I've never heard of this company and can't find any information on them. Are they legit?

No, they aren't legit. This is the only product they sell. The manufacturer's address listed on the bottle is a residential address. There is no website. I found this out when I started researching them, because when I cut open the capsule, I found only oil, no lactoferrin that I could tell. When I tried contacting them about this, they sent back a generic response and never responded again.

Is this similar to colostrum from cows?

Lactoferrin is a protein that is naturally present in cow milk, as well as in colostrum, the first milk produced by cows and other mammals after giving birth.

Where is it extracted from? Human milk or cow milk?

Lactoferrin is extracted from cow milk. Most of the lactoferrin used commercially is derived from cow milk, as it is more readily available in larger quantities.

Does lactoferrin actually contain trace amounts of iron or is it just an iron absorption enhancer?

Lactoferrin actually does not contain iron itself. It is a natural iron-binding protein, meaning that it can bind to iron ions and transport them in the body. While lactoferrin is not a source of dietary iron, its iron-binding ability can enhance iron absorption and utilization in the body.
