Transfer Factors are strands of amino acids and bits of RNA passed from mothers to their offspring during breastfeeding. These molecules store the memory of battles fought by the mother's immune system against viruses, bacteria, mycobacteria and cancer. They instruct the newborn's immune system how to do the same. When extracted from colostrum and taken as supplements, they boost immune system health in profound ways. Research suggests they can safely and effectively help the body battle conditions like chronic fatigue, cancer, herpes infections, arthritis and several others. When Transfer Factors from a person that is immune to a virus or bacteria are given to a person who does not have such immunity, the immunity is literally "transferred" from the first person to the second. Transfer Factors have enormous potential for improving public health and preventing the spread of infectious diseases.
I have struggled with my immune system for years after becoming resistant or immune to so many antibiotics. After being put on transfer factors and having a doctor recommend this book, it really has helped me know how to make myself better when I have an immune system flare up.
