Levann „jA” Colostrum +, 60 g
- Freeze-dried colostrum with no added sugars and no casein - an ideal choice for those who want to strengthen the body in a natural way. Colostrum + is a product for the whole family, from children to adults, to support their immunity and digestive system!
What is colostrum? How is Levann's Colostrum + made?
Colostrum is the first food of newborn mammals, including humans. It is the true “essence of life,” full of key nutrients such as proteins, vitamins and minerals that build immunity from the first moments of life. But that's just the beginning!
Colostrum freeze-dried IgG35 is produced by microfiltration and lyophilization. Freeze-drying is a process that directly removes water from the product, while omitting the liquid state. While standard drying is carried out using high temperatures destroying much of the nutritional value, the use of freeze-drying helps preserve most of the vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other valuable components contained in the fresh product.
In the production of Levann “jA” Colostrum +, bovine colostrum is used. Thanks to the freeze-dried process, it is not exposed to high temperatures, thus eliminating the risk of degradation of the nutrients it contains. In addition, no additional technological carriers are used in the freeze-dried method.
How does colostrum work? Your natural superhero on the way to strong immunity!
Colostrum acts as a powerful immune active ingredient bomb even for older children and adults. It contains valuable biologically active substances, such as immunoglobulins[1], which play a key role in neutralizing microorganisms, especially in the gastrointestinal tract - the body's first line of defense against external threats.
In addition, a growing body of research confirms that colostrum, with its anti-inflammatory properties[2], can have a major impact on the tightness of the intestinal barrier[3], supporting a healthy gut microbiota. And as is well known, as much as 80% of our immunity[4] comes from the gut. Colostrum + by Levann Supplements contains 100% natural bovine colostrum subjected to a freeze-drying process, so it retains all the properties of fresh colostrum. Thus, it ensures maximum effectiveness, quality and composition.

- you want to build iron immunity: the natural components of colostrum act as reliable guardians of your health, offering effective protection against external threats,

How does Colostrum + taste?
Colostrum+ prepared according to the description on the package - with water, has a delicate taste of unsweetened currant juice. Slightly fruity aftertaste with a hint of acidity.
When consumed with a meal - yogurt or oatmeal - it slightly affects its taste, but gives an interesting pink-purple color. In addition, it is a great way to give Colostrum + to children. It will not change the taste of the meal significantly, but will give it a very distinctive pink color.

Colostrum
Colostrum is the first food produced by mammals just after the birth of their young, full of antibodies and nutrients. Colostrum is rich in immunoglobulins, which are directly involved in modulating non-specific and specific immune responses. [1]
Camu camu fruit
They have antioxidant properties, being rich in vitamin C* and other compounds such as polyphenols, anthocyanins and ellagic acid. Studies indicate that the combination of other antioxidants from camu camu berries enhances the antioxidant effects better than vitamin C alone. [5]
Acerola extract
Acerola is a natural source of vitamin C*, with up to 100 times more vitamin C in 100 grams of fresh fruit than in other fruits. In addition, the presence of polyphenols and anthocyanins improves its absorption. Acerola extract also contains other important antioxidants, such as carotenoids and bioflavonoids, which help protect cells from oxidative damage.[6]*
Vitamin C
Is one of the most important natural antioxidants, protecting the body from oxidative stress. Studies suggest that it is associated with both non-specific and specific immune responses. There is no doubt that it is essential to our body - it has numerous biochemical functions that affect the immune system's ability to function optimally [7]*.
Freeze-dried currants
Freeze-dried currants are a real bomb of antioxidants! Rich in vitamin C, bioflavonoids and anthocyanins, they support the immune system, help protect cells from oxidative stress and strengthen the body's natural defenses. Thanks to freeze-drying, they retain all the valuable nutritional properties, adding intense flavor and color to the supplement.
