From Unexpected Tip to Conscious Choice

Hester came into contact with 4Life through a former colleague she hadn’t spoken to in 25 years. That colleague thought it might “suit her well.” The comment struck a chord. She decided to dive into the products and the company behind them.
What she discovered pleasantly surprised her: Transfer Factors, based on scientific research into the immune system, aligned perfectly with her interest in preventive health. As she learned more about the scientific foundation and mission of 4Life, her trust grew — not just in the products themselves, but also in the company.

Experience It Yourself = Believe It Yourself

Given her background, Hester knows how important it is to experience a product personally before drawing conclusions. So she and her son started using Transfer Factors.
She noticed subtle effects in herself (Hester is fortunately already very healthy), but something remarkable happened with her son.
Her son suffers from food intolerances, including a reaction to eggs. To her surprise, after a few weeks of using Transfer Factors, he could tolerate eggs again with minimal symptoms. This was a significant improvement — especially surprising because in the past, eggs had made him seriously ill.
Since nothing else had changed in his lifestyle or diet, the conclusion was clear: the Transfer Factors from 4Life were actively contributing to an improvement in her son’s food intolerance.

“As a mother, you just see and feel that something is changing." "I don’t need a double-blind study for that.”

Critical and Curious

During my conversation with Hester, we also discussed the fact that 4Life conducts much of the research into Transfer Factors itself.
While some might view this as a conflict of interest, she sees it as a sign of commitment: a company willing to invest in research itself shows that it truly believes in its products — and I completely agree with her.
She’s convinced that external, independent studies will follow — especially as the products are still relatively new in Europe.

“But I believe in my own experience and in those of the people around me." "That’s valuable enough already.”

Practical Use and Sharing Experiences

Hester isn’t actively selling the products, but she does share her experiences within her network.
If someone is struggling with recurring health complaints or immune-related issues, she tells them about the positive effects Transfer Factors have had — like what happened with her son, for which she’s incredibly grateful.
She emphasizes that every body is different and responds differently.

“It’s not a magic pill, but it’s an immune-supporting supplement." "And sometimes, that’s exactly what someone needs.”

Pioneering in a Growing Community

What also motivates her is the community behind 4Life.
The Dutch group currently consists of around 40 people — and it’s growing quickly. What touches her is the openness and positive atmosphere. People share stories, knowledge, and inspiration with each other — without judgment or competition.

“At first, I was hesitant to talk to others about health (and supplements)." "Now, it actually gives me energy." "It’s helped me grow socially too, which I’m really happy about.”

Conclusion

Hester van de Roer shows that, as a professional, you can be both critical and open to new developments in the world of health.
Her story proves that personal experience, scientific curiosity, and trust can go hand in hand.
For her, 4Life isn’t a hype or a marketing trick — but an extension of her vision on health, lifestyle, and natural support.
And perhaps even more importantly: a low-barrier way to introduce others to a powerful supplement.
