  • Jage, Kampmann, Kolb, et. al., 1992, Clin. Investigation Jul.; 70(7): 588-94 Reported: A. immunoglobulins from bovine colostrum (lactobin, biotest, Dreieich, FRG) contain high titres of antibodies against a wide range of bacterial, viral and protozoa pathogens, as well as against various bacterial toxins. B. Lactobin quite resistant to gastric acids. C. Effective in the treatment of opportunistic infections that cause diarrhea. Treatment and effectiveness in AlDS patients verified, where no other treatment was effective.

  • Desert News, Salt Lake City, Utah June 19, 1991 Mentioned Study by protozoologist Ron Fayer US Dept. Of Agric.: two AlDS patients with cryptosporidium caused diarrhea were relived of symptoms in treatment with hyperimmune colostrum. A larger study to continue at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Dr. Bruce Anderson a veterinary pathologist at the University of Idaho stated: "There have been over 50 drugs tried to relive AIDS patients diarrhea, they didn't work. But this hyper immune colostrum does." Anderson is credited with suggesting this form of therapy because he noticed that a number of veterinary students would come down with cryptosporidiosis after contact with cattle who had disease. He theorized that immune capability could be transferred to humans.
