Customer question: Do you have any data on how long Transfer Factor supplementation should last? And what is the difference between transfer factor and transfer factor plus? I understand it’s about the additional ingredients. But is the amount of the base ingredient the same?
Legal disclaimer
First, we are obliged to clarify that both 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor, Transfer Factor Classic and Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula are food supplements, not medicinal products. Food supplements are not intended to diagnose or treat any disease. Their purpose is to complement your daily diet.
One month or longer
Transfer Factor supplementation may last just a month. Based on our experience, changes in well-being should already be noticeable within this time. If the experience is positive, some individuals choose to continue supplementation as part of their regular dietary routine.
In our guide Should Transfer Factors be supplemented continuously or periodically? you’ll find more detailed advice on the best duration of Transfer Factor use.
Universal or targeted supplementation
Among 4Life’s Transfer Factor products, we distinguish between universal supplements and targeted ones — those that support specific body functions (heart, brain, pancreas, digestive system, etc.).
Universal formulas include: 4Life Transfer Factor Tri-Factor, Transfer Factor Classic and Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formula. These are suitable for individuals seeking to support their general well-being and balanced nutrition throughout the year — also great for newcomers to supplementation.
Which Transfer Factor should you choose?
- Transfer Factor Classic – single-ingredient formula with colostrum; often chosen by parents for its mild composition (always consult a pediatrician before introducing any supplement to a child).
- Transfer Factor Tri-Factor – contains colostrum and egg yolk; medium-strength, suitable for adults and teenagers.
- Transfer Factor Plus – includes colostrum, egg yolk, and added zinc, herbal and mushroom extracts; strongest formula, but not suitable for people with hypersensitive immune systems.
- Transfer Factor RioVida – a liquid formula providing 600 mg of Transfer Factors plus fruit extracts.
Where do these Transfer Factors come from?
- Classic – 200 mg TF from colostrum per capsule
- Tri-Factor – 300 mg TF from colostrum + egg yolk per capsule
- RioVida – 600 mg TF from colostrum + egg yolk in 30 ml liquid
