What's happening to me???

Okay. The title is a bit misleading. I'm pretty sure that when you read the title, you'll be under the impression that something bad is happening to me and I have no idea what it is. In fact, good things are happening to me right now and I'm not entirely sure how. I have my suspicions, but like a good scientist (which I am not) would say, "No scientific evidence, it's all opinions". But heck, I don't care. As long as it's good.

You all know I've been taking 4Life TF Plus Advanced Formula for the last month or so. I thought before I move on to the compensation plan (Probably what all those who are interested in this business want to know more about), let me just tell you what I feel the product is doing to me (Once again, my opinion).

First of all, I get to sleep better at night. I used to lie awake in bed every night thinking about all my problems and my life (Someone who's BROKE like me has a lot of problems). I still think about my problems, but somehow, I get to sleep at night. Before I started taking 4Life TF Plus, I used to turn off the lights at 2.00 am hoping to get a good night sleep. Then I'd turn them on again half an hour later knowing that I wouldn't be able to sleep. I'd end up sleeping at 6.00 am or even 7.00 am and waking up at 1.00 or 2.00 in the afternoon feeling all tired and aching all over.

Well now, since taking 4Life TF Plus, I've been able to sleep better. At most, I'll fall asleep half an hour after I turn off the lights. No more switching them on again after that. In the morning, I feel much fresher, I feel like I'm more prepared to deal with my problems and that I'm thinking more clearly. I still have the same problems, but now I feel as if I'm more enthusiastic to face these problems and get them sorted out once and for all.

Another change that's happening to me is when I go for my weekend hill climbing trips at the Forest Reserve Institute of Malaysia here in Kuala Lumpur. There's 2 parts to the hill climbing track. The first section is a dirt track which has been cleared out. A car could easily pass through this track meaning although in some sections it's steep, it's not a difficult track to climb.

The second part is the challenge. It's the climb to the 1000 ft point. It's not a long climb. From the first section, the dirt track, it's only probably 400 ft, maybe less. But it's a very steep climb and it's a jungle track. I've only been up to the 1000 ft point 3 times. The first 2 times I was there, was way back in Spetember. It's not that I can't make it up there. It's just that every time I do, I'd end up with an aching body, especially my thighs and calves, for at least a couple of days.

The third time I went up there, I went with 2 of my friends Juliana and Alfie (The guy that took the photos). This at the end of December, 3 months after the last time I was up there. In fact, when i made the third climb, I had only been to on my weekend climb once since October. So I hadn't been doing any climbing for a more than 2 months.

By this time, I was already taking 4Life TF Plus. I had already taken it for 2 weeks. Since I hadn't been up there in a while, it was a struggle trying to get there. Juliana had some difficulty getting there too as she hadn't been to the gym in a while. We had to stop quite a number of times along the way. After we were done, all of us was pretty tired. I was expecting that I wouldn't be able to walk for at least 2 days which was more or less how I'd feel everytime I'd make the climb. So we all went home to rest.

I was shocked when I woke up the next day. I was all fine. I didn't have to struggle to get out of bed. My body felt fine, no aches at all. I could walk like I usually do, without any problems at all. Walking up and down stairs felt normal. I felt gooooodd.

I guess these are the two major improvements in my life after taking 4Life TF Plus. There might be other differences that I have yet to discover and I'm looking forward to finding out more about what 4Life TF Plus is doing to me. Some people might be sceptical about all this. But as for me, it's done a lot of good. I'm loving this.


P/s: Sorry I've had to recycle some of the photos. Running out of photos for this blog. Also my apologies because I have no photos of me sleeping.

Here we go....

Now that I've joined the business, I have to continue writing this blog. Don't really have much of a choice since this blog is supposed to help me promote the business. I guess the first thing that I should explain is, out of all the thousands of products out there, why did I chose 4Life Transfer Factors?

As I mentioned in an earlier post (Memory very bad right now. It was only a few posts ago and I already can't remember the title), I believe that for any multilevel marketing program to be successful, there are 3 key factors that you will have to consider. Product, rewards plan and support.
In any multilevel marketing program, the product is one of the most important factors which can determine the success of the program. Having a great rewards plan is good. But there's no point earning lots of money through the program if you can barely use the product. Eventually, those who join the program will stop buying the product and will leave the program.

So let's talk about the 4Life Transfer Factors product. What this product does is that it fortifies and balances your immune system (Mistake in earlier posting saying it boosts your immune system. My apologies). Your body's immune system is the number 1 defense against all kinds of health problems. When a bacteria or virus enters your body, the immune system will take action by attacking the bacteria or virus.

Having a balanced immune system is vital in being able to withstand most health problems. A weak immune system could lead to various infections and in some cases, cancer. But having an over active immune system would also lead to allergic reactions and in some severe cases, autoimmune problems.

So what does Transfer Factor do to fortify and balance your immune system. Well Transfer Factors provide your immune system with the knowledge and information required for the immune system to fight off various health problems. Our body already contains Transfer Factors which help our immune system fight off diseases. When the body is under attack from bacteria or viruses, transfer factor will identify the threat, i.e recognize the treat, respond towards the threat, then remember the nature of the threat and store this information for future reference.

What 4Life Transfer Factors does is to fortify the immune system. It provides the body with more Transfer Factors, which would then boost the ability of the body to fight off various diseases and health problems.

Another thing that 4Life Transfer Factors products does is it increases the effectiveness of Natural Killer cells (NK-Cells). NK-cells are a major component of the innate immune system. The innate immune system is the first line of defense in fighting against infections. In the body, the NK-cells play a major role in rejecting tumours and also cells infected by viruses. According to studies conducted in Japan, individuals with low NK-cell activity develop cancer at a faster rate compared to those with a higher NK-cell activity.

4Life Transfer Factors product increases the effectiveness of NK-cells. 4Life TF Plus Advanced Formula is 800% more more powerful in increasing the effectiveness of NK-cell compared to any other nutritional substance. It can increase the body's NK-cell effectiveness by a staggering 437%.

Now, I guess I've established the reason why I chose this product. 4Life Transfer Factors product is a scientific breakthrough. It balances and modulates your body immune system and it increases the effectiveness of the body's NK-cell effectiveness which targets tumour cells, cancer sells and infected cells. As I am a pretty heavy smoker, the effectiveness of NK-cells in my body is important as I have a higher risk of getting cancer. And since I have no plans to quit smoking soon, I guess i should beef up my body's defence against cancer while fortifying my immune system at the same time.

Finally....

As of today, I am officially a 4Life Transfer Factor distributor (I think that's what I'm called). I joined the 4Life business yesterday evening at 6.30 p.m. So as of the 6th January 2009, I've officially joined the 4Life Transfer Factor business.

Now that I've joined the business, let me tell you where my starting point is. I'm BROKE. As I have established earlier, I have no money. Hopefully, this business will help me alleviate this problem. Although I'm starting from a very helpless position (Starting any business requires capital), I do have high hopes for this business. I will do what I've always done before whenever I have had limited resources, use whatever resources that is available to me at that particular point.

Joining the business cost me RM 615.00, and for this amount of money, I got 3 bottles of 4Life TF Plus Advanced Formula and the "Compass Kit". As I mentioned before in an earlier post (Refer to "What I'm taking..."), the 4Life TF Plus Advanced Formula is one of the products that I'm already taking.

As for the "Compass Kit", it's a kit which comprises of a lot of information on the 4Life Transfer Factors product range and also on the business model. It comes complete with a product catalogue, brochures on the business and the lifestyle, the policies and procedures for the 4Life Transfer Factors business, the rewards plan and a step by step guide to succeed in the business. There a lot of other informational material contained in the "Compass Kit" which provides information about the products, the company and the business model. It also contains some video cds which I have yet to find out what they contain (Quite obvious I haven't gone through everything yet but I have opened the kit).

Now I have joined, I've got my "Compass Kit", I've got a couple of bottles of 4Life TF Plus Advanced Formula which I can distribute as samples to potential customers, I'm ready to start the business. But before I do that, Maybe I should attend a few meetings just to get to know more about the business and the products. There's one tonight which I guess I should attend. And now I think I should really start promoting this blog and the business.

Internet Marketing...

Internet Marketing or Network Marketing, took the concept of Multilevel Marketing one step further. Before the internet, the reach of multilevel marketing programs was limited to just your local area, or your state or in the case of a country as small as Malaysia, the entire country. Companies who wanted to venture on an international level would first have to establish an office in another country before recruiting their distributors.

Trying to make a sales or recruiting a new distributor involved a lot of hard work too. Distributors would have to do a lot of direct selling, door to door marketing and try to persuade the potential distributor to join the MLM program. That was the case when Amway started out back in the 70's. In fact, some of the direct selling practices are still being in use.


With the introduction of the internet MLM programs found it much easier to overcome the obstacles of direct selling. It became much easier to cross international borders. All these companies needed was a presence on the internet. Since venturing into internet marketing, a lot of distributors have found that they do not need to make direct sales. All they have to do is promote the product and the sales would be done through the internet.

Nowadays, to build a network marketing program is much easier. All that a company needs to launch a massive internet marketing campaign is to recruit some of the internets top network marketing specialists. These are people who are hugely successful in network marketing and have made millions from promoting other peoples product. Over the years, they have built huge networks consisiting of millions of people. Companies have found that this is the easiest and quickest way to promote a product on the internet.

So the biggest question here is can network marketing work for everyone? The simplest answer is it can. But it does involve a lot of work. Like any other merketing program, network marketing involves a lot of research, a lot of writing and also a lot of promoting. However, the beauty of network marketing is that you can do it from the comfort of your own home and at your own pace. You do not have to travel miles to get to an office at an unGodly hour. You do not have to sit idling in your car, while traveling at 5 mph through some of the worst traffic on the planet. And the most beautiful part of it, once everything is set up, it's all on autopilot. You don't have to do much work.

That's it for now...

I guess at this moment, that's all I can write about. I could probably write more about the effect taking Transfer Factors is having on me, but then it would just be my own personal experience. Personally, I don't think the effect Transfer Factors would have on me would be the same as it would have on other people. Different people react differently to anything they consume.

As for now, I'm quite happy taking Transfer Factors. I find that it's easier for me to sleep at night and trust me, that is a big thing for me. I used to have difficulty sleeping at night. I'd sometimes switch the lights of at around 2.00 in the morning and switch them on again a half hour later because I couldn't sleep.

I don't do that anymore. Nowadays, whenever I want to sleep at night, I lay down, and I'm out like the lights. Of course there are still nights that I stay up quite late. But then that's mainly because I want to and not because I can't sleep.

Another difference I've noticed since I've been taking 4Life Transfer Factors is that whenever I go on my weekend climbs, my body doesn't ache all over anymore. I still feel tired from the climb. Anybody would. But before taking Transfer Factors, my leg muscles would be sore for a few days and I'd have difficulty climbing down stairs.

Now, I'd just feel tired after the climb and maybe for the rest of the day. But the next morning, I'd be fine. In fact, last weekend, I went for the climb twice I went alone on Saturday and I went there again with a friend on Sunday. I was quite surprised I made it.

So far, I guess those are the noticeable effects Transfer Factors have had on me. I guess it does make a difference. I'm feeling much better than I've ever felt anytime during the last 4 years. I still don't know if it would have any other effects and I don't know if it will improve my health or not. But so far, it has done quite a good job in improving my life. Thanks to Juliana Idris for introducing 4Life Transfer Factors to me.

So that's about all I can write about for now. I'll be able to write more when I join the 4Life Transfer Factors business. I will also write if there are any other noticeable changes to my health, fitness or lifestyle while taking the 4Life Transfer Factors products. In the mean time, thanks for reading. See you back here again soon, I hope.

What I'm taking...

I've written down what I know so far about Transfer Factors. I didn't really write much as I'm no doctor, not a pharmacist either, nor am I an enthusiast. I'm just your regular average joe who's hoping that he can live a little bit longer than most other average joes. I think I'll know more once I join the business and have to explain it to potential downlines or clients.

Now that I've written what I know about Transfer Factors, it's time for me to tell you what I'm consuming. Once again, let me remind you, I haven't joined the business, so I really don't have much literature on it. Thus I don't really know much about it. All I know is that I'm taking 2 of 4life Transfer Factors products.

The first product I'm taking is 4Life's TF Advanced Formula (which is in the picture above). They come in the form of capsules and each bottle contains 60 capsules. Once you open the bottles, what you get is a creamy coloured powder inside the capsules like the picture below.

I could write about all the good things about 4Life TF Advanced Formula. But then I'd be repeating what is written down on 4Life's official website. So rather than waste my time rewriting what is already out there, here are some of the benfits of consuming 4Life's zTF Advanced Formula copied directly from their website:

• Promotes the immune system’s ability to remember past invasions, allowing your body to more quickly respond to similar health threats
• Educates naive immune cells about a present or potential danger in your body along with a plan for action
• Speeds up the recognition phase of an infection, making the duration of an illness shorter
• Boosts your immune response, or balances it by suppressing an overactive immune system

The second product I'm taking is the 4Life's TF Advanced Formula Plus. Like the Advanced Formula, it comes in a bottle consisting of 60 capsules too (Similar to the one pictured above). The powder inside the capsules are slightly darker as pictured below. More like a greyish color. And like above, I'm just going to copy directly from 4Life's website the benefits of TF Advanced Factor Plus which are:

• Maitake and Shiitake Mushrooms—long known to promote T-Cell (immune system) function and other healing properties.

• Cordyceps—rich in polysaccharides, which help activate immune system response.
• Inositol Hexaphosphate—gaining attention for its preventative immune power.
• Beta Glucans—an important immune cell stimulator. They are the “wake-up” call to white blood cells.
• Beta Sitosterol—a phytosterol that has been shown to help activate immune system response.
• Olive Leaf Extract—may be instrumental in slowing the duplication of infectious cells

Now I guess you must be wondering whether both of these products work. That's for another post. I can't really say for certain whether they work or not at the moment as I've only been consuming them for just over a couple of weeks. And the problem I have now is that I'm running out. Since I'm broke, I can't really jin the business or buy the products. Looks like I might have to rely on my good friend Juliana Idris again for some free samples.

P/s: I might have uploaded the wrong photo for 4Life's TF Advanced Formula Plus. It looks more creamy than greyish.

Do I even know what transfer factors are?

I believe Transfer Factor is, without a doubt, the greatest discovery of the century in supporting and modulating the immune system. I believe a strengthened immune system will be the primary way to stay well in the future. This nutrient can affect the immune system like nothing else can. I sincerely believe everyone should consume this product."
Rob Robertson, M.D

Before I start talking about 4life Transfer Factors products, I guess I should answer the main question first. Do I even know what they are? I guess the only way both you and I will know whether I know what I'm talking about is to write something about Transfer Factors (This is a blog anyway) and from there we'll both find out if I know what I'm talking about (Sorry, that sentence is a bit long and made too many turns. I might have lost some of you along the way).

As far as I can understand it, Transfer Factors are molecules which are part of the human body's immune system. The immune system consists of smart cells or smart molecules which enables the body to fight off diseases and also allergies. Transfer Factors represents one of the classes of smart molecules. The human body has millions of these Transfer Factors coursing through our body.

Transfer Factor molecules are very unique. First of all, they store information about diseases r allergies which have been contracted by the body. For example, if you've had chicken pox as a child, you will not get chicken pox again, The reason why you don't get it again is because Transfer Factors in your immune system will remember the germ and also remember how to fight it off.

The second reason why it's a unique molecule is that it is transferrable. A breastfeeding mother not only transfers essential nutrients to a baby while breastfeeding, she also provides the child with Transfer Factors which helps the child's body to strengthen the immune system.

Another reason why Transfer Factors are unique is that it's not spesies specific. Transfer Factors from any species can be transferred to the human body to strengthen the immune system.

That's more or less what I know about Transfer Factors at the moment. I haven't exactly made an in depth study about it as most of the research material I have is quite technical (Takes a while to understand). Btu what I do know is that the more Transfer Factors you have streaming through your body, the better. It helps to strengthen your immune system and that is a good thing. A very very good thing.

"Harnessing the potential of transfer factors represents the greatest leap forward in the history of nutritional science. Targeting transfer factors opens a complete new dimension in technological advancement in health and nutrition. Never before in the history of Network Marketing has there been a product introduced into this industry that has such vast supporting science, studied by such a diverse group of researchers that were without commercial interest." David Markowitz, M.D.

More about me....

Just a little bit more about me. Be patient. I'll start writing about the products and the business real soon. Once I've joined of course. To be honest with, I haven't joined the 4life Transfer Factors business yet. The reason being, it costs RM 600.00 ringgit to join and at the moment, I'm BROKE (Notice how I typed that in caps. That's how serious the situation is).

At this particular moment, I have around RM 200.00 in cash, another RM 8.00 in my Maybank account, about RM 30.00 in my Ambank account and another RM 10.00 in my Bank Islam account (which I hardly use anymore). So, RM 248.00 is the total cash balance that I have now.

Apart from that, I'm 4 months behind on my car repayments, I'm also 2 months outstanding bill on my electricity bill, 4 months outstanding on my maintenance bill and 6 months outstanding on my house internet bill. Isn't life peachy. And to top all that, my car is also falling apart due to lack of regular maintenance. So that's the situation I'm in now.

I guess some people would be wondering how I got this way. It all started 4 years ago when I got retrenched from my last full time job. Times were pretty bad then and I couldn't get myself another job. So, I decided to work freelance while waiting for something a bit more permanent.

At first, freelancing wasn't too bad. I was able to get by, no outstanding bills or car repayments. It wasn't great. I wasn't going to get rich out of it, but I wasn't sleeping under a bridge somewhere. Then at the beginning of 2008, things didn't go to well. I was expecting to be offered a full time job at the beginning of the year and had already started turning down some of my regular clients. When I didn't get the job offer, I didn't have any jobs lined. I had to go out there and start freelancing again.

This was when I decided to give internet marketing a try. I stuck with it for 2 months, spending my savings to survive, and when that didn't work out, things got really bad. My savings were gone and I didn't have any job prospects for 4 months. When you add the fact that one of my clients from a freelancing job I did back then didn't pay me (he's been delaying paying me for 8 months now), things were going to get from bad to worse.

So there I was, no job, no future job potential, no savings, and a bunch of outstanding bills to pay. It took me until July to get another freelancing job offer which lasted until September (That helped a lot to cover some of the outstanding bills), then after that I started to help my uncle with one of his projects in which he would pay me from time to time.

I'm still helping out my uncle with his projects, but the payment is not very frequent so I've started to pile up the bills again. So this is where I am now. BROKE and trying to raise the money to start the 4life Transfer Factors business. Let's see how far I get this time.

Why I decided to start...

I first heard about Transfer Factors quite a while ago when I was exploring the internet trying to venture into internet marketing. That was about 8 months ago and my internet marketing venture never took off. It started well, but then dwindled for a couple of months and then completely died about 2 months later.

After going through the experience of watching something I spent months trying to build go down the drain, I wasn't that keen on starting anything new. But then my friend, Juliana Idris introduced me to Transfer Factors about three weeks ago. She was very passionate about Transfer Factors, promoting it on every social networking site she has joined. She was also very persistent, so I agreed to give it a try.

You see, Juliana has known me for well over a year. When we first met, my weight was about 78 kilos. The first few months of knowing her, I didn't really have any health problems. But when I started to venture into internet marketing 8 months ago, I started to lose weight, rapidly. Within the space of a couple of months, I lost about 8 kilos. I continued to lose weight. About 2 months ago, my weight dropped to 68 kilos.

Now under any other circumstances, I'd be very happy at losing all that weight. The last time I was 68 kilos was when I left high school. But now, 20 years later, I'm back to that weight. To cut the story short, one day, my dad bought this portable tester that can check the sugar level in your blood. Since I was losing all this weight, he asked me to give it a try and check my sugar level. The result was I had a reading of 22.8. Normal would be below 7.0.


So I had a very high sugar level in my blood. Time to cut down on the sweets. Cutting down on my sugar intake was pretty easy. Together with prescribed medication, I managed to bring my sugar level to 6.9. So as long as I didn't increase my sugar intake, I should be fine. But then I started wondering, how much longer am I going to have to drink bitter coffee?

When Juliana told me about Transfer Factors and its ability to control diabetes. I thought I'll give it a try. The product she gave me was 4life Transfer Factors. I've been taking them for about 2 weeks now and next week, I'm going to check my sugar level again. Hope for the best.

The first two photos of me were taken over a year ago. I weighed 78 kg then. The last two, which is of me and my niece were taken quite recently. The first being a few weeks ago and the other a couple of months ago. By then I had already lost 10 kilos. I lost all this weight due to the high sugar level in my blood. Time to put a stop to that.
