What diseases are transfer factors used for? Transfer factors have been researched for over 50 years and have been successfully used to treat bacterial diseases, viral infections, parasitic diseases, cancer, fungal infections, autoimmune diseases, neurological diseases and much more. In addition, no adverse side effects have been reported. Below are three testimonials from veterinarians using Transfer FactorTM on their patients:

Steven Slagle, DVM: "A cat with leukemia, an oral tumor, and posterior paralysis due to a spinal tumor was very ill and emaciated. One month after starting her on Transfer Factor Plus TM at 1 capsule per day, there was regression of the oral tumor, restored appetite with some weight gain, and increased sociability. Five months later, this cat continues to improve--she regained her normal weight, her oral tumor has regressed 80%, and she has regained use of her hind legs and tail."

Sam Jones, DVM: "Two cats, both about 8 years old, had severe diabetes. It was impossible to get the including requirements adjusted. They had lost weight to the point that they were skin and bones. Both catch had no quality of life left. After one week of being on Transfer FactorTM we were about to get their insulin requirements adjusted. It is now six months later and they have both regained their weight, and have great quality of life and health."

Sam Jones, DVM: "A four month old kitten had a severe skin condition that was diagnosed to be ringworm. After four months of conventional therapy the resistant ringworm infection was not resolved. We put the kitten on Transfer FactorTM and within 5 days, there were no apparent ringworm lesions remaining. Within a few weeks all the hair had grown back and the now 9-month-old cat has a beautiful glossy coat. The ringworm lesions have not returned."

Transfer factors are now combined into an all-in-one supplement for companion animals. TF Feline Complete, TF Canine Complete and TF Performance & Show formulas provide one-step nutrition for improved joint health and flexibility, more energy, healthier coats, stronger bones and superior immune strength. Consisting of transfer factor as well as a combination of over 100 vitamins, minerals, trace elements, essential fatty acids, amino acids, probiotics, thymus complex and other nutrients, the Animal Health 4Life products (www.animalhealth4life.com) provide the single best option for improving animals' nutritional status. These products have been formulated in cooperation with top veterinarians and breeders to ensure the best overall health for cats, dogs and horses.
