Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in human and bovine breast milk that has a potent immunostimulatory effect. Its multifunctional role includes antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antioxidant, and immunoregulatory activities. It helps manage the inflammatory response and deprives bacteria of iron, one of their nutrients. Inflammatory conditions for which lactoferrin supplementation may be helpful include high cholesterol, gastrointestinal inflammation, respiratory tract inflammation, and acne.
Lactoferrin has been successfully used to improve the immunity of cancer patients and reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. It is used in neonatal units to help reduce infections in hospitals, and improved infant formulas made in China are now enriched with it. Lactoferrin can also stimulate cells responsible for bone growth and helps improve the absorption of iron in the diet of people with iron deficiency.
In addition to improving overall health, lactoferrin reduces the spread of acne by binding to iron to reduce free radicals. Lactoferrin also reduces inflammation to speed up the healing process and reduce oil production in the skin.
Anyone looking to boost their immunity can take this supplement for added protection against illness and infection.
