Colostrum
What can this natural miracle do?

 

What do you imagine when you hear the word colostrum? Breastfeeding? Milk? Yes – it is one of the most important fluids that you can find in nature. In today`s article you will learn what this natural miracle can do.

What is colostrum and why is it important?

Colostrum is the first drops of life. Immediately after birth, thanks to breastfeeding - colostrum - a unique cocktail of the strongest immune components found in nature enters the body of mammals.

Colostrum, or the first breast milk, is formed in the glands just before birth and is a unique complex substance that contains vitamins, minerals, proteins, amino acids, lactoferrin, oligosaccharides, regenerative substances and many other substances - it is the so-called nature boost immediately after birth, so that the young are protected from pathogens, survive and grow quickly.

The Benefits of Colostrum

However, this elixir of life does not only benefit newborn babies. Colostrum has proven beneficial effects throughout life and today you can find it in cosmetics and food supplements.

Colostrum and cosmetics

1) Hydration - protection

The substances contained in colostrum help to lock moisture in the skin and protect the skin barrier. It is then more resistant to external influences (strong wind, smog) and becomes more elastic. Together with hyaluronic acid or wakame seaweed, a unique protective and moisturising shield is created.

 

2) Anti-ageing

The growth factors contained in colostrum help the formation of collagen and elastin. With increasing age, cell renewal slows down, but colostrum starts this process again and keeps it brisk.

 

3) Regeneration and healing

Small wounds and scars caused by sun exposure or acne heal and regenerate more effectively with colostrum. It also supports faster cell renewal in these cases. It can be used after sunbathing or for chapped lips. Combined with ingredients such as beeswax, jojoba oil, or macadamia oil, it creates an extra luxurious, nourishing care product.

 

4) Acne and inflammation

Here, the anti-inflammatory substances in colostrum directly fight bacteria that form on the skin and cause acne or various inflammations. This antibacterial effect also reduces swelling or redness. This makes it ideal for sensitive skin.

 

Colostrum and health

Immunity – Colostrum works on a higher level with immunity, because it not only strengthens immunity, but also maintains immune balance.

Energy – Colostrum helps with faster regeneration. When you have a cold or after strenuous sports, your body regenerates better and faster, gets stronger, and you gain more energy thanks to growth factors.

Gut and digestion – Here, colostrum acts directly in the intestines. Thanks to growth factors, it helps heal damaged intestines. Oligosaccharides then serve as food (prebiotics) for “beneficial intestinal bacteria”, which have an effect on immunity, psyche, allergies, or even skin manifestations.

How to use Colostrum cosmetics for the best results?

Skin preparation – as always, start with thorough cleansing.

Application – you don’t have to apply thick layers, but give the serum or cream enough time to absorb and don’t forget the neck and décolleté.

Ideal location – avoid high temperatures or humid environments and ideally store in a dark and cooler place.

Time plays a role – the best results need time to manifest themselves. Watch the gradual improvement in the quality of your skin. You can make a photo-timelapse (before-during-after several weeks of use).
