Does anybody know if transfer factor helps with increasing the white and red blood cell levels along with the platelets? I don't know if it depends if you take the type of transfer factor corresponding to your co-infection and lyme or one to build the immune system.

Transfer Factor increased my white cell count when it got low. That is why my now famous lyme doctor put me on it.
It brought up my white cell count to normal in 2 weeks.
I don't believe it would increase the red cells or platelets, just going by what it is.

My daughter will be starting transfer factor for a viral infection and mycoplasms. I had to order them today through our LLMD. He wanted her to be on them.
Thanks for your feedback.

I have not heard of Transfer Factor. Is this something I want to speak to my doctor about before adding to my regimen?
How can I find out which type is most effective for me?
I have a low CD57 like the majority of you.

I took the chisolm brand at one time, before I knew I had lyme. I took the #2 and the #9 and I did see some results. The tingling in my back left side stopped and sore throats subsided and overall I just felt a little less sick and tired. But, once I stopped, the things came back and they are expensive.
However, I highly recommend this company for TF. Also, I was lucky because my distributor was driving distance so I didn't have to pay shipping.l

Wolfed, lyme docs do periodic blood tests to see if a patient's white blood cell count is still in the normal range.
If this count gets low, they will have you go on Transfer Factor. A low white count means you can't fight infection too well. They don't want that.
If the Transfer Factor doesn't raise the white count, you will have to stop meds until it goes up. (Like cancer patients doing chemo.)
I never had to stop meds because the TF worked so well for me.
This has nothing to do with the CD57 count. Check your blood work for white cell count. That is what we are talking about.
Transfer factor is bovine (cow's) colostrum (well, the brand I took was bovine). Colostrum gives the newborn all the immunities the mother has. That's what you are getting when you take it. That's why they want women to nurse newborns even for a short time. The colostrum is the first "milk" that comes out and gives the baby immunities.

Well I was wrong then. What I looked up said it was mushroom complex made of mostly shiitake's. Whats the deal? Is there different kinds of transfer factors?

There are different types of transfer factors. We buy ours from Research Nutritionals. It is for HHV6 and mycoplasms. Those are the two my daughter's LLMD wants her to take.
