Individuals who are allergic to dairy products (i.e. experience anaphylaxis) should avoid taking colostrum, as it contains milk proteins and may trigger an anaphylactic reaction. Bovine colostrum is usually tolerated by people with lactose intolerance or lactose sensitivity, especially when a small quantity is consumed. The quantity can be increased as tolerance increases and symptoms are not bothersome. Anyone with a specific health condition or anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding should consult their healthcare provider before taking colostrum supplements.
