Dr. Sarah Rahal - What Is Colostrum And What Does It Do?

Today, we're joined by Dr. Sarah Rahal, Founder & CEO of ARMRA, and a double-board-certified pediatric neurologist with expertise in environmental and functional medicine. We've talked about Colostrum on the show many times, but today we have the founder on to answer all the questions we've received from listeners about its benefits. Dr. Sarah sits down with us to discuss all things Colostrum, basic nutrition, how human & food industry evolution has changed our nutrition requirements, and what the immune system needs in order to function to its greatest potential.

Yes! I wish more people knew about this. Colostrum is amazing!
People should let go of the myth that the baby isn’t getting enough nutrients during this time before the milk comes in. Milk is great too but colostrum deserves to be more appreciated. It’s only there for a short time so we should be grateful while we have it.

That’s why we should breastfeed — but from our mothers, not cows. This idea that colostrum from another mammal is essential for health is not supported by evidence.
