Question
Thank you very much for your very prompt and detailed reply. I will follow this protocol very closely and look forward to the change of well being.

I accidently ordered Transfer Factor Plus rather than Regular. Is this a problem or can i just take this aswell? If so should i take a reduced dose? I read on another site that the plus formula is for underactive immune systems and the regular formular for auto-immune problems which is obviously what i have.

Also you say to take TF for 3-4 months but how long should i stay on the fruta-vida and primal defence?

One last thing. Since the operation i seem to be having very loose bowl movements probably due to the part of the intestine that absorbs Bile salts being removed and now my body not coping with it. Is there anything i can do about this?

Again thank you for your response

Jamie

Question -
Hi, I have recently had an operation to have a section of small intestine taken out due to Crohn's activity and a rather nasty abcess. The operation went well but i have been put on Pentasa, 4000mg a day. I've been told that i will have to take this every day for the rest of my life and don't like that at all.
I recently read a post you dealt with back in 2004 where you mentioned about Transfer Factor and have done a fair amount of  research into this and like the idea although it's not the easiest product to get hold of in the UK but i have got hold of some none the less.
Currently i have no symptoms but would like to do something about this if Transfer Factor can balance my immune system back to normal.

I was first diagnosed when i was Thirteen and after treatment had a remission period of 13 years without any drugs whatsoever until recent events and don't know why i've been told i have to take Pentasa every day for the rest of my life seeing as i didn't have to before.

My main question if Transfer Factor is the right  thing to take is what sort of dosage should i take and how long should i keep this up for?

Dear Jamie,

Thank you for your question.

I will provide you with a complete protocol to reverse this illness.

To begin with crohn's can be reversed quite easily.
It is an auto-immune imbalance. The 'transfer factor-advanced formula' will definitely help. Take the regular dosage. This product is natural, is an immune balancer rather than a stimulator.

Can be purchased through this site:
http://trinity.my4life.com  

Closer to the top right hand side of the site you will see a little black arrow pointing downwards. Click on it and choose your country from the menu, then proceed to order. They will have the product shipped to you from the nearest branch, which is in the UK.

Together with this i advise you add two more supplements. The first is fruta-vida, which is a potent nutritional product. It is important to take in good nutrition, antioxidants, chlorophyll, saponins... etc,  in general high quality minerals and vitamins. This will benefit overall health as well as your specific condition by reducing the immune inflammatory response.

With the fruta-vida, you would take 1 ounce per day, and gradually increase to 2 ounces over 2 months, that's all.

It is a liquid supplement. It is produced in the US but they have distribution centers in Europe. You may place your order through this link below and the product will be shipped directly to you in London from the closest distribution center. We now have quite a few people from the UK purchasing this product, so i assume they now have a distribution center in the UK.

Finally you will take a supplement called 'primal defence'. It is made by a company called 'garden of life'. It might be available at your local health stores actually, please enquire.

This product is a probiotic and HSO supplement. It will provide your colon with beneficial or good bacteria which will help eradicate toxins, harmful bacteria, will help normalize bowel function, absorption and digestion. Take the regular dosage of 3 caplets per day.  

Take these 3 in combination daily, and you will feel new again.  

These supplements help the physical body by providing correct building blocks so that the body can heal itself and regain complete balance.

You will not have to continue with transfer factor for too long. Take it for 3-4 months, but continue with the other two. The fruta-vida and primal defence are very important.

You could use transfer factor by itself, as i have advised in the past, but tripple the dose would be needed. With the current protocol though, you will receive better results due to the introduction of good nutrition.

If you live or work around a lot of electrical devices, computers, printers, cell phones/cell phone towers, power lines and so on, you should know that your body is being bombarded by EM radiation. Electro magnetic radiation is very dangerous to human health. It makes regeneration or healing very difficult. If you are in such circumstances please let me know and i will provide you with an effective technological solution.

Dietary Recceomendations:

Cut out all soy products, except fermented soy.
Miso, tempeh and soy-sauce are healthy. [fermented]
Soy contains goitrogens which depress thyroid function. It also contains phytic acid which hinders the bodies' ability to absorb proteins, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc. In general it is an enzyme inhibitor.

Make sure you avoid all artificial sweeteners:
splenda, sucralose, aspartame, nutra-sweet, equal, acesulfame potassium.

Splenda/sucralose have become very popular these days and are just as bad, if not worse than aspartame. These sweeteners are very toxic and are found in store bought vitamins, protein powders, anything sugar-free, gum, chocolate, soda... etc.

Please read labels carefully and cut out all artificial sweeteners. This is very important.

Soy and artificial sweeteners both weaken the immune system. And the immune system is one of the keys to healing illness. Therefore the more we can support immune related health, the better.

Cut out all margarine and hydrogenated fats. Cut out canola, rapeseed and soybean oils. These are very unhealthy. Replace with butter, ghee, unrefined coconut oil, sesame oil, and virgin olive oil.  

7 glasses of water per day is a good idea to help flush out toxins from the body. Warm or room temperature water, never cold. Never drink tap water. It must be filtered. Avoid drinking distilled water. It leads to mineral depletion and hair loss.

This concludes the protocol. Please feel free to email me if i may be of any further help to you.

Best wishes,

Imran

Dear Jamie,

Thank you for your letter.

If you have ordered tf-plus, then start with only 1 capsule daily for the first 14 days. Get onto taking 2 capsules after that. Do not exceed 2 for now. It will most likely serve your needs well if you modulate the dosage this way.

With the fruta-vida and primal defence i would recommend you stay on these permanently. Do not take any multivitamins or mineral formulas, as the frutavida will provide this in natural form and more. See this link for nutritional information:

http://www.tryfrutavida.com/main/fvjuice.htm     

Product can be ordered through this link as well.

If you are taking calcium, continue. Make sure it is calcium citrate. Never take carbonate. Omega-3 is also beneficial. If you are already taking fish oil make sure the bottle says, certified dioxin free. Do not take omega 6 as you will not need this.

The primal defence is a probiotic and should also be continued with the frutavida as it will completely eliminate lose bowel movements. These two together are most effective.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best wishes,

Imran
