Statera Bio-Colostrum

Colostrum is the fluid humans, cows, and other mammals produce before breast milk is released. It is very nutritious and contains high levels of antibodies, and proteins that fight infections and bacteria.

Our whole colostrum powder is guaranteed to have nothing skimmed off, concentrated, or removed. The raw colostrum our Dairy partners produce is collected and tested rigorously according to an HACCP process registered with Dairy Food Safety Victoria.

Statera Bio-Colostrum is processed using a gentle method specifically designed for colostrum, preserving its heat-sensitive proteins and ensuring maximum bioactivity. Unlike other colostrum products, Statera Bio-Colostrum is not altered or manipulated through artificial processes like membrane processing, which can compromise antibody levels. Our state-of-the-art production facility is optimized for handling heat-sensitive colostrum, ensuring a superior product.

To maintain the integrity of the colostrum, Statera Bio-Colostrum is freeze-dried at low temperatures, preventing damage to the valuable proteins. This gentle process helps preserve the natural bioactivity of the colostrum.

Statera Bio-Colostrum has been independently tested by the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) and has consistently demonstrated higher levels of immunoglobulin bioactivity compared to other colostrum brands. Rigorous testing ensures that our product meets the highest standards of quality and effectiveness.

Colostrum is collected from cows 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. We take what we can spare, still allowing the calf to receive what it needs.

Statera Bio-Colostrum comes from South Gippsland Dairy and is hand harvested from a very small and select number of family farms. Harvesting this way, local farmers can meticulously collect the excess colostrum. The high levels of antibodies and growth factors in our products occur naturally and are balanced by nature.

Statera Bio-Colostrum can be traced back to the farm of it’s origin, through South Gippsland Dairy Colostrum. We do not blend or import or use any other products.

Colostrum can be top dressed over hard feed or mixed in with horse horses daily feeds. For the best results, we suggest avoiding using hot water with colostrum as the valuable proteins within colostrum are heat sensitive.

Allergies: Colostrum's immunoglobulins and lactoferrin promote and balance natural immunity. Additionally, its proline-rich polypeptide reduces inflammation and swelling associated with allergies and autoimmune conditions.

Digestive Distress: The gastrointestinal tract is pivotal in a horse’s immune response. Colostrum protects against conditions like ulcers and colic, while its Transforming Growth Factors (TGF) stimulate gastrointestinal repair and maintain mucosal integrity.

Leaky Gut Syndrome: Colostrum seals the intestinal lining, preventing the absorption of allergens and toxins. Lactoferrin acts as an antimicrobial, bolstering gut immunity and protecting against conditions like laminitis and digestive disorders.

Obesity and Insulin Resistance: Colostrum aids in burning body fat and improving insulin sensitivity. It facilitates glucose movement into muscles, reducing blood glucose levels and triglycerides, potentially benefiting horses with insulin resistance and obesity.

Muscles, Joints, and Ligaments: Insulin-like Growth Factors (IGF) in colostrum support muscle growth and repair, benefiting athletes and aging horses with joint and ligament damage.

Performance and Recovery: Studies show that colostrum supplementation enhances racehorse earnings and speeds up recovery post-exercise by boosting immune function and oxidative response.

Respiratory Health: Colostrum-based supplements have proven effective in reducing the duration of respiratory infections in horses, offering a natural alternative to pharmaceutical treatments.

Incorporating colostrum into your horse’s regimen can significantly enhance their overall health, immune response, and performance across various disciplines.
