Antioxidants and Anti-aging
Are antioxidants the fountain of youth? That question remains debatable, but it is known that oxidative stress and high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), by-products of normal metabolism which build up in the body, can cause widespread damage and increase the aging process. Colostrum contains antioxidants and the precursors to glutathione (the most powerful antioxidant known) which help clean up these pollutants from the body and reverse the damage they do to the body.

Oxidation by-products of metabolism cause extensive damage to DNA, proteins and lipids, which ultimately results in aging, cancer and other degenerative diseases.

Chronic oxidative stress can accelerate cell senescence in human endothelial cells.

Colostrum is rich in antioxidants, including glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant known, and its precursors.

Colostrum reduces ferricytochrome C and suppresses myeloperoxidase and lysozyme activity in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), activities which are important in the mediation of acute inflammatio.

PRP turns down lipid peroxidation, reducing the amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells.

Lactoferrin acts as an antioxidant in the gut.
