SABIN is a Lactoferrin is a Protein Found in Cow Milk and Human Milk. Colostrum, the First Milk Produced after a Baby is Born, Contains High Levels of Lactoferrin, about Seven Times the Amount Found in Milk Produced Later on. Lactoferrin is also Found in Fluids in the Eye, Nose, Respiratory Tract, Intestine, and Elsewhere. People use Lactoferrin as Medicine.
Lactoferrin Helps Regulate the Absorption of Iron in the Intestine and Delivery of Iron to the Cells. It also Seems to Protect against Bacterial Infection, Possibly by Preventing the Growth of Bacteria by Depriving them of Essential Nutrients or by Killing Bacteria by Destroying their Cell Walls. The Lactoferrin Contained in Mother's Milk is Credited with Helping to Protect Breast-Feed Infants against Bacterial Infections.
In Addition to Bacterial Infections, Lactoferrin Seems to be Active against Infections causes by some Viruses and Fungi.
Lactoferrin also Seems to be Involved with Regulation of Bone Marrow Function (Myelopoiesis), and it Seems to be Able to Boost the Body's Defense (Immune) System.
