He says colostrum is better than vaccines.

I've always liked this guy so far. I strongly believe vaccines should never be used and colostrum is a great thing. However, I don't know if there are any colostrum products out there on the market that are good enough or work close enough to how it should. Of course, getting it directly from the source would be great. I wish they made some human colostrum. As weird as that sounds, I would go for it right away. In fact, I think I need it due to all of the damage my body has gone through over the years.

I plan on getting some human colostrum as soon as I have kids

I pretty sure he says, the cow specifically has alot of excess colostrum to give because it is a uber cow. He makes a joke about human colostrum but he does make it seem like there would not be enough in humans. I'm pretty sure he's not big on fresh milk, but he says very little positive about milk here in general it seems, I guess because of the audience.

I think I have seen this stuff for sale from organic pastures. Has anyone tried it? I always wondered how it tastes.

I might not be the best person to answer, because I think all raw unsalted dairy other than milk tastes pretty disgusting, but I get fresh colostrum usually once a month and it tastes well- really disgusting. both colostrum and kefir to me is like drinking cough medicine with alcohol. I'd rather blend a kidney with an orange and have someone regurgitate it into my mouth. I believe it is beneficial though and has to be far superior to the powder. Like a good alcohol or whatever, the unpleasantness has some enjoyment to it, particularly here because the colostrum feels nourishing.

Found this for you guys off of the organicpastures.com FAQ:

Raw milk has many (not all) of the same elements contained in Colostrum, just at much lower concentrations.

So for those who drink raw milk regularly, colostrum is something that is not as beneficial?

Daniel is pitching it more as a supplement for non-animal food eaters or to bridge them into animal foods, but from his schtick I doubt he would agree. I don't actually drink milk so I would much rather get it in a concentration. I guess if it were true there would still be reasons for getting it from colostrum still, but coming from OP this sounds bogus. Its sort of paradoxical reasoning for getting the nutrients form milk anyway to make up for something you were supposed to get but didn't.. If the baby could just got what it needed from milk, there would be no reason for the colostrum..I would think.

I though using the word "tits" would be vulgar so I said ducts.
Forty ducts?! thanks for sharing, I did not know that.
This solidifies my idea that the little spawn could share a little. LOL
