Top Medical Research Studies

We investigated the impact of bovine lactoferrin (LF) on managing Cronobacter bacteria in herbal infant teas. Our study revealed that when herbal teas are reconstituted with hot water at 60 degrees Celsius or above, there is a significant reduction in Cronobacter growth.

Additionally, at higher concentrations of LF, the bacteria's viability was eliminated within four hours at 37 degrees Celsius. However, lower concentrations and temperatures compromised the effectiveness of LF. This suggests that including LF in herbal infant teas could enhance their safety against harmful bacteria.

Lactoferrin shows protective effects
Our research looked at how colostral antibodies, particularly those from cows vaccinated against Shiga toxin-2, might help prevent infections from the harmful E. coli O157:H7 pathogen.

We found that the hyperimmune colostrum exhibited strong protective effects, neutralizing the cytotoxicity of E. coli and enhancing gut health. Notably, it completely prevented lethality in a mice model infected with E. coli O157:H7.

Although the protective qualities are promising, more studies are needed before we can offer solid recommendations for practical use in clinical settings.

Significant improvement
My cat has frequently sneezed for over a year, so I was introduced to lactoferrin. Adding one tablet to his food daily resulted in a significant improvement within a week. I plan to continue administering lactoferrin in hopes of completely curing him.

Increased iron absorption

The lactoferrin supplement is remarkable for boosting immunity and enhancing iron absorption. It's beneficial for anyone facing iron deficiency or intestinal issues. I've reordered it more than once as it has helped boost iron levels for me and my daughter. I highly recommend pairing it with natural iron-rich foods for optimal absorption.

I am currently on my second course of lactoferrin to raise my ferritin levels instead of iron complexes. I take it daily on an empty stomach or with food. Lactoferrin has also greatly improved my immunity. After recovering from omicron, I will continue with this course as it significantly depletes iron. I generally take these courses for 2-3 months, followed by breaks.

Improved immunity
2 people found this helpful
I sought this for my cat with kidney failure and anaemia, feeling it was essential for her immune system. I promptly gave her lactoferrin alongside cobalamin (B12), leading to significant improvements in her skin condition and anaemia levels. I take one capsule and mix it with wet food three to four times, and she consumes it well.

Regular intake of lactoferrin is expected to be effective in preventing infections from norovirus, which is a common cause of gastroenteritis and food poisoning. Additionally, results from tests on mice suggest it may help reduce flu symptoms.

No resistance
I purchased Bi cat food, but my cats are not keen on the taste. I've used half a bottle, but I have not noticed any improvement in their resistance.

Excellent absorption

If you've struggled with low ferritin and iron deficiency, give this lactoferrin a try! It successfully raised my ferritin levels to heights I never experienced before. I've tried countless iron preparations with no success because my digestive tract wasn't functioning properly. This lactoferrin has greatly improved my iron absorption and produced visible results in a few months. Good ferritin levels positively impact my overall well-being.

No effect noted
Advertised as a diet food in Korea, I purchased it with high hopes, but it had no effect whatsoever.
