On the other hand, the efficiency of the growth factors in colostrum is enriched by contact with saliva and stomach acids. Consequently, to gain maximum benefit from these components, taking colostrum powder is necessary.
Daniel S. Bricker, B.S., in the November 1991 issue of The American Chiropractor ("Colostrum: Implications for Accelerated Recovery in Damaged Muscle and Cartilage, Prevention of Some Pathogenic Disease"), says: "Patients with a desire to enhance their immune system typically take 500mg every day for five days, thereafter tapering off to half that dosage. Athletes and individuals with musculoskeletal injuries who wish to capitalize on the anabolic effects of colostrum generally use even greater doses such as 750mg per day initially. They also taper to half the original amount over time."
According to the Center for Nutritional Research, (an independent, nonprofit educational company): "Every person is unique with regard to the amount of colostrum that is best for them. Many natural health practitioners suggest, that for best results, colostrum should be 'front loaded,' that is, taken in larger doses initially, with lower doses after the desired results are obtained. If the benefits you have experienced diminish when you decrease dosage, go back to your initial intake…
Colostrum works best when taken in capsule form, on an empty stomach with eight to 12 ounces of water. If you cannot swallow capsules, you may open the capsule and mix it with a few tablespoons of yogurt, applesauce or other food. Don't forget to drink the water."
