Lactoferrin: a clinical trial puts immune cells to the test

10/27/2026

Naturally present in milk and certain secretions, lactoferrin has intrigued researchers. A new trial investigated how the immune cells of adults over 50 reacted to viruses following supplementation.

📌︎ Key takeaways
  • ✓A clinical trial compared two doses of bovine lactoferrin in 103 adults aged over 50.
  • ✓After four weeks, the researchers analysed the response of their immune cells when exposed to viruses in the laboratory.
  • ✓Several immune markers and cell populations showed different changes depending on the dose administered.
  • ✓The participants were never infected: only their immune cells were studied ex vivo.
  • ✓This study provides new insights into the immune responses observed following supplementation, without demonstrating protection against infections.
