Colostrum, Probiotic, Immunity, ImmunoglobulinAbstract
Colostrum, the first nutritional source for newborns, not only provides essential nutrients for growth but also contains immunological factors that activate the immune system against harmful microorganisms encountered in the environment. Colostral components form initial intestinal barriers in newborns. A healthy intestinal barrier can eliminate harmful pathogens, such as mesophilic aerobic bacteria, by promoting the growth of probiotic microorganisms, thereby enhancing immunity through increased colonization. This review aims to explore the potential of probiotics in improving the immunological quality of colostrum and developing more effective methods for its enhancement.
