Marker of Inflammation and Infections
Lactoferrin kills bacteria and protects from infections. Therefore, natural lactoferrin levels in our bodies rise during times of infections and inflammation.

To combat bacterial infections, blood lactoferrin rapidly rises and iron levels drop during E. coli infection in the blood in mice

Antioxidant Properties
Because iron can cause oxidative stress, lactoferrin can reduce oxidative stress by binding and removing iron, which prevents cell damage or cell death.

Lactoferrin supplementation can support the immune system as an antioxidant.

Roles in Immunity
There are lactoferrin receptors on many immune cells, so lactoferrin directly affects how these cells function.

Lactoferrin can exert changes on white blood cells, through increasing natural killer cell, neutrophils, and macrophage activities. This increases cytokine, and Nitric Oxide production as well as limit pathogen growth
