A quote from Mark Renton (a character from the movie Trainspotting) comes to mind after reading your post: “It’s a tightrope Spud, a fucking tightrope” (said in a Scottish accent so that you will forgive the profanity). That is what the practice of medicine has become. There is too much money involved in medicine that obscures objectivity. A mentor of mine once said “If you get rich practicing medicine, you are doing it wrong”.

This might be an unusual question, but do you know if the colostrum is sourced from cows who are sent to a sanctuary when they can no longer provide the colostrum? I'm trying to make the most compassionate choices possible. I think the powdered colostrum is likely an effective supplement, and probably very high quality. But if the cows do not get to retire to a sanctuary, my guilt woll be too much - the other option for retired dairy cows makes me too sad. I just can't. 💜

A really thought-provoking read over my morning coffee whilst I should be working, reflecting some thoughts I've been having lately. I'm looking forward to your other recommended pieces of writing provided at the end of this one.

Kinda how I've been feeling about this subject for a very long time. More articulate than anything I could state, I'm a sweary arsehole on a good day, you can guess the bad! Thank you
