Episode 368: What’s up with Armra Colostrum? Serum Bovine Immunoglobulins vs. Colostrum.

What’s the deal with Armra and why is every health influencer talking about it? Is there solid research to back up its extraordinary claims? How does colostrum compare to serum bovine immunoglobulins in terms of sourcing, tolerance and efficacy? Tune in to hear us unpack this buzzworthy new product and whether it is worth the hefty price tag. 

In this episode, we discuss the benefits of colostrum and immunoglobulins and whether Armra is all it's cracked up to be. Whenever we look at a buzzworthy new product, we want to understand the active compound and its mechanism of action, and whether the actual proprietary compound has been tested in clinical trials. Learn how Armra stacks up and why we ultimately prefer serum immunoglobulins (such as our GI Immune Builder) over dairy based colostrum.
