Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 is the x-factor the stuff that comes from the first milk when a new calf is borne that contains the factors that build the calf's immune system? if so, i know some menonites in north-carolina that sell it (for animal use only). they know someone who extracts it from the first milk, and bottles it. they use it for their family and when their cows get sick as they do not feed the cows antibiotics (i doubt the give their family antibiotics as well)--they use this instead. i found it fairly interesting, i had never heard of it before i talked to them one morning when buying my milk, as i caught part of their discussion with someone who was also buying some 'pet-milk' from them. i beleive that you may be able to find it it you talk to menonite dairy farmers in the south-east. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
