What is bovine colostrum?
Bovine colostrum is the first milk a cow produces after giving birth. “Bovine” simply means relating to cattle; cow colostrum and bovine colostrum describe the same source.
Colostrum naturally differs from the mature milk produced later in lactation. Its composition includes immunoglobulins, which are proteins also known as antibodies. Its role in feeding a newborn calf does not establish the effects of a finished colostrum product in adults. Research on commercial colostrum products also shows that their properties can vary.
LR Colostrum Liquid is prepared for human consumption. Although people commonly search for it as a bovine colostrum supplement, the supplied German product description identifies it as a colostrum-based food. It is made from first milk with fat and casein removed, rather than ordinary drinking milk.
Ingredients and nutritional information
Removing casein, one type of milk protein, does not make the product milk-free. It remains an animal-derived food and is not suitable for a vegan diet.

Ingredient: cow colostrum (colostral milk), defatted and with casein removed. LR states that the product contains no added additives, colourings or preservatives. The recommended daily portion is 8 ml. Product composition can change; always follow the information on your current packaging.
Sourcing and preparation
According to LR, only surplus colostrum from European cows is used, after the calf’s needs have been met. Each production batch can be traced back to the supplying farm.
The colostrum is collected in the first hours after calving and frozen. During further processing, fat and casein are removed. LR describes a cold production process without pasteurisation, intended to protect heat-sensitive constituents.
The supplied manufacturer information states that Colostrum Liquid is made in Germany and carries the SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS quality seal. LR describes ongoing checks of its raw materials and products. These are product-quality statements, rather than evidence of a particular health outcome.
How to take Bovine colostrum
Before us shake the bottle. Take 8 ml daily, on its own or mixed with cold fruit juice. Do not mix with hot drinks. After opening, keep the bottle in the fridge and consume within 16 days.
liquid colostrum or capsules?
Liquid colostrum may suit you if you prefer a measured drink to capsules. LR Colostrum Liquid can be taken directly, so there is no powder to dissolve, and its ingredient list is short.
Capsules offer a different way to take colostrum and may be easier to carry. Their ingredients, amounts and storage requirements depend on the individual product. Compare the label’s daily serving, source, processing information and any stated constituent amounts.
An 8 ml liquid serving cannot be treated as equivalent to a particular number of capsules without product-specific data. Choose according to the declared formulation and practical instructions; the format alone does not show that one product works better.
Important information
Contains milk. Do not use if you have a cow’s milk allergy. Casein removal does not establish that all allergenic milk proteins have been removed.
The supplied information does not establish that this product is lactose-free. Milk allergy and lactose intolerance are different conditions; see the Food Standards Agency’s consumer guidance.
