Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in human and bovine breast milk that has a powerful immunostimulant 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 milk formulas manufactured in China are now enriched with lactoferrin. As an immunomodulator, lactoferrin is involved in the management of the inflammatory response, making it beneficial for the management of diseases such as high cholesterol, gastrointestinal inflammation, respiratory tract inflammation and acne. Lactoferrin may also stimulate the 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 efficacy of conventional treatments, as well as to prevent secondary infections. This is an important benefit, as infections secondary to immune dysfunction are one of the leading causes 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 critical to a favorable prognosis. Protein is particularly important in preventing the development of cancer cachexia, a condition characterized by weight loss, muscle wasting, weakness and anorexia.
Individuals who require immune system support and protein supplementation in times of weakness or illness will benefit greatly from the addition of AOR Lactoferrin Ultra to their diet.
Adults: Add one teaspoon to your favorite beverage for once a day or as recommended by a health care professional. Stir with a spoon for 30 seconds.
