Frequently asked questions.
What is Lactoferrin?
+Lactoferrin is a naturally occurring glycoprotein found in milk that binds iron. Our supplement provides 250mg of high-purity bovine (cow’s milk) lactoferrin per serving as a single active ingredient. This is a factual description of the protein; we make no health claims about it.
Does this product make any health claims?
+No. Lactoferrin has no authorised health claims in the UK or EU, so we make none. We describe what lactoferrin is, its 250mg dose and purity, and the third-party testing — nothing more.
What does "single active ingredient, no fillers" mean?
+It means the capsule contains only lactoferrin and a vegetarian capsule shell — no bulking agents, flow agents or other padding. The 250mg on the label is the dose you actually take.
Is the lactoferrin from milk?
+Yes. It is bovine lactoferrin, sourced from cow’s milk. The label notes it is free from added gluten, soy and artificial colours; as a milk-derived protein it is not suitable for a strict dairy-free or vegan diet.
How do I take it?
+As a food supplement, adults take 2 capsules daily with water. Do not exceed the stated recommended daily dose.
How much lactoferrin is in each serving?
+250mg per serving of 2 capsules, with 30 servings per 60-capsule bottle. The amount is printed on the supplement-facts panel.
Is it third-party tested?
+Yes. The product is tested at an independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory before release, confirming lactoferrin identity, purity and contaminant safety.
Is it suitable for vegetarians?
+The capsule shell is vegetarian (plant-derived HPMC). The lactoferrin itself is sourced from cow’s milk, so the product is suitable for vegetarians who consume dairy-derived ingredients, but not for vegans.
Can I take it with other supplements?
+It is commonly taken as part of a wider routine. If you take prescription medication, speak to your doctor before combining supplements.
Any cautions?
+Food supplements must not replace a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. If pregnant, breastfeeding or on medication, consult a doctor before use. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if adverse reactions occur.
Is it made in the UK?
+Yes. It is manufactured in the United Kingdom in a facility working to GMP standards, and it is third-party tested.
What is your returns policy?
+We offer a 60-day money-back guarantee. If you're not satisfied, contact customer support within 60 days of purchase for a full refund.
How much lactoferrin should I take a day?
+This product provides a 250mg serving of bovine lactoferrin in 2 capsules, taken once daily. Do not exceed the stated recommended daily dose. We make no claims about what any amount does; we simply state the serving size on the label.
What is the difference between lactoferrin and colostrum?
+Colostrum is the first milk produced after birth and contains many components, of which lactoferrin is only one. This product is isolated bovine lactoferrin as a single active ingredient — it is not colostrum, and it is not a colostrum extract.
Is bovine lactoferrin the same as the lactoferrin in human milk?
+They are closely related (homologous) proteins but not identical. Bovine lactoferrin, sourced from cow’s milk, is the form used in the large majority of lactoferrin supplements and is the form used here.
Is this an iron supplement?
+No. Lactoferrin is described as an iron-binding glycoprotein, but this product is not an iron supplement and is not intended as a source of supplemental iron. If you are looking to supplement iron itself, this is not that product.
How should I store it?
+Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight with the lid closed, and keep out of reach of children. Do not use after the best-before date printed on the bottle.
