Colostrum is the most important source of nutrition for newborns in their first days of life. Scientifically, breast milk produced within the first 7 days after birth contains significantly higher levels of IgA antibodies compared to regular milk. Just 1 cm³ of colostrum contains around 4,000 white blood cells that help eliminate harmful bacteria in a baby’s intestines. Discarding colostrum means losing these powerful immune benefits. Early breastfeeding, especially for full-term babies, has been shown to reduce the risk of pneumonia and diarrhea. Colostrum is often called a baby’s first vaccine, a precious gift prepared by a mother’s body to protect her newborn.
