Colostrum

Recently,  a friend of mine from high-school wrote an article about Colostrum. Up to then I have never even heard of it. After reading all about its amazing powers and incredible benefits, I was intrigued. Well, I just got my own chance to try it, and since it worked for me, I decided to share it with you.

First things first -  what exactly is Colstrum, and how is it beneficial to us?

Colostrum is the first lacteal secretion produced by the mammary gland of a mother prior to the production of milk. It is a nourishing fluid produced by mammals as food for the newborn in the few days after birth, before milk production begins. It is rich in a variety of biologically active proteins, including immunoglobulins (fight against bacteria, viruses and yeast), Lactoferrin (defends against infections and is anti-inflammatory) and other factors that support our immune system.

So, Colostrum is nature’s way of making sure newborns are protected from viruses and dangerous bacteria right after they are born. Thanks to modern science, Colostrum is now sold as a dietary supplement at many Health-food stores.

I have tried it for myself and now I am a believer! I highly recommend it to anyone.  I have spent some time reading reviews on-line and found out that Colostrum has helped many with allergies, auto-immune diseases, cold and flu symptoms and much more. Try it for yourself, and let me know what you think! I would love to hear from you.

The amazing power of vitamins

Most people believe that they get enough vitamins and minerals
from the food they eat. That is not always the case. To get the most nutrition
out of your diet, it is important to eat small portions made with fresh produce consistently throughout the day. Yet how many of you reading this don’t have time to prepare your own meals every day? In this day and age it is common for people to either skip breakfast, have lunch in a cafeteria or end the day with a microwave dinner. If you’ve experienced how it is to feel tired mid-afternoon then vitamin supplements may help.

Don’t worry; I am not going to start preaching about the foods you should or shouldn’t eat. Well, at least not in this post.
Instead, I want to tell you about the huge difference vitamins and minerals can make in your body almost instantaneously. By taking vitamins you will easily improve the way you feel each and every day.

Vitamins serve as a buffer in the event that your diet does not meet your daily requirements fully. Here are two of the most essential vitamins:

Vitamin B = ENERGY

• Support Metabolism
• Helps to use energy from food efficiently
• Helps to maintain healthy hair, skin and muscle tone

Check the back of every single energy drink or 24-hour energy shots. They are full of vitamin B (or rather B-Complex*). All of them contain thousands % of the daily recommended amount. Also, the drinks are much more expensive than B-Complex vitamins, so why waste your money…

* B-Complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12)

C = IMMUNITY

• Highly effective antioxidant
• Protects you from infections
• Promotes wound healing
• Boosts immunity (it makes it harder for the cold virus to settle in your body)

Make sure to get enough of vitamin B and C to feel energized all day. Other essential vitamins include vitamin D (make sure you get enough sun), vitamin E (great for your skin and hair) and vitamin A.
