health nerds – The Podcast about Species-Appropriate Living
"The evolution of lactoferrin is 160 million years old, much older than humans themselves, and it has developed in all mammals as an important protective substance."
In this HEALTH NERDS Deep Dive everything revolves around lactoferrin – an endogenous glycoprotein found in saliva, tears, nasal mucus, and breast milk, considered a true superhero of our immune system.
Health scientist Matthias Baum explains why lactoferrin belongs to the body's first line of defense: it has antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and immunomodulatory effects. Especially in breast milk, it plays a crucial role in protecting newborns and provides fascinating insights into the structure of our immune system.
Podcast host Felix Moese talks with the expert about the influence of lactoferrin on iron metabolism, its importance in inflammatory diseases, and its role in gut health:
Why is modern research paying more attention to this molecule today than ever before?
What are natural sources of lactoferrin?
How should it be processed to work optimally as a dietary supplement?
And why is science so fascinated by this protein?
Answers in the HEALTH NERDS Deep Dive: Lactoferrin.
