Meet lactoferrin, the protein most people have never heard of.
Lactoferrin is an iron-binding protein your body already makes. It’s found in tears, saliva and breast milk, and is most concentrated in colostrum, the first milk.
LODE delivers it in two capsules a day, sourced from New Zealand, to support four things at once:*

Low iron, a run-down immune system, an unsettled gut or breakouts. One protein that supports all four.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is lactoferrin?
Lactoferrin is a protein your body already makes. It’s found in tears, saliva and breast milk, and is most concentrated in colostrum, the first milk. It binds iron and is part of your body’s natural defenses. LODE’s lactoferrin is sourced from New Zealand.
How does it work?
- Iron: it binds iron and helps carry it to where your body absorbs it, with no added iron. A review of 11 studies found it raised ferritin more than ferrous sulfate (Zhao et al., 2022).*
- Immunity: it’s part of your body’s natural defense and supports healthy immune function (Superti, 2020).*
- Gut: lab research shows it helps beneficial Bifidobacteria grow (Oda et al., 2014).*
- Skin: in a 12-week study of 36 adults, 200 mg a day in fermented milk was linked to 31% less skin oil and fewer blemishes than placebo (Kim et al., 2010).*
These studies looked at lactoferrin, not LODE specifically, and doses may differ.
Who is it for?
Lactoferrin is a good fit if you want support with any of these:
- Iron and energy: heavy periods, hard training or a plant-based diet.*
- Immunity: frequent travel, kids at school, or simply wanting year-round support.*
- Gut: occasional bloating, a sensitive stomach, or rebuilding after antibiotics.*
- Skin: oily or breakout-prone skin, without harsh topicals.*
How do I take it?
Take two capsules a day, at the same time each day. For best results, take it consistently for at least 8 to 12 weeks.
Does it contain iron?
No. There is no added iron. Lactoferrin binds the iron you already get from food and helps carry it to where your body absorbs it.*
Is it dairy-free?
No. Lactoferrin is a milk protein, so LODE Lactoferrin contains milk. Don’t take it if you have a milk allergy. If you’re lactose intolerant, check with your healthcare provider first.
When will I see results?
Lactoferrin works gradually, so give it at least 8 to 12 weeks of daily use. Individual results vary.
Can I take it with other supplements or medications?
Please check with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or managing a medical condition.
Can I skip, pause or cancel my subscription?
Yes. You can skip, pause or cancel anytime from your account before your next order ships.
