This cow colostrum is more than likely produced at one of the transgenic
dairy farms in the US, New Zealand, Canada or Finland. I looked into this
before and I do believe I have mentioned it before. What I believe is in
this supplement is genetically engineered human lactoferrin.
This is from the web site
http://www.firstmilking.com/whatiscolostrum.htm
. "The components of bovine colostrum are identical to the components of
human colostrum, except that bovine colostrum is more concentrated."
I believe if we trace back these supplements to the dairys, all the dairys
will be those that have transgenic herds. In fact one of the uses for human
lactoferrin as stated in one or two of the patents I have seen is for cystic
fibrosis. So I find it interesting that this infant was saved by use of a
product that is modeled on human colostrum. But goodness they have us
believing that genetic engineering of human lactoferrin makes it better than
the real thing. Oops... we aren't suppose to know its genetically engineered
or should I say the product of cloning. Valerie W. McClain, IBCLC
