IG-MAXX |
Colostrum |
|
The basic constituent of IG-MAXX is rich in a wide array of naturally occurring immune factors with little variability from day to day. This fact allows for the high purity and consistency of IG-MAXX. IG-MAXX has a low degree of allergenicity because it does not contain any dairy proteins.
|
Only the first milking is true colustrum – subsequent milking increasingly resembles milk in casein and lactose content. Because of this, colostrum is well known for its inconsistency in product quality and potential allergenicity. |
|
The active ingredient in IG-MAXX is produced from material collected under USDA inspection and manufactured according to the requirements of the FDA, GMP compliant manufacturing facility. The ingredient is cold processed within a proprietary manufacturing process, which limits loss of functionality and the potential for bacterial contamination.
|
Most colostrum is pasteurized due to contamination with pathogenic bacteria during the collection process. Pasteurization results in reduced levels and functionality of the bioactive protein. |
|
IG-MAXX has up to 4 times the antibody binding capacity compared to standard colostrum. IG-MAXX typically contains 50-65% total immunoglobulins.
|
Typically, colostrum can contain 10-30% immunoglobulins. However, this is highly variable depending how long after birth the colostrum was collected. |
|
IG-MAXX’s high levels of transferrin, endotoxin binding proteins, and other antimicrobial factors provide 15 times more antimicrobial activity than what is found in colostrum.
|
Typical recommended doses of colostrum does not provide functional levels of lactoferrin and other innate immune factors. |
|
Antibody binding and antimicrobial activities found in IG-MAXX have been scientifically shown to reduce local and systemic inflammation by decreasing production and expression of inflammatory cytokines. |
The anti-inflammatory effects of colostrum have not been well researched and would be a fraction of what is found in IG-MAXX due to the reduced antimicrobial activities of colostrum. |
|
|
|
|
IG-MAXX is enriched with growth factors such as IGF-1, TGFb-1, and TGFb-2. These factors are well known for their growth promoting, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory activities.
|
The variable nature of colostrum does not allow for an accurate and consistent measurement of growth factors.
|
|
An initial less-potent version of IG-MAXX has been scientifically proven to have a positive effect in animal studies on recovery from bovine coronavirus infection, which is similar to the virus found to be the cause of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).
|
No scientific data available. |
|
An extremely high level of positive feedback has been reported by IG-MAXX users when using IG-MAXX as nutritional support for wellness issues that include colds, various flus, bowel problems (inflammatory), degenerative situations (cancer), various immune deficiencies (HIV/AIDS), pre & post operative support, upper respiratory problems (pneumonia), infections, lack of energy, and many other health problems.

Colostrum has yielded inconsistent and unreliable results. |
