Nutricology Lactoferrin - Lactoferrina 350 mg, Bovine Colostrum, 90 Vegan Capsules

What is lactoferrin?

Lactoferrin is a glycoprotein naturally present in bovine colostrum and milk. This protein has a high affinity for iron, which allows it to bind to this mineral and facilitate its transport in the body. Bovine colostrum, the first milk produced after birth, is especially rich in lactoferrin, immunoglobulins, and growth factors. Nutricology Laktoferrin offers 350 mg of lactoferrin per capsule, sourced from high-quality bovine colostrum, in a vegan and hypoallergenic presentation.

Lactoferrin is part of the body's natural defense systems, although specific health claims for this ingredient have not been authorized in the European Union. Its use is recommended as a food supplement within a balanced diet.

Key ingredients

Each capsule of Nutricology Laktoferrin provides 350 mg of pure lactoferrin obtained from bovine colostrum. Colostrum is a concentrated source of immune peptides and growth factors. This product contains no artificial excipients or common allergens, as it is formulated following the hypoallergenic standards that have characterized the brand since 1979. The capsule is plant-derived, suitable for vegan diets.

How does lactoferrin work?

The main function of lactoferrin is the binding and transport of iron in the body. By capturing free iron, it helps maintain the balance of this mineral and contributes to its distribution to the tissues that need it. In addition, lactoferrin has antioxidant properties, protecting cells from oxidative damage. Although these functions are scientifically recognized, European regulations do not allow claiming that it prevents or treats diseases. Therefore, this supplement is presented as nutritional support for those who wish to meet their lactoferrin needs.

Who is this supplement suitable for?

Nutricology Laktoferrin is indicated for adults looking for a quality lactoferrin supplement. It is especially useful for people with specific iron needs or who wish to support their mineral balance. Being hypoallergenic, it is suitable for people with food sensitivities. However, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional before starting consumption, especially in case of pregnancy, lactation, or if under medical treatment.

The recommended dose is 1 capsule per day, preferably at night before bedtime, or as directed by a healthcare professional. The capsules are easy to swallow. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep the container closed in a cool, dry place, out of the reach of children.

Frequently asked questions

Is this product suitable for vegans?

Yes, the capsules are plant-derived, although the lactoferrin comes from bovine colostrum. Therefore, it is not a strict vegan product, but it is suitable for vegetarian diets that include dairy.

Does it contain any allergens?

The product is manufactured in facilities that process milk and dairy products. Lactoferrin is obtained from bovine colostrum, so it may contain traces of milk proteins. However, it is formulated to be hypoallergenic and minimize reactions.

Can it be taken with other supplements?
