Deeply ingrained into our body are the chains of processes that take place to react to life-threatening stress. Dealing with stressful situations of any variety is exhausting for all the bodily systems. The physical demands of training for triathlon introduces an additional type of stress that ordinary citizens don\u2019t experience.<\/p>\n<p>The regulatory network that is located in the brain constantly assesses the level of stress experienced by the body and causes it to react accordingly. Colostrum, a natural nutrition product produced by cows, has proven to be a very powerful stress modulator that helps this internal, subconscious chain of communication. It makes an athlete more stress resistant and less susceptible to many kinds of bodily hazards. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason 1: Increased cell durability<\/strong><br \/>\nThe cells that cover all body surfaces, including the lungs, skin and stomach, are called epithelia and they are especially sensitive to injury. If the internal cells are unable to fight off damage or replace themselves rapidly, it has a serious impact on our wellbeing. Studies suggest that colostrum makes these cells more resistant to various stress factors, including heat, pH shifts, toxins and mechanical forces.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6657\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6657\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biestmilch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/durability_8258.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biestmilch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/durability_8258.jpg\" alt=\"Stress can destroy the cells.

Studies have shown that the immunoglobulins in colostrum enter the body and\u00a0apply their regulatory effects.

Its effects are manifold due\u00a0to its natural multivalent composition similar to our blood serum. The\u00a0overall\u00a0effects of BIESTMILCH can be summarized as modulating\u00a0inflammatory states based on stress. The components listed above should give you an idea of the complexity of this substance. It is being researched extensively, but looking at all the elements of colostrum at the same time is not easy. Therefore scientists have to reduce the complexity. They can only focus on a few molecules at a time. Of course, the results are\u00a0flawed because the whole is more than just an addition of the single molecules, so are the effects.<\/p>\n<p>It is your experience that counts. Try BIESTMILCH and see for yourself, because science is\u00a0not able yet to give a thorough cause-effect explanation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term stress was first used in biology by Walter B.
