Transfer Factor Plus - What Does It Mean?

From 4Life Research:

The answer to this plus-power support stems from the relationship between Tri-Factor Formula and the added power of 4Life’s Cordyvant™ Proprietary Blend. In addition to immune-system support from Maitake and Shiitake mushrooms, zinc, and Olive leaf extract, the Cordyvant Proprietary Blend offers the unique nutritional strengths of a variety of other body-fortifying ingredients. The great immune-boosting power of 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor Formula plus the goodness of the Cordyvant Proprietary Blend gives you and your family the ultimate in immune-system support today.


Have you ever wondered what gives 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula its
added oomph? How does it drive an increase in immune-cell function from 283 percent to an unprecedented 437 percent*? The answer to this plus-factor stems from the relationship between Tri-Factor Formula and an added blend of body fortifying ingredients. All of the ingredients in 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula share the common bond of immune system wellness; but each one also adds its own unique strengths to the mix… giving you and your family one of the very best options for immune system support today.

Plus Factor
It’s already widely known that 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula includes the immune system intelligence (Transfer Factor E-XF™) and intuition (NanoFactor™) of Tri-Factor Formula. But, where does its plus power come from?

Cordyvant™ Proprietary Blend Inositol hexaphosphate acid (IP-6), Soya bean extract, Cordyceps sinensis, Beta-Glucans, Agaricus blazeii extract, Mannans, Olive leaf extract, Maitake mushroom, Shiitake mushroom, and Zinc… they’re all related in their ability
to support the immune system. Each ingredient helps support the healthy function of immune cells and strengthen your body’s natural defenses.




Cordyceps
It has been theorized that cordyceps enhances energy, endurance, and stamina because it supports increased blood flow and oxygen supplies throughout the body, which helps the heart, lungs, and other organs function more efficiently. In a number of competitive events, winning Chinese athletes have attributed their high performance in part to regular use of cordyceps. And, as if that weren’t enough, research is emerging on cordyceps for weight management support!


Olive leaf extract
This extract contains oleuropein, a plant chemical found in the olive trees that promote its ability to resist damage from insects and other elements. Oleuropein’s defensive power stems from elenolic acid, which has been shown to support healthy levels of good bacteria in the body and support the immune system.



Soya bean extract
Soya bean extract is rich in beta sitosterol, phytonutrients that have been shown to provide a variety of health benefits, including support for bone health, healthy cardiovascular system function, and healthy cholesterol levels. Beta sitosterol, or Soya bean protein, provides all the essential amino acids in the amounts needed for human health.

Maitake mushroom
Grifolan and D-fraction are powerful polysaccharides (molecules composed of many sugar molecules linked together) contained in Maitake mushroom that are know to support immune system health. Additional benefits of Maitake mushrooms include support for cardiovascular and digestive system health, as well as support for healthy
insulin function in the body.


Shiitake mushroom
Shiitake mushrooms have been used in Chinese medicine for more than 6,000 years. They have long been known for their immune boosting properties. They contain the active component eritadenine that has been shown to support healthy cholesterol levels, as well as L-ergothioneine for potent antioxidant protection.

Zinc
Zinc is an essential mineral found in almost very cell in the body. It is vital for many biological functions and plays a crucial role in more than 300 enzymes in the human body. Among its many health benefits, zinc supports the body’s ability to heal itself, helps maintain your sense of taste and smell, and supports skin health.

Transfer Factor Amazing Science

"Why we call 4Life Research the Immune System Company

1. Health Sciences Advisory Board
Along with its commitment to science through an in-house Research and Development
department, 4Life reached out to professionals throughout the health community to create the Health Sciences Advisory Board (HSAB). The HSAB plays an integral part in 4Life’s ongoing product research and development. It’s among the most sophisticated industry boards of its kind, comprised of leading physicians, biochemists, immunity experts, nutritionists, product formulators, and world-renowned experts in transfer factor science.

2. Targeted Technology
In 2002, 4Life obtained a new patent on sourcing transfer factor molecules from chicken egg yolks and introduced Targeted Transfer Factor®. 4Life’s Targeted Transfer Factor Products focus the immune system benefits of 4Life Transfer Factor and other system-specific nutrients to provide a more personal level of health support.

3. The Pokrovsky Award
For their contribution in the field of micronutrition and development of the “Hierarchy of Human Health” concept, 4Life Chief Scientific Officer Calvin McCausland and President of Eurasia Emma Oganova were honored with the Russian Federation’s Pokrovsky Award. Dr. Victor A. Tutelian, one of Russia’s most eminent scientists and member of the World Health Organization (WHO), traveled to the United States to personally present this distinguished award.

4. Physicians, Desk Reference
In 2003 distributors first saw 4Life Transfer Factor Products listed in the Physicians' Desk Reference: For Nonprescription Drugs, Dietary Supplements, and Herbs (PDR). In 2008, this professional listing continues to give 4Life Transfer Factor Products an additional boost in the scientific community and helps strengthen every distributor’s position as a leader in the distribution of Transfer Factor Products.



5. Scientific Studies
To determine the power of 4Life Transfer Factor Advanced Formula Products, researchers Calvin McCausland Ph.D. and Emma Oganova, M.D. designed a study to test
Natural Killer (NK) cell activity. Dr. Anatoli Vorobiev at the Russian Academy of Medical Science directed his team in the independent testing, using double- blind cytotoxicity testing. Results of this study conclusively demonstrated the ability of 4Life Transfer Factor to boost NK cell activity by 283 percent and of 4Life Transfer Factor Plus to propel NK cell activity to a remarkable 437 percent above normal immune response.


6. Methodological Letter
After exhaustive studies conducted by the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences
involving 4Life Transfer Factor, the Russian Federation released a Methodological Letter. This document not only authorizes, but also encourages healthcare professionals in Russia to use 4Life Transfer Factor products in their practices.

7. World’s First
In 2005, distributors rode the river of life, celebrating 4Life’s success in stabilizing transfer factor molecules in liquid form and launching the world’s first Transfer Factor liquid dietary supplement. 4Life Transfer Factor RioVida® was the first and only product to date to be simultaneously launched in every market where 4Life Products are registered.


8. Blokhina Award
In 2006, 4Life Chief Executive Officer David Lisonbee was inducted into the Russian
Academy of Medical and Technical Sciences. He was also the recipient of the 26th I.N. Blokhina Award, an international award that recognizes excellence in the biotechnology field. Past recipients include the director of Cambridge University’s Institute of Biology and the director general of the Avicenna Medical Center in Moscow.

9. A New Revolution
Just when everyone thought the science behind 4Life Transfer Factor Products was at
its peak, 4Life raised the bar once again with its discovery of the immune system power in nanofraction molecules and the development of Tri-Factor™ Formula. Through this revolutionary product innovation, people around the world now benefit from comprehensive boosting and balancing immune system support that includes
the intelligence of 4Life Transfer Factor and the intuition of NanoFactor™.

Transfer Factor History

"1. DAVID’S DISCOVERY BEGINS A REVOLUTION 1990s
4Life got its start when Chief Executive Officer
David Lisonbee unearthed an obscure patent reference for something called transfer factors. Plenty of companies tout their nutritional products for immune system health, but the real genius of transfer factors is in their ability to provide the immune system with something new (and very necessary): information to recognize, respond to, and remember invaders.

2. 4LIFE TRANSFER FACTOR WORLD INTRODUCTION 1998
When David discovered what transfer factors could do for the immune system, he knew they had to be brought to market. With over 20 years of experience in the network marketing industry, David knew it would be a perfect way to share the story of transfer factors. After discovering the patent to extract transfer factors from cow colostrum, he introduced 4Life’s first product to the world: 4Life Transfer Factor Classic.

3. 4LIFE = INNOVATION 2002
4Life is out in front, continually moving forward and researching the latest and very best in immune system technology. One big example? David hypothesized that transfer factors also exist in chicken egg yolks and encouraged our Research and Development department to test for it. He was right. In 2002, 4Life patented the extraction of transfer factors from chicken egg yolks (US Patent #6,468,534).


4. 4LIFE LAUNCHED ITS FIRST TARGETED TRANSFER FACTOR® PRODUCT, CARDIO™ 2002 As you can guess from the name, our Targeted Transfer Factor products focus the power of 4Life Transfer Factor to benefit specific body systems. Whether you’re looking to support your cardiovascular system, metabolic and endocrine systems, female or male reproductive health, or brain, 4Life has a product for you.

5. The magic of synergy 2004
When you have two very effective transfer factor sources, what do you do next? You
combine them, of course. In 2004, 4Life launched several products containing Transfer Factor E-XF™, a formulation that combines transfer factors sourced from cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks for a whole lot of synergy.

6. Exclusive patents 2005
4Life obtained another exclusive patent in 2005 that protects the unique manufacturing process we use to combine transfer factors from cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks (US Patent #6,866,868). Our patents protect your business, giving you scientifically proven products and products that just can’t be purchased anywhere else.


7. ONE-AND-ONLY TRANSFER FACTOR DRINK 2005
With 4Life Transfer Factor RioVida®, you get a one-two punch. First, it’s a unique blend of powerful antioxidant fruits, including açaí, pomegranates, blueberries, elderberries, and purple grapes. And second, it’s the one-and only transfer factor drink in the world!

8. 4Life goes nano 2007
4Life transfer factor science took a giant leap forward. For years, scientists have known that colostrum contained molecules even smaller than transfer factors. But they never knew if these tiny molecules played a role in the immune system. They do. Through an exclusive patent-pending filtration process, 4Life obtains NanoFactor™ from cow colostrum. NanoFactor possesses intuition to assess situations and enable immune cells to enhance and balance immune system function.

9. 4Life Transfer Factor Plus® Tri-Factor™ Formula 2007
We took NanoFactor and combined it with the tested strength of 4Life Transfer Factor…to create 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor Formula products. Our chief product also includes a proprietary Cordyvant™ blend of additional ingredients to nourish, strengthen, and activate your body’s ready-made immune responses.

10. 4Life Transfer Factor NK Cell Studies 2007
Studies prove that when your body needs it, Tri-Factor Formula dramatically boosts
Natural Killer (NK) cell activity…a whopping 283 percent increase. When we combined Tri-Factor Formula with other potent immune builders, it equaled a 437 percent increase!*


*Test results obtained from independent NK cell studies conducted by Dr. Anatoli Vorobiev, head of Immunology, at the Russian Academy of Medical Science. The blind studies tested 4Life Transfer Factor E-XF™ (the primary ingredient in Tri-Factor formula) and other immune system products.


4Life® opened its doors 10 years ago grounded in the indisputable science of transfer factors. Chief Executive Officer David Lisonbee took a personal quest global when he realized the potential for good contained in these mighty messenger molecules. As we look back and celebrate the past 10 years of research, development, and innovation, we also look forward to many more years of delivering the best possible support for your immune system… and a healthy life for you and your family."
