Real Roots – Colostrum Powder – 90g – 100% Pure and Nutritious

Real Roots Colostrum Powder – 100% Pure and Nutritious

Colostrum is the first milk produced by cows after giving birth to their calf. This unique substance naturally contains proteins, calcium, phosphorus, and bioactive components such as immunoglobulins and lactoferrin. Real Roots Colostrum is carefully collected within 24 hours after calving from Dutch pasture-raised dairy cows, then defatted and freeze-dried. This process helps extend shelf life and maintain the product’s natural nutritional value.

This colostrum powder is suitable for anyone looking to supplement their daily diet with high-quality animal protein and naturally occurring micronutrients.

• Free from additives, hormones, and antibiotics

• Traditionally valued and highly versatile

Is this colostrum unprocessed?

Not entirely. To preserve quality and shelf life, the colostrum is gently heated and defatted. In addition, the powder is standardised so that each batch contains at least 30% immunoglobulins (IgG). This ensures a consistently high level of these naturally occurring protein fractions.

This careful processing makes the product stable, long-lasting, and unique within its category.

Does the calf receive enough colostrum?

Yes, absolutely. Calf welfare is always the top priority. Only colostrum that remains after the calf has had enough is collected. This way, the calf receives exactly what it needs in the crucial first hours, and the surplus is responsibly used for human consumption — striking a fair balance between animal health and nutritional value.

Is colostrum powder suitable for children?

Colostrum powder can generally be used by children. However, as it is an animal protein product, parents are advised to consult a doctor or qualified healthcare professional beforehand, especially in cases of (possible) allergies. The dosage can be adjusted according to age and body weight.

How is the quality of the colostrum controlled?

Each batch of colostrum powder is independently tested by a specialised laboratory. These analyses determine, among other things, the immunoglobulin (IgG) content and the total protein content. These testing methods ensure consistent, high product quality according to strict specifications.

What is the quality of the colostrum?

The colostrum is collected within 24 hours after calving from Dutch pasture-raised dairy cows. This early milk is known for its high concentration of nutrients and bioactive compounds. By using only controlled sources and applying strict selection criteria, the quality of the colostrum remains consistently high — the same standard used for the colostrum capsules from the same source.

What is the difference between colostrum capsules and colostrum powder?

The colostrum in the capsules is raw freeze-dried, making it a raw milk product. The colostrum powder, by contrast, is gently heated and defatted, which results in longer shelf life and greater stability. Defatting also increases the protein concentration while most of the naturally occurring fats are removed.

When should you choose colostrum powder over capsules?

Colostrum powder is particularly suitable for those seeking longer shelf life, higher protein concentration, and ease of dosing or mixing. The powder format is ideal for daily use in shakes, smoothies, or other preparations.

Why are both “biest” and “colostrum” mentioned?

To clearly distinguish between the products, both terms are used intentionally. Biest refers to an unprocessed, raw, whole food product, while colostrum generally refers to a heated and defatted product. Highlighting these differences allows customers to make an informed choice based on their personal preferences or goals.
