Sad story....what does 'denature' mean? Is this actually a technical
term, maybe  misused, or misapplied?

I did a little search on cow colostrum, and came up with these links,
both of which claim newborn babies can benefit from cow colostrum;
the first link claims there is no antibody content in human milk
after colostrum ceases to be produced.
