What are the products, and what do they do for you?

 

  • Colostrum is the first substance that the mammary glands of all mammals including humans produce after giving birth, before producing milk. It contains extremely powerful bio-active components called “Transfer Factors” that kick-start and regulate the immune system of newborns.
  • Transfer Factors are the extremely powerful bio-active components (proteins) found in Colostrum and egg yolk
  • These proteins consist of amino acids, and they are called Transfer Factors because they transfer immunity from one system to another
  •  4Life Research has patented a proprietary process to extract these Transfer Factors, and concentrate them in a powder that can be ingested via capsules or solutions
  • Transfer Factors are not vitamins, minerals or herbal substances that add nutrients to the body. Transfer Factors are molecules found within the immune system of all mammals and birds, dubbed "the memory molecule", that actually transfer immune memory and knowledge from one immune system to another.
  • Transfer Factors are some of the most unique molecules in your body. They carry important messages to immune cells all over the body, helping them fight harder and more effectively to keep you well. Transfer Factors provide intelligence to the immune system in three very important ways
    1. They help the immune system recognise threats quicker. These threats can be external from viruses, infections, bacteria, funghi, toxins, parasites, etc, or they can be internal cell changes like malignant tumors. Although the most notable function of these smart molecules is to speed up the recognition of a threat, making the duration of an illness shorter, they also support the immune system's ability to remember past invasions, allowing your body to more quickly respond to similar health threats
    2. They help the immune system fight the threats more effectively
    3. They help regulate the immune system; i.e kick it into action when it is sluggish, or suppress it when it's overactive, for example with an autoimmune disorder (when the immune system mistakenly attacks and damages healthy cells in the body)
  •  They have proven in many instances that they can re-set anomalities in the immune system (regulate it; activate it or calm it down) … and thus have a noticeable positive effect on auto-immune diseases (when the immune system mistakenly attacks and damages healthy cells in the body) and many conditions that are related to the immune system, like allergies & eczema:
  •  Food supplements are intended to correct nutritional deficiencies, maintain an adequate intake of certain nutrients, or to support specific physiological functions. They are not medicinal products and as such cannot exert a pharmacological, immunological or metabolic action. Therefore their use is not intended to treat or prevent diseases in humans or to modify physiological functions (European Food Safety Authority)
  • In this video the Chief Scientific officer of 4Life Research explains how 4Life Transfer Factor works in the body, and the research behind the fact it activates the immune system within 2 hours. https://4l.media/TRZAR

What evidence is there, that the products work?

 Here are first some medical publications specifically about the 4Life Transfer Factor products, which demonstrate that they strengthen the immune system

-        Prescribing info (This is from the reference source that GP’s in the USA use to prescribe medication)  

-        This research article (by Vetvicka, V. et al., International Clinical Pathology Journal, 2020) demonstrates that Transfer Factor (4Life’s Transfer Factor Plus Trifactor formula) affects both cellular and humoral branch of immune reactions  in mice.

-        This research article (by Vetvicka, V. et al., Austin Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2020,)  demonstrates that these Transfer Factors (4Life’s Transfer Factor Plus Trifactor formula) have significant potential to modulate specific immune responses

-        This research article (by Vetvicka, V. et al., Journal of Nutrition and Health Sciences, 2020) shows  significant improvements of all immune eactions (in phagocytosis, TNF-α and IL-2 secretion, antibody formation and NK cells activity), after 7 days of supplementation

Title: Transfer factor

Summary: Transfer factors are used for infectious conditions in people with weak immune systems. These infectious conditions include bacteria or viruses in the blood stream (septicemia), sinus infections, bronchitis, influenza, swine flu, the common cold, shingles, chickenpox, hepatitis B, fungal infections … yeast infections … parasitic infections such as leishmaniasis and cryptosporidiosis, and leprosy….

Transfer factors are also used for diabetes, autism, infertility, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Behcet's syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, balding, and Alzheimer's disease

Pubmed studies:

And then, many studies that have been published, see PubMed, the pre-eminent source of biomedical scientific literature. All medical professionals know and use it.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23746171/

Title: Transfer Factor: an Overlooked Potential for the Prevention and Treatment of Infectious Diseases (by Viza, D. et al., Folia biologica, 2013

Conclusion: TF can be used as an adjuvant to primary treatment for viral, parasitic, fungal and some bacterial infection, for immunodeficiensies, neoplasias and autoimmune dideases. Viruses of the herpes family seem to respond noticeably and remarkeable to TF (TF can prevent infection or relapse) and data suggests possible use of TF for tuberculosis and AIDS. In addition, TF has a potential to answer the challenge from unknown pathogenic agents even before their identification, suggesting both a therapeutic and preventative role of TF.

Title: Transfer Factor (by Kirkpatrick, C. et al, the Journal of allergy and clinical immunology, 1988)

Conclusion: Clinical studies have demonstrated that Transfer Factor is an efficacious method for immunotherapy of certain viral and fungal infections.

Title: Transfer Factors (TF) as immunotherapy and supplement of chemotherapy in experimental pulmonary tuberculosis (by Fabre, R et al., Clinical and experimental immunology, 2004

Conclusion:

Problems of logistics, compliance and drug resistance point to an urgent need for immunotherapeutic strategies capable of shortening the current six month antibiotic regimens used to treat tuberculosis. One potential immunotherapeutic agent is transfer factors. This study shows beneficial effects of TF:  the treatment with (murine or human) TF in animals with pulmonary tuberculosis restored the expression of Th-1 cytokines, TNFalpha and iNOS provoking inhibition of bacterial proliferation and significant increase of DTH and survival. This beneficial effect was dose dependent. Interestingly, TF in combination with conventional chemotherapy had a synergistic effect producing significant faster elimination of lung bacteria loads than chemotherapy alone.

Title: Transfer Factor and allergy (by Vera, J. et al., Revista alergia Mexico, 2010)

Conclusion: A PubMed search on the current knowledge on Transfer Factors (TF) indicates that TF may restore the Th1/Th2 balance and improve immune regulatory mechanisms of patients receiving it.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8993751/

Title: Transfer factor in the age of molecular biology: a review (by Dwyer, D. et al., Biotherapy, 1996)

Conclusion: Transfer Factors made from animals or humans are capable of transferring antigen specificity across a species barrier. Current data suggests that TF molecules would allow a naive recipient, on a first encounter with antigen, to make a secondary rather than a primary immunological response; TF changes T cell receptor’s avidity and affinity for antigen in a way that otherwise would only occur after an encounter with antigen.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20561650/

Title: Transfer factors in medical therapy (by Sanchez-Gonzalez, D. et al., Medicina Clinica, 2011)

Conclusion:

TFs have been studied for more than 60 years, are of amino acid composition and structure, have properties in the immune response and effects on human health.

TF is easy to prepare and well tolerated. It does not contain HL-A antigens against potential receptors and it can be used as adjuvant therapy in several diseases.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1247971/

Title: Transfer factor therapy in patients with cancer (by Vetto, R. et al., Cancer, 1976)

Conclusion: The results suggest that Ttransfer Factor can stimulate specific cell-mediated immunity in cancer patients and produce a clinical effect on tumor under certain circumstances.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3555898/

Title: Transfer Factor as a therapy for multiple sclerosis: a follow-up study (by Frith, J. et al., Clinical and experimental neurology, 1986)

Conclusion: The follow-up study of the 1980 TF trial patients and the open study of 470 MS patients confirm the original observation that TF has some effect on slowing the course of MS.

  1. Pubmed article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8363241/

Title: Structural nature and functions of transfer factors by Kirkpatrick, C, et al., Annals of the New York Academy of Science, 1993)

Conclusion: Transfer Factors appear to offer a novel means of molecular immunotherapy for certain patients with defective cell-mediated immunity.
