What are Transfer Factors?

Transfer Factors

Transfer factors are small immune signaling molecules originally found in white blood cells and present in colostrum. Unlike the large antibodies in colostrum , which are only optimally absorbed during the first 24 hours after birth when the gut lining is permeable, transfer factors remain bioavailable and absorbable at any age. This unique characteristic makes them effective for both therapeutic and preventative use in humans and animals well beyond the newborn stage.

One remarkable feature of transfer factors is their ability to cross species lines —meaning those derived from cows can benefit not just calves, but also dogs, cats, humans, or any mammal. Discovered in 1949, transfer factors have been the subject of thousands of studies supporting their powerful immune-modulating effects, and unfortunately have been repressed by Big Money interests for years.

Compared to colostrum, transfer factors provide a dramatically more concentrated and potent solution—boasting at least a 80:1 strength over traditional colostrum. While colostrum contains a wide range of nutrients and immune components, it delivers a smaller dose of key compounds and requires more processing steps, often resulting in inconsistent quality. In contrast, transfer factors are highly bioavailable, directly educate immune cells, and are known to activate T-cells and natural killer cells —building robust immune memory that enhances long-term defense.

With superior potency, consistency, and immune-targeting efficiency , transfer factors are an ideal solution in today’s world of increasing immune challenges, including infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammation.

What are some of the benefits of Transfer Factors?

• Immune Modulation - adjusting the body's immune system based on it's innate intelligence to enhance or suppress it's response.
• Program and encode your immune system against viruses and bacteria.
• Mitochondrial and DNA Repair.
• Neuro-Modulation & Neuro-Protection
• Immune Memory - Remember old threats to prevent new ones.
• Anti-inflammatory and acts as an antioxidant.

How do they support the immune system?

The primary function of transfer factors is to educate and activate the immune system. These molecules are produced by immune cells—primarily white blood cells—and contain crucial data about encountered pathogens. They assist in transmitting information about identified threats to other immune cells, helping them recognize and mount a targeted and efficient response when faced with similar threats in the future. This process contributes to immune memory, allowing the immune system to remember and respond more effectively to previously encountered pathogens as well as defending against new pathogenic threats.
