Osavi Lactoferrin - 200mg - 30 caps

Dietary supplement in the form of a hard capsule with lactoferrin - a protein from the group of glycoproteins that has the ability to bind and transport iron. Lactoferrin Proferrin® is obtained from cow's milk.
If you care about your immunity and want to improve iron absorption, then consider lactoferrin supplementation [1]. Lactoferrin is described as a multifunctional protein found in many body fluids, including milk, saliva, and tears [2]. It can help protect you from bacteria and viruses and support every cell in the body from oxidative stress [3].

Lactoferrin, a component of milk proteins (lacto + ferrin = milk + iron), has antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects [4]. It is an iron-binding glycoprotein (approximately 77 kDa) that helps balance iron levels in the body. Iron deficiency, which manifests itself in excessive fatigue, weakness, dizziness and headaches, heart palpitations, as well as excessive hair loss and deterioration of the skin and nails, significantly worsens the quality of life [5]. In such cases, lactoferrin supplementation can be helpful in supporting iron absorption and iron deficiency [6]. Excess iron can also be harmful and lead to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Due to its ability to bind iron ions strongly and reversibly, lactoferrin helps the body maintain the homeostasis of this element [3]. This glycoprotein supports the immune system in dealing with chronic inflammatory processes that lead to iron deficiency [7]. In a study of female long-distance runners who took lactoferrin in combination with iron for 8 weeks, they were able to observe positive changes in blood counts and lactate levels compared to participants who received iron alone [8]. This suggests a positive effect of lactoferrin on iron levels and exercise tolerance in physically active individuals. In addition, lactoferrin can be successfully used by pregnant women not only to support iron absorption but also to support immune function due to its proven safety. The review found that pregnant women under the influence of lactoferrin supplementation show improved iron absorption, favorable changes in blood morphology and fewer digestive complaints when taking iron orally [6]. The reduced gastrointestinal side effects when combining oral iron with lactoferrin are most likely due to the lack of excess free iron in the gastrointestinal tract. This avoids mucosal irritation and impaired intestinal motility [9]. In addition, lactoferrin can support our immune function by increasing the activity of immune cells and inhibiting pathogenic bacteria and viruses [4]. Observations have shown a positive effect of lactoferrin supplementation or consumption of lactoferrin-enriched fermented milk on the skin, reducing acne vulgaris by 20.3% compared to placebo and improving the overall condition [10,11].

Our food supplement contains up to 200 mg of Proferrin® Lactoferrin, the purest branded lactoferrin on the market (>95%), in 1 capsule. It is obtained from high-quality cow's milk from controlled farms. It is processed by microfiltration (without pasteurization) and drying at low temperature, resulting in a native lactoferrin whose structure and bioactivity are identical to those of fresh milk. Lactoferrin has the ability to bind and transport iron, so if you want to improve iron absorption, choose our high lactoferrin food supplement!
