The Story
Freddie Rostand's wife Liz has MS and was declining rapidly - could barely walk ¾ mile before collapse. Traditional medicine offered little hope, according to Freddie. An Australian journalist friend shared how bovine colostrum got his wheelchair-bound wife walking again. Within weeks, Liz could walk miles and her life transformed.
What is Colostrum?
- First milk produced after birth, known as "liquid gold"
- Contains 400+ bioactive ingredients
- Acts like an "operating system" for biological processes
- Used for 5,000+ years in traditional medicine
- Farmers have always known its importance - calves die without it
The Science
Gut Health Foundation: 80% of immune system is in the gut. Modern processed foods damage gut lining, causing "leaky gut" and autoimmune disorders.
How Colostrum Works: Contains peptides that allegedly regulate immune system's three stages:
- Activate immune response
- Target specific threats
- Turn off when job done (critical - autoimmune disorders happen when this fails)
Key Benefits, according to Freddie
- Autoimmune conditions: Resets immune system, stops body attacking itself
- Gut health: Repairs damaged gut lining
- Anti-aging: Boosts stem cells, repairs DNA/RNA, supports thymus gland
- Athletic performance: Used by elite athletes (Olympic-approved)
- Mood & brain: Stimulates feel-good chemicals and brain growth factors
Product Details
- Source: Bovine colostrum (surplus only - calves get what they need)
- Processing: Freeze-dried to preserve bioactive compounds
- Form: Capsules (better gut penetration than powder)
- Dosage: 2 capsules daily
- Cost: ~£55 for 2 months (less than £1/day)
Company: IG Bioscience
- IG Bioscience was founded by Freddie & Liz
- Growth through word of mouth
- Also make a pet version: "Run Free" by Bella's Apothecary
Key Takeaways
- Modern food is damaging our guts and immune systems
- Colostrum offers natural way to reset and maintain health
- Continuous use recommended (aging is ongoing process)
- Extensive research backing (hundreds of thousands of studies)
- Safe for all ages, including babies (add to formula)
Bottom Line: Ancient wisdom backed by modern science - colostrum addresses fundamental biological processes rather than just treating symptoms.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
