Product Description

What Is Lactoferrin?

Lactoferrin is glycoprotein that is synthesized (produced) within most mammals, including humans. The word ‘lactoferrin’ (‘lacto’ – means milk; ‘ferrin’ – means iron) denotes an iron-binding compound present in milk. However, Lactoferrin is known to bind several other metals including copper, zinc, manganese, and vanadium. Lactoferrin is produced within the body on a continuous basis. The average production and usage (the 'turnover') in a human adult is approximately 60 mg per day. Lactoferrin is found in breast milk and various bodily fluids. Lactoferrin is also present in the white blood cells (neutrophils) and is localized in several tissues.

How Does Lactoferrin Work?

Lactoferrin is a multi-functional protein that plays a role in several vital physiological processes in the body. As a metal binding protein, Lactoferrin promotes the bio-availability and absorption of iron and other trace metals. Lactoferrin is well documented for its role in reinforcing the immune system. Lactoferrin helps modulate the body's natural immune responses. Approximately 80% of the immune system is in the digestive tract, and Lactoferrin has also been demonstrated to play in important role in supporting digestive health. Finally, Lactoferrin promotes prebiotic activity. This molecule helps lay down the environment for the survival and growth of beneficial microflora (‘probiotics’) in the gut.  

Why Take Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®?

Due to abnormal diet, excessive stress, and/or exposure to a toxic environment, our innate reserves are often depleted faster than they are restored. As a result, we can end up with an imbalance or deficiency of Lactoferrin in the body. Simply drinking more dairy may not be enough. The typical concentration of Lactoferrin naturally present in pasteurized beverage milk is less than 0.1 g/kg; moreover, the heat affects the functionality of nutrients. Daily replenishment of Lactoferrin is one way that you can rest assured that your body is receiving adequate Lactoferrin.

Unlike many other Lactoferrin supplements extracted from whey or colostrum, Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® is derived from pure cow's milk. The milk is sourced from healthy cows living in a clean, natural environment, consuming a wholesome, nutritious diet. The protein is extracted proprietary freeze-drying technique (rather than heat) to ensure that the structure and functionality of the protein is preserved. It takes about 3 quarts of milk to produce a single capsule (containing 60 mg of Lactoferrin) of Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®. Finally, to ensure unrivaled purity, the lactoferrin in Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® undergoes patented three-step Treatment for Contaminant Reduction (TCR) process to enhance bioavailability and functionality.

Product Reviews

Ole Arne Eiksund
Executive, Marathon Runner

"As an active marathon and ultrarunner I use Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® daily as part of my supplement regime. My experience is that I get a better nutritional uptake during the races and recover faster. During active training periods or races, I increase the dosage as I need a higher dosage to replenish better. Recently, I competed 7 marathons in 7 days; by increasing lactoferrin dosage by 2 capsules prior to and 2 capsules after the race, worked very well for me!

I believe Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® helped me to preserve the health of the gastrointestinal system during such an exhausting challenge and the ability of Lactoferrin to enhance the body’s natural antioxidant response, is important when doing such endurance races."

Tim Bennet
Triathlete

"I have been using Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® for about 10 weeks now. At first, my stomach felt bloated and it was really quite hard to run with such a stomach. I thought that this was something that my body didn’t want. As an athlete, training has thought me that patience is necessary to achieve results. Rome was not built in a day… And certainly, after about 2 weeks the bloated stomach was gone. I train every day and run about 130 kilometers (80 miles) a week, and because of this, it is really important with optimisation in everything I do. Optimisation through food, food that the body is able to absorb and utilize effectively. Optimisation for me means that the body has a higher lowest threshold with regards to exercise and recovery.

Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® has been and is supporting me to keep my body on a more stable level continuously. I do not have any very bad workouts and the level of training is more stable. My body can recover faster, and I get perform better during training overall. With regards to competitions which demands a lot of the body, the difference is remarkable of what happens the day after a race. The wear is noticeably less than before and the long slow run the day after is easier than before – because of a more stabilized energy consumption curve. And when the wear is less, the immune system also gets better, definitely! And for me, who always wants to run the most, it means that using Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® that I can maintain and actually increase the training doses – at the same time get progress. At the age of 52, this is quite impressive."

"There passed those times when dietary supplements caused a sarcastic smile. Today all pharmacy chains offer domestic and foreign dietary supplements and vitamins. During the last 10 years I use nutrition, and the most favorite - Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®.

I was lucky to get acquainted with his creator - Dr. Narain Naidu - the scientist with the world name which united brilliant western education and wisdom of the East. His theory of Bio-replenishment teaches us that Nature has everything for our health. Lactoferrin starts digestion at the newborn and is also protecting our immunity during life. I travel a lot and I always take it with myself. During the autumn - winter period Lactoferrin protects me. My children use it too."

FAQs

Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® Science

What is Lactoferrin?

Lactoferrin (LF) is a metal-binding glycoprotein that is normally synthesized inside all mammals, including humans. It is a single-gene product (“bio-replenishment”) that regulates several important physiological pathways, making it essential for life.

What are Bio-Replenishments?

Bio-replenishment molecules are active regulatory molecules that are naturally synthesized INSIDE the body. In contrast, most vitamins, minerals, plant extracts, etc. are produced OUTSIDE the body.

What is the role for Lactoferrin in the body?

LF is a multi-functional bio-replenishment; its primary role is to provide total body protection (innate host defense) and to maintain a healthy physiology (regularity).

Why does our body need Lactoferrin supplementation?

The dietary and working habits, stress and environment in our modern life style deplete and compromise our innate defenses. The outcome – an increased susceptibility to infections, irregularity and pain. Replenishment of the body with LF (supplementation) could provide a balance to the innate defense.

What are the benefits of taking Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®?

Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® is a nutraceutical replenishment for total body health, regularity and balance. Specific health benefits include stimulation of beneficial intestinal flora, prolonged antioxidant activity, and help to modulate immune responses.

What is unique about Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®?

Unlike any lactoferrin supplements produced from whey proteins and/or colostrum; Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® is derived directly from cow milk obtained from a pristine geographic region. The cows' are non-GMO; the milk they produce is antibiotic-free, hormone-free, kosher and halal certified. The product is further cleansed to ultra-purity to enhance bioavailability and functionality of lactoferrin using a unique patent-pending protein technology. In fact, it takes about 3 quarts of milk to produce a single capsule (60 mg lactoferrin content) of Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®.

What is the rationale behind the trademark – Lactoferrin Gold 1.8®?

Purity, bioavailability and functionality of the protein are the essential criteria for a proper LF supplementation. Sourcing of milk from healthy dairy herds for LF isolation sets the first gold standard. A proprietary process based on a non-thermal technology to prevent protein denaturization during the purification of LF from milk sets the second gold standard. Finally, a patent-pending technology to ensure highest purity, maximum bioavailability and optimum functionality for the LF protein sets the ultimate third gold standard. Based on a suggested average daily intake value, a daily dosage of sixty milligrams of LF for a month is 1.8 grams. Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® - is sum of the above golden standards.

Lactoferrin Gold 1.8® Safety
