The immune
response is a defence mechanism by which the body fights infection. It is
divided into two functional systems, the innate immune system and the
adaptive immune system. The innate system is the first line of defence by
which the host combats infectious agents and pathogenic microbes. This is a
non-specific response which proves effective against most infective agents. In
case this primary response is not affective and the invading microbe is lead to
proliferate the adaptive immune system comes into action. The adaptive immune
system produces a specific response in the form of antibodies to the infective
agent that normally proves effective in neutralising that agent. In the case of
the innate system resistance (immunity) is not improved by repeated infection.
The adaptive immune response involves memory and gives rise to resistance
to repeated exposure to the same infective agent. Childhood diseases such as
mumps, measles, and chickenpox produce life-long immunity following an
infection.
Most
infectious agents enter the body proper via the epithelial surfaces of either
the upper respiratory, digestive or genito-urinary tract. Once infectious agents
have penetrated the body a variety of physical and chemical defence mechanisms
come into play to help protect these tissues from most infections. This involves
a specialised set of cells called leukocytes (white blood cells) and
their products that have evolved to help combat infection and disease.
Leukocytes fall into two broad categories of cell types: phagocytes and
lymphocytes. Phagocytes form part of the innate immune system and provide
non-specific immunity. Shark liver oil
supports the production of these
cells. Included in this category are neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils,
monocytes, and macrophages. Lymphocytes form the adaptive immune system and
provide specific immunity. Colostrum supports the formation of
these type of cells when they are needed. There are two types of lymphocytes B
cells and T cells. The B cells are differentiated in the bone marrow
and found mainly in the lymph nodes and spleen. They are the cells that make
antibodies (immunoglobulins). The T cells are differentiated in the thymus
and fulfil two major functions. They regulate the activity of the B cells and
directly attack infectious agents.
Antibodies
belong to the specialised group of bio-active proteins called immunoglobulins (Ig's). They
are glycoproteins and are present in serum and other tissue fluids, including
the milk, of all mammals. Antibodies are produced in response to the host being
exposed to immunogenic foreign (antigens) substances such as
infectious microbes. They are an important element in the adaptive immune
response in that they are directed specifically to the antigen that induced
their formation and that they impart memory. In this manner the body is
effectively prepared to repel any later invasion by the same organism.
Antibodies
are produced by activated B cell lymphocytes (plasma cells). Each plasma cell
secretes one class of antibody and all the antibody produced by a single plasma
cell is of the same specificity. There are five classes of immunoglobulin that
are recognised in mammals IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, and
IgD. The most prevalent class of immunoglobulin in all species of animals is
IgG. The function of these molecules is to bind to invading organisms and to
activate specific actions that help rid the body of disease causing agents.
The
manufacture and use of dairy products, and their associated safety and
nutritional benefits is well known. Southern Country Colostrum is a
natural dairy product manufactured from the early milk of pasture fed,
non-immunised healthy New Zealand cows. New Zealand milk products are renowned

Thorough quality management of the entire manufacturing process, from collection
of the milk, through to packaging and storage, ensures that
