Where does this blood come from?
Our Pawsitive Immunity comes from bovine serum collected in New Zealand from grass-fed, hormone and antibiotic free, ethically-raised cows.
Can my animal have it if they're allergic to beef?
Since SBI is derived from a beef source, animals who have an allergy to beef should not use it.
How does it compare to colostrum?
Pawsitive Immunity contains approximately 50% immunoglobulins, compared to 20-25% in colostrum. It binds to a greater number of unfriendly bacteria, pathogens, antigens, and endotoxins, helping to promote the body’s innate resistance to these harmful substances. Additionally, it is more species-appropriate than colostrum. In nature, carnivores would routinely consume the blood of their prey, whereas colostrum is really only intended to be consumed in the first few days of life. Pawsitive Immunity is more aligned with what nature intended for our animals. Colostrum is not recommended for animals with hormone-induced or hormone-reactive cancers, whereas Pawsitive Immunity does not contain the hormones that have the potential to stimulate these cancers.
Can I use this if my animal has an autoimmuen disorder?
Yes! Pawsitive Immunity is not systemic. It binds to antigens in the gut and carries them out of the body through the feces. Being non-systemic and inhibiting pathogens from crossing the gut barrier leads to little to no reaction from the immune cells.
