Allergies in humans are the result of Immunoglobulin E (IgE) production by
the body in response to a foreign protein to which the body has become
sensitized. Colostrum can help desensitize the body to allergens by helping to
suppress IgE expression.
Colostrum contains antibodies against allergens of clinical importance to
humans94
Colostrum contains IgE binding factors which suppress IgE expression (IgE
is the immunoglobulin involved in allergic reactions) and act to prevent or
inhibit allergic reactions95
