Anyone ever drink raw colostrum, if so please share your experience with it.

  I used to think it was God's beverage or food of choice.  Big difference between goats and cows.  Cow's is great tasting, especially if you get the fist milking and skim off the fattiest portions that separate to the top.  Problem is that it is very rare to find grass fed cows just having given birth.  But energy wise it was great, and I pretty close came to be addicted to it.  Second or third or fourth milking is truly inferior stuff and can be more like milk than milkshake like first milking.  I didn't have anything to heal, so I can't comment on it's healing properties, but certainly didn't do any harm.  I tend to not do dairy at all now, and have no idea as to how it would sit.  I searched it out when I was relying on my own grass fed goats milk/kefir/yogurt in raw preparation.  If one was trying hard to put on weight by exercise or other, I would think one could gain appreciably with colostrum.     Stay away from inorganic non grass fed grained cows that get medication or drugs.

Thanks, I tried both Organic Raw Cow and Goats Milk but not the colostrum yet. I  recently gave up the goats milk, duet to its sour taste. I am not crazy about milk but I like it. Though the cream is where its at. I am presently cutting so I am thinkng about saving the colostrum for when I bulk.

I tasted my wife's human colostrum. 
But I knew it was reserved for my kids.

    My Mom gave it to me when she gave birth to me.  I thank all involved.  Besides that I tried it twice from cow, Organic Pastures, I wasn't impressed enough to continue.  I'm sure colostrum has great benefits, but I feel it's better for the babies.

Organic pastures' colostrum is nothing like first milking colostrum.  First milking colostrum is thick and creamy, and sweet.  OPs' is more like third milking.  Remember,  the cow or goat builds and stores the colostrum for days if not weeks just prior to birth.  After the first milking, the animal makes or fills the utter in a matter of hours.  That first bit is what kick starts the newborn to get going with sugars and hormones, seals it's intestines and provides the anitbodies needed for life, as well as providing and energetic quality most don't consider ( some feel that after about four hours, milk has lost an energetic quality).
