On August 20 12 13, the Ministry of Health said in a routine press conference and "bovine colostrum ban" that bovine colostrum ban means that it is not allowed to be added to infant formula foods, and it can be added to other foods. This regulation will be implemented on September 20 12 1 day.

Bovine colostrum is the milk of cows within 3 days after calving, which contains a lot of immunoglobulin and can resist calf disease. Human and cattle are two different species, and the immune spectrum of bovine colostrum overlaps with human, but the overlapping part is very small. It is unrealistic to try to prevent human diseases by drinking bovine colostrum.

The composition of colostrum varies greatly among different mammals. Casein is the main ingredient in bovine colostrum, which is not suitable for infants, because the acidity of bovine colostrum is too high, and the ratio of whey protein to casein is not suitable, and the content of protein is too high for infants to adapt. Babies who have already added complementary food should not be given colostrum prematurely, otherwise there is an allergic risk.
