Abstract Lactoferrin, a multi-functional glycoprotein, is found in body fluids and exocrine glands. It serves as an essential iron-binding protein and has various beneficial properties. It plays a key role in iron regulation, immune modulation, lipid metabolism, gut health, and bone health. It shows potent antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. Its therapeutic potential extends to various conditions, including aging-related and chronic diseases, gastrointestinal health, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. It also shows promise for treating anemia and promoting healthy aging. Understanding its complex interactions with pathogens highlights its role as a modulator of immune responses. This review article emphasizes its multifaceted functions and its potential as a valuable therapeutic agent for human health. Keywords: Lactoferrin, glycoprotein, health, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging.   Introduction Lactoferrin, also known as lactotransferri...
