A

Colostrum (Bovine)

Supplements

Mechanism

First milk containing immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA, IgM), lactoferrin, growth factors (IGF-1, TGF-beta), and proline-rich polypeptides. Seals gut barrier, modulates immune function, enhances mucosal immunity, and supports muscle recovery via growth factors.

Contraindications

  • Dairy allergy
  • Milk protein sensitivity
B

Pterostilbene

Supplements

Mechanism

Dimethylated analog of resveratrol with 4x greater oral bioavailability. Activates SIRT1 and AMPK, reduces oxidative stress, and improves lipid profiles. Superior pharmacokinetics compared to resveratrol due to methyl groups protecting against glucuronidation.

Contraindications

  • Hormone-sensitive conditions (mild estrogenic activity)
