The
Importance of A Healthy Immune System
as Your Best Defense
April 25, 2003 – During the past few weeks there have been numerous
media reports about a new and highly contagious form of atypical
pneumonia that is being called Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome or SARS.
Researchers have recently identified the cause as a new strain of
coronavirus. SARS is just the latest in a series of previously
unidentified infectious agents that are causing serious concerns around
the world. They spread, virtually unimpeded, from one continent to
another through international air travel. While there has been
disagreement among experts as to the etiology of the disease, there has
always been overwhelming agreement that one’s immune system provides
the best defense against contracting SARS or any other of these new
infectious agents. 4Life Research, the exclusive US supplier of patented
Transfer Factor products, has endorsed this philosophy since its
inception. 4Life’s research and development focus has always been that
the key to staying healthy and resisting disease rests with our immune
system.
Several noted
doctors and researchers involved with 4Life Research and Transfer Factor
have recently made the following statements:
“The unfolding
events surrounding Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, (SARS) is yet
another painful reminder that we live in a crowded world where
continents are only a plane ride away. The SARS epidemic is only one of
an ongoing series of new emerging diseases. Our best global and personal
strategy is to do all in our power to ensure and support our unique
abilities of disease resistance and immunity”
Richard Bennett, PhD.
"It is
increasingly clear that as the world becomes a smaller place, with
viruses and other pathogens traveling with great ease, we now face a
unique situation. Simply put, we are now, and will continue to be more
exposed to challenges to our health. However, nature has already
provided the immune system as our defense to microbes found in our
environment. The degree to which we are able to educate our immune
systems to recognize invaders will help determine our ability to cope
with health challenges. I urge all people to pay attention to those
things that affect their immune systems."
William J. Hennen, Ph.D.

4Life Press Release April 25, 2003
This
information has not been evaluated by the FDA or 4Life. This
information is not intended to promote any of our products as a medical
cure. Nutrients do not directly cure diseases or destroy germs.
Nutrients reinforce the immune system. Our immune system naturally
fights germs and attempts to keep us well. Although there is a
volume of research that would indicate nutrition has a powerful effect
on our immune system and health, all research is open to interpretation
and contradictions. We cannot conclude that in vitro (In the lab)
studies will work in the human body.
When analyzing in vivo studies (in the body), one must understand
the nature of the study and products involved in order to draw a viable
conclusion.
Remember that even doctors have differences of opinions.
Some doctors will endorse natural products for medical use while
others will not.
A possible placebo effect must be taken into consideration when
reviewing testimonies. The preceding information is provided as
one source of educating oneself.
