Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in human and bovine breast milk that has a powerful immunostimulatory effect. Its multifunctional role also includes antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory activities. Neonatal units successfully use lactoferrin to reduce infections in hospitals; improved infant formulas manufactured in China are now enriched with lactoferrin. As an immunomodulator, lactoferrin is involved in managing the inflammatory response, making it beneficial for the management of conditions such as high cholesterol, gastrointestinal inflammation, respiratory tract inflammation, and acne. Lactoferrin can also stimulate cells responsible for bone growth.
Animal studies confirm that the combination of lactoferrin and chemotherapy is more effective than either treatment alone. Lactoferrin can therefore be used to optimize the effectiveness of conventional treatments, as well as to prevent secondary infections. This is an important advantage, as infections secondary to immune dysfunction are a leading cause of death in cancer patients treated with radiation or chemotherapy. Lactoferrin Ultra contains 89% protein, a factor that makes it highly beneficial for cancer patients, for whom the ability to maintain adequate nutrition is essential for a favorable prognosis. Protein is particularly important for preventing the development of cancer cachexia, a condition characterized by weight loss, muscle wasting, weakness, and anorexia.
People who need to strengthen their immune system and supplement with protein in times of weakness or illness will greatly benefit from adding AOR Lactoferrin Ultra to their diet.
Adults: Add one teaspoon to your favorite beverage once daily or as directed by a healthcare professional. Stir with a spoon for 30 seconds.
