4Life Transfer Factor Immune System Support
The story of transfer factors and nanofractions
For more than a decade, 4Life® (the immune system company) has led the industry in immune system discovery and innovation. Where did it all begin? With the revolutionary molecules in your own body.
Transfer Factors®
In 1996, 4Life Chief Executive Officer David Lisonbee came across a patent for the extraction of transfer factors. Transfer factors are molecules found within the immune systems of all mammals and birds. Dubbed “the memory molecules,” transfer factors serve as important components of the immune system throughout your entire life.
In 1998, 4Life licensed the patent to extract transfer factors from cow colostrum. In the years that followed, 4Life launched new products, stabilized transfer factors in liquid form, patented the extraction of transfer factors from chicken egg yolks, and combined our two sources for a truly synergistic formula.
NanofractionsTM
Scientists have known that smaller molecules than transfer factors existed within colostrum, but they never determined if they had any immune activity. In 2007, David Lisonbee and the 4Life Research and Development team isolated these nanofraction molecules, tested them, and determined their potential to support the immune system.
Nanofractions are low-weight molecules found in the immune systems of certain mammals and birds. They function as part of the “command and control” network of the immune system.
Transfer factors and nanofractions transfer immune memory, knowledge, and wisdom from one entity to another. The two most abundant and safest sources for transfer factors and nanofractions are cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks. Because these molecules aren’t species-specific, we can benefit from the knowledge gained by these animals during their lifetimes by transferring that knowledge from their immune cells to ours.
A Real-Life Analogy
On their own, 4Life Transfer Factor® and NanoFactor™ each provide powerful support. But the real secret of their power comes into play when you combine them.
Let's use a real-life analogy: The central air conditioning system in your home recognizes when it becomes warm and rallies help to turn the air on before the temperature becomes too hot. The digital thermostat makes fine-tuned adjustments-how long to keep the air on, how cold the air should be, when to turn the air off-to make sure the temperature is just right.
Your immune system works the same way. When your body encounters a problem, 4Life Transfer Factor possesses intelligence. Just like the air conditioning system, it recognizes the problem and issues the call to action. NanoFactor has the intuition to make fine-tuned adjustments as a digital thermostat would, sending out immune cells where and when they’re needed, and calling them back when the threat is over.
Both intelligence and intuition are needed for optimal immune system response.
Heroic Immune System
Talk about strong… no matter what your immune system needs, Tri-Factor Formula delivers. That’s an immune system with some impressive muscles!
Studies have proven that when your body needs it, Tri-Factor Formula provides great boosting ability. It dramatically increases Natural Killer cell activity by 437 percent—those immune cells on the front lines—and helps you continue enjoying optimal health. Studies have also shown that Tri-Factor Formula, with the intuition of NanoFactor™, provides great balancing support. When your immune system responds to false signals and becomes overactive, Tri-Factor Formula can help the immune system calm down. And it does it significantly better than our competitors’ products.

3. Q&A: 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR
What are transfer factors and how do they work?
Soon after giving birth, female mammals produce colostrum, which is a milk-like substance that jump-starts a newborn's immune system. Researchers now believe that the benefits of colostrum don't necessarily end there.
Transfer Factor is a set of messaging molecules that convey immune information within an individual's immune system. Nature also uses transfer factor to carry immune information from one individual's immune system to another individual. This in fact is how it got its name: by being the factor that transferred immunity from one person to another. Transfer factors are the primary communications used by the immune system to defend against harmful microbial threats. Transfer factors are small molecules that occur naturally in all mammals and are passed from mother to newborn through the mother's first milk called colostrum. By transferring information from cell to cell, transfer factors serve as "teachers" to the cells, ensuring a strong immune system capable of surviving, even thriving, in its new environment.
How was Transfer Factor discovered?
In 1949 Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence was working on the problem of tuberculosis. What he was trying to discover was if any component of the blood could convey a tubercular sensitivity from an exposed recovered donor to a naive recipient. Whole blood transfusions could be used but only between people of the same blood type. Lawrence first separated the blood's immune cells, the lymphocytes or white blood cells, from the whole blood. Then he broke open the lymphocytes and separated the contents of the cells into various size fractions. What he found was that a fraction of small molecules was able to transfer tuberculin sensitivity to a naive recipient. This is what Dr. Lawrence called transfer factor.
Is blood the only source of transfer factor?
Originally it was. It was not until the mid 1980's that two researchers came up with the idea that Transfer Factor may also be present in colostrum. The confirmation of this discovery was awarded a patent in 1989. Colostrum is now the best source of transfer factor.
What is colostrum?
It is the first milk that a mother produces immediately after giving birth.
What prompted these scientists to look for Transfer Factor in colostrum?
Those who have worked with cattle know that if a calf is not allowed to nurse from its mother it will most often die within a short time. The calves would die in spite of an abundance of food. Death in these cases was cause by infections brought on by the most common organisms. For whatever reason the immune systems of these calves were not working. Seeing this suggests that there is some kind of immune information was being transferred from the mother and her infant. The logical question then became: was it transfer factor? The answer was a resounding YES!
Transfer factors are isolated from colostrum, what about milk allergies and lactose intolerance?
Milk allergies are caused by the large milk proteins, primarily casein, and to a lesser extent the immunoglobulins. These proteins are completely removed from the transfer factor. Lactose intolerance is most common in Oriental populations; much less so in those of European or African decent. We are conscience of this concern and remove the lactose from our product.
Are there any differences between dried colostrum and 4Life’s Transfer Factor XF?
Unlike colostrum, Transfer Factor XF contains a concentrated amount of transfer factors, the active ingredient found in colostrum. Through a special patented process licensed to 4Life, transfer factors are separated from other components found in this “first milk.” Transfer factors readily survive digestion and are easily absorbed, unlike the antibodies and proteins found in colostrum. In addition, Transfer Factor XF has undergone a special stabilization process to protect the effectiveness of the transfer factors.
Is Transfer factors only good for newborns? Transfer Factor is good for everyone who needs an extra immune boost.
Is transfer factor safe for infants?
Colostral transfer factor was designed by Nature for newborns. Removal of the milk allergens and lactose leaves only the essence of the immunological information in the form of transfer factors.
Who can benefit from taking Transfer Factor XF?
Everyone who needs an extra immune boost can benefit from taking Transfer Factor XF.
Can pregnant women take Transfer Factor XF?
There have been no adverse responses reported while taking Transfer Factor XF during pregnancy, but as with any supplement, consult a physician.
Why should I use Transfer Factor XF if I received immune information as an infant?
The transfer factors we received from our mothers as infants helped educate and strengthen our naïve immune systems for the challenges of that time. Today, more than ever, we are exposed to new immune
challenges, while our immune systems have become weakened with age. Strengthening our immune systems can be critical to lifelong health.
How often should I take Transfer Factor XF?
Every day our bodies create new immune cells that need instruction. To meet this need, Transfer Factor XF should be used on a daily basis to provide the immune system with continual support against an environment filled with new and emerging health challenges. Transfer Factor XF, taken on a daily basis, provides effective support for the immune system.
If transfer factors is so effective why hasn't the pharmaceutical industry jumped on transfer factors?
I think that is exactly what we are seeing in many foreign countries notably China, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Japan. In the US transfer factor has had an interesting history. The idea of transfer factor flies in the face of conventional immunology. In the 50’s antibiotics were the golden child of medicine followed in the 60's by steroids like cortisone for inflammation and the synthetic steroid hormones like ethinyl estrogen and progestin that were used to create the birth control pill. After an initial delay transfer factor hit its heyday in the 70's and early 80's. Results however were inconsistent as researchers dove in sometimes with more enthusiasm than skill. The key feature that was missing in these investigations was a dependable assay technique for quality control of the product. The quality control issue was not resolved until the mid 1980's.
Given that transfer factor is not a single entity, the pharmaceutical companies had fits to trying to purify the material without losing efficacy. This force-fit into the single-entity, single-function drug dogma was disastrous. The next issue that slowed transfer factor research is the age-old issue of funding. When AIDS hit the popular press politicians shifted funding into AIDS research but with the focus on finding the cause and then finding a drug that would cure AIDS. The work of a few dedicated, but under-funded, researchers and the inability of the mainstream medical-pharmaceutical industry have combined to again focus attention on transfer factor as one of the few modalities that is effective against diseases of viral origin.
Are there reasons why we haven't seen transfer factor as a food supplement before now? Yes, there are two doors that recently have opened that allow transfer factor to be effectively marketed now. The first door to open was the passage of DSHEA in 1994. The provision for structure-functions claims allows the story of transfer factor to be told without jeopardizing its status as a nutritional supplement. The second is technical. Transfer factor was definitely an idea way ahead of its time and it had to wait for technology to catch up. The processing methods that allow for large-scale extraction of transfer factor have only recently been perfected and a commercial product has only been available for the past ten year.
How does one discuss transfer factors in terms of structure-function claims?
Simplistically, transfer factor strengthens the immune system. But that is simplistic and could be used to describe a number of herbal products and other supplements. Let me answer the question by first reiterating that transfer factor is not just a single entity. Transfer factor is in fact a complex mixture containing three separate fractions. These three fractions are an INDUCER fraction, and ANTIGEN SPECIFIC fraction, and a SUPPRESSOR fraction. Since our immune systems fight the microbe wars for us, let me use a military analogy to explain these three functions. The inducer fraction serves as the drill Sargent of basic training whipping the immune system into shape but not telling them who to go out and attack. The antigen specific fraction is like a set of wanted posters identifying critical features of the bad guys. If we were microbes these specific identifiers would be our fingerprints, mug shots, etc.
Similarly a whole set of transfer factors are made against a single microbe type. Finally the suppressor fraction is like the politicians who declare an end to the war and demobilize the troops. Without this action a lot of excessive damage is done both in war and within ourselves. When our immune system does not demobilize or overreacts we suffer from autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and allergies. Unlike most immune supplements, that provide the building blocks for proper immune function, transfer factor is immune intelligence. It is immune information and education that focuses the immune system keeping it on task and effective. This is a whole new concept in immune system strengthening.
Is Transfer Factor FDA approved?
Foods and dietary supplements are not approved by the FDA and food supplements derived from milk would certainly fall under the category of Generally Recognized As Safe [GRAS].
What is the difference between transfer factors and colostrum?
Transfer factors are the most powerful part of colostrum. Colostrum contains bovine specific antibodies that can cause allergic reactions. However, transfer factors are not species-specific and can be given to another mammal without reaction.
Who makes transfer factor?
Through a special patented process licensed to 4Life Research™ www.4-life.com, transfer factors are extracted from cow colostrum. 4Life's™ transfer factors naturally supports the body's immune system, communicating immune information more efficiently among the cells in the body.

4. TRANSFER FACTOR RESEARCH
Recently we reported the initial results of a groundbreaking independent study using Transfer Factor and Transfer Factor Plus . Both yielded unprecedented results in a study done by the Institute of Longevity Medicine in California, a laboratory recognized for its research and expertise in measuring the ability of ingredients to significantly boost the immune system.
Transfer Factor and Transfer Factor Plus were tested for their ability to increase Natural Killer Cell (NK) activity. The researchers used peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from human volunteers. Test results showed that Transfer Factor boosted NK cell activity 103% above normal immune response without supplementation, more than two times higher than the next highest product. The study also showed that Transfer Factor Plus increased the NK cell activity 248% above normal immune response without supplementation, or about five times higher than any of the other previously tested products.
Natural Killer Cells are an important part of our body's immune system. They seek and destroy harmful cells through direct contact. Natural Killer Cells are especially important in strengthening and supporting the immune system.
David Lisonbee, CEO of 4Life Research, in response to this research said, "These recent findings support and substantiate the reports from thousands of distributors who use Transfer Factor and Transfer Factor Plus. The study also supports many other clinical experiences and studies we are familiar with. We are very pleased with the study results, they come as no surprise to us."

Independent Bio-Assay Overview
December 11, 1998
Salt Lake City, UT - 4Life Research, a Provo, Utah research and development company released its latest assaying and testing for its new 4Life Transfer Factor product.
Transfer factor is a scientifically recognized delivery system for transferring immune system advantages from one species to another. In the patented process licensed to 4Life, immune factors are generated in cows and then "transferred" as a nutritional supplement to humans. Products manufactured incorporating the process are anticipated by industry experts to be the "next wave" of nutritional supplementation, operating in the newly defined area of "structure/function" claims. Dr. William Hennen, who is one of the world authorities on transfer factor, says of the science and technology: "Transfer factor is a material that has the ability to modulate the immune system. 4Life Transfer Factor contains both materials that help the immune system respond more effectively and materials to make sure the immune system is not over-responding."
4Life's founder and president, David Lisonbee said, "4Life has an agreement with the patent inventors to market transfer factor. United States Patent No. 4,816,563, issued on March 28, 1989, is licensed to 4Life. This patent describes the proprietary process used by 4Life to create its unique Transfer Factor.
The only patent 4Life is aware of which identifies transfer factor in colostrum, the process for obtaining transfer factor from colostrum and whey, and the patented method "to further concentrate and/or purify transfer factor" from colostrum, is the one licensed to 4Life. It is United States Patent No. 4,816,563.
Laboratory Testing of 4Life's Transfer Factor
According to William Hennen, Ph.D., Vice President of Research and Development at 4Life, "Each and every batch of Transfer Factor is tested by an independent laboratory with established, documented credentials in assessing for transfer factor activity. Very few laboratories have the experience or credentials to assay for TF activity. We go to great lengths to assure the quality of transfer factor in our product. This is the reason our distributors are consistently having such great success with Transfer Factor . From infants to the elderly, reports keep coming in every day with results that have matched or exceeded our every expectation. Transfer factor has nearly 50 years of research and over 3,000 clinical studies and scientific papers proving its existence and effectiveness. Our licensed patent proved for the first time that transfer factor exists in colostrum and that it can be successfully extracted and assayed."

Independent laboratory tests clearly indicate that 4Life's Transfer Factor shows significant transfer factor activity equal to the effectiveness of the standard vaccine.
The biological and chemical testing laboratory, BioLogics Inc. states the following regarding 4Life's Transfer Factor :
"BioLogics Inc. has completed testing the preparations of bovine colostrum you sent for evaluation for TF (transfer factor) activity. Each preparation was evaluated for TF activity using a mouse foot- pad assay which measures delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH). The results are shown below. A preparation was considered active if it induced significant DTH (p<0.005>P>0.001 YES (P<0.01)>P>0.10 NO (P>0.10) Failed
4Life Transfer Factor
Patented extract of colostrum 0.01>P>0.001 YES (P<0.01)>P>0.001 YES (P<0.01)>P>0.10 NO (P>0.10) Failed
4Life Transfer Factor
Patented extract of colostrum 0.01>P>0.001 YES (P<0.01) Very Active
"Further, it is critical to understand that a proper transfer factor assay includes both a zero-point standard and a high-end standard (to set the span of the scale.) The zero-point standard accounts for the nutritional value of the transfer factor preparation and is represented by the fractionated colostrum listed in the second row above. A vaccinated control is the GOLD STANDARD for establishing the high-end of the immunological scale as represented in the first row.
As was clearly shown, 4Life's Transfer Factor was not only measurably more potent than the normal colostrum of the second row, it was equal to the vaccine standard in causing a strong immune response," stated Dr. Hennen.
Top Transfer Factor Researcher Tests 4Life's Transfer Factor
One of the world's leading TF researchers has also tested 4Life's Transfer Factor using a mouse foot-pad assay.
"Three different colostrum extracts were tested, one of which was 4Life's Transfer Factor . 4Life's Transfer Factor tested highest in TF activity of any of the samples tested."
Retrospective Study
by Dr. David Markowitz
As a means of introducing myself, let me share some of my background with you. I have been a practicing General Pediatrician for the past 18 years, the last ten of which I have been in Kennebunk Maine. I trained at the University of Connecticut for Medical School, Internship and Residency in Pediatrics, and a Fellowship in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology (childhood cancer). I have encouraged our patient population to use natural products to boost their inherent health and help prevent disease for the past ten years. Most of my knowledge about this natural approach is self-taught, because little if any nutrition or prevention is taught in traditional medical school. Thankfully, this is changing. You are forcing this change because you now demand of your practitioners to learn more as you ask detailed questions of them. (Good for you!)
I joined 4Life Research in the summer of 1998 because of my commitment to a natural approach to Health and Wellness and because of my belief in Transfer Factor and in the people who lead this Company. This decision has changed my life and the lives of many patients and patient famiies! OUR EARLY PRACTICE EXPERIENCE: We have introduced Transfer Factor to over 150 families with now over 200 persons using Transfer Factor on a daily basis. I now review the charts of these children on an every two month basis. The facts back up our general impression of greater health and less illness in these children. Effective 2/1/99, we have seen 80% less illness reported to us in these kids and 85% less use of antibiotics, when we compare their histories of last sick season to this year. We will soon match Transfer Factor users to like-aged children not using Transfer Factor and will report those findings when available. Most of our victories in Health have been "quiet", in that we seem to see these transfer factor kids so rarely. Some of our experience has been absolutely remarkable. To share just one with you, we have a 12 year old girl with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (one of the Jerry Lewis muscular dystrophies), who in previous years has had dozens of serious respiratory diseases requiring repeated use of antibiotics to just keep her alive. She this year has used Transfer Factor daily for six months and has required antibiotics just once and has never had a serious chest or respiratory infection. Transfer Factor has changed her life! I will share more with you over time.
Addendum 3/13/99: We now have over 210 patients using Transfer Factor with continued success. One mother who has Hodgkin's Lymphoma now status post chemo and radiation therapy takes Transfer Factor daily: in three months, she has been infection-free with "daily improvement in her health and feeling of well-being" (her words). Her prior history was one with constant respiratory infections due to her severely depressed immune system. Just another quiet victory for Transfer Factor and 4Life Research. Another interesting observation from our patients: if a child stops taking Transfer Factor , we have noticed that within 3-6 weeks, this child is in our office with some infection or another. We know that Transfer Factor has a half-life of about 3 weeks. This observation then fits what we know from the biologic studies. Parents then reorder the Transfer Factor to "never run out". Transfer Factor is indeed a science-based product, just as all the 4Life Research products are.
Addendum 3/18/99: Another "little success story from Maine": We have a beautiful young boy who has suffered with a rare condition called cellular interstitual pneumonitis with multiple episodes of respiratory diseases over the years. After 4 months of Transfer Factor on a daily basis, he has had but one mild upper respiratory infection and no use of antibiotics during one of the worst viral respiratory and flu seasons in southern Maine in a decade. Side effects of Transfer Factor : NONE. Need I say more! We start our age-matched study of our Transfer Factor kids in late April 1999. I will update as data is available.
I am delighted to share with you my appointment to 4 Life Research Medical Advisory Board. We hope to encourage the development of an entire line of children's Health and Wellness products.
Addendum 4/20/99: Just returned from a Wonderful First Leadership Conference. Thank all of you for your kind words and support of children. It is truly heartening to see and feel the commitment. An update as to our kids here locally: review of records show a 79% reduction in reported illness and an 82% reduction in the use of antibiotics. Still truly amazing results with thusfar no untoward side effects. One additional single victory: an 8 year old with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis now on Transfer Factor and FibroAMJ and in FULL remission for 8 weeks and on no traditional allopathic meds. The quality of this child's life has dramatically improved.
Addendum 4/27/99: A hint of what is coming! During the Leadership Conference, Dr. William Hennen announced the introduction of a second generation Transfer Factor product, called Transfer Factor Plus. This will not replace Transfer Factor, just augment it's usefulness, by boosting additional components of the immune system in different and possibly more effective ways, particularly in the body's constant battle against bacterial disease and malignancy. This product, just as all the 4LR products, will cure nothing: it rather boosts the body's ability to handle a multitude of health challenges, in this case, via the immune system. Dr. Hennen will share many more details about T-F Plus in the near future on our website. And 4LR has already starting working on the third and fourth generations of Transfer Factor , each with a promise of greater Health and Wellness!
Addendum 5/5/99: Some wonderful news to share with you. We now have two brothers who carry the diagnosis of Autism, both on Transfer Factor for 4 months. Mother reports a dramatic increase in communication skills and much improved interactions with people and decreased "flapping" behavior. She is quietly delighted (holding her breath!). Our age-matched review will start in late 5/99. Will add details as they become available.
Addendum 5/8/99: More great news, this time using Transfer Factor in an 8 year old with recurrent leukemia on harsh chemotherapy. Since using Transfer Factor the last three months, this young man has has NO untoward side-effects due to chemo and has had no fever episodes requiring admission to hospital and antibiotic use. And he is doing very well with his leukemia as well. Soon he will start on the new T Factors Plus product (June 1999). Will update as progress becomes available.
Addendum 5/15/99: First some quick news: I will be presenting our Transfer Factor experience in Philadelphia this coming Saturday, 5/22/99. Hope to see you there. Additional practice news with some early experience with T-Factors +: As a Medical Advisory Board member, I had three bottles of pre-release Transfer Factor Plus available to me. We used it in a 6 year old with an antibiotic resistant sinusitis (28 day treatment). Within 36 hours of Transfer Factor Plus use, he was TOTALLY CLEAR of congestion, fever, and the thick purulent green nasal discharge had cleared. A 49 year old father of a patient with an undiagnosed mass in his throat and neck: he refused to see his allopathic MD out of fear but wanted to try something "natural". I encouraged him to see his doctor and offered him some Transfer Factor Plus. After three weeks of use, it has been reduced 80% in size. He is delighted and now has promised to see his doctor for a follow-up. We also have two adults with metastatic malignancy who have started on the product with thusfar no feedback. Will keep all informed of their progress. Total patient load now using Transfer Factor is over 250. Have also started the tedious task of an age and sex-matched review of our Transfer Factor experience this past sick season. Will have results within the next three months.
Addendum 5/23/99: Early results from the first of four months of study re: age-matching. We have now compared 25% of our 125 kids on Transfer Factor to like aged and sexed children in the practice who sis not use Transfer Factor : Although preliminary in nature, we see a 62% reduction in reported illness and an 85% reduction in reported antibiotic use in those children who used Transfer Factor daily. I remind all that this is but 25% of the data, so stay tuned for the remainder over the next 2-3 months. Our first two Transfer Factor Plus reports: a 6 year old boy with a 28 day history of antibiotic-resistant sinusitis responded in less than 36 hours of immune boosting with Transfer Factor Plus (one cap twice daily). He was symptom-free at 36 hours! Another experience for the books: a 49 year old with an undiagnosed mass (4-5 cm) in his neck and throat of 4 months duration and growth, who refused to see his allopathic MD out of fear. There is no demonstrable mass in this neck/throat after 23 days of immune-boosting with 2 caps of Transfer Factor Plus three times daily. He was strongly encouraged to see his MD for diagnosis and follow-up. Thusfar he has refused to do so, but we are still working on him. He continues to promise that he will follow up with his physician. More experience with Transfer Factor Plus to follow. Addendum 6/5/99: Our 49 year old father of one of our patients did see his MD and found to have normal exam. Chest X-ray was clear and now remains asymptomatic for 6 weeks on Transfer Factor Plus . We have now compared 45% of our Transfer Factor users to age- and sex-matched patients in the practice for the last 9 months. Still astouding results with 68% less reported illness and 84% less use of antibiotics. We now have used T-Factors Plus in 7 people, 5 with bacterial disease (4 sinusitis and 1 impetigo) and 2 with apparent malignant disease, thusfar with all positive experiences. Total Transfer Factor users in the practice number 250 children and many of their parents. We now encourage all of our Transfer Factor families and new users to stay on Transfer Factor as their immune boosting base and use T-Factors Plus as an additional supplement at times of "stress". Now Transfer Factor, T-Factors Plus, and BioVits fill our patient families' "Health and Wellness" cabinet (notice, not a "medicine" cabinet). More later...
Addendum 7/2/99: And now on to our age/sex-matched study. . . I have now completed a retrospective study comparing kids in the Practice who have used Transfer Factor consistently for six or more months to same sexed and aged children in the Practice who did not use Transfer Factor during the same period. Our computers matched the ages and sexes of the children. All records were reviewed including those of our office, those of cross-covering MD's and the ER and data were compared. The results are indeed remarkable! We found 74% less reported illness and 84% less reported use of antibiotics in the consistent Transfer Factor users when compared to non-Transfer Factor users. 125 Transfer Factor users were reviewed with 87 kids using Transfer Factor consistently for six months or more, aged 8 months to 9 years. We are delighted with these results! We will be preparing manuscripts for submission to various medical journals and hopefully, allowing us to share our results with the more traditional allopathic medical world. A T- Factors Plus experience to report: a 37 year old father of 4 children, diagnosed with advanced Hepatitis C, complicated by gastro-esophageal reflux, chronic constipation, severe fatigue, and sleeplessness. After only 2-3 weeks of Transfer Factor Plus at 2 caps three times daily, this man reports improved liver function testing (by documented lab testing), NO reflux, much improved bowel function (he has stopped all meds!), and now much improved energy and sleep (6-8 hours nightly). We know that Hep C is an "envelope virus" and with improved immune and complement function with Transfer Factor Plus boosting, it would appear that he is now able to better handle this chronic viral infection NATURALLY! Will update you on his condition as time passes. Our 49 year old with the unidentified neck mass continues to be symptom-free and feeling well. More later...
Addendum 7/13/99: People say that Summer is "slow" for networkers. I remind all of you that every day of every month of every season is the right and only time to share these products. And if you think about it, those with Fibro or Chronic Fatigue need us now more than ever. They deserve to feel good during these warm summer months. How about 1-2 months of immune-boosting before the cold weather hits in the Fall. We would all be healthier this coming sick season with 2 months of Transfer Factor or Transfer Factor Plus on board. Traveling this Summer for vacation What an extra-ordinary opportunity to share our Mission and Products with people in other areas. Our goal is to get the word out there that people can live Healthier lives. Summer is "slow" if only you choose it to be that way! Now GO FORTH and share our Vision for Health and Wellness. I look forward to meeting many of you in the San Francisco area at the end of the month! Now fill your Health and Wellness Cabinet with Transfer Factor , Transfer Factor Plus , and the rest of 4LR products and share them with the rest of the World!
I bid you Peace. Dr. David
5. MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS TESTIMONIALS
DOCTOR TESTIMONIES ON TRANSFER FACTOR
There is so much we can do and need to do. I honestly feel that Transfer Factor is needed by everyone everywhere. Because people don't know about it therefore they are not taking TF products to enhance their immune system.
In all honesty in my 43 years of medical practice I have never come across any pharmaceutical or nutriceutical products like Transfer Factor products that will help us to get well and stay well. I have committed myself to take on this mission to share Transfer Factor with everyone I meet directly or indirectly through you. Come and join with me on this exciting mission to reduce the suffering of our fellow human beings.
I look forward to meeting each and everyone of you and share with you my vision.

I have seen first hand, the deadly consequences of the emergence of flesh-eating super-germs, now resistant to most of the antibiotics which were once successfully used against them. The abuse, unnecessary use and overuse of antibiotics over the years, have contributed to this life threatening development. Many infections and illnesses, including cancer, develop because of immune system failure, resulting from many day to day factors, several of which are preventable. One thing we can all do however, is to boost our immune system to help protect, defend and help our body to heal itself. I have listened to the testimonials of several healthy as well as health challenged individuals, who have used the Transfer Factors™ and other 4Life Research™ products. Their stories and the dramatic improvement in the quality of their lives generate excitement. I believe that 4LifeTransfer Factor™ and Transfer Factor Plus™ are true immune system modulators. I have decided not only to use 4Life Research™ products, but also to tell others about them.

"A while ago I came down with a summer cold. I got a runny nose and a sore throat, and then my next order of transfer factor arrived. I decided I would take nothing else. In a 24-hour time period I felt great! I had no symptoms. It was like I'd never had a cold. It was very exciting for me to experience that firsthand. Quite frankly, I've never had an immune boosting experience like I had with transfer factor. It's just remarkable. I think every chiropractor should know about this product and I think people should be telling their friends about this. If for no other reason you should have it in your medicine chest for when you need a immune system boost or modulation."
Dr. Gary Haagen
Disclaimer:We cannot confirm this testimony as being truthful or accurate. At this time we do not have enough scientific evidence, according to FDA guidelines, to imply that these results are typical. We suggest that you do not consider these results typical. If you suffer from an illness it is our suggestion that you consult a medical doctor and please do not replace medication for the use of our product without being under the care of a medical professional.
"When infants are nursed they are 17 times less likely to become seriously ill. Today we understand the science behind this dramatic display of wellness.

"A while ago I came down with a summer cold. I got a runny nose and a sore throat, and then my next order of transfer factor arrived. I decided I would take nothing else. In a 24-hour time period I felt great! I had no symptoms. It was like I'd never had a cold. It was very exciting for me to experience that firsthand. Quite frankly, I've never had an immune boosting experience like I had with transfer factor. It's just remarkable. I think every chiropractor should know about this product and I think people should be telling their friends about this. If for no other reason you should have it in your medicine chest for when you need a immune system boost or modulation."

7. TRANSFER FACTOR (Bahasa)
Transfer factor ialah molekul semula jadi mikroskopik yang berada dalam jasad semua haiwan. Ia adalah pengutus, menghantar maklumat imuniti tentang kehadiran suatu ancaman imun—sama ada luaran atau dalaman—dan cara untuk bertindak dengan betul, dari satu sel imun ke sel imun yang lain.
Transfer factor dihasilkan oleh limfosit yang mempunyai fungsi imuniti berperantara sel. Ia membawa imuniti berperantara sel limfosit induk yang khusus antigen (hipersensitiviti jenis lambatan) untuk limfosit tidak peka, atau naif. Ia juga boleh meningkatkan aktiviti perangsangan imuniti yang tidak khusus antigen pada limfosit penerima.
Transfer factor memindahkan maklumat imuniti—pengecaman patogen dan gerak balas imun yang tepat—dengan faktor pencetus, penindas dan khusus antigen.
* Faktor pencetus membenarkan transfer factor membantu gerak balas imun suaian terhadap jangkitan virus, parasit, malignansi, penyakit bakteria dan mikobakteria, jangkitan kulat, gangguan autoimun dan penyakit neurologi. Faktor ini boleh memindahkan suatu gerak balas imun dalam masa kurang daripada 24 jam dan dengan nyata mengurangkan atau menghapuskan simptom sesuatu penyakit.
* Faktor penindas mengawal sistem imun daripada gerak balas lampau, seperti terhadap debunga dan jasad asing yang lain, termasuklah dirinya sendiri iaitu dalam kes gangguan autoimun.
* Faktor khusus antigen membawa teg kritikal yang digunakan oleh sistem imun untuk mengenal pasti mikrob dan sel.
Transfer factor juga boleh didapati dalam sistem imun yang paling primitif. Faktor pencetus dan penindas bagi transfer factor bersifat universal dan boleh memindahkan imuniti merentasi halangan spesies. Justeru itu, transfer factor daripada lembu boleh memberikan imuniti kepada manusia. Faktor yang khusus antigen boleh memindahkan imuniti di antara spesies apabila berlakunya pindah silang di antara patogen yang khusus antigen, seperti cacar dan penyakit cacar lembu, E.coli, dan lain-lain.
8. PENGENALAN TRANSFER FACTOR
Bagi manusia, TF diperolehi daripada sistem imun yang lebih berpengalaman milik si ibu dihantar kepada bayinya melalui kolostrum (susu pertama yang diterima oleh si anak sejurus sahaja selepas dilahirkan). Kolostrum dilengkapi dengan seangkatan komponen yang diberikan kepada anak yang baru lahir. Dengan berbuat demikian, sistem imun bayi yang baru lahir tersebut mempunyai kelebihan sistem yang lebih berpengalaman terhadap berjuta-juta penceroboh (bakteria , virus, miroorganisma, kuman dan lain-lain antigen) yang berpotensi mengganggu badan bayi. Di samping itu, pembimbing imun yang datang dari kolostrum ibu melatih sel imun bayi, oleh itu ia boleh memulakan pertahanan imunnya di masa hadapan dengan sendirinya.
Kolostrum bukan hanya setakat cecair berkhasiat. Melalui kolostrum, bayi mewarisi data imun si ibu. Kolostrum mengandungi antibodi dan melaluinya, alam semulajadi telah menyediakan cara yang menakjubkan yang dapat dimanfaatkan oleh sistem imun bayi, kepada sistem yang lebih lama yang telah pun melawan beribu-ribu jenis jangkitan melawan organisma berjangkit yang dibuat oleh ibu. Ingatan imun ini kemudiannya dikodkan pada molekul ingatan yang kecil dipanggil Transfer factor (TF).
TF, adalah struktur molekul kecil yang ditegaskan dalam bahagian kolostrum susu ibu yang paling berharga yang dipindahkan kepada bayi untuk mendapat perlindungan dan pengukuhan untuk melawan jangkitan penyakit. Fungsi TF adalah mengenal pasti, bergerak balas dan kemudian mengingat.
Melalui faktor yang kecil ini, kita sebenarnya boleh meminjam ingatan imun daripada sumber yang serasi iaitu lembu yang telah mempunyai pengalaman dengan beratus-ratus jenis organisma berjangkit, maka apabila kita menemui mana-mana organisma ini yang tidak dapat kita lakukan setiap hari, kita mempunyai kelebihan imun yang sukar dipercayai. Daya imun kita melangkau tahap pengenalpastian dan pengecaman yang mana pada ketika inilah kita biasanya jatuh sakit dan terus ke mod serangan atau tahap pertahanan sekunder kita.
Kemampuan untuk mengasingkan TF daripada kolostrum lembu menghasilkan produk yang unggul kerana Tf yang diekstrak daripada kolostrum lembu boleh memberi kita kelebihan yang sama yang diperoleh oleh anak yang baru lahir daripada susu pertama ibunya.
Kebolehan menerima data imun yang dipindahkan daripada lembu kepada manusia mempunyai potensi untuk merevolusikan cara kita melihat pencegahan penyakit dalam perubatan.
9. Q&A: 4LFE TRANSFER FACTOR (Bahasa)
1. Apakah itu Transfer Factor?
Ia adalah molekul halus pembawa maklumat imun (immune IQ) yang terkandung dalam kolostrum. Ia bertanggungjawab memindahkan maklumat imun di antara sel yang terdapat dalam sistem imun badan. Setiap mamalia yang menyusukan anak akan memindahkan kepandaian sistem imunnya kepada si anak melalui susu pertamanya yang dinamakan kolostrum dan Transfer Factorlah kuncinya. Ia adalah "Senjata Daya Imun" yang paling berharga.
2. Apakah itu kolostrum?
Kolostrum adalah susu awal yang didapati dari 1 hingga 3 hari selepas si ibu melahirkan. Selain dari mengandungi nutrien, ia juga mengandungi Transfer Factor.
3. Apakah yang dimaksudkan dengan "kepandaian sistem imun"?
Setiap manusia atau haiwan akan sentiasa diserang oleh berbagai-bagai jenis kuman, virus, kulat, hama, habuk, parasit dan perosak dari luar, yang mendatangkan penyakit. Sistem imunlah yang bertindak memerangi musuh-musuh ini. Apabila musuh menyerang, gambaran rupa musuh akan disimpan dalam ingatan molekul halus yang dinamakan Transfer Factor. Transfer Factor bertindak sebagai 'kamera penyimpan maklumat' bentuk rupa kuman, virus, kulat dsb.
4. Apakah yang mendorong para saintis mencari Transfer Factor dalam kolostrum?
Melalui pengamatan, mereka dapati bahawa anak lembu yang tidak diberi susu awal ibunya selepas dilahirkan akan mati tidak berapa lama selepas itu walaupun banyak mengambil makanan lain. Infeksi dari serangan kuman, virus dan kulat adalah penyebabnya. Pengkaji mendapati bahawa anak lembu yang baru dilahirkan tidak mempunyai sistem pertahanan yang terbentuk dan tidak mengenali bentuk rupa kuman, virus, kulat dsb. Dengan adanya Transfer Factor, sistem pertahanan anak lembu dapat mengenali musuhnya lantas dapat mempertahankan diri dari serangan.
5. Apakah sejarah di sebalik Transfer Factor?
Pada tahun 1949 Dr. H Sherwood Lawrence, ketika membuat kajian mengenai penyakit batuk kering (TB), mendapati bahawa kecerdikan sistem imun seseorang yang sudah pulih dari penyakit boleh dipindahkan kepada seseorang lain yang belum terkena penyakit dengan menggunakan molekul halus yang diekstrak dari sel darah putih. Beliau namakan molekul halus itu sebagai Transfer Factor.
6. Apakah fungsi Transfer Factor?
a) Meningkatkan aktiviti sel 'Natural Killer' (NK) ketahap 283 - 437%. Ini adalah 10 - 30 kali ganda lebih tinggi dari kemampuan lain-lain jenis herba atau makanan kesihatan yang pernah dikaji oleh sains. Sel NK adalah komponen sistem imun yang paling penting dalam menentang infeksi dari penyakit. Ia meronda, mencari dan memusnahkan infeksi dan sel berpenyakit. Sel NK juga bertanggungjawab melawan dan memusnahkan sel kanser dan sel berinfeksi akibat serangan virus, kuman, kulat dan sebagainya.
b) Meningkatkan kebijaksanaan (IQ) sistem imun - Transfer Factor memiliki gambaran rupa beribu-ribu jenis kuman perosak. Ia akan memindahkan gambaran ini kepada sel sistem imun supaya ia dapat mengenali musuhnya dengan cepat. Transfer Factor memberi informasi yang tepat supaya sel imun dapat bertindak dengan segera untuk menghapuskan kuman, virus dan kulat sebelum ia bertapak dan membiak di dalam tubuh badan.
c) Menenangkan sistem imun yang terlalu aktif - Sistem imun yang terlalu aktif akan menyerang sel baik dan juga tisu tubuh badan. Keadaan ini menyebabkan penyakit 'autoimun'. Transfer Factor akan menenangkan sel imun apabila musuh-musuh telah berjaya diatasi dan mengarahkannya ke tempat lain yang diperlukan. Fungsi penenang ini amat penting untuk membantu pesakit autoimun seperti lupus, artritis, alergi, asma, sklerosis multipel, psoriasis dan banyak lagi.
7. Jika Transfer Factor terdapat dalam kolostrum, mengapa tidak ambil sahaja kolostrum?
Kolostrum hanya mengandungi sedikit Transfer Factor. Anda perlu mengambil 45,000mg kolostrum untuk mendapatkan 600mg Transfer Factor. Ini bermakna sebiji pil Transfer Factor adalah sama kekuatannya dengan 75 biji pil kolostrum. Kolostrum juga mengandungi protein sistem imun (antibodi), hanya sesuai untuk anak lembu, yang boleh menyebabkan alergi pada manusia. Transfer Factor tidak menyebabkan alergi kerana ia tidak mengandungi protein tersebut dan sesuai untuk semua jenis spesies.
8. Bolehkah orang yang mempunyai alergi kepada susu atau "lactose intolerant" mengambil Transfer Factor?
Seperti yang diterangkan di atas, Transfer Factor tidak menyebabkan sebarang alergi kerana ia tidak mengandungi susu, lemak susu atau gula susu (lactose). Semua itu telah diasingkan oleh teknologi ekstraksi canggih milik 4Life Research, yang terdapat dalam Transfer Factor adalah pati molekul "IQ imun".
9. Saya sedang mengamalkan makanan kesihatan lain seperti vitamin, herba, enzim dll. Apakah perlu saya mengambil Transfer Factor?
Transfer Factor bertindak terus ke atas sistem yang paling penting dalam tubuh badan manusia iaitu sistem imun atau daya menentang penyakit. Tanpa daya imun, manusia tidak dapat hidup. Jika sistem imun tidak diberi makanan tepat yang diperlukan, ia akan mencuri bahan yang diperlukan dari sistem yang lain kerana ia adalah fungsi yang terpenting dalam badan. Makanan tambahan lain hanya membekalkan zat kepada sel dan organ tetapi tidak dapat memberi informasi atau kebijaksanaan kepada sistem imun untuk mengenali musuhnya. Sama juga seperti orang kuat, jika terlalu bodoh atau gila, nescaya akan dapat dikalahkan juga oleh musuhnya.
10. Adakah terdapat fakta sains yang membuktikan Transfer Factor dapat meningkatkan daya imun jauh lebih tinggi dari makanan kesihatan lain?
Ya! Walaupun makanan kesihatan lain mempunyai fungsi tertentu dalam kesihatan manusia, Transfer Factor memainkan peranan paling penting dalam daya melawan penyakit. Kajian sains yang dijalankan selama 7 tahun (1992 - 1999) oleh Jeunesse Inc - Institute of Longevity Medicine, California ke atas 198 produk atau rumusan bahan semulajadi, hanya 46 sahaja yang dapat meransang aktiviti sel NK ke tahap 10 - 49%. Transfer Factor dan Transfer Factor Plus dapat meransang aktiviti sel NK ke tahap 283 dan 437% (sila lihat laporan penyelidikan).
11. Adakah kajian mengenai Transfer Factor telah dibuktikan dan disahkan oleh sains?
Sejak penyelidikan Dr. Sherwood Lawrence pada tahun 1949, terdapat lebih dari 3,000 kajian saintifik dan klinikal yang melibatkan beratus-ratus pakar bedah, doktor dan saintis ternama dari lebih dari 70 buah negara. Penyelidikan ke atas Transfer Factor telah menelan belanja lebih dari US$40 juta.
12. Jika Transfer Factor terlalu bagus dan berkesan, mengapa para doktor tidak menggunakannya di klinik?
Terdapat ramai doktor di Amerika dan Eropah yang sudah mula mengguna dan mengesyorkan Transfer Factor kepada pesakit mereka. Transfer Factor juga disenaraikan dalam buku PDR (Physicians' Desk Reference) iaitu buku yang menjadi panduan dan rujukan para doktor ketika mengesyorkan ubat. Terdapat beribu-ribu testimoni dari pesakit yang menggunakan Transfer Factor serta pengesyoran dari para doktor.
13. Adakah Transfer Factor selamat digunakan?
Ia adalah 100% selamat, asli dan tanpa sedikit pun toksid. Pengkaji telah memberikan dos sehingga 2000 kali ganda kepada sukarelawan untuk ujian klinikal dan mendapati tiada langsung kesan sampingan.
14. Adakah semua orang boleh mengambil Transfer Factor?
Ya, dari bayi yang baru dilahirkan sehingga orang tua boleh mengambil Transfer Factor kerana ia adalah bahan asli yang tidak mengandungi sebarang toksid. Ia diekstrak dari kolostrum dan kolostrum sememangnya makanan/minuman bayi.
15. Adakah terdapat maklumat mengenai keselamatan menggunakan Transfer Factor?
Pada tahun 1980, FDA USA meluluskan kolostrum dan diikuti dengan kelulusan mengambil Transfer Factor dari kolostrum untuk kegunaan manusia dalam tahun 1985.
16. Siapakah yang boleh mendapat manfaat dari pengambilan Transfer Factor?
Semua orang yang ingin mencegah serta merawat apa sahaja penyakit dan juga orang yang mahukan tenaga yang lebih.
17. Saya cukup sihat. Apakah perlu saya mengambil Transfer Factor?
Transfer Factor mendidik sistem imun kita untuk mengenal dan sentiasa bersedia menghadapi serangan musuh di dalam tubuh badan kita. Serangan musuh ini berlaku pada setiap hari akibat dari cara kehidupan di zaman ini seperti pencemaran kepada makanan, air dan udara. Mencegah adalah lebih baik dari merawat. Kadangkala penyakit boleh merosakkan organ kita ke tahap tidak dapat dipulihkan kembali. Lagipun walau kita sihat, sistem imun terpaksa berkerja "overtime" setiap hari bagi memastikan kita tetap hidup. Jika sistem imun tidak mendapat Transfer Factor secukupnya, ia boleh menyebabkan kita akan selalu merasa letih dan lesu.
18. Saya sedang mengambil ubat doktor. Bolehkah juga saya mengambil Transfer Factor?
Ya, boleh! Transfer Factor adalah asas "sistem pertahanan asli" untuk manusia dan ia tidak bercanggah dengan apa sahaja ubat-ubatan doktor, malahan Transfer Factor akan mempercepatkan proses penyembuhan seseorang itu.
19. Bolehkah wanita hamil mengambil Transfer Factor?
Ya boleh. Tidak terdapat sebarang laporan kesan sampingan dari wanita hamil yang mengambil Transfer Factor. Namun begitu adalah lebih baik meminta nasihat doktor masing-masing terlebih dahulu. Walau bagaimanapun, Transfer Factor Plus tidak disyorkan untuk wanita hamil.
20. Bagi seseorang yang tidak boleh menelan kapsul, bagaimanakah cara untuk mengambil Transfer Factor?
Kapsulnya boleh dibuka dan campurkan isi kandungannya kepada air, bubur atau sebarang makanan lembut.
21. Adakah Transfer Factor sama seperti vitamin, galian, hormon dan enzim?
Tidak. Transfer Factor adalah pemakanan tambahan lain dari yang lain dan tergolong dalam kelas tersendiri. Transfer Factor adalah 'otak' atau IQ kepada sistem imun.
22. Adakah Transfer Factor terlalu mahal harganya?
Jika dibandingkan dengan daya kekuatan dan keberkesanan Transfer Factor dalam meransang sistem imun, ia adalah jauh lebih murah dari produk kesihatan lain. Contohnya jus noni dan aloe vera merangsang sistem imun setinggi 15% sahaja tetapi Transfer Factor Plus dapat merangsang sistem imun setinggi 437%, iaitu 29 kali ganda lebih tinggi. Jika sebotol jus noni atau aloe vera berharga RM80, anda perlu berbelanja RM2,320 untuk mendapat kekuatan yang sama seperti sebotol Transfer Factor Plus yang berharga cuma sekitar RM220 sahaja.
23. Adakah selamat untuk mengambil Transfer Factor berlebihan dalam sehari?
Ya, selamat. Tidak terdapat sebarang laporan kesan toksid dari pengambilan Transfer Factor secara berlebihan.
24. Bolehkah seseorang itu mengambil lebih banyak Transfer Factor Plus dari apa yang disyorkan?
Kadangkala seseorang itu perlukan dos yang lebih tinggi dalam jangka masa pendek bagi mendapat sokongan yang lebih kuat kepada sistem imun dalam menghadapi penyakit tertentu. Cara terbaik untuk memulakan pengambilan Transfer Factor Plus adalah dengan mengikut dos yang tercatat di label.
25. Bolehkah Transfer Factor diambil bersama vitamin, mineral, enzim, ginseng, gamat atau herba lain?
Ya, boleh! Transfer Factor tidak bercanggah dengan nutrien lain.
26. Apakah penyakit yang memerlukan Transfer Factor?
Semua penyakit dari yang ringan seperti selsema kepada yang berat seperti barah, sakit jantung, buah pinggang, kencing manis, bisa lutut, sawan, alergi dan sebagainya. Apabila seseorang itu berpenyakit, itu menunjukkan bahawa sistem imunnya sudah kalah. Transfer Factor akan mengejutkan dan merangsang sistem imun seseorang itu untuk melawan penyakit tersebut.
27. Mengapa lembu dipilih sebagai sumber Transfer Factor?
Lembu mempunyai sumber susu awal yang sangat banyak. Transfer Factor tidak terhad untuk jenis spesies yang mengeluarkannya, ini bermakna ia sesuai dan boleh digunakan oleh manusia walaupun unsurnya dari spesies lain. Lembu juga lebih terdedah kepada cabaran alam sekitar seperti kotoran, kuman ,virus, hama, kulat dan sebagainya menjadikan sistem imunnya jauh lebih kuat dari manusia. Ini bermakna Transfer Factor dari unsur kolostrum lembu mempunyai banyak "pengalaman" dan "kebijaksanaan" dalam mendidik dan merangsang sistem imun.
28. Apakah kemungkinan Transfer Factor atau kolostrum dicemari oleh kuman lembu gila (mad cow disease)?
a. Tidak mungkin. Pakar tentang penyakit lembu gila telah mengesahkan bahawa kuman BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) tidak memasuki saluran mammari dan kolostrum. Pemeriksaan ke atas semua lembu yang diserang penyakit lembu gila mendapati bahawa tiada satu pun yang mempunyai susu yang dijangkiti. Para saintis juga mendapati bahawa kesan jangkitan kuman pada tahap terakhir berada di otak dan tulang belakang lembu. Tidak pernah terdapat susu yang dijangkiti.
b. World Health Organisation (WHO) memberi kenyataan: "Ujian ke atas susu dari lembu yang dijangkiti kuman BSE tidak menunjukkan sebarang jangkitan. Susu dan produk yang diperbuat dari susu telah disahkan selamat dan bebas dari jangkitan sebarang kuman walaupun di negara yang mempunyai banyak insiden penyakit lembu gila (Great Britain).
29. Mengapa harus saya mengambil Transfer Factor jika saya sudahpun menerima maklumat sistem imun ketika saya bayi?
Transfer Factor yang kita terima dari ibu kita sewaktu baru dilahirkan dahulu membantu sistem imun kita untuk cabaran pada masa itu. Sekarang kita menghadapi banyak cabaran baru sedangkan sistem imun kita semakin lemah akibat umur yang semakin meningkat. Menguatkan sistem imun adalah tersangat penting untuk kesihatan yang berpanjangan
30. Berapa kerap saya harus mengambil Transfer Factor?
Setiap hari tubuh badan kita menghasilkan sel imun baru yang memerlukan maklumat. Transfer Factor harus diambil setiap hari bagi memastikan sistem imun kita sentiasa mendapat sokongan dan didikan untuk menghadapi cabaran yang sentiasa memenuhi alam sekitar kita. Apatah lagi di zaman sekarang di mana penyakit berupa serangan virus seperti SARS, penyakit kuku dan mulut, selsema burung, HIV-AIDS semakin berleluasa. Para saintis juga telah mendapati bahawa kebanyakan penyakit adalah berpunca daripada seraangan virus dan kuman. Ini termasuk penyakit kencing manis, jantung, TB, sawan, semput dan sebagainya.
31. Adakah terdapat sebarang peluang bagi syarikat lain meniru dan menjual Transfer Factor?
Syarikat lain akan sentiasa mencari jalan untuk meniru dan menjual Transfer Factor kerana mereka tahu bahawa Transfer Factor mempunyai pasaran yang sangat luas. Tetapi perlindungan hakcipta (paten) telah diberikan hanya kepada syarikat 4Life Research sahaja dan ianya berkuatkuasa di seluruh dunia. Ini disebabkan proses mengasingkan Transfer Factor dari kolostrum, yang sangat rumit, telah dihasilkan oleh para saintis di 4Life Research setelah beberapa tahun menjalankan penyelidikan dan kajian. Disamping itu hanya Transfer Factor keluaran 4Life Research yang disenaraikan dalam buku panduan dan rujukan doktor (PDR). Ini bermakna hanya 4Life Research sahaja yang memiliki Transfer Factor yang diakui kualiti dan keberkesanannya.
32. Adakah saya perlu mempunyai latar belakang dalam bidang sains, farmasiutikal atau pemakanan untuk berkongsi tentang Transfer Factor dengan orang ramai?
Tidak. Konsep Transfer Factor mudah diterangkan kerana ia adalah bahan asas dalam sistem pertahanan manusia. Di mana mana, manusia sentiasa mencari jawapan dalam penjagaan kesihatan dan meningkatkan daya melawan penyakit (peningkatan sistem imun). Ibu, bapa, kaum remaja, kanak-kanak dan orang yang sudah lanjut usia semuanya sedang menghadapi cabaran yang semakin hari semakin meningkat dalam usaha mengekalkan kesihatan tubuh badan. Dengan berkongsi maklumat yang terdapat dalam risalah ini, kebanyakan dari soalan akan terjawab. Selain itu anda secara tidak langsung telah melakukan amal kebajikan dengan menyebarkan ilmu yang sangat penting dalam kehidupan manusia, sesuai dengan hadis nabi yang bermaksud "sebaik-baik manusia adalah mereka yang paling banyak memberi manfaat kepada manusia lain".

10. INTRODUCTION OF 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR
Inside your body there is an amazing protection mechanism called the immune system. It is designed to defend you against outside invaders that can compromise your health. Knowing this, it's easy to see why maintaininga healty immune system means living a healthier life. Understanding the function of the immune system helps us appreciate the value in maintaining its healthy function.
Transfer factors are tiny molecules found in colostrum which provide "immune knowledge" from a mother's immune system to her baby used in recognizing and fighting outside threats. By transferring information from cell to cell, transfer factors serve as "teachers" to the new cells, ensuring a strong immune system capable of surviving, even thriving, in its new environment. * Transfer factors are not species-specific and can therefore be extracted from any mammal and then be given to another mammal with the same efficacy. There are over 3,000 published papers and 50 years of research on various forms and sources of transfer factors.
Key Points
• Transfer Factor E-XF: Transfer factors are molecules found within the bodies of all mammals and birds. Transfer factors provide immune intelligence and promote the immune system’s ability to recognize, respond to, and remember invaders seeking to threaten health. Transfer Factor E-XF is 4Life's advanced transfer factor blend. Through a patented process exclusive to 4Life, transfer factors from both cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks are combined to produce synergistic immune-enhancing support.
• NanoFactor extract: Nanofractions are low-weight molecules found in the immune systems of certain mammals and birds. They possess natural intuition and function as part of the complex “command and control” network of the immune system. NanoFactor is 4Life’s patent-pending extract of nanofractions from cow colostrum. NanoFactor helps immune cells know when to act, how to act, and when to rest.
While transfer factors and nanofractions each provide effective immune support on their own, intelligence and intuition are both needed for optimal immune response. 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor Formula brings together the intelligence of 4Life Transfer Factor and the intuition of NanoFactor, to regulate, boost, and balance the immune system… according to what your body needs.
• Cordyvant blend: Cordyvant contains ingredients that support the innate immune system, your first and instinctive response when your body is threatened. This blend contains known immune system nutrients, including: maitake and shiitake mushrooms, cordyceps, inositol hexaphosphate, beta glucans, soya bean extract, and olive leaf extract.
• Scientifically Studied: 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula was developed by 4Life researchers and scientists in an effort to maximize immune system support. Results of an independent study conducted at the Russian Academy of Medical Science conclusively showed that 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula propelled Natural Killer (NK) cell activity to a remarkable 437 percent above normal immune system response.1
Did you know?
Transfer factor and nanofraction molecules can be shared safely and effectively. Whether they are transferred from cow to human or from chicken to human, these molecules are not species specific.
Technical Points
• Natural Killer (NK) cells are important immune cells that seek and destroy harmful cells through direct contact. When invaders enter your body, these NK cells are on the front lines of your immune defense.
• The extraction processes for transfer factors from egg sources is protected by US patent 6,468,534, and the combining process for transfer factors from cow colostrum and egg yolks is protected by US patent 6,866,868.
• 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula is also included in 4Life’s RiteStart® Men and Women.
Education and Instinct - An Explanation of T-Factors
By, Dr. William J. Hennen, Ph.D.
The abilities we have to protect ourselves are both instinctive and learned. Our instinctive responses are untrained and are our first defensive responses to an outside threat. The strength of our instinctive response oftentimes determines its effectiveness in getting us out of danger. The better our hearing, vision, and agility, the better we are able to recognize and dodge threats that may suddenly appear in our environment. Just like our instinctive responses to physical threats, our innate immune responses are part of our instinctive response to microbial threats.
The immune system has various response capabilities. Certain of these responses are instinctive and are part of what is called the innate response. These instinctive responses exist naturally without prior training. The extent of the response, however, varies according to the conditioning of the system. A better-conditioned system produces a stronger response to a given stimulus. If this innate, instinctive, and first-line immune defense is adequate no additional response is necessary.
Within the immune system certain fungal factors and other glyconutrients condition the system and increase its innate responsiveness. Cordyvant is a balanced, proprietary blend of glyconutrients designed to enhance the innate immune response and strengthen of our first-line defensive response.
If our innate ability to physically defend ourselves is inadequate, then we must learn additional skills such as boxing, Judo or Karate. Similarly, our innate immune ability may be inadequate against the microbial mob. In these cases our immune system has the ability to learn new skills. A strong immune system has the ability to invent new techniques to deal with each new challenge. This is called the adaptive or learned response of the immune system.
If one looks at the education of immune cells, it is as if they go through a grammar school, prep school, college and graduate level training. The thymus is grammar school and pre-school for the T-cells. T-cells include T-helper cells, T-suppressor cells and Cytotoxic T-cells. T-helper cells assist the rest of the immune system cells in performing their important functions. T-suppressor cells help control the immune response and keep the immune system from overreacting. Cytotoxic T-cells are a form of white blood cells sometimes called Cytotoxic T-Lymphocytes (CTL). CTLs are like a police force that generally deals with threats to the community.
The primary and secondary immune training functions of the thymus gland are weak in infants and increase in strength up until the time of puberty. After puberty the thymus gland begins to shrink and continues to diminish in size and effectiveness throughout the rest of our lives. The deterioration of the thymus within the immune system is like the weakening of the public school system. Without a strong primary and secondary school system, many children have neither the math nor the language skills to adequately understand the instructions given to them. Many things can reduce the immune system’s training and learning capability. These include immaturity, aging and stress from a variety of sources such as poor nutrition, emotional strain, infectious assault or injury.
After leaving the thymus school the T-cells develop additional skills through on-the-job training as they work against various infectious agents. If the job is too complex, too unfamiliar, or too critical, the T-cells may not be able to develop skills fast enough by themselves. When this happens, additional outside training and instructions are needed. This information comes from outside experts who donate their wisdom and experience to the T-cells. Transfer factors provides university level training to the T-cells. Transfer factors teaches courses in immune system induction for the T-helper cells. Transfer factors also instructs T-suppressor cells in control and containment of the immune system energies so that good cells are not damaged. Cytotoxic T-cells are provided sets of microbial "Wanted" posters and weapons training so as to better recognize and neutralize threats to the domestic tranquility.
Each function of the immune system is important in our overall health. A full supplement ‘training program’ strengthens all aspects of the immune system and provides the best protection for the cellular citizens of our body.
It is increasingly clear that as the world becomes a smaller place with viruses and other pathogens traveling with great ease, we face now a unique challenge. Simply put, we are now, and will be, more exposed to challenges to our health. However, nature has already provided the immune system as our defense to microbes found in our environment. The degree to which we are able to educate our immune systems to recognize invaders will help determine our ability to cope with health challenges. I urge all people to pay attention to those things that affect their immune systems."
Spontaneous Regression: Cancer and the Immune System We have all heard stories of apparently miraculous recoveries from terminal cancer, but are any of these accounts true? Absolutely. Medical journals have published thousands of case histories about seemingly incurable patients who have seen their cancers disappear in the absence of medical treatment. These examples of spontaneous regression demonstrate the power of the human immune system. It can cure cancer.
A healing crisis is also known as the Herxheimer Reaction which occurs when the body is detoxifying too rapidly and toxins are being released faster than the body can eliminate them. As you move toward better health with natural healing programs and better nutrition, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process the body will begin to discard toxic residues which have built up in your body over the years. The healing process usually does not occur without repercussions. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house, (detoxify) and your vital energy begins to repair and rebuildinternal organs, you may experience headache, uneasiness, flu like symptoms and fatigue.
H. Reg McDaniel, MD - "The human body has an amazing cleansing system for eliminating toxins that accumulate in the body. This system can also become inefficient and allow toxins to build up and be stored, especially in body fat, rather than be eliminated. Once this natural cleansing system begins to work more efficiently, reactions can occur. These reactions result from the stored toxins begin released faster than the liver, kidneys, skin and lungs can remove them from the body. These reactions can include loss of appetite, nausea, headaches and swelling in various lymph glands throughout the body."
Dr. Mercola - "Every act of every cell in the body produces waste. This waste is poisonous, it is incompatible with the life of the cell..." "The cells throw their waste into the lymph that carries it back to the blood. The blood takes the waste to the excretory organs mentioned above for elimination." "Normal elimination keeps the blood and lymph clean.
