Our Commitment to Real Science
Maintaining our integrity while helping our consumers maintain health
We are dedicated to promoting and educating consumers on the benefits of colostrum, we will continue to promote our products with facts and statements supported by solid scientific evidence.
We are investing in clinical research to support the sales of our product. Sterling Technology has a research relationship with South Dakota State University, one of the top agricultural universities in the United States. The results of these studies will give further substantiation to the benefits of ColostrumGold and ColostruMune.
We use real science to back up our claims. The studies that we cite in our company literature are based on colostrum and colostrum-derived constituents — not from constituents that are synthetically produced or derived from other sources.

Colostrum and milk-derived peptide growth factors for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders
Colostrum’s Vital Components
Cytokine’s (Interleukin 1 and 6, Interferon Y and Lymphokines): Shown to stimulate lymph glands and the immune system.
Glycoproteins: The protease inhibitors are digestive factors which have been sown to help immune and growth factors survive the passage through the highly acidic digestive system.
Growth Factors (IGF-1 and IGF-2; TGF-A and TGF-B): Medical studies on anti-aging/healing have shown the vital growth factors Insulin Growth Factors (IGF-1 and IGF-2) and Transforming Growth Factors (TGF-A and TGF-B), nucleotides from bovine colostrum to be identical to human in composition. Further, it has been shown that they can help stimulate normal growth, regeneration and accelerated repair of aged or injured muscle, skin collagen, bone, cartilage and nerve tissues.* These factors also help stimulate the body to burn fat for fuel instead of the body’s own muscle tissue in times of fasting. IGF-1,a peptide that resembles the hormone insulin and other factors support the digestive system
Immunoglobulins: Have been shown to provide a superior support for the immune system.
Interferon: A glycoprotein produced by cells that also support the immune system.
Interleukin-2: A cytokine that stimulates the growth of cells that make up the immune system.
Lactalbumins: Research indicates tremendous possibilities that lactalbumins can be highly effective in supporting the immune system.
Lactoferrin: This protein has been shown to transport essential iron to red blood cells.
Lysozyme: A protein which is thought not to be digested but to persist in the gastrointestinal tract to support healthy bacteria.
Oligosaccharides: A carbohydrate component that allows proliferation of healthy intestinal bacteria.
PRP (Proline-Rich Polypeptide): Shown to possibly support and regulate the thymus gland, it may help calm an overactive immune system and stimulate an under active immune system.
