Bottomline analysis
Nutrition-wise, both products are good sources of amino acids. Since both are protein-based, our body needs them, sick or not. However, assuming it works effectively for antiaging (for Laminine) or the immune system (4 Life) cannot be determined as insufficient documents support either claim.
Most clinical studies cited are generic or pertain specifically to a small number of participants, which could not be verified. Although Laminine has a nod from Physician’s Desk Reference (PDR), its edge would be cell repair and its effects on reducing stress and sugar.
On the other hand, Transfer Factor’s advantage would be for those devoid of nutrition. However, an expensive alternative, colostrum, is an effective way to feed the body. But if the person cannot even chew food, this is recommended. These nutritional supplements help the body recover naturally without using drugs.
