What is in Colostrum?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 2 capsules. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | less than 1 g | ||
| Colostrumas Bovine Pre-Milk | 1,000 mg | Higher than 56% of 216 products listing colostrum (median 800 mg). | |
| Immunoglobulinsas IgG | 200 mg | 76% of 129 products listing immunoglobulin give more (median 975 mg). | |
| Proline-rich Polypeptides | 150 mg | ||
| Lactoferrin | 5 mg | 95% of 105 products listing lactoferrin give more (median 50 mg). |

Is that a lot?

- 95% of the 105 products that print an amount of lactoferrin list more than its 5 mg of lactoferrin (median 50 mg).
The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
