TRANSFER
FACTOR RECALL
TESTIMONIALS
In September
2003 I decided to try Transfer Factor Recall. I took two capsules/day.
I continued taking my normal dose of Adderal. I felt no effects from
the product until Wednesday of the following week (10 days later).
Twice that day I remembered facts from the previous day that I
ordinarily never would - the first, some directions someone had given
me, the next, a conversation with someone. I was sort of taken aback it
was very atypical for me. I wondered if it could have anything to do
with the product, but felt guarded about jumping to conclusions. Much
to my delight, that sort of memory began to improve rapidly. My ability
to communicate, in ways I had never experienced, began to develop. That
change was rapid, once it began. I felt as if doors and corridors in my
mind, whose existence I hadn't realized, were being opened. I found
myself staying on track - with tasks and in conversation - in ways the
Adderal never touched. I was increasingly able to communicate with an
easy flow of thought, building concepts, responding in an easier give
and take of ideas. Whether speaking or listening, if I did begin to
digress I could recognize it right away, and easily get back on track.
The vocabulary I'd thought of as my "reading" vocabulary became more
and more available as I spoke. It was amazing. I kept - and still do -
wondering where 'that' word had been hiding for so long - when I'd
tucked it away.
After about three weeks of beginning
Transfer Factor Recall, I stopped taking Adderal - completely
overnight. I wanted to see what difference it made - whether I
regressed. The regression never happened! I was relieved to be able to
stop taking the drug. I doubled my dosage of the Recall to
4/day. I would say that discernible improvements in my
thinking and speaking capacities continued to improve for about six
weeks after initially taking the product, and then leveled out. I
basically feel that my mind has been freed - not totally, as in total
recall and perfection of thinking and communication, but amazingly. My
memory, while greatly improved in areas such as remembering commitments
or appointments, could still be better. My ability to remember names
has improved, but still lacks a lot. I never have - and still do not -
multi-task well. I'm 57 years old. How much more improvement can I
expect? I'm willing to find out - have just recently increased my
dosage to 6/day.
Charles D.
My
wife is 79 years old and was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease several
years ago She got so bad that she couldn't even remember her own name.
My son ordered certain nutrients from all over the world. As long as
she was on these nutrients, she could recognize people and interact
fairly successfully. The problem was that when these ingredients are
purchased individually they cost my son more than $500 per month. When
Transfer Factor Recall came out, he switched her to it. This product is
amazing! If she doesn't have it just for a few days, she is lost. I
realize it is not a cure, but it is nice to have my wife somewhat alert
as long as possible."
Chase
Our
oldest son Chase was beginning to exhibit a couple of the classic ADD
symptoms. Prior to his starting on TF Recall, almost every one of his
teachers commented that he seemed "easily distracted" and had "trouble
focusing." We just got through finals and had parent-teacher
conferences last week. Not one teacher commented on his distractibility
or his difficulty focusing. He has improved almost a full letter grade
in each of his core academic classes at a very academically rigorous
school. He is currently taking 3 TF Recall per day.
Daniel
My
name is S.D. and I live in Alaska. I have a thirteen year-old son,
Daniel. My son had lived with his father for seven years and I recently
gained custody of him. When Daniel arrived, he was on Ritalin twice a
day. He had severe constipation and had been on Haleys M.O. for seven
years. The Ritalin made him sick, drool, and shake. The Haley's MO made
him sick from the taste, not to mention possible over dosage of
aluminum.
Daniel was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD when he
was five. His diet consisted mainly of fast food from Pizza Hut, Burger
King, and McDonald's. The first thing I did was locate the best
pediatrician in town and make an appointment. At that time I voiced my
concerns over his medication and the side effects, and wondered if
there was another way we might handle it. The doctor recommended a
long-term dosage of Concerta (a time-released amphetamine). He had bad
side effects from that medication, migraines, vomiting and shaking. I
went back to the Dr. and requested smaller doses of Concerta. After
many arguments we switched him to the smallest dose possible. After
several times of discussing Daniel's bowel problems with the Dr., he
prescribed a laxative called Miralax (Polyethylene Glycol 3350), 17
grams with a glass of water. He was diagnosed with encopresis
(involuntary defecation of psychotic origin.)
I
enrolled him in family therapy with a great therapist enrolled him in
Kung fu, started him on a vitamin and mineral supplement, and gave it
to him for about a year with no results. At this time I became involved
with Transfer Factor and the 4Life Research family of products for my
own use. I decided to try the enzymes and probiotics for his
constipation. They worked within a day! My son was so excited that he
had gone to the bathroom without having to take some awful liquid, and
for the first time he could remember going to the bathroom without
severe pain and straining. When Daniel first arrived, he had
a thorough neuro-psychological evaluation. I was told that he not only
had ADD/ADHD, but also Asperger's Syndrome (a mild form of autism) and
PTS (Post Traumatic Syndrome) The following is from his evaluation and
I quote verbatim: "He also tends to escalate both verbally and
physically, indicating ongoing 'willful disobedience' and forced
vomiting in a school setting. Symptom-based pharmacotherapy
is likely to be helpful in maximizing Daniel's adaptive skills.
Psychostimulant medications are likely to assist him in maintaining
concentration in the academic setting. His pattern of extreme rage
reactions and general reactivity suggest he may also benefit from mood
stabilizing medications."
After my son had lived
with me one year, and after trying all the newest medications, Daniel
asked if he could come off the medication. We talked about it and I
told him I was going to put him on Transfer Factor and vitamins, but he
had to keep taking the enzymes and probiotics. His Doctor and teachers
did not think that it would work so we made a deal: if he did not
improve in two or three months or if his grades slipped, he would then
go back on the traditional medicines. I put my Daniel on the Transfer
Factor Kids, the Transfer Factor Chewables, and when Transfer Factor
Recall came out, I put him on that, also. The really great part is that
before Transfer Factor Recall it could take him a day to complete a
page of math. He now is completing comparable quantities in fifteen to
twenty minutes. He is doing so well that some of his teachers have
started inquiring about the Transfer Factor family of products. I have
sold some to the teachers at his school. I asked my son if he thought
that the TF Recall was making a difference and he gave me a resounding,
"Yes!" Daniel was in special education for a year and a half and rode
the Special Ed bus. This year he is mainstreamed into the regular
curriculum and is maintaining an A-B average. He has not been suspended
since starting school this year. Last year he was suspended every other
week. Daniel is now remembering names much better than before starting
the TF Recall. I saw improvement in three weeks, he is still improving.
It has been a gradual but steady improvement. With the Recall we
started on one a day for one week, two a day for two weeks and we are
staying at the three a day. Transfer Factor has given Daniel and me a
wonderful, new life.
Devon ( (as told
by his parents Dr. and Mrs. C)
Devon was born in
July 1995. Devon was diagnosed with a myriad of behavioral disorders
including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHO), Obsessive
Compulsive Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder ~ODD). He was
given Strattera, Celexa, Tenex, and Clonidine in an attempt to treat
various aspects of his behavioral problems. During November and
December of 2002, he received the flu shot because he was always sick
and it was thought that the vaccine would be protective. By February
Devon's behavior was completely out of control and his parents were at
their wits end. What was wrong? An internet search revealed that the
symptoms matched 'heavy metal toxicity' (see www.nomercury.org).
Thymerisol, a mercury compound, is often used as a preservative in many
vaccines. By 8/03 Devon was evaluated by a neuropsychologist and after
much testing was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, a mild form of
autism. In addition he suffered from eczema, asthma, which was treated
with steroid inhalers, and frequent ear, nose, and throat infections
resulting in missed school days.
In November Devon
began using Transfer Factor (3 capsules twice a day) and Transfer
Factor Recall (1 capsule three times a day). Devon improved gradually
over the next three weeks. Devon's symptoms then returned with even
greater severity which is typical of a yeast die-off reaction
associated with recovery of immune competence
(www.danasview.net/yeast.htm). The yeast die-off reaction lasted 24
hours after which Devon recovered all of his previous progress and
continued to improve gradually. Devon's asthma was limited to one
attack that required steroids for one week instead of the usual three
weeks. His eczema cleared and he had only one minor bout with fever
lasting 24 hours. Devon was able to enjoy a 600 mile RV trip to his
grandparents for Christmas without difficulty. This would have been out
of the question a month before. By January he was completely off his
medications and by March he grown one inch and had gained SEVEN pounds.
Unfortunately
Devon ran out of Transfer Factor. Within weeks his symptoms were back,
precipitated by yeast over growth. He was put back on his original
medications. This unfortunate experiment left no doubt in the minds of
Devon's parents that the strengthening of Devon's immune system through
use of the Transfer Factor products was responsible for Devon's
improvements. At the time of this writing, Devon was back on Transfer
Factor (3capsules twice a day) and will soon restart taking Transfer
Factor Recall.
James M.
Our
nine-year-old son was a very slow learner and has always had problems
with hyperactivity and mood swings. We started out giving him 1/2 oz
RiteLife, 3 Transfer Factor Kids, 4 Inner Sun, 2 PBGS+, and 1 BioEFA.
He has been taking these products for two years and was doing much
better in school-going from a "D” average to a “B” average. He has
definitely become more self-assured, has had more friends and enjoys
school.
At the beginning of school in September
2003, we added 2 Transfer Factor Recall to his supplements. His grades
went up to a “B+” average within a month. He is remembering much better
and looks forward to school. We have found that this combination of
product really works for our son.
Larry Z
Recently
our six-year old started first grade. He has always been a very shy
child and had a lot of trouble remembering where he left his shoes,
toys and was always misplacing his coat. After starting school he never
remembered to bring his books home or his homework back. Our friends
encouraged us to try 3 Transfer Factor Kids and 3 Transfer Factor
Recall daily. After only two weeks, we noticed how his memory was
improved. He was actually keeping up with his clothes and books. His
reading and spelling improved in a big way. He now likes to read books
to the family and perform his weekly spelling words. I had some of
these same problems when I was a child and am so glad that we have
found products that are safe, natural, and are working for him. We have
also noticed that he no longer gets colds or earaches.
Loretta Z.
I
am a 57 year-old who has always had an ADD problem. I have had a hard
time focusing on projects and finishing them. It was very depressing
having to work so hard to finish things. I also noticed that in driving
my car, I was becoming increasingly distracted. I had even noticed a
loss in my hearing and vision.
Last fall I started
taking 4Life products to upgrade my nutrition. When I started taking
them I had no idea that they would change my life. I started taking
RiteStart Women 2 packets a day and 3 Transfer Factor Recall a day. It
made a huge difference in only five days. My memory and focus got
better, my vision and hearing are improving, and best of all, I am no
longer depressed. I will always take these products. I am a new person,
for the first time in my life I feel normal.
Mary (as related
by her mother)
In February 2003 my daughter Mary,
who is in the 1st grade, displayed hyperactivity, out-of-control
behavior, and poor grades for a little girl with a great amount of
intelligence. She was a creative and social student who just could not
stay focused. A nutritional consultant and former teacher suggested we
start her on Transfer Factor Kids (3), RiteLife (1/2 oz.), PBGS+ (2)
and BioEFA (1) per day.
She started to improve
almost immediately in her attitude and hyperactivity, but she still had
problems in focusing on her homework. Recently we added Transfer Factor
Recall (2) and her grades went from low B's to high A's. She is also
less stressed. We are thrilled with the results.
Mary E.
I
was diagnosed as being ADD in September, 1999, by a psychiatrist who is
internationally respected in this area. I'd gone to her after being
told by another professional that he thought I was ADD. When at her
request I read literature describing ADD, I realized with that I was a
classic case. I further realized when analyzing my family (part of my
assignment) that my father, one brother, two of my nephews also fit the
description. (ADD is thought to have a strong genetic component.) She
prescribed the drug Adderal (Ampheta S/Combo), and I decided to try it,
as the problems associated with my ADD had been serious and life-long.
I took a low dose (2.5 mg.) once or twice a day, had no negative
reactions, and was elated at its effect, which was to help me to stay
focused. I felt I was able to accomplish twice as much in a quarter of
the time without constant struggle. That greatly decreased the stress
in my life
I was typical of an ADD victim - my whole
life I had been distracted by everything within visual, audible, and
mental range. Once off-track, whatever I'd deviated from was "out the
window." It took concentrated effort to get connected back.
This included conversations, household tasks, lists of errands etc. I
compensated with lists, notes and alarm clocks, going back and forth a
lot. I apologized a lot. In order to study, I had to clear away any
disorder, and complete any task that might be nagging at me. I was
right at home in the outdoors, where such hypersensitivity is an asset.
Cities, crowds, and a lot of noise were difficult.
My
memory was not good. That causes a lot of trouble, big (anniversaries,
appointments) and small. My reading vocabulary was only partially
available to me when speaking. I'm an artist, but put my art away when
I began a family, as I knew it would cause a serious conflict. I saved
great books for holidays - no such thing for me as reading for fifteen
minutes at bed-time. All this can be extremely stressful, both to the
individual trying to function in spite of it and to those around them.
Mental Acuity
Higher
mental function is largely what distinguishes man from the beasts.
Self-awareness, self-control, memory and reasoning are all higher
mental functions. Mental maturation is measured by the increase in
these functions. Mental degradation is measured by their loss.
Physically, thought is the result of coordinated brain activity. Mental
developmental concerns span the gamut from attention deficit to autism.
Degradation of mental function are may take the form of vascular
dementia (due to stokes or Alzheimer's disease, among others. It is
important to note that Alzheimer's Disease is not a normal part of
aging.
Recent studies have shown that dropping
antioxidant levels are highly correlated with loss of brain
function. In addition large quantities of antioxidant enzymes
are present in Alzheimer's disease, but the enzymes are largely
inactive the loss of antioxidant protection results in increased lipid
peroxidation as well as protein (beta-amyloid) oxidation. Inadequate
antioxidant protection leads to decreased brain metabolism which in
turn leads to defective mentation.
It is well
accepted that brain inflammation contributes to neurological damage and
that inflammation may be critical in initiating Alzheimer's
disease. The debate about infections and mental
dysfunction is still raging. Nevertheless the body of evidence is
increasingly pointing toward infection as a key initiating factor in
neuro-degenerative diseases. All of these factors contribute to the
interruption of chemicals which are carrying complex messages between
nerve cells in the brain.
The ingestion of transfer
factor has been shown to produce significant cell protective
affects. These included increased antioxidant levels,
decreased lipid and protein oxidation, and increased cell stability.
Each of these benefits is critical to maintaining and improving mental
function. Transfer factor expresses its benefits through immune system
support. An improved immune function results in more rapid resolution
of infections and diminished inflammation. This reduces oxidative
stress in the body which reduces lipid and protein damage with the
overall result of increased cell integrity. Maintaining the integrity
of the brain, and the other parts of the central nervous system,
results in improved mental efficiency.
Name Withheld
(Female, 25 years old)
I have always had a problem
with focus and memory. I have taken many nutritional supplements and
they have helped some. However, my recent introduction to the 4-Life
products has improved my memory, helped my body be calmer, and helped
my ADD tendencies. I am now even more creative and have more good
energy. I take TF Recall (3), PBGS+ (4), and RiteStart (1).
