Immune System Support from 4Life
Transfer Factor
Vital Immune Knowledge
In the first critical days of life for humans and other mammals, a mother passes on vital immune knowledge through the first meal—colostrum—which contains transfer factor molecules. As nature’s first supplement, these memory molecules transfer immune experience to educate and prepare the newborn’s immune system to function in the world.
While vitamins and herbs provide nutrition to the immune system, transfer factors provide information so immune cells can do their jobs faster and more effectively. Research over the years has revealed that transfer factor molecules are abundant in nature. Through a patented filtration process, 4Life extracts transfer factors from cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks for the foundation of its Transferceutical™ products.
People of all ages can benefit from nature’s first supplement by borrowing immune memory from the strong, heroic immune systems of these two animals.
Transfer factors:
• Help immune cells quickly recognize invading germs or other potential threats
• Help the immune system respond more efficiently after an invader has been identified
• Lend a hand in remembering how to tackle each problem your immune system encounters, so your body knows exactly what to do the next time
4Life has gone further in promoting and researching the benefits of transfer factors than anyone else. This scientific innovation will undoubtedly continue.
Our Story
The Advancement of Immune Science
The 4Life Transfer Factor® story is a story of scientific innovation, study, and advancement in the world of immune system products. Transfer factors were originally discovered by New York University researcher Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence in 1949. Dr. Lawrence, an immunology pioneer, was highly credentialed in his field. Lawrence’s study of how immune system response could be transferred from one entity to another provided the groundwork for one of the most significant health discoveries of our time—transfer factors.
In the early 1990s, 4Life Founder and CEO David Lisonbee started a journey to better support his own health. He had become frustrated with the results of many natural products. During his pursuit, he came across transfer factor research. David discovered firsthand the value of these educational molecules as the foundation for immune system support and overall health.
Because of the success he encountered with his own health from transfer factors, David presented this information to his wife Bianca. They knew this was something that had the power to change the lives of thousands of people. In 1998, David and Bianca launched 4Life Research™ and introduced the first 4Life product: 4Life Transfer Factor® Classic.
The 4Life story began with an unparalleled commitment to innovation and support for unrivaled health. And it will undoubtedly continue with new products, studies, patents, and cutting-edge advancements.
Nanofactor
Simply Miraculous Molecules
4Life’s research of transfer factors initiated the study of smaller molecules with vast power for the immune system. Nanofraction molecules are tiny molecules within colostrum, a source of vital immune knowledge, with their own unique immune properties.
Through an exclusive patent-pending filtration method, 4Life concentrates the power of nanofraction molecules for its NanoFactor® extract. NanoFactor helps regulate immune cell reaction by supporting communication between cells, promoting stability and balance within the immune system, and prompting your body’s natural ability to stay on a healthy course. In short—NanoFactor helps your immune system know when to step up the fight and when to stop and relax.
NanoFactor offers support to immune cells by showing them:
• When to act
• How to act
• When to rest

Studies & Patents
A Commitment to Excellence
Scientists around the world have conducted numerous studies to research the effectiveness of transfer factor molecules. 4Life scientists have continued this legacy by commissioning third-party studies and in-house scientific tests to understand just how well 4Life Transfer Factor® products interact with specific immune cells.
One test shows that 4Life Transfer Factor products can increase the immune system effectiveness of Natural Killer cells (important first responders) by up to 437%.
Another preliminary scientific test suggests that 4Life Transfer Factor® Tri-Factor® Formula strengthens your immune system guard by increasing the number of protective salivary IgA antibodies by up to 73%. And, everyone tested experienced an increase!
4Life's progressive science and pursuit of patent protection strengthen the 4Life business opportunity. Patents reinforce 4Life’s credibility in the wellness industry and demonstrate the company’s long-term commitment to exclusivity and stability.
We have nine worldwide patents, and dozens more pending.
