A Quick Guide to Using Orgain ColostrumUpdated 2 hours ago

What is Colostrum?  

Colostrum is the nutrient-rich first milk produced by mammals, including cows, in the days right after birth. It is nature's first form of nourishment, concentrated with naturally occurring bioactive compounds made to support life's earliest moments. Colostrum supplementation can be incorporated into your daily wellness routine to support immune and gut health.  

How Does Colostrum Support Immune + Gut Health? 

Bovine colostrum contains naturally occurring bioactive compounds, including IgG, that have been studied for their role in supporting gut barrier integrity. Because approximately 70% of our immune system resides in our gut(1), maintaining a healthy gut barrier is an important component of normal immune function. A healthy gut barrier helps regulate what passes across the intestinal lining, allowing nutrients to be absorbed while supporting the gut's natural barrier function.  

What Makes Orgain Colostrum Different? 

Orgain Colostrum is made with a short, clean ingredient list and nothing you do not need. Every serving delivers: 

  • 2g bovine colostrum per serving 
  • Calf-First Promise
  • Colostrum sourced in the USA 
  • No Additives 
  • Gluten Free
  • Made with No Soy Ingredients 
  • No Added Sugars 
  • No Artificial Colors or Flavors 
  • Unflavored 
  • Dissolves Easily 

Orgain Colostrum starts with the same quality-first approach you have come to expect from us, beginning with where we source it. Our bovine colostrum comes from U.S.-based dairy farms committed to a Calf-First Promise, which means newborn calves receive their essential first milk immediately after birth. Only after the calves are nourished is any surplus colostrum collected for supplement use. 

How Do You Use Orgain Colostrum? 

Mixing
Orgain Colostrum is unflavored and dissolves easily into cold foods and beverages, making it a seamless addition to your wellness routine. Simply mix one scoop into water, smoothies, yogurt, iced coffee, iced tea, electrolyte drinks, or your favorite cold food or beverage.  

Avoid heat. For best results, mix Orgain Colostrum into cold or room-temperature foods and beverages only. Heat can affect colostrum's naturally occurring bioactive compounds, so avoid adding it to hot coffee, hot tea, or cooked recipes. 

Tip: mix colostrum with liquid prior to adding ice! 

Daily serving
While there is no established standard dosage for colostrum, we recommend one serving (2 grams) daily to support gut and immune health.† If you have any health conditions, sensitivities, or specific wellness goals, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider to determine the amount that is right for you.

Timing
You can take Orgain Colostrum any time of day. The best time is simply the time you'll be most consistent with your routine.
