Laktoferrin 350 mg 120 caps by Allergy Research Group contains a specific peptide extracted from bovine colostrum (“mother's first milk”) and possessing iron-binding properties. Lactoferrin is involved in biochemical processes in lymphocytes and in iron metabolism.
Obtained from the milk of cattle that have been specially bred without using any hormones, antibiotics or pesticides, Laktoferrin is specially formulated to work with a person's iron metabolism. Taking anywhere from one to three capsules per night before bed, those using Laktoferrin can be sure they are getting a product that is found to contain no preservatives, artificial additives or diluents.
As with any supplement, consulting with a health care provider is highly recommended before beginning its use. A word of caution has been issued about Laktoferrin possibly acting as an immune stimulant in some people. Because of this, it has been determined that those who are pregnant or suffering from pancreatitis or leukemia not use the product. It's also recommended that people with allergic or autoimmune conditions start off with small doses, and always stay in consultation with their health care provider while using this or other products.
It's best to keep them stored in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly secured. Variations in product color may occur in some cases, so also keep that in mind and always consult your doctor with any questions.
