What is the difference between transfer factor and colostrum?
Colostrum contains water, vitamins, minerals, protein, fat, carbohydrates, antibodies (immunoglobins), and a little bit of human growth hormones and transfer factors. Store milk can provide water, vitamins, minerals, protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Antibodies in the cow’s colostrum are specific to a cow therefore not beneficial. Human growth hormone is not a real factor here due to the minuscule amount contained in colostrum. What is important are water and transfer factors. Colostrum is good. It’s just that we have found a way to extract the most important component, transfer factors.
