Forget Superfoods—Support Total Body Wellness With Surthrival Colostrum, Nature's Complete Whole Food

Surthrival Colostrum offers a pure, high-potency colostrum supplement optimized for human health at all ages

BIDDEFORD, Maine (June 15, 2023) – We’ve long heard about the health benefits of the colostrum found in breast milk. Study after study shows that colostrum is packed with nutrients that are key for the development and survival of baby humans and other mammals. Because it’s often the first nutrition infant humans receive, colostrum contains more than 90 compounds our bodies and brains need to develop and thrive.

But colostrum’s health benefits aren’t just restricted to infants. Thousands of published studies show colostrum can optimize health at all stages of human life. That’s why Surthrival, a Maine-based company dedicated to providing dietary supplements that support peak nutrition and optimal wellness, is proud to offer a highly potent, responsibly sourced, non-GMO colostrum dietary supplement designed to be consumed by people of all ages.

Surthrival Colostrum is the only colostrum dietary supplement optimized for human health. Research shows that supplementing with Surthrival Colostrum powder or capsules can:

  • Balance immune function

  • Promote healthy digestion and overall gut health

  • Improve cognitive function

  • Increase endurance and lean muscle mass

  • Maintain healthy joints, cartilage and musculature

  • Shorten recovery time after exercise

Considering all of these health benefits, is it any wonder that Surthrival Colostrum is referred to as “immune milk” and the “first food for second chances”?

Surthrival's natural, ethically harvested colostrum
Research shows that colostrum is a complete food packed with all of the essential amino acids used to build protein, immunoglobulins that play a key role in immune defenses, prebiotics that help protect the gut microbiome, and major growth factors that can help increase lean muscle mass and the body’s fat-burning capacity. Colostrum is also an excellent source of vitamins A, B, D, E and K, along with key minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium and phosphorus.

Because most of the compounds in bovine colostrum are functionally identical to those in human colostrum, Surthrival Colostrum is ethically harvested and sourced from cows raised on dairy farms throughout the United States. Colostrum is vital for a newborn calf to thrive into adulthood, as it contains all of the immune factors necessary for the calf to survive. Consequently, Surthrival Colostrum is collected only after the newborn calf consumes all of the colostrum it needs. 

To transform this colostrum into a dietary supplement, it must be processed from a liquid into a powder. But unlike other colostrum powders on the market today, Surthival Colostrum retains its whole-food form after processing. This ensures that Surthrival Colostrum contains all of its bioactive nutrients in their purest forms—just as nature intended. 

No excipients or fillers are ever added, and Surthrival Colostrum is transported to and processed in a U.S. GMP-certified facility using strict refrigeration protocols. The end result is a clean, high-potency colostrum dietary supplement optimized for human health.  

The sumptuous health solution
Surthrival Colostrum comes in two easy-to-use versions: a shelf-stable powder (6.5 ounce, 1 kilo or 2 kilos) or 180-count capsules. Rich and creamy-tasting, it’s available unflavored or in three naturally sourced flavors: 

  • Chocolate, made with organic, unroasted cacao powder

  • Strawberry, made with real strawberry juice powder

  • Vanilla, made with organic vanilla bean extract 

Simply blend 1 teaspoon of unflavored Surthrival Colostrum Powder into your favorite smoothie recipe twice a day to support and sustain your daily life. Flavored Surthrival Colostrum Powder is water soluble, so your twice-daily teaspoon can be blended into a smoothie, water, juice, or even coffee. 

Whether you’re working your movement game hard or trying to build a healthy baseline, Surthrival Colostrum is your “Plan A” to “level-up” along your journey!

Outdoor Channel’s WildFed Season 3 Emphasizes Modern-Day Hunting and Gathering, Ecology, Wild Foods and Culinary Adventure

WildFed host and Surthrival co-founder Daniel Vitalis helps people deepen their connection with the natural world.

BIDDEFORD, Maine (March 27, 2023) – WildFed, the wild-food culinary adventure series that offers a fresh take on outdoor television, is currently airing its third season on the Outdoor Channel and the Frndly TV app. In its biggest and best season ever, WildFed 2023 includes 10 shows highlighting adventures like prairie dog hunting in the Dakotas, the iconic alewife run in Maine, feasting with the world-renowned foraging expert Sam Thayer, hunting invasive species on the rugged island of Molokai and more.

WildFed, which airs on Mondays at 7:30 p.m. ET as part of the Outdoor Channel’s “Taste of the Wild” block, takes a thoughtful, artistic approach to modern-day hunting and gathering, with a strong emphasis on ecology. Every episode ends with a beautiful and delicious meal made with hunted, fished or foraged ingredients.

“We’ve been working hard to create a new niche in the hunting and outdoor media space, with a focus more on wild foods than hunting specifically,” says WildFed founder and host Daniel Vitalis. “We emphasize culinary adventure, ecological literacy, relationship with the landscape and great storytelling about species, people and food.”

After learning to hunt, fish and forage as an adult, Vitalis created WildFed to inspire others to start their own wild-food journeys. Along with his work with WildFed, Vitalis is a Registered Maine Guide, writer, public speaker, interviewer and lifestyle pioneer who co-founded the supplements and superfood company Surthrival in 2008. 

Surthrival’s products, which include sustainably foraged black walnut protein powder, elk antler concentrate, bovine colostrum powder, reishi mushroom extract, vitamin D3/K2, and CBD for pets and people, are designed to help ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things. 

“I think of it as ‘empowerment fuel’ for performance, health, recovery and peace of mind,” Vitalis says. 

Both Surthrival and WildFed are key parts of Vitalis’ mission to help people reconnect with wildness, both inside and outside themselves. For instance, in WildFed Season 3 Episode 10, “Snowshoe Hare and Black Walnuts,” Vitalis and Chef Tony Seichrist chase snowshoe hares with beagles across the frozen landscape, and then prepare a feast made with the snowshoe hares and black walnuts Vitalis harvested in Missouri alongside members of a family company devoted to wild food. 

WildFed’s Season 3 lineup includes: 

Episode 1 - Turkey and Brackenfern
Episode 2 - Alewives and Birch Syrup
Episode 3 - Black Buck and Wild Salad
Episode 4 - Prairie Dog and Prairie Turnip
Episode 5 - Wisconsin Crayfish, Berries and Cattails with Sam Thayer
Episode 6 - Axis Deer and Tropical Fruit Foraging
Episode 7 - Swordfish and Maryland Fish and Crabs
Episode 8 - Archery Deer, Mackerel and Mushroom
Episode 9 - Sea Duck and Autumn Olive
Episode 10 - Snowshoe Hare and Black Walnuts

Previews for each episode are available on the Outdoor Channel website, and all episodes are streamed on the Frndly TV app. 

You can also deepen your connection with the natural world through hunting, fishing, foraging and, of course, food, via the WildFed podcast — which one user called “the most forward (yet backward) thinking hunting show out there, presenting the most well-rounded approach to being a human that is possible in the 21st century.”

About WildFed
WildFed is a show, podcast and lifestyle brand that integrates hunting, fishing, foraging and ecology with nutrition, cooking, community and outdoor adventure. Hosted by lifestyle pioneer Daniel Vitalis, co-founder of supplements and superfood company Surthrival, WildFed is designed to reconnect people with wildness through food. WildFed is dedicated to modern-day hunting and gathering methods that support healthy lifestyles for both people and the planet and that help sustain our wild future.
