Question about Natural drug (Colostrum)?

[Chasesmommy5]

Okay I know this is going to sound crazy but here goes......has anyone ever heard of a natural drug called Colostrum? Yes u heard me right Colostrum the same thing that mothers produce before breast milk comes in for new baby. Well I have a friend who's mother in FL has P and recently started taking a pill form of Colostrum and says that she cleared 100% after 3 weeks. The website is www.yourwellnesscompany.com, check it out sounds pretty interesting. I am always sceptical of these wonder cures, but this one makes me think back to when I had my son I remember the nurse telling me that Colostrum boosts the immune system. Let me know ur thought???

Well, if you have P you don't want to boost your immune system. P is a case of an OVER-active immune system. But I don't have any personal knowledge of this product.

Yes, I have also heard from the rheum to be careful about "boosting" the immune system for someone's whose system already "hyper-responds" so to speak. I've heard of people using colostrum for different things, but don't know any particulars. I do know, however, that I nursed my son for 18 months, never used formula, not even in the NICU, and here we are...I also hear about different things and don't think it crazy at all that you're asking. That's how we learn! Hope things are going well for you & your son.
