Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in human and bovine breast milk, and which has a powerful immunostimulating effect. Its multifunctional role also encompasses antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities. Neonatal units are successfully using lactoferrin to reduce infections in hospitals; Improved infant milk formulas made in China are now enriched with lactoferrin. As an immunomodulator, lactoferrin is involved in the management of the inflammatory response, making it beneficial for the management of diseases such as high cholesterol, gastrointestinal inflammation, airway inflammation, and acne. Lactoferrin may also stimulate the cells responsible for bone growth.
Animal studies confirm that the combination of lactoferrin and chemotherapy is more effective than either treatment alone. Lactoferrin can therefore be used to optimize the effectiveness of conventional treatments, as well as for the prevention of secondary infections. This is an important advantage, because infections secondary to immune dysfunction are one of the leading causes of mortality in cancer patients treated with radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Lactoferrin Ultra contains 89% protein, a factor that makes it very beneficial for cancer patients for whom the ability to maintain adequate nutrition is essential to a favorable prognosis. Protein is particularly important for preventing the development of cancer cachexia, a condition characterized by weight loss, muscle atrophy, weakness and anorexia.
People who need to strengthen their immune system and need protein supplementation when weakened or ill will benefit greatly from adding AOR Lactoferrin Ultra to their diet.
