Quick Read:
- Health experts around the world, and for countless generations, have called colostrum “liquid gold” and “nature’s first food” due to its powerful gut-nourishing effects.
- Colostrom can help prevent “leaky gut,” which is vital when chemotherapy or radiation can compromise digestion and immunity.
- Colostrom might also help reduce chemotherapy side-effects like mouth sores.
The titles “liquid gold” and “nature’s first food” have been bestowed upon organic, grass-fed colostrum by health experts across the world for thousands of years. It’s been part of Indian ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years, and the first Western study was conducted in 1799. Since then, it has been used as a natural alternative to antibiotics and a powerful way to elevate gut health and immunity through supplements. Nature’s nourishment meets modern science delivered to your door or grocery store.
To confidently decide if colostrum should be part of your healing journey, please keep on reading, and, as always, talk it over with your Coach [1] and medical team.
What Is Colostrum for Adults?
When most people think of colostrum, especially those who have birthed babies, the first thing that comes to mind is the sticky, exceptionally nutritious substance that is produced in a woman’s body for the first few days after giving birth. It’s purpose-built to support newborns, delivering high concentrations of antibodies (IgA, IgG, IgM), growth factors (IGF‑1, TGF‑β, EGF), lactoferrin, and proline‑rich polypeptides (PRPs). (Info [2])
Those same benefits and more can come from bovine colostrum (from grass-fed cows). There are studies to show that it can play a helpful role in your healing journey.
Let’s take a look:
- Reinforce Immune and Gut Health
Colostrum’s immunoglobulins and growth factors may support gut health and reduce permeability (or “leaky gut”), which is vital when chemotherapy or radiation can compromise digestion and immunity. (Study [3]) To learn more about supporting your gut health for optimal healing, please review this blog post [4]. - Ease Cancer Treatment Side-Effects
Brand new studies [5], as of August 2025, suggest bovine colostrum might help reduce chemotherapy side‑effects like mouth sores and weakened immunity, thanks to its tissue‑healing and anti‑inflammatory compounds. While more research needs to be done, these findings are encouraging. Manuka honey [6] can also help fend off mouth sores. - Anti-Cancer Potential
Laboratory research highlights colostrum’s components as possible modulators of cancer pathways via immune regulation, growth suppression, and anti‑inflammation. In humans, the data remain preliminary, but these findings are still promising for using colostrum as one potential method to enhance healing. (Study [7])
Hormone-Sensitive Caution
Some colostrum contains trace amounts of estrogen. Therefore, if you have hormone-sensitive breast cancer, it’s wise to discuss with your Coach [1] and medical team before using it.
How to start using colostrum.
- Start slowly. Consider beginning with a small dose post-treatment when your gut and immune system are rebuilding. If you are not in treatment, still consider starting with a small dose to see how your body reacts.
- Track your body’s response. Notice changes in digestion, energy, sleep, immunity, or treatment side-effects.
- Stay in dialogue. Share your experience with your Coach [1] and medical team, ensuring alignment with your overall plan.
- Pair it with vibrantly healthy lifestyle practices. Remember: colostrum works best when combined with clean nutrition, daily movement, stress reduction, and other evidence-based healing tools.
How to Choose the Right Colostrum.
Not all supplements are created equal. To ensure safety and potency:
- Look for organic, grass-fed sources. Cows raised without hormones and antibiotics provide cleaner colostrum.
[8] - Check for third-party testing. Transparency about purity and absence of contaminants is key.
- Opt for low-heat processing. Gentle methods preserve fragile bioactive compounds.
- Read the label carefully. Choose a brand that discloses immunoglobulin content; it should be around 1.2 grams per serving.
