Is Transfer Factor Multi-Immune Effective For Chronic Mucocutaneous Candidiasis?
Question: Hi I just started to take Transfer Factor Multi-Immune last week. I have a feeling that I feel stronger.
I have been dealing with candida for the last 4 years and been taking probiotics and several supplements -which helped. But this is the first time that I actually feel good. But I have a sense of a low fever for 4 years. Could be estrogen levels, could be candida. Is it reasonable that Transfer Factor Multi-Immune is could make the positive difference? and Why? Also, just started Beta Plus by Biotics.

Brief Answer:
Explained below;carefull not to take beta plus more than 3 months....
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concern.
1. For your information, a transfer factor is a type of chemical that is extracted from humans or animals that have already developed immunity to a certain disease.
The supplement you started Transfer Factor Multi-immune containing certain ingredients that tend to promote healthy NK cell levels; thus, promoting a healthy immune response at cellular level.
2. Beta plus is another supplement containing digestive enzymes, bile extracts, beet extract and antioxidant that will help intestinal digestion of fat and other nutrients. This will lessens your GI symptoms as foods will get easily digested.
3. In other words, you try to fight candida with transfer factor, while beta plus will help with digestion. The use of antibiotics is always associated with imbalance of intestinal flora, leading to candida overgrowth that you experienced.
I hope transfer factor and beta plus will help you further. However, I warn you not to use for long periods to avoid undesirable side effects. If you still got your gallbladder, please use beta plus non more than 3 consecutive months.
Their effect is not present within 24 hours but will be noted after a few weeks of taking them.
All the best!

So glad to have your information`very helpful.
I had a chance to research both products but did not find undesirable side effects.
Please explain.
I do have my gallbladder. I was convincing myself to do the gallbladder flush with the malic acid and olive oil so that the duct would open causing the stones to flush out. 4 years ago - dealing with my bladder- the scan showed that I had two small stones that were seeable - meaning that they had calcified. As I would rather avoid an incident, my Naturopathic Dr suggested I treat my situation as if I did not have a gallbladder and see if the use of the transfer factor multi-immune and beta plus would be effective. It appears that it has (not completely but certainly an amazing
improvement).
I get a slight burning sensation in my gut (as when I had used HCL). I will take less but was hoping to stay on the product. The Transfer Factor multi-immune from Researched Nutritionals uses the egg whites for a chicken egg and not a cow or human.
I have more questions regarding my immune system but I will not encumber this direct question.
Thanks so much.
