Recommended Posts

How much colostrum were your friends taking?!!!

I think its great. It keeps me from catching every little bug that I

come across .But I do take breaks from constant use.

When my son was born he came 10 weeks early and was rather sickly .

He did catch everything and was very sick and scrawny.the last major

thing he had was a cough that made him throw everything up when he

was about 2. I really thought he might not survive I started giving

him colostrum in his applesauce . the bug cleared up and he wasnt

sick again to endanger his life.I think it saved his life,

I get my colostrum bulk from

Excellentthings.com

Her bulk price is great.

+++There are so many aspects of my program that build up your immune system my

dear, so don't be concerned about that. No, do not take colustrum. I've found

people who add things like that to my program don't do better, so it's a waste

of money and effort. Mainly " proper nutrients " (they all work together) is what

builds up the immune system which take time and patience.

Luv & Hugs, Bee

Very interesting about the colostrum. I am interested for my long suffering

mother (mites too) I think it might help my poor body recover too. I know you

have posted about it before, but would you mind posting where you bought it and

what brand again please?

>

> Hi Holly,

>

> I read Ray's protocal a while back and this, plus the one posted on

Shannspirations helped me to develop a plan for us in the beginning. In

reading this again, I realized that I'd forgotton to mention in my list of

things that I posted was that I began taking Colostrum about a month before we

began to enter this bug-free calm we've had recently, and I was reminded how

important it is to work on the immune system. Fighting these things for so long

can certainly put a drain on the body's defenses, and I believe the Colostrum

has been an important part of our recent trend in knocking them down.

stress right now, I can't imagine how you're coping with the move AND trying to

make sure the home is bug-free for the people moving in! You're in my prayers.

you how I was able to rid my family of 5 (including myself) of these invisible

> 1. Permethrin Cream:

>

> Although Permethrin creams seemed pretty much useless in ridding ourselves

of the mites it did seem to help keep them off of us while we had it on.

Sometimes the Permethrin Cream seemed to make the mites mad and they bite worse

but eventually they died. We were able to use the permethrin cream to get the

mites off of my 5 and 6 year old children and luckily for us my mother was able

to watch them and take them to school and pick them up from school for about 3-4

months while we worked at removing the mites from the house. We had the

invisible mites for over 9 months in total. Every affected person you can remove

from your environment is one less host for these things. Do not try to use the

Permethrin Cream more often than perscribed. I did this trying to get a good

nights sleep and woke up one night very sick I thought I was going to pass out

and luckily made it to the shower. After I washed it off I felt better but still

could feel the toxic affects.

>

>

> I realized that Windex original does kill the mites but you need to spray a

lot. That being said you will need a respirator from hardware store that is used

to spray pesticides. Spraying everything in our house seemed to bring the number

of mites way down. The windex did not stain our \ " off-white\ " carpet but please

use caution when spraying it on light colored items of value. Use the Windex to

spray out your cars, homes and work area where ever you work. When you spray

your home get the ceilings, walls, floors and everywhere possible. I work in an

office building and Windex does not look out of place in an office. I would

spray my car as I exited since it isn't really safe to drive with a mask on and

it can bother your eyes if you spray too heavily with the Windex and immediatly

enter the car to drive.

>

> I did try spraying with Ammonia but the results were not half as good as

windex. Also, you need to be careful if your have just sprayed with bleach/water

because the Ammonia-D in the Windex and the bleach will make some toxic fumes.

>

> 3. Listerine:

>

> I found that spraying Original Listerine on me in the shower from a spray

bottle helped to rinse the mites off and the crawling feeling would go away so I

could get a good nights sleep and concentrate at work. The Listerine seems to

bother them enough so they let go of you and rinse off with the water. If you

have this you know regular showers with soap, water and shampoos do nothing to

these things. I believe this also helps to wash off the pheromones you are

marked with or at least disrupts pheromone communications mites use. Spray the

shower floor with Windex after showering because Listerine doesn''t seem to kill

them and the shower floor was covered with biting mites that were washed off of

us but not killed. Spray your feet several times because a lot of mites seem to

try and hold on to your feet in a last ditch effort and you feet will become

infested.

seem to be attracted to people with infections or fungus problems.

can buy it by the laudry detergent it is landry booster. It helped a lot putting

washing machine from a high distance allowing a gust of wind to come up, the

Hi Holly,

I got the Colostrum from Vitamin Shoppe (there's an online site)

http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/search/en/query.jsp?q=Simbiotic+Colostrum & intsource2=main & tab_selection=vitamins & x=26 & y=10

I think it takes a while for the benefits to settle in - but I think it's been helping me. Good luck and it may help your mom too.

Weston A Price has an article on how to cook with it. http://www.westonaprice.org/foodfeatures/colostrum.htmlI use it when one of us is sick...it's high in immunoglobulins.I just add it half to milk. I've never noticed it having a strong taste...to me it tastes like watered down milk.

If you don't want to consume it, you can make soap with it, use it in your bath water, as a face wash, etc...

Please tell me about colostrum (specifically raw cow colostrum).....

what are the health benefits of using it, how do you use it?

I have over 3 gallons of it in my fridge, plus half gallon of yogurt

made from it. It is strong tasting, so we are unwilling to drink it as

is. I put some in my husband's smoothie last night, but had to mask the

taste with lots of fruit and some honey and vanilla. That was about 8

oz. of it, now to figure out what to do with the other 448 oz.! I know

some people pay high prices for it in a bottle.

Thanks!

Bonnie

If you let the calf nurse you are more likely to have difficulty with getting him to take a bottle after a few days. He will get all the colostrum he needs if you feed it to him. You will have a much easier time starting him right off on a bottle. At the first milking of a fresh cow I take only a gallon of colostrum and I give all of it to the calf over a 12 hour period. Then at the next milking I take most but not all of the milk and then at the third I milk as usual. If you take all of it at the first milking you can but the cow into a milk fever state more easily. It is more natural this way. You don't usually have this problem with a first freshener but I still like to do it this way.

More questions... Our cow is about to calve (hopefully sooner than later!). This is our first time as well as hers. I've been told stories about milking a cow for the colostrum and then the cow dies. We plan on letting the calf be with her for the first 2-3 days and then separating them. We want the calf to get all the colostrum it can. We weren't planning on milking her until the 3rd day. Is that reasonable? How do you tell when the colostrum is gone and the milk has come in?

Thanks!

Sincerely,

Dona

Is anyone still using this or has everyone moved on to something else? If you are using, what is the best brand, please and does the Nutricentre stock it.? We were using Kirkman's and have run out. I am not sure it was ever of any value.

>>Kirkman is my favourite, its a bit too expensive to use every day but we use it at any sign of illness

Colosstrum has been one of our best supplements. We use Kirkman, but only few drops every day, so one bottle lasts for ages.

I fill some off into small dropper bottle and keep rest in freezer.
