The cow colostrum gets collected within the first 6 hours after birth. The final products are available in various qualities:



In general cow colostrum is characterized by a high content of antibodies. The "cow's gold" is not available at will and therefore is very precious indeed. Thanks to the regulations of Swiss organic agriculture an excellent quality of the cow colostrum can be guaranteed.

Colostrum is a rare natural treasure!

The calf receives practically no immunoglobulins from the mother during gestation. It is born without any active immune protection. The complete immune system of the mother with all its immune factors gets transferred to the calf with the first suckling of colostrum. This guarantees the newborn an optimal start into life.


Since the majority of the immune factors are not species-specific they can also be transferred to humans. Large proteins such as antibodies unfold their effect in the gastrointestinal tract while smaller immune factors such as hormones can be absorbed into the blood.



Why can the farmer collect colostrum for our production?


This is only possible because animals such as cattle, goats and sheep have been bred for milk production. The milk yield of dairy cows has increased over decades - and the amount of colostrum too. The cows from our Swiss suppliers give a surplus of 2-5 litres of colostrum within the first 6 hours after birth. So please rest assured that the calf always gets its share in the first place.

We endeavour to process this 'liquid gold' as gently as possible in order to offer you high-quality QuraDea colostrum products.
