Introduction:

Lactoferrin is a protein found in cow milk and human milk. Colostrum, the first milk produced after a baby is born, contains about seven times more lactoferrin than is found in milk produced later on. Lactoferrin is also found in fluids in the eye, nose, respiratory tract, intestine, and elsewhere. People use lactoferrin as medicine.

Benefit:
Lactoferrin can protect the body from pathogenic microorganisms, such as microorganisms that cause bacterial, viral and fungal infections.

Lactoferrin can also enhance human immune function. It helps to eliminate bacteria and reduce infection rate.

Lactoferrin can inhibit virus replication at the intracellular level.
