SGD Australian Bio Colostrum capsules are everything a colostrum supplement should be.
They have a simple philosophy which is to create the best colostrum in the world. They are based in South Gippsland, the heart of Australia’s clean, green dairy industry. They are a family-owned and run business that started by collecting colostrum from their own farm.
The best colostrum comes from 100% grass-fed and finished cows. Unfortunately, a lot of colostrum is made from cows that are fed significant amounts of grains. By having a relationship with each farm they source from, SGD knows exactly how the cows are being raised and what they are fed.
Their colostrum is collected from cows that are raised and fed on grass pastures year-round, enabling them to gain natural immunity from all seasons and their natural environment. Colostrum is not collected off intensive feedlot farms.
Colostrum should be collected in the first 8-12 hours when the concentration of beneficial nutrients and compounds is at its highest. After that, amounts begin to decline.
Collecting it at the right time is critical to getting the best and most effective colostrum. Many companies buy colostrum collected much later in the process because it is significantly less expensive but will not be as beneficial. Many companies have even begun producing colostrum products from milk collected many days after, which will have virtually no benefit but is very profitable. SGD only uses 8-12 hour colostrum and only takes what the calves do not need, ensuring they get all that they need to be healthy.
Colostrum should be golden yellow in color, not white. A lot of colostrum products are refined, made from milk collected far too late, or improperly dried, leading to a loss of beneficial compounds in it. If your colostrum is white, it's not made right! SGD Colostrum is beautiful golden yellow color.
Many of the important compounds in colostrum are fragile. They need to be gently dried and processed in order to prevent them from being degraded. Unfortunately, nearly all colostrum is high-heat spray dried, which can damage or denature them. SGD colostrum is gently freeze-dried to preserve the full range of beneficial compounds.
While lots of companies advertise that their colostrum is defatted and has casein removed, it's actually a bad thing. The fats in Colostrum contain beneficial nutrients and compounds. You want full-fat colostrum, not de-fatted Colostrum. The casein plays an important role in protecting the compounds in colostrum, allowing them to be delivered where they are needed most.
SGD Colostrum is truly farm-to-table. It comes from their farms to ensure that only the best Colostrum is collected. All products can be traced back to the farm of origin and are quality controlled for each cow. South Gippsland Dairy does not blend or import Colostrum from outside sources into their products. It is hand harvested from a very small and select number of family farms. By harvesting this way, local farmers get both the benefit of their production and in return can meticulously collect the excess Colostrum. The high levels of antibodies and growth factors in their products occur naturally and are balanced by nature. They do not standardize or alter the amounts of any compound.
They are one of only a handful of companies that produce their own colostrum. They built their plant from the ground up to specialize in the proper production of Colostrum. It was not a side project added on later. There is no membrane processing done, which can alter important compounds.
How to use: Colostrum is best taken apart from meals. Take two grams or capsules per day or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. The powder should be mixed into cold beverages or foods like applesauce and yogurt.
