Please post any questions that others with autoimmune conditions may be able to help you with, and any comments you have about using colostrum, whether positive and negative.

I am so astounded, amazed and awed with the quality of your colostrum, that I felt that I have a duty to share my experience with others who are dealing with serious health issues and looking for help. My 4 year child has been diagnosed with absent natural killer cell function and diminished T-cell cytotoxic function, leading to recurrent and severe herpes infections. My child has been constantly on acyclovir (which is an anti-viral medication) for the last 2 years, 3 times daily, with dosage amounts increasing over time. In spite of the daily medications, my child was still getting herpes simplex outbreaks anywhere on his body. The situation was so severe that if we would happen to forget to administer only one dose during the day, the herpes outbreaks would come back with a vengeance within only hours! Then we would have to give double doses to control the outbreak until we can get back to the ‘regular’ dose. This was a constant living nightmare for the entire family! I was told by an immunologist that there is no treatment available for the NK cell defect, which is the root problem, and lifelong acyclovir seemed to be the only option, of course assuming and hoping that it would remain even effective over time…

I bought both the liquid and the lozenges because I wanted to provide a supplement to my child that is “good” for the health, sort of as if one would buy special vitamins knowing they play a positive role in the body. Never did I dare think for a moment that within only 2 weeks (or ever!) of consuming Synertek Colostrum, we would be able to stop taking all meds and have no herpes outbreaks!! First we noticed how great his skin looked and how full of energy he suddenly appeared - instead of always complaining of being tired and wanting to watch T.V., our child was suddenly bouncing all over the house. That was quite puzzling, so we got a bit brave and just slightly lowered the ‘regular’ dose of acyclovir - no outbreaks. Then we got still braver and again kept gradually lowering the meds dosage, all the while bracing ourself for another disappointment, but still sort of hoping against hope for the best. To our astonishment, again no outbreaks at all! Finally, after 2 weeks of being on colostrum, we just decided to ‘go for it’ and stopped administering acyclovir completely - no outbreaks at all! I am personally still stunned, and continue to patiently count every single day, one by one, of my child being acyclovir-free and radiantly healthy. Unexpectedly, I’ve also rediscovered the almost forgotten joy of having a bouncy, giggling and full of energy tot running around the house; somehow, I don’t mind picking up after him!!! All I can say is that this particular product, synertek colostrum, has been truly life-changing for our entire family. It delivered beyond our wildest hopes and expectations, and if our experience can help anyone else, then the gift of radiant health given to us will come full circle!
