Hi all,

The local newspaper recently had a private party ad which I have never seen before. The ad said cows collostrum for sale $5. per gallon. This could be for baby calves who are orphans or mother has 'no' milk.

My thoughts is why cant I take that stuff. How many are doing collostrum or similiar??? Dr. C told me one time that it would ( might) help me probably, but the real problem is all the sx's come right back when you end it. How much might one want to take???

Thats how Berkley Bedell(congressman from Iowa) claimed he was cured. But his collostrum was from a cow who was first implanted with BB during pregnancy. Would they inject that while first or last trimester? And where in the world would you be able to get bb to inject???

Does anyone know how to contact Birkly Bedell? I sure would like to converse with this real gentleman, as I remember him and his one of a kind voice.
Thanks for any help in this light!!!cause I am still--just don--

Don, i am takin Transfer factor for life just started about 2 weeks ago. I don't know if i feel a difference yet i know it takes time. My llmd suggested i take it becuz my natural killer cells were at 152 and she said they should be at least 300. So we shall see i don't know what to think of it yet.... I do know as of so far it hasn't taken away my symptoms. Robin

Hey -Just Don-

My niece who has Scleroderma has been taking it and says it has really helped her with her fatigue and general malaise. But it's not the stuff that was cultured from BB (but I have heard about such stuff)...she gets hers from a health food store.

Hope this helps...I was considering trying it also. There are some sites on it I found on a Google search...Good Luck and let me know if you try it. TIA -laserred-

I take bovine colostrum that is powdered, processed, in capsule form. Can be ordered online. I also take bovine colostrum with transfer factors - one that has them for EBV, CMV, and HHV-6, and another for respiratory tract infections. I do have one that is supposed to be for BB but I am afraid to take it for fear of bad Herx - and I am doing relatively well now. I ordered these online also. E-mail me if you want more info. The one with the transfer factors for the viruses made a HUGE difference!!! Suzanne

Thnks all for responding,
Great responses!

Imasch, could you e-mail me with the name number and product name and code for the BB stuff collostrum. That is one I sure would like to try. Unless somebody has some stashed on their dusty back shelf and does not intend to use??? I am in a bit of a crunch here right now.

Always wondered about one thing. Up to the age of 19-20, whenever I left home, all we ever had for milk is fresh from the spiggot, unpasterurized, skimmed off the top of the 300 gallon cooling tank in the barn. And since I started milking cows at age 4 or so ,sitting on the one legged stool, if we were thirsty we squirted direct from cow to mouth. Zoonosis what it is, could I have picked up something like bursellosis or salmenella? What other disease related to lyme and coinfections could come from a cow???Zoonosis you know of???
Thanks for listening and keep on thinking as to cures and fixes for these problems as I remain--just don--

That would be my concern, don. I wouldn't take anything unpasteurized now. No way.

I agree Lyme too, I wouldnt drink but pasturized milk and products also but my point is back then it was everyday, thats how it is done. Does ANYBODY know if it is remotely"possible" to get something that long ago from the cows milk and just starting to show up like in the last 10 years or so with 25 years inbetween. Sounds like a long shot, but possible, knowing what we 'now' know about lyme and coinfections. Can anybody relate??? Or add to the questions or answers??? Thanks--don--
