Exceptional for healing leaky gut and correcting gut dysbiosis!
I just started using colostrum about two weeks ago. I've got severe, AWFUL intestinal permeability that resulted from years of chronic stress and a nasty systemic Candida infection. Daily I suffer allergies, multiple chemical sensitivities, oxidative mitochondrial stress, and chronic inflammation. I have no clue how I've managed to avoid an autoimmune disease, but it's something that I know could pop up at any time. I'm working really hard at healing my gut and restoring the proper flora, but this process takes time - several years. I've been gluten-free for a year, which did help slightly. However, the problem with leaky gut, especially when it's as severe as mine, is you can become allergic to any and every food you put into your body. This is definitely true for me. I've read a lot about healing leaky gut and am surprised that I don't see Colostrum mentioned more often. In the newborns that consume it, colostrum serves to seal the tight junctions in the gut. I reasoned, if it works for them, why wouldn't it do the same for us? So, here's what I've noticed since taking it (2 scoops per day, which is the aggressive, healing dose): I sleep MUCH better, often sleeping soundly through the night now. That hasn't happened since I got sick a year ago. Also, my immune system is much stronger. One of the reasons I wanted to take colostrum is its ability to modulate the immune system. I reckon that in my condition, autoimmunity is right around the corner. I'm hoping that taking this shifts my immune system away from autoimmunity and stabilizes it. I was on medication for two years that suppressed my immune system and hardcore antibiotics that wiped out my healthy flora. So, you can imagine how bad my gut dysbiosis is. I know the colostrum is working, because the first day I took it, I slept and slept. This continued for about a week. There is lots of healing going on in this wrecked body of mine. Prior to this product, my immune system simply was not working. Candida toxins can "turn off" parts of the immune system that keep pathogens at bay. Colostrum is the only product I've found that eases my allergies/chemical sensitivities, while turning back on the white blood cells that attack pathogens. This is a product I intend to take for a very, very long time, if not indefinitely. Over the last year, I've tried many supplements to heal my body and alleviate my chronic fatigue/adrenal dysfunction; colostrum is one of the few I've found to be indispensible. Healing the gut, replenishing the flora, and removing the toxins is the key to restoring perfect health. Colostrum helps on all counts and supplies the body with available, easily-accessible nutrients and antibodies to aid in this restoration. I also think it's pretty tasty stuff.
