Body Building and Colostrum

Riddle of the Century - Who am I?

This may be the riddle of the century. Who am I? Here are some clues. You have all used me. Many of you owe your life to me. I am without doubt the most healthful substance that has ever existed. I make the difference between sickness and health, between strength and weakness, even life and death. Yet many of you have no idea who I am. Here is a final clue: I was your first meal. The answer is of course colostrum. First comes colostrum then comes milk. Colostrum is the first meal of all mammals, including humans and is absolutely essential to good health, strength, and vitality, and if you are into body building, or just want to be stronger and look better the easy way, colostrum is the answer.

How safe is colostrum?

Bovine colostrum is not only safe as a natural supplement for body building, it may be the most healthful thing you can do for yourself diet-wise. Among other health benefits, colostrum strengthens and balances the immune system, increases oxygenation, speeds muscle recovery, and hastens the healing of injuries. Also after decades of use as a natural supplement by millions of people, there are no known side effects. The great thing about colostrum is that the IGF-1 is in a balanced state with other components (TGFb2 for example) so it does not encourage abnormal cell growth, as is sometimes shown to be the case when it is used in the unbalanced state.

What FLEX Magazine Said About Colostrum

“Colostrum provides the calf with growth factors such as IGF-1 and immune factors, as well as nutrients that will aid growth; consuming bovine colostrum gives you IGF-1 and other nutrients to stimulate muscle growth.” (Jim Stoppani, PhD, Senior FLEX Science Editor)

Of the hundreds of healthful components found in colostrum, the one of most interest to body builders is the growth factor IGF-1. According to FLEX magazine, IGF-1 helps to build muscle in three important ways. It prevents muscle protein from breaking down, it increases the synthesis of protein, and it recruits satellite muscle cells that add size to muscle fibers. As much as 60 grams of colostrum daily over a four week period does not change IGF-1 blood levels and does not cause a positive result on drug tests, and much less than that is required for maximum benefit.
