This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the protective effects of bovine colostrum against childhood infectious diarrhea. A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane Library databases and clinicaltrial.gov. Among 166 research articles, only five RCTs were included into final analysis. Review manager (version 5.2) was used to pool the effect-size across studies. Sensitivity and risk of bias were estimated accordingly. Under a pooled analysis, bovine colostrum consumption correlated with a significant reduction in stool frequency of infectious diarrhea, by 1.42 times per day (95% CI: −2.70, −0.14). Bovine colostrum intervention also reduced occurrence of diarrhea by 71% (pooled OR = 0.29, 95%CI 0.16, 0.52). The OR of positive detection of pathogen in the stool was 0.29 (95%CI 0.08, 0.71) in bovine colostrum treated group, compared with placebo group. In the sensitivity analysis of studies with low risk of biases, bovine colostrum significantly reduced stool frequency, occurrence of diarrhea and pathogen detection. BC and related products have a significant benefit in reducing the frequency and relieving the symptoms of childhood infectious diarrhea.
