Jing Herbs - Epimedium extract powder (horny goat weed) 50g
£25.00
Epimedium, also known as "Horny Goat Weed," is widely considered to be a powerful aphrodisiac. It gets its nickname from the observation that goats, after consuming this herb, begin to copulate. Epimedium tonifies Kidney Yang and has the ability to strengthen the bones and structural system of the body, including the joints, lower back, and knees.
According to the "Classis of Materia Medica," Epimedium can help with "old-age confusion and middle-age forgetfullness." Other ancient classics have stated that Epimedium "augments the essential qi, and is an herb of the arm and leg yang brightness, Triple BUrner, and gate of vitality. It is appropriate for those with insufficiency of true yan."
Epimedium has a dry and yin consuming nature, so when taking this herbs on a regular basis, it is best taken with yin replenishing herbs like He shou wu, Lycium, and Rehmannia. Restore the Yin is also an appropriate formula to take in conjunction with Epimedium.

Jing Herbs - Morinda extract powder 50g
£25.00
Morinda root is a Yang tonic that tonifies the Kidney Jing and all creative energies. This herb is very beneficial for athletes of all levels since it promotes the strength of the bones and skeletal system allowing for strong anchorage of tendons and muscles. Morinda is powerful without being drying in nature, and its tonification is achieved without cloying, thus making it suitable for everyone.
Morinda enters the Kidney channel thus augmenting the Yang energy, boosting the Jing essence, and strengthening the bones, tendons, and ligaments. One of the most outstanding qualities of this herb is that while possessing a Yang nature, it engenders a harmonious, but not drying, warmth. It is able to nourish the Kidney essence without drying the Kidney Yin.
Morinda also has a secondary function of augmenting the blood. Although this is a minor function, it supports the herb's moistening qualities by helping to create a Yin fluid.
Finally, because Morinda has an acrid element to it, coupled with its warming nature, it is able to expel wind and damp from the body. This function is particularly useful for people who may experience pain in the lower back and knees, and mild edema in the legs and ankles.

Health Interests
Ex. Gut Support, Probiotics, Digestive Aid
Not all probiotics are created equal. Body Ecology's Bifidus Power Blend has been carefully crafted to feature four probiotic strains of bifidobacteria. Bifidobacteria are native to the gut of a healthy, breastfed baby, but their numbers gradually decline as you age – and not without consequence!
An aging gut is at the root of chronic disease and recurring illness.
Good Health Begins at Birth
One month after birth, bifidobacteria dominate a healthy, breastfed baby's gut – making up as much as 91 percent of the microbes that live there.1 These good-for-you bacteria help to tone the gut barrier and cultivate a strong immune system. But unfortunately, not everyone starts out with a microbial ecosystem ruled by bifidobacteria.
There are a few factors that disrupt a baby's gut:
Premature birth
Cesarean section delivery
Use of baby formula
Antibiotic use
The bad news is that babies are born via C-section, fed formula, and given antibiotics on the regular. Chances are high that one of these happened in your own life when you were a baby. But at what cost?
While your own story is unique, science illuminates specific trends. For example – during infancy, bifidobacteria turn up the volume on one arm of your immune system, regulating its activity. Without high numbers of good bifidobacteria, your immune system falls out of balance. With this, your risk of inflammation, autoimmune disease, and eczema goes up.2
It turns out that in adults and babies alike, bifidobacteria can curb inflammatory signals that have spun out of control and have led to gastrointestinal distress.3
This includes:
Constipation
Diarrhea
Inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's and ulcerative colitis
Necrotizing enterocolitis (seen in babies)
Bifidobacteria are able to reduce intestinal permeability and seal a leaky gut.* They take control of the inner ecosystem and push the bad bacteria bullies out. 4
Time Is Not on Your Side
If you were breastfed as a baby, special sugars in breast milk made sure your baby ecosystem was thriving with plenty of bifidobacteria. However, as you move into adulthood, your bifidobacteria decline. Under the right circumstances, this is okay – you want diversity and a healthy mix of microbes. But if a drop in healthy tribes of good bacteria involves antibiotics or a diet filled with processed foods, this can impact your overall immune health.
Remember, bifidobacteria fight inflammation and keep the gut healthy. They're essential in warding off infection and may even protect against the development of disease. This is but one reason why probiotics become increasingly important with each passing year. As you age, a high-quality probiotic like the Bifidus Power Blend can support both your immune system and your digestion.
When the Bifidus Power Blend becomes a regular part of your day, you'll have the support you need to fight off infections and clean up cellular waste. You can rest assured that the Bifidus Power Blend has been expertly formulated to include only the very best probiotic strains for your health.
Trust Your Gut Feeling
As the Principle of Uniqueness reminds us, you know your body, and if you listen close enough, you will intuitively understand what your body needs to function at its best. Relying on this natural "gut feeling" to nurture and improve your health is not to be underestimated. If you have digestive issues, large or small, or if you find yourself dragging through your day more often than you used to, a daily probiotic can help to correct your course.
In our specially formulated Bifidus Power Blend, you'll find:
Bifidobacterium longum (UABl-14) - Research shows that B. longum can reduce cholesterol, promote weight loss, and relieve constipation.5 In older adults, B. longum minimizes flu and cold-like symptoms – such as fatigue, headache, and runny nose.6 In 2011, scientists found that B. longum could reduce anxiety by way of the gut-brain axis.7
Bifidobacterium bifidum (UABb-10) - Like its bifidobacteria friends, B. bifidum reduces markers of inflammation. 8 One study published in 2011 even found that a probiotic containing only B. bifidum was enough to significantly improve signs of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), such as bloating, abdominal pain, and gas. 9Research shows that B. bifidum (along with B. lactis and Lactobacillus acidophilus) can safeguard against eczema when taken in the third trimester of pregnancy.10 And because bifidobacteria levels decrease with age – increasing your risk of infection – researchers found that supplementing with B. bifidum helps to rebuild the inner ecosystem, even after supplementation has ended. 11
Bifidobacterium breve (Bb-03) - In children with constipation, B. breve increases bowel movements, softens stool, and reduces pain related to constipation.12 In animal studies, researchers found that B. breve suppresses weight gain, improving both cholesterol and blood sugar.13 Other research published in 2015 shows that a probiotic blend of Lactobacillus rhamnosous and B. breve might have an anti-inflammatory effect in cigarette smokers.14
Bifidobacteria infantis (Bi-26) - In 2013, researchers looked closely at the impact of B. infantis on inflammatory disorders that manifested within the gut or outside the gut. Patients had been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, or chronic fatigue syndrome. In all cases, B. infantis has the ability to trim down inflammatory markers.15 In those with celiac disease who are still consuming gluten, B. infantis reduces inflammatory markers as well as indigestion, reflux, and constipation.16
The importance of a healthy gut, and how gut health can affect all areas of your life, can't be overstated. Grasping this truth — that the gut is the source — can bring about an empowering and often radical change.
"You have control over what is happening in your gut. The microbiome is evolving every minute, and it's easily manipulated," says Donna Gates, gut health pioneer and creator of The Body Ecology Diet. "People have said for a long time that disease begins in the gut. Of course, health begins there as well. That's very important to understand because you can fix your gut, and when you do, then you can radiate health. This is always the first place to start: Fix your gut."

Living Libations
Living Libations Truth Tooth Powder Polish 100ml
£63.00
Quick Overview
Exfoliating and brightening: Miracle Salt™, Sodium Bicarbonate, Magnesium Bicarbonate, Arrowroot and MSM. On a dry brush, add a pinch of powder with a tiny drop of Neem Enamelizer and if desired a drop of Yogi Tooth Serum, or Healthy Gum Drops. Tip: Really great on a dry round-head electrical tooth brush
Baking Soda, Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, or bicarbonate of soda, is a naturally occurring substance in the human body and found dissolved in numerous mineral springs. Among other metabolic functions, bicarbonate in saliva buffers and neutralizes plaque acids. In addition to being an effective cleaning polish, baking soda is gentle. It has significantly lower abrasiveness than the cleaning agents of chalk and silica that are used in commercial toothpastes, and the baking soda’s natural alkalinity neutralizes bacterial acidity.
Baking soda has been used as a tooth paste for centuries and is often combined with sea salt. Recommended by Dr. Hulda Clark, dentist Robert Nara, and Edgar Cayce as an effective tooth polish. Dr. Paul H. Keyes D.D.S., clinical investigator at the National Institute of Dental Research, advised regular brushing with salt and/or baking soda, as it prevents all destructive periodontal (gum) disease. Dr. Keyes states “Over the years when I was lecturing, I asked thousands of dentists and hygienists to raise their hands if they had ever seen destructive periodontal disease in person[s] who had regularly brushed with salt and/or [baking] soda. I have never seen a hand! And although I have not seen many such cases, the periodontal health in these patients has always been excellent”.
Use : Place a pinch on a dry toothbrush along with a tiny drop of Neem Enamelizer. You can also add a drop of Yogi Tooth Serum or Healthy Gum Drops for an extra burst of fresh, plant power. For an even more invigorating impact, use Tooth Truth Powder with a dry round-head electrical toothbrush. Safe to use every day.
Organic Ingredients: Sodium chloride (Sea Salt), Sodium Bicarbonate, Magnesium Bicarbonate, Maranta arundinacea (Arrowroot), and MSM.
Sea Salt (Sodium chloride) - Purified sea salt is rich in trace minerals. Sea salt is historically known to soothe gums and alkalinize saliva for a happy oral environment.
Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) - Teeth thrive when they are bathed in a sea of sweet saliva, and baking soda buffers and neutralizes food acids. In addition to being an effective cleaning polish, baking soda is gentle. It has significantly lower abrasiveness than the cleaning agents of chalk and silica that are used in commercial toothpastes, and the baking soda’s natural alkalinity neutralizes bacterial acidity.
Magnesium Bicarbonate - This naturally occurring compound has been historically used to prevent deposits on the teeth. It is also said to help eliminate plaque while brushing, and it whitens the teeth.
Arrowroot (Maranta arundinacea) - Arrowroot is traditionally used to alkalinize saliva as a natural tooth polish.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) – MSM is a biologically-active organic compound that is a source of sulfur. This naturally occurring sulfur is found in nature and all living organisms. It is a critical nutrient for the human body.
Review(s)
pearly whites
This is the best tooth polish I've ever used. I use this along with all the Living Libations dentistry products, which are phenomenal. I feel like I have the cleanest whitest teeth in the world. Based on the compliments I've gotten from my dentist, it might be true :)
Sovereign Labs
Sovereign Labs - Colostrum LD® Vanilla Powder - 32 oz. (907 grams)
£154.95
Sovereign Labs - Colostrum LD® Vanilla Powder - 32 oz. (907 grams)
32 oz. colostrum powder
Colostrum-LD® is the only substance clinically proven to heal and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome.
Most physicians agree that Leaky Gut Syndrome is a primary cause of chronic disease.
The LD Difference: Colostrum-LD® remains biologically active at the cellular level with maximal effectiveness (up to 4X more effective than regular colostrum).
Colostrum-LD® is the only colostrum certified to contain a minimum of 25-30% Immunoglobulins, 1.5% Lactoferrin, 1.5% Growth Factors and 4.5-5% PRPs (colostrum’s most powerful bioactive component).
Sovereign Laboratories takes a great product (colostrum) and makes it a superior product (Colostrum-LD®). Our proprietary in-house Liposomal Delivery (LD) system is an applied coating which allows colostrum to readily dissolve in liquids and ensures the colostrum will bypass digestion; will be transported through the bowel wall; will circulate throughout the body; will reach the organs and cells; and remain bioavailable at the cellular level. “Liposomal Delivery makes colostrum (and other nutrients) up to 1,500 % more bioavailable” (Robert R. Milne, MD); this makes Colostrum-LD® the most effective colostrum available. Without LD, colostrum loses most of its effectiveness. The LD Difference means that colostrum products from Sovereign Laboratories do what they say. Sovereign Laboratories stands behind its money back guarantee.
Expect Results:
Colostrum does not oxidize in storage.
Colostrum is not digested (digestion destroys colostrum’s bioactivity).
Colostrum components are delivered through the bowel wall into the blood stream to reach all organs and cells wherever needed.
Colostrum components transport through the cell wall to assist in RNA and DNA repair; stem cell initiation and differentiation; facilitation of cellular growth and repair; infection prevention; and identification of damaged and diseased cells.
COLOSTRUM-LD® has been shown to help:
Boost, balance, and maintain unsurpassed immune function
Eliminate harmful pathogens and fight infection
Prevent and eliminate diarrhea from infectious causes
Suppress over-reactivity to environmental pathogens and toxins
Protect and heal GI and stomach lining (Leaky Gut Syndrome)
Increase Natural Killer (NK) cell activity
Increase muscle strength and stamina; speed recovery after exercise or injury; burn fat; and maintain blood glucose homeostasis
Provide anti-aging benefits
Effective Use
Colostrum is a food, not a drug or medicine. It is safe, non-toxic, non-allergenic and has no side effects.
Bovine Colostrum is safe, non-toxic and can be consumed in any quantity without side effects or drug interactions. It contains special enzymes that prevent its immune and growth factors from being digested. An article written by Robert Preston, ND, President of the International Institute of Nutritional Research, states, "Bovine colostrum is safe. Colostrum contains an unprecedented combination of nutritional factors with which to fortify the immune system. It is so harmless, it has been prepared by Nature as the first food for infants, intended as their total diet for the first 24 hours." He further states, "It would be hard to imagine any nutritional substance more natural or beneficial than colostrum. It is safe for internal consumption by children, adults and animals."
How much should be taken and how often?
You should take enough colostrum to obtain results you desire; this amount varies from person to person. If you are not seeing results with colostrum, you are not taking enough. For healthy adults who want to maintain a healthy immune system and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome, 2 capsules (or 1 teaspoon powder) twice daily are recommended. For anyone whose has compromised health situation, GI or digestive health issues, auto-immune conditions, inflammatory conditions, cancer, heart disease, is recovering from an injury, wants to get rid of allergies, or detects a cold or flu coming on, 4 capsules (1 tablespoon powder) twice a day are recommended. For athletic use and anti-aging, 10-20 grams daily optimizes growth hormone levels which translates to 2 heaping tablespoons of powder twice a day.
The dosage can then be lessened to a maintenance level as long as it continues to produce results. Colostrum has a sixteen hour half-life. It should be taken twice a day on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. Colostrum's benefits are cumulative. The longer and more consistent the use, the greater the benefits.
Most people feel better right away, yet about one in five first-time users experience a detox event or "healing crisis," consisting of flu-like symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache coughing up phlegm, skin rashes and low-grade fever. These are called Herxheimer reactions and typically last only a couple of days. The body is ridding itself of long-accumulated toxins, locked in the body's tissues and fat deposits that have suppressed the immune system and encouraged disease. This is normal, and not a reason to stop taking colostrum. You should reduce your dosage to a minimum amount (one capsule per day, or 1/2 teaspoon) until the body adjusts, and then increase your dosage as desired to achieve optimal results.
Colostrum is not just for adults, and remarkable results have been observed in infants and children. Colostrum's test is in the undeniable health of children who receive colostrum and breast milk from their mothers. These children experience less illness, increased mental acuity and have stronger, more vibrant growth. If infants are not breastfed or not breastfed for at least two years, colostrum supplementation is an option. Because children have a tendency to catch colds and illness from peers in daycare and school, colostrum supplementation in these situations will help immensely. Colostrum powder tastes great and is advisable for children who are unable to swallow colostrum capsules.
We can't forget our beloved pets. Veterinary use of bovine colostrum with aging and/or ailing animals (mammals) has proven to be very beneficial. Its ability to halt disease is well documented; aging pets with arthritis or joint problems are particularly responsive to colostrum. And most pets love the taste of colostrum.
It’s important for each one of us to take responsibility for our own health. Like the “Sovereign” in our company name, we believe in individuals taking “sovereign” charge of their health and well-being. If you are convinced by claims, testimonials, or even research stating that a product will stop disease, you must make certain that there is also supporting research showing that the product does not destroy body tissue, interact with other drugs or supplements, or create harmful side effects in the process. Colostrum-LD® is the only clinically proven substance which heals and prevents Leaky Gut Syndrome and does not cause harm to the body.
Effectiveness of Colostrum
This depends on its quality and how it is processed!
Research has shown that colostrum which is water-soluble is more easily assimilated. If you are taking colostrum which is only partially soluble, you will not get the full benefits. Colostrum which has been frozen cannot be made water soluble and it must be specially micronized in order to be soluble. Simply empty a capsule into a glass of water, cover and shake. It should dissolve quickly.
Tests on several different brands of colostrum have shown that colostrum processed with excessive heat will lose most of its biological activity. This is especially true of colostrum tablets. The heat generated when tablets are formed is so high that it severely compromises colostrum's efficacy.
Colostrum that comes from pasture fed herds, who eat healthy green grass produce better milk and colostrum than cows that are fed processed foods.
It is also very important that colostrum is standardized by taking it from large numbers of healthy cows. This insures the maximum possible amount of immune factors. Colostrum that is not standardized should be avoided.
Some colostrum is manipulated to boost immunoglobulin levels. Recent research, however, has shown that higher percentages of immunoglobulin actually diminish colostrum's effectiveness in combating infection. Therefore, our conclusion is that the most effective colostrum is that which is gently processed, but otherwise left with the balance of its immune and growth factors as nature intended.
Let the Buyer Beware!
Not all colostrum is processed in accordance with these strict guidelines.
Currently no standards exist for the collection and processing of colostrum. Some colostrum contains inexpensive "filler" products such as whey by-products, which severely reduce its effectiveness. Also, if the colostrum is not collected during the first 24 hours after the birth of the calf, it will be missing many of the important growth factors.
To help you assess different brands of colostrum, below is a summary of the standard you should look for in high quality colostrum:
It should be full water-soluble.
It should come only from certified healthy, grade A diary cows (after the needs of the calf are met).
It should be collected only from the first milking after the second birth, to ensure maximum biological activity.
It should come only from cows which are pasture-fed, and certified to be hormone, pesticide and antibiotic free.
It should be filtered and homogenized to break down the long-chain proteins (immunoglobulins) for better assimilation.
It should be mixed with the colostrum from thousands of other cows to standardize and maximize the immune factors.
It should be processed to remove excess, unwanted fat, and dried with added heat. This process is significantly more costly and time-consuming than regular high-temperature processing.
It should be laboratory tested for E.Coli, salmonella, pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics, other pathogens, a verification of high platelet count (a sign of active "friendly" intestinal bacteria) and immunoglobulin content.
There are only a few producers of bovine colostrum which meet the above standards. Read labels carefully and investigate the company. Another way to find a high-quality colostrum is to contact the Center for Nutritional Research (CNR), www.icnr.org, an independent, non-profit research organization. The CNR can provide, free of charge, a list of manufacturers whose colostrum meets our guidelines.
Benefits of Colostrum LD
Purpose: This is life's first food. It was designed by nature to bring perfect health. It was and is the most important GI health combination of powerful healing and immune components ever; or it would not have been your first meal.
Prevents and heals gut permeability (holes in our gut) caused by toxins, pathogens (bacteria), acidic drinks, pain medications and pharmaceuticals and environmental hazards. (The primary cause of chronic disease)
Helps prevent toxins from entering the body
Repairs, optimizes and activates immune function (especially in the GI tract)
Stimulates the repair and regeneration of all body tissue and enhances cellular communication and nutritional intake
Increases energy and stamina, lean muscle mass, activates fat metabolism, and returns our body to vibrant health
The most important food for health and healing or your first meal would have been something else!
Fountain Of Youth
The New England Journal of Medicine (the most prestigious medical journal in the world) reported that the most effective means to stop or slow the aging process would be to replace the hormonal factors that cause us to grow normal cellular structures in the body. After maturity (between the ages of 16-20), the level of growth hormone that our body naturally produces dwindles. We notice this as gravity, unmercifully, takes its toll. Our bodies lose muscle tone and elasticity of the skin, causing us to sag and wrinkle. We lose bone mass and shrink, while our hands, feet, nose and ears get larger. We would all do almost anything to stop this aging process but we may want to think twice before we consider isolated hormone replacement sources and are not identical to the hormones made by the body. Synthesized and isolated hormones can produce body imbalances and side effects that can be life threatening!
There is another answer. A natural answer. Colostrum's perfectly balanced combination of immune and growth factors, administered in human clinical trials with aged subjects, safely increases lgF-1 to pre-puberty levels, producing increased muscle weight and strength. IfF-1 and GH in colostrum also has been shown to tone muscles, melt body fat, return elasticity to the skin and increase bone density. Colostrum, life's first food, has given those of use that are growing older, real hope that there may be a Fountain of Youth after all!
Everything in life springs forth from DNA - flesh, bones, hormones, nervous system, a baby's first word, the euphoria that comes with first love, the ability to learn to speak a foreign language. All of this originates from DNA. This silent intelligence of life, DNA, attracts the chemicals it needs to form new DNA which is an essential part of cell division. DNA is also able to manufacture RNA, which is nearly identical to DNA and participates as its active counterpart. RNA (the active intelligence) is the traveler sent to produce the proteins needed to build and repair the body. Dr. Benjamin Frank, whose research on youth and aging, showed RNA to be one of our most critical anti-aging factors. His research showed that lgf-1 (found naturally in colostrum) is one of the only substances known to stimulate the growth and repair of these key nucleic acids, DNA and RNA.
Colostrum has been shown to help maintain blood glucose levels to serve the brain. Also, IgF-1 and GF, some of the smallest particles known, have been shown to cross the blood brain barrier to help with nerve synapses in the brain, enhancing mental acuity and increasing serotonin levels, to brighten our moods. And just possibly, as we age, this might be one of the most important reasons to take a serious look at colostrum.
The aging process is accelerated if our natural immune defenses are depleted through infection and toxic assault. Colostrum can help by strengthening and modulating our immune function. Colostrum’s unique immune and growth factors cannot be obtained through an other source. It is unequaled in stimulating cellular growth and repair and promoting optimal immune function. It can best be summed up by a statement about colostrum from the world’s leading medical anthropologist and New York Times best selling medical author: Robert Heinerman, PhD “No greater promise of health can be made for a natural product so beloved as this. It can be truthfully said that colostrum nicely maintains the physical elegance of life, which believe it or not, also happens to be its meaning as well.”

Chaga (Latin name - Inonotus Obliquus)
Chaga grows in the circumpolar region of the world, in the Northern hemisphere of our planet growing in deciduous forests where birch trees are exposed to harsh weather conditions. Although Chaga mainly grows on birch trees, it can also grow on alder, ash, beech, elm, and can even grow on apple trees. As Chaga grows on the birch tree, this growth feeds on the nutrients and compounds found in the birch tree, concentrating the environmental energy that is extremely potent, in a form more readily available to humans.In Siberian Shamanism Chaga is known as the "king of the mushrooms." Throughout history, Chaga has been most widely consumed in tea form. In Siberia, regular consumption of Chaga prevented the onset of degenerative disease. Other Nutrients:Protein-bound xylogalactoglucans.Polyphenols, sterols, lanosterols/ergosterols, inotodiols, triterpenoidal saonins,melanin, betulin/betulinic acid, lupeol, , copper, germanium.Chaga contains 215 phytonutrients including 29 polysaccharide or beta glucan derivatives.Trace minerals:Barium, bismuth, boron, chromium, copper, germanium, manganese, selenium, zinc.Major minerals:Calcium, cesium, iron, magnesium,phosphorus,potassium, rubidium, silicon, sulphur, vitamins B2, D2, dietary fiber and amino acids complexes.DISCLAIMER: all information is for educational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice, diagnosis or prescription.

Sovereign Labs - Colostrum LD® Orange Powder - 12 oz. (340 grams)
£65.95
Sovereign Labs - Colostrum LD® Orange Powder - 12 oz. (340 grams)
12 oz. colostrum powder
Colostrum-LD® is the only substance clinically proven to heal and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome.
Most physicians agree that Leaky Gut Syndrome is a primary cause of chronic disease.
The LD Difference: Colostrum-LD® remains biologically active at the cellular level with maximal effectiveness (up to 4X more effective than regular colostrum).
Colostrum-LD® is the only colostrum certified to contain a minimum of 25-30% Immunoglobulins, 1.5% Lactoferrin, 1.5% Growth Factors and 4.5-5% PRPs (colostrum’s most powerful bioactive component).
Sovereign Laboratories takes a great product (colostrum) and makes it a superior product (Colostrum-LD®). Our proprietary in-house Liposomal Delivery (LD) system is an applied coating which allows colostrum to readily dissolve in liquids and ensures the colostrum will bypass digestion; will be transported through the bowel wall; will circulate throughout the body; will reach the organs and cells; and remain bioavailable at the cellular level. “Liposomal Delivery makes colostrum (and other nutrients) up to 1,500 % more bioavailable” (Robert R. Milne, MD); this makes Colostrum-LD® the most effective colostrum available. Without LD, colostrum loses most of its effectiveness. The LD Difference means that colostrum products from Sovereign Laboratories do what they say. Sovereign Laboratories stands behind its money back guarantee.
Expect Results:
Colostrum does not oxidize in storage.
Colostrum is not digested (digestion destroys colostrum’s bioactivity).
Colostrum components are delivered through the bowel wall into the blood stream to reach all organs and cells wherever needed.
Colostrum components transport through the cell wall to assist in RNA and DNA repair; stem cell initiation and differentiation; facilitation of cellular growth and repair; infection prevention; and identification of damaged and diseased cells.
COLOSTRUM-LD® has been shown to help:
Boost, balance, and maintain unsurpassed immune function
Eliminate harmful pathogens and fight infection
Prevent and eliminate diarrhea from infectious causes
Suppress over-reactivity to environmental pathogens and toxins
Protect and heal GI and stomach lining (Leaky Gut Syndrome)
Increase Natural Killer (NK) cell activity
Increase muscle strength and stamina; speed recovery after exercise or injury; burn fat; and maintain blood glucose homeostasis
Provide anti-aging benefits
Effective Use
Colostrum is a food, not a drug or medicine. It is safe, non-toxic, non-allergenic and has no side effects.
Bovine Colostrum is safe, non-toxic and can be consumed in any quantity without side effects or drug interactions. It contains special enzymes that prevent its immune and growth factors from being digested. An article written by Robert Preston, ND, President of the International Institute of Nutritional Research, states, "Bovine colostrum is safe. Colostrum contains an unprecedented combination of nutritional factors with which to fortify the immune system. It is so harmless, it has been prepared by Nature as the first food for infants, intended as their total diet for the first 24 hours." He further states, "It would be hard to imagine any nutritional substance more natural or beneficial than colostrum. It is safe for internal consumption by children, adults and animals."
How much should be taken and how often?
You should take enough colostrum to obtain results you desire; this amount varies from person to person. If you are not seeing results with colostrum, you are not taking enough. For healthy adults who want to maintain a healthy immune system and prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome, 2 capsules (or 1 teaspoon powder) twice daily are recommended. For anyone whose has compromised health situation, GI or digestive health issues, auto-immune conditions, inflammatory conditions, cancer, heart disease, is recovering from an injury, wants to get rid of allergies, or detects a cold or flu coming on, 4 capsules (1 tablespoon powder) twice a day are recommended. For athletic use and anti-aging, 10-20 grams daily optimizes growth hormone levels which translates to 2 heaping tablespoons of powder twice a day.
The dosage can then be lessened to a maintenance level as long as it continues to produce results. Colostrum has a sixteen hour half-life. It should be taken twice a day on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. Colostrum's benefits are cumulative. The longer and more consistent the use, the greater the benefits.
Most people feel better right away, yet about one in five first-time users experience a detox event or "healing crisis," consisting of flu-like symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache coughing up phlegm, skin rashes and low-grade fever. These are called Herxheimer reactions and typically last only a couple of days. The body is ridding itself of long-accumulated toxins, locked in the body's tissues and fat deposits that have suppressed the immune system and encouraged disease. This is normal, and not a reason to stop taking colostrum. You should reduce your dosage to a minimum amount (one capsule per day, or 1/2 teaspoon) until the body adjusts, and then increase your dosage as desired to achieve optimal results.
Colostrum is not just for adults, and remarkable results have been observed in infants and children. Colostrum's test is in the undeniable health of children who receive colostrum and breast milk from their mothers. These children experience less illness, increased mental acuity and have stronger, more vibrant growth. If infants are not breastfed or not breastfed for at least two years, colostrum supplementation is an option. Because children have a tendency to catch colds and illness from peers in daycare and school, colostrum supplementation in these situations will help immensely. Colostrum powder tastes great and is advisable for children who are unable to swallow colostrum capsules.
We can't forget our beloved pets. Veterinary use of bovine colostrum with aging and/or ailing animals (mammals) has proven to be very beneficial. Its ability to halt disease is well documented; aging pets with arthritis or joint problems are particularly responsive to colostrum. And most pets love the taste of colostrum.
It’s important for each one of us to take responsibility for our own health. Like the “Sovereign” in our company name, we believe in individuals taking “sovereign” charge of their health and well-being. If you are convinced by claims, testimonials, or even research stating that a product will stop disease, you must make certain that there is also supporting research showing that the product does not destroy body tissue, interact with other drugs or supplements, or create harmful side effects in the process. Colostrum-LD® is the only clinically proven substance which heals and prevents Leaky Gut Syndrome and does not cause harm to the body.
Effectiveness of Colostrum
This depends on its quality and how it is processed!
Research has shown that colostrum which is water-soluble is more easily assimilated. If you are taking colostrum which is only partially soluble, you will not get the full benefits. Colostrum which has been frozen cannot be made water soluble and it must be specially micronized in order to be soluble. Simply empty a capsule into a glass of water, cover and shake. It should dissolve quickly.
Tests on several different brands of colostrum have shown that colostrum processed with excessive heat will lose most of its biological activity. This is especially true of colostrum tablets. The heat generated when tablets are formed is so high that it severely compromises colostrum's efficacy.
Colostrum that comes from pasture fed herds, who eat healthy green grass produce better milk and colostrum than cows that are fed processed foods.
It is also very important that colostrum is standardized by taking it from large numbers of healthy cows. This insures the maximum possible amount of immune factors. Colostrum that is not standardized should be avoided.
Some colostrum is manipulated to boost immunoglobulin levels. Recent research, however, has shown that higher percentages of immunoglobulin actually diminish colostrum's effectiveness in combating infection. Therefore, our conclusion is that the most effective colostrum is that which is gently processed, but otherwise left with the balance of its immune and growth factors as nature intended.
Let the Buyer Beware!
Not all colostrum is processed in accordance with these strict guidelines.
Currently no standards exist for the collection and processing of colostrum. Some colostrum contains inexpensive "filler" products such as whey by-products, which severely reduce its effectiveness. Also, if the colostrum is not collected during the first 24 hours after the birth of the calf, it will be missing many of the important growth factors.
To help you assess different brands of colostrum, below is a summary of the standard you should look for in high quality colostrum:
It should be full water-soluble.
It should come only from certified healthy, grade A diary cows (after the needs of the calf are met).
It should be collected only from the first milking after the second birth, to ensure maximum biological activity.
It should come only from cows which are pasture-fed, and certified to be hormone, pesticide and antibiotic free.
It should be filtered and homogenized to break down the long-chain proteins (immunoglobulins) for better assimilation.
It should be mixed with the colostrum from thousands of other cows to standardize and maximize the immune factors.
It should be processed to remove excess, unwanted fat, and dried with added heat. This process is significantly more costly and time-consuming than regular high-temperature processing.
It should be laboratory tested for E.Coli, salmonella, pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics, other pathogens, a verification of high platelet count (a sign of active "friendly" intestinal bacteria) and immunoglobulin content.
There are only a few producers of bovine colostrum which meet the above standards. Read labels carefully and investigate the company. Another way to find a high-quality colostrum is to contact the Center for Nutritional Research (CNR), www.icnr.org, an independent, non-profit research organization. The CNR can provide, free of charge, a list of manufacturers whose colostrum meets our guidelines.
Benefits of Colostrum LD
Purpose: This is life's first food. It was designed by nature to bring perfect health. It was and is the most important GI health combination of powerful healing and immune components ever; or it would not have been your first meal.

Helps prevent toxins from entering the body
Repairs, optimizes and activates immune function (especially in the GI tract)
Stimulates the repair and regeneration of all body tissue and enhances cellular communication and nutritional intake
Increases energy and stamina, lean muscle mass, activates fat metabolism, and returns our body to vibrant health
The most important food for health and healing or your first meal would have been something else!
Fountain Of Youth
The New England Journal of Medicine (the most prestigious medical journal in the world) reported that the most effective means to stop or slow the aging process would be to replace the hormonal factors that cause us to grow normal cellular structures in the body. After maturity (between the ages of 16-20), the level of growth hormone that our body naturally produces dwindles. We notice this as gravity, unmercifully, takes its toll. Our bodies lose muscle tone and elasticity of the skin, causing us to sag and wrinkle. We lose bone mass and shrink, while our hands, feet, nose and ears get larger. We would all do almost anything to stop this aging process but we may want to think twice before we consider isolated hormone replacement sources and are not identical to the hormones made by the body. Synthesized and isolated hormones can produce body imbalances and side effects that can be life threatening!
There is another answer. A natural answer. Colostrum's perfectly balanced combination of immune and growth factors, administered in human clinical trials with aged subjects, safely increases lgF-1 to pre-puberty levels, producing increased muscle weight and strength. IfF-1 and GH in colostrum also has been shown to tone muscles, melt body fat, return elasticity to the skin and increase bone density. Colostrum, life's first food, has given those of use that are growing older, real hope that there may be a Fountain of Youth after all!
