- Will 4Life be running a trial for people with HIV/AIDS in Kenya?
We are currently running three studies including the humanitarian work we are doing at Nkosi's Haven. The Kenyan study is waiting funding. A general trend is that those on HAART therapy respond with relatively low doses of TF+. We have had one individual whose drug regime caused a liver enzyme surge that was best contained by using plain TF as a nutritional support. In the cases of African Slim Disease (wasting), 6 TF+ per day resulted in significant weight gain with subsequent recovery of strength and activity. Two of the six participants in one section of our US AIDS study reported significant improvement in lean body mass within the first 30 days of TF+ supplementation, 6 per day.
- Are there studies to back up the power of transfer factors?
There have been over 3000 medical studies completed and 40 million dollars spent in researching the benefits of transfer factors. 4Life Transfer Factor® and 4Life Transfer Factor Plus® were tested for their ability to increase Natural Killer Cell (NK) activity by the Institute of Longevity Medicine in California. Natural Killer Cells seek and destroy harmful cells through direct contact. Natural Killer Cells are especially important in strengthening and supporting the immune system. Test results showed that 4Life 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 4Life Transfer Factor Plus® increased the NK cell activity over 430% above normal immune response without supplementation, or about five times higher than any of the other previously tested products. With the ability of transfer factors to boost the immune system this will help stop the overuse of antibiotics. According to David Markowitz, M.D. who has been running a clinical trial in his pediatric practice, "In an aged match review of transfer factor users we have seen 74% less reported illness and 84% less use of antibiotics."
- Are there research studies available on transfer factors?
4Life has made available three booklets containing condense information from the volumes of research available on 4Life Transfer Factors® and the components that were brought together in 4Life® Transfer Factor Plus®. The first booklet is Transfer Factor by William Hennen, Ph.D. The second is Enhanced Transfer Factor by William Hennen, Ph.D. A third booklet by Rita Elkins, MH, is also entitled Transfer Factor, and is written in layman's terms so the general population can gain additional knowledge. Each of these booklets contains hundreds of references.
