Hello everyone, now lactoferrin is more and more famous, from imports to domestic production, from nutrition to food, today let's talk about it
First of all, cats can be fed lactoferrin
One study labeled oral lactoferrin to improve refractory stomatitis, whether felines were FIV-negative or positive
Another study marked
Lysine and lactoferrin are also effective against feline herpes virus type 1
Lysine was shown to be ineffective in later studies, and lactoferrin may be useful
So cats with these problems can consider lactoferrin
Can the dog eat it? It's okay, too
One study labeled that supplementation with bovine lactoferrin appeared to alter the cellular immune response index and fecal microbial count in healthy adult dogs
The details are as follows
Increases the number of monocytes, T cells, and cytotoxic T cells in the blood and the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells
Concentrations of E. coli and Clostridium aeronascens are lower in dog feces
In another study, two dogs changed to a severe upper respiratory tract bacterial infection, and long-term use of bovine lactoferrin improved clinical symptoms
In summary, lactoferrin may have a role in antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory activities
Dogs and cats with these diseases, or young and elderly frail, are more recommended to feed
However, there is also a study that shows that the effect on the stomach and intestines is not great, and the digestion of gastrointestinal problems is more recommended for specialized products
My family prepares my own bovine lactoferrin from abighug
Same brand as Brady yeast
That's it for today, thank you
