I truly believe it helped my puppy to live! We purchased a puppy and it became very sick. We took her to the vet and the medicine was not working. After several visits to the vet I decided to also try some transfer factor. She started feeling better pretty quickly after that. Also, we had a duck fly in and lay her eggs. Not the best experience for our pool once they hatched but it happened. One by one the ducks started dying. I called a vet but I couldn’t find one that would deal with the situation so I decided why not try to feed it some transfer factor. I fully expected the duck to die because the vet said once they start dying they will all die. So why not try....to my surprise the only remaining duck lived and one day flew away. I was shocked. Not promising that will happen for anyone else but it did happen for us. Side note..in full disclosure I am an independent rep but I really just use it myself.
Not making money off of it. They no longer carry the product I used for our Yorkie or the duck. It was for animals. Transfer Factor Plus absolutely works with my husband. He doesn’t have cold sores anymore. If he runs out for a period of time they seem to come right back but if he is taking it...no more cold sores. Read More Read Less

EffectivenessEase of UseSatisfactionAll pains and fatigue seems to disappear and my mood seems to be relaxed... I was able to conceptualize my situation and thus I don't have any fast heartbeat as I experience. After 8 years of using transfer factors I feel my body more energetic, my skin condition is very good and supple with nice moisture and I feel I am younger than my current age. When I stopped using transfer factor I don't have a relapse but I tend to favour consuming it coz I have less visits to the doctor. My overall health has improve so is my alertness and memory retention.

EffectivenessEase of UseSatisfactionAfter reading the review and doing indepth research on transfer factors over these last 13 years I can tell you that the dose of transfer factors that you consume depends on your immune load (how hammered is your immune system?) not your weight. I have successfully used: Transfer Factor Plus, Glutamine Prime, Transfer Factor Belle Vie ( supports healthy female tissues), Transfer Factor Recall (supports a healthy brain), Enumme Toothpast, TF Gel for first aide on closed wounds, bruises and warts!!! and Probiotics all from 4life Research and have not needed to see a doctor or fill a prescription for Shingells, Gingivitis or fever blisters or anything. By way of explanation, my fever blisters were so bad that they ran along the dermatone going down my throat.
..it felt like I had strep every 3 weeks and it would last for 10 days. All that resolved in the first month of immune support with 4Life Transfer Factors. If I feel the Shingels or fever blisters or anything like a cold or flu coming coming I just triple my dose, add 4Life Glutamine Prime and chill out and the outbreak is thwarted by my immune system. When you take Transfer Factors they confer immunity and sometimes they help you to develop it, and sometimes they just get you through a tough illness quicker...like 24 hours instead of a week or two! I also have never needed a flu shot since I started using 4Life Transfer Factor back in 1998. In all the research I have read there is no indication that a strong immune response is anything but good and that it is a compatable with health and wellness. From what I have read Transfer Factors can be used by anyone except people that have had organ transplants.Read More Read Less

Vitamin B4 (Choline) - effects on the body, benefits and harms, description
General characteristics of vitamin B4 (Choline)
Vitamin B4 in its pure form was obtained in the 19th century from bile, but its role for humans became known in 1930 after a series of animal experiments.
Choline (from the Greek χολή - bile) is a vitamin-like substance that has a membrane-protective (protects cell membranes from destruction and damage), anti-atherosclerotic (reduces cholesterol levels in the blood), nootropic, antidepressant, calming effect.
Choline improves metabolism in the nervous tissue, prevents the formation of gallstones, normalizes fat metabolism and helps to reduce weight.
Choline, its salts and esters are registered as food additive E1001.
Physical and chemical properties of vitamin B4
Vitamin B4 is a hygroscopic colorless crystals, readily soluble in water, is destroyed during heat treatment.
Food sources of vitamin B4
Choline is able to synthesize itself in the body, but in environmental conditions this amount is not enough, so doctors recommend increasing its content in the body with food.
The richest food in choline is egg yolk. Good sources of B4 are: liver, kidneys, meat, fish, cottage cheese, cheese. Unrefined vegetable oils, legumes, some vegetables (cabbage, spinach, carrots, tomatoes) also contain choline.
Daily requirement of vitamin B4
Vitamin B4 is especially necessary for people engaged in mental work, schoolchildren, students, as well as people engaged in heavy physical labor, athletes.
Daily requirement for choline:
- Children 0 to 11 months 50-70 mg;
- Children 1 to 3 years 70-90 mg;
- Children 3 to 7 years 100-200 mg;
- Children 7 to 18 years 200-500 mg;
- Men and women over 18 years old is 500 mg;
- Pregnant women - 700 mg;
Useful properties of vitamin B4
Choline plays an important role in the normal functioning of the nervous system. He is involved in the formation of a protective myelin sheath of nerves (calorizator). The presence of choline in the body prevents the destruction of the myelin layer, from damage to nerve cells. And also choline is the most important component of phospholipids (membranes) of cells.
Choline is a precursor of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, the most important neurotransmitter-transmitter of the nerve impulse. Thus, choline prevents disorders of the nervous system.
Choline is also a hepatoprotector, it accelerates the structural recovery of damaged liver tissues under the toxic effects of drugs, viruses, alcohol and drugs.
It improves liver function, prevents the formation of gallstones.
Choline reduces the level of cholesterol and the concentration of fatty acids in the blood, cleanses the walls of blood vessels from cholesterol plaques. Choline promotes the formation of methionine, due to which excesses of a special substance, homocysteine, which increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, are removed. As a result, choline strengthens the heart muscle, normalizes the heart rhythm.
Vitamin B4 is involved in carbohydrate metabolism in the pancreas. It strengthens the membranes of beta cells that produce insulin, thus normalizing blood sugar levels. In type 1 diabetes, the use of choline helps to reduce the need for insulin. In type II diabetes, choline helps to compensate for the lack of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the body in order to reduce excess insulin levels (excess insulin is one of the factors in the development of type II diabetes).
Choline plays an important role in human reproduction.
It is involved in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins in the prostate gland, increases sperm motility, and in old age prevents disruption of the prostate gland.
Choline stimulates the enzymatic breakdown of fats, normalizing fat metabolism.
At the end of the eighties of the last century, an experiment was conducted: English psychophysiologists gave 10 grams of choline to a group of volunteers for 10 days (calorizer). Tests conducted at the beginning and at the end of the experiment showed a significant improvement in short-term memory of the subjects.
Choline is the most important building material of the brain. Additional consumption of it by pregnant women (the fetus cannot produce it on its own) and children of the first five years of life has a positive effect on the mental abilities of babies.
Harmful properties of vitamin B4
Vitamin B4 can cause harm only in case of overdose. May cause: hypersensitivity, nausea, increased salivation and sweating, intestinal upset.
Vitamin B4 absorption
Better assimilation of choline is affected by folic acid, vitamin B8, vitamin A, and other B vitamins.
Vitamin B4 deficiency in the body ;
Excess of vitamin B4 in the body
Usually, a long-term excess of vitamin B4 in the body does not cause painful effects. But in some individual cases, the following symptoms may appear: nausea, increased sweating, intestinal upset, low blood pressure.
Interaction of vitamin B4 (Choline) with other substances
In combination with lecithin, vitamin B4 promotes the transport and metabolism of fats in the liver, and its lack in nutrition leads to its fatty degeneration (hepatosis).
Choline deficiency can occur with low intake of folic acid (vitamin B9) and vitamin B12.
B4 contributes to the complete absorption of fat-soluble vitamins: vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K.
Some antibacterial drugs, steroid hormones, alcoholic beverages or alcohol-containing substances reduce the level of choline activity.

where is it kept and who needs to take it? Consequences of excess and deficiency of vitamin B4 - Healthy lifestyle - tsn.ua
Choline stimulates the brain, enhances concentration and improves the ability to perceive and remember. Necessary during pregnancy for mother and unborn child.
Among the nutrients that are very important for health but rarely found in our diet is choline, commonly known as vitamin B4. Choline stimulates the brain, has a positive effect on fat metabolism and, most importantly, plays a fundamental role in pregnant women. The wide range of properties of B4 indicates a mandatory increase in its intake in the diet, both with food and in the form of nutritional supplements.
Family medicine doctor Christina Shevchenko talks about what choline is, where it is found and what the body needs.
What is B4 and what functions does the vitamin play in the body?
Originally classified as a B-complex and was named vitamin B4. It is now classified as a vitamin-like compound as a result of a discovery regarding its production by the body and due to its valuable biological properties.
Also read
B4 is found mainly in phospholipids and is a precursor to phosphatidylcholine, a key component influencing the proper functioning of neuronal cell membranes. Choline plays an important role in the functioning of the liver, where it is involved in the metabolism of cholesterol and other fatty components. Thus, it prevents the accumulation of these compounds in the gallbladder and in the walls of blood vessels. B4 determines the proper functioning of the nervous system - affects the development of nerve cells and their shape, as well as nerve transmission in the brain.
Vitamin B4 plays a very important role in the human body. Its tasks include:
- significant influence on cell formation and inhibition of cell wall deformation;
- regulation of the muscular system, control of its function and ability to regenerate;
- participation in the proper functioning of the respiratory system, improving the quality of breathing;
- support of the coronary and cardiovascular systems;
- help in regulating the functioning of the liver, maintaining its structure in the best condition;
- suppression of excessive accumulation of fat molecules in the liver, which reduces the risk of fatty hepatosis;
- help in the process of splitting cholesterol and other substances, the excess of which is dangerous for humans;
- improve the functioning of the entire nervous system, strengthen long-term memory, reduce the risk of developing dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
Vitamin B4 is very important for pregnant women.
Its presence allows the proper development of the brain and central nervous system of the child, and also significantly reduces the risk of birth defects. Its task is to properly deliver nutrients to the fetus through the placenta, so that the unborn child has a chance for full development.
It is during pregnancy that the need for choline increases significantly, and often the amount of vitamin B4 consumed with food is insufficient. Therefore, in order to ensure adequate levels of choline in the body of the expectant mother, you should consider taking nutritional supplements with your doctor.
What is the need for choline in women (breastfeeding and pregnant) and men
Depending on age, health, gender and genetics, the need for choline can vary significantly. The recommended daily dose for women is in the range of 425 mg and for men it is 550 mg.
Also read
During a special period in a woman's life, such as pregnancy and breastfeeding, the amount of vitamin B4 that needs to be provided increases slightly.
The recommended daily dose of choline in this group is approximately 450 mg for pregnant women and 550 mg for nursing mothers. The developing fetus receives choline through the placenta from the mother.
Choline Deficiency Symptoms
Sometimes, despite a well-chosen diet, we cannot provide the body with the right amount of vitamin B4, so it is worth considering supplements. In states of choline deficiency, the following are observed:
- decrease in mental performance, memory and concentration;
- increased exposure to adverse stressors;
- irritability, headache, tinnitus, cardiac and circulatory disorders.
Decreased choline levels are especially dangerous for pregnant and lactating women. Low levels of choline in a pregnant woman can lead to neural tube defects in the fetus, even though folic acid levels are normal.
Can there be an excess of vitamin B4
An excess of choline in the body is very rare.
This is a vitamin that is easily soluble in water, so its excess is quickly excreted in the urine or sweat. When there is too much choline in the tissues of the body, for example, in the case of uncontrolled intake of a nutritional supplement, the following symptoms can be noticed:
- severe diarrhoea;
- nausea, sometimes with vomiting;
- excessive sweating;
- drop in blood pressure and drowsiness.
Where is vitamin B4 located. Which foods contain the most choline
Vitamin B4 deficiency is very dangerous for the body. Insufficient intake of a substance due to the many important functions that it performs leads to disruption of the most important human systems. The best way to enrich the body with choline is to eat the right foods. So, most of all vitamin B4 is found in food, namely:
- chicken eggs;
- beef;
- wheat, bran;
- nuts, especially walnuts and cashews;
- legumes (chickpeas, soybeans and lentils).
