Is there any danger of contracting Mad Cow Disease through the cows colostrums or from extracted transfer factor?

0

Experts on Mad Cow Disease have stated that BSE does not pass through the mammary glands into the colostrums. In examining all of the cows that became ill with Mad cow Disease, not one of them had infected milk, colostrums or mammary gland. Scientists have found that different bovine tissues contain different amounts of the BSE agent. Scientists have also discovered that the highest amount of the infectivity from animals in the final stages of clinical disease is found in the brain and spinal cords. Milk has never been shown to have any infectivity.
