Lactoferrin is exceedingly underrated, it's not only indicated for the management of IDA (Iron deficiency anemia), here are other indications for Lactoferrin.
Iron-binding: Sequesters free iron, limiting availability for bacterial growth and reducing oxidative stress.
Antimicrobial: Disrupts bacterial membranes, binds LPS (lipopolysaccharides), and inhibits bacterial adhesion.
Immunomodulation: Enhances activity of T cells, NK cells, and modulates cytokine production.
Antiviral: Interferes with viral entry into host cells (e.g., HSV, HIV, coronaviruses).
Anti-inflammatory: Reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines and promotes mucosal healing.
