Frequently Asked Questions
What is colostrum, and why does it matter?
Colostrum is the first milk a cow produces in the first days after calving. It's far more concentrated than regular milk in immunoglobulins like IgG, lactoferrin, and growth factors, which is why it's used as a whole-food supplement to support gut and immune health.
What makes Honor Colostrum different?
Honor Colostrum is whole, grass-fed, and never defatted, so its fat-soluble growth factors stay intact. It's single-ingredient with no fillers or proprietary blends, sourced from healthy cows in the U.S., and third-party tested for quality and purity.
How do I take Honor Colostrum?
Scoop it directly into your mouth or stir it into any cool beverage. Honor's suggested use is 2-3 scoops daily. Avoid very hot drinks, since heat can be hard on colostrum's delicate bioactives.
Is Honor Colostrum safe?
Bovine colostrum is generally recognized as safe and well tolerated. The main caution is that it's a dairy product and contains milk, so anyone with a milk allergy should avoid it. If you're pregnant, nursing, or managing a health condition, talk with your healthcare provider first.
Can I take colostrum if I'm lactose intolerant?
Colostrum contains milk and is lower in lactose than regular milk, but it isn't lactose-free. If you're lactose-sensitive, start with a small amount and see how you do. A milk allergy is different from lactose intolerance, and anyone with a milk allergy should avoid colostrum entirely.
Where is Honor Colostrum sourced?
From healthy, grass-fed cows in the United States, collected calf-first, and third-party tested for purity.
Is Honor Colostrum third-party tested?
Yes. Every batch is third-party tested for quality and purity, so what's on the label is what's in the jar.
Can I take colostrum while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Talk with your doctor before adding colostrum or any new supplement during pregnancy or while nursing.
Is colostrum suitable for children?
Ask your pediatrician before giving colostrum to a child; they can advise on whether it's appropriate and in what amount.
What is Honor Whipped Tallow?
A whipped balm that blends grass-fed beef tallow with colostrum. Tallow's fatty acids are similar to skin's own oils and support the moisture barrier, while colostrum adds bioactive proteins. It comes unscented or lightly scented with lavender.
Does tallow clog pores or smell like beef?
Properly rendered tallow is essentially neutral in scent, and tallow generally rates low on the comedogenic scale. If your skin is very breakout-prone, patch test first.
