Alaven Consumer Healthcare launches dietary supplement

5/28/2009

MARIETTA, Ga. Alaven Consumer Healthcare on Wednesday announced the availability of Travelan, a dietary supplement containing bovine colostrum, exclusively on its Web site.

“Whether you're an adventure traveler, you're taking the family on that long-awaited vacation or honeymooning, you want to spend your time seeing the sights and enjoying time off, not being sick,” stated David Swenson, general manager and head of Alaven Consumer Healthcare. “Travelan helps you make the most of your travels by preventing E.coli infection, not just treating it after it occurs.”

According to Alaven, the active ingredient is a clinically tested product that contains antibodies against Enterotoxigenic E. coli bacteria attacks. Bovine colustrum is the first lacteal secretion produced by the mammary gland of a female cow shortly after giving birth.

Infection with E. coli is the leading cause of travelers' diarrhea — often referred to as “Montezuma's Revenge,” “Delhi Belly,” “Bali Belly” or “Traveler's Trots” — and is the most common illness affecting travelers, Alaven stated, citing Centers for Disease Control and Prevention statistics. Each year an estimated 10 million people develop diarrhea while traveling.
