LF is a protein with multiple health-promoting properties. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and anti-tumour activity. The LF consumption from dairy products is insufficient to observe additional health benefits. Therefore, the supplementation or fortification of food products with LF is recommended. Supplementation with LF has a protective effect in obesity, positively influencing BMI and WHR and suppressing appetite. Moreover, LF can be used as a supportive treatment in diabetes by improving glycaemia and reducing inflammation. In addition, in cardiovascular diseases, LF has an antihypertensive effect and improves lipid parameters. Due to its ability to bind iron, it has also been used to treat iron deficiency and anaemia.
Take 1 capsule per day with food, or as directed by your qualified healthcare professional.
