The science behind the product:
Lactoferrin has a variety of uses in biological systems and is considered a first line immune defense in the human body [5]. It was found that the ingestion of this nutrient has direct protective effects on the regulation and modulation of the immune system [5].
One study examined lactoferrin as a “natural antibiotic” and found that it in both in-vitro and in-vivo studies strongly suppressed the toxic bacteria helicobacter pylori [5]. It was concluded that bovine (cows) lactoferrin has significant antimicrobial activity against helicobacter species in-vitro and in-vivo [5].
