Colostrum for Cardiomyopathy (Human/Canine)
Cardiomyopathy is a type of heart disease in which the heart becomes abnormally enlarged, thickened, or hard. This usually weakens the heart’s ability to pump blood.
Both ischemic and non-ischemic types of cardiomyopathies suffered by both humans and canines will experience benefits from the introduction of colostrum into the daily diet.
Colostrum not only has an impact on the regeneration of cells, especially those damaged over time. Colostrum helps by reintroducing it into a system that, over time and exposure to different environmental factors, has been depleted. This depletion allows a breakdown of the body and its ability to regenerate at the cellular level.
The components necessary to make the body more receptive to regeneration are found within the substance known as “True” colostrum. What marketers are summarily publishing as colostrum has been scientifically proven to be transitional milk through laboratories at Cornell University, the Minnesota Valley Testing Laboratory, and many more.
I always tell people not to trust anyone, just ask for third party validation of what science has found on that particular product; If they can’t or won’t provide third party validation, you’re putting your pocketbook at risk, but more importantly your health!
Over the years, many people have approached me with their story; the following is a small part of a documented personal experience of Arlan Reynolds, he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure following a diagnosis of cardiomyopathy. As reported in the abstract, the individual routinely supplemented his diet with high-quality first-milking colostrum.
“They told me that I had an enlarged heart, that there was a certain percentage that was actually ‘dead.’ I had very little hope of ever having a normal life again,” recalls Arlan. When he discovered colostrum and started taking it, Arlan did not expect what could happen. He faithfully took 8-10 capsules/day and continued with his regular nutritional program. With As time went on, she noticed an increase in energy and stamina, but had no idea what was really going on until 12 months later, when she had her annual physical exam.”My doctor took X-rays of my heart along with other routine tests,” Arlan says. “He compared the X-rays to the ones I had originally taken. Then he sent me to a special center to corroborate his findings. After many other tests, including more X-rays, an EKG, and an echocardiogram, the doctor told me that he didn’t understand what had happened, but that all the tests indicated that my heart had returned to its normal size,” says Arlan. My The doctor said that in all his years of practice, he had never seen an enlarged heart return to its normal size.Excerpted from an article in The Colostrum Option vol.3, 2000, titled “Doctors Cannot Explain Your Recovery From Congestive Heart Failure “.
I have had the pleasure of Arlan’s company for many years. Arlan recently came to me and expressed his appreciation for the changes he has had. “Without your Immune Tree Dr. K colostrum, I wouldn’t be here. Every chance I get, I tell people what your product has done for me and other people have taken your product and experienced the same benefits I did. I recommend it to everybody!”
The benefits obtained here were likely due to the small amounts of growth hormone and substantial amounts of insulin-like growth factor-1 present in high-quality bovine colostrum. Growth hormone is extremely potent and therefore only a small amount is required. It directly influences the generation of new cells and the repair of existing tissues.
Scientific knowledge about natural growth factors, what they do and how they act on the cells of the body, and especially the heart, is evolving very rapidly and continues to grow.
As we age, our body’s ability to create an adequate supply of IGF-1 decreases, subsequently limiting the body’s ability to regenerate. If you look at the way our bodies are bombarded with different negative influences from environmental, food, air and water pollution, is it any wonder why our ability to produce youthful levels of the IGF-1 superfamily is diminished?
How can you maintain youthful levels of the natural growth factors that can have a huge impact on the regeneration of heart tissue, not to mention the rest of our bodies?
By maintaining a constant supply of IGF-1 in our body from the colostrum; To get the results we all seek, true colostrum must be ingested, the amount of IGF-1 found in colostrum should be approximately 2300-2400 ng/gram of powder. This is enough IGF-1 to have a large beneficial impact on those with heart disease.
Even more important, as we get older, the cells in our bodies don’t reproduce as well; we can lose up to half of our circulating IGF-1 by the time we are 40 years old and, since IGF-1 is a major factor in the ability of cells to grow and reproduce, it is highly desirable to have an adequate level of IGF-1 in the circulation through dietary supplements to limit the increasing rate of cell death.
