In this episode, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses Lactoferrin, a naturally occurring protein found in the milk of mammals, including humans. It has various health benefits, including antibacterial and antiviral properties, regulation of iron absorption and metabolism, anti-inflammatory effects, and improvement of immune function and gut health. Lactoferrin has been shown to be particularly effective in promoting bone health by stimulating bone formation and suppressing bone resorption. Human studies have demonstrated positive effects on inflammation and bone turnover markers!
