antibodies, providing newborns with a powerful health boost. 

This natural superfood is crafted to help them thrive from the very beginning. It is the first out-of-the-womb nourishment that forms our gut microbiome and immunity.

For adults, incorporating bovine colostrum supplements into your routine can optimise immune protection, enhance gut health, and amplify your body's natural ability to heal and regenerate. Experience the foundational support of nature’s most potent nutrition.

Modern lifestyles have a negative effect on the environment and our health. The mucosal gut barrier encompasses ~80% of your immune system and serves as the primary defence against everything you breathe and consume from the external environment.

Exposure to pollution, chemicals, and unhealthy diets can weaken this barrier. When it becomes compromised, harmful substances can get inside your body, leaving you feeling unwell.

Gutlinks Colostrum fortifies the body’s natural defences, effectively sealing and protecting these barriers to prevent harmful particles from entering the bloodstream and reducing inflammation. It offers superior protection against everyday toxins, pollutants, allergens, and processed foods, setting the stage for enhanced health and vitality.

The immunoglobulins in colostrum initially work to eliminate gut pathogens, such as Clostridium difficile and Candida. Once these pathogens are cleared, the focus shifts to repair factors and lactoferrin, which help restore the microvilli (hair-like structures that make up the gut wall) in the small intestine.

Essentially, colostrum acts to rid the gut of harmful bacteria and then strengthens the gut wall, either preventing or reversing “leaky gut”. This has a positive impact on other areas of health.

Gutlinks is not about quick fixes, but rather about consistent effort for sustainable results. This is why we recommend taking colostrum consistently, like you would engage in any other long-term healthy habit.

Like with any other supplementher, a good start would be 2-3 months with Gutlinks before you evaluate its effectiveness for your specific goals.

Colostrum is naturally significantly lower in lactose than milk. Moreover, when colostrum is taken as a supplement in powdered form, a single dose is only a few grams and the lactose content per dose is very minimal.

For many people with lactose intolerance, especially those with a mild form, this small amount of lactose should not cause any symptoms. However, sensitivity to lactose varies greatly among individuals. If you have severe lactose intolerance, consider starting with a low dose (2g) to see how your body reacts and adjust accordingly.
