Action:
Lactoferrin helps the body better digest and absorb iron from the intestines. It has also been shown to protect against infections from bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It is believed that the lactoferrin in breast milk helps protect babies from infections.
People often use lactoferrin for low iron levels during pregnancy and to prevent blood infections (sepsis) in premature babies. It is also used for diarrhea, a decline in the immune system, and many other conditions.
Lactoferrin has also been proven to help with:
Lactoferrin has been shown to have immunomodulatory effects, meaning that it contributes to better protection of the body against viruses and colds, and can maintain resistance, thus better coping with immune stressors and a favorable immune status.
Lactoferrin's ability to bind iron inhibits the growth of several pathogenic bacteria. It releases the iron that bacteria need to survive and disrupts the proliferation of these bacteria. This can reduce the risk of bacterial infection.
As an iron-binding protein, lactoferrin aids in the absorption of iron, which is important for those at risk of anemia.
