STEM CELL THERAPY

The major purpose for stem cell therapy is to cure disease. Given the flexibility and potential of stem cells, the number of diseases that could potentially be treated with stem cell therapy is large.

What is it?
StemEnhance is a breakthrough, natural botanical extract that supports wellness by helping your body maintain healthy stem cell physiology.  It is the very first product on the market from the latest phytoceutical product category called “stem cell enhancers”.

What are stem cell enhancers?
Recent scientific developments have revealed that stem cells derived from the bone marrow, travel throughout the body, and act to support optimal organ and tissue function.  Stem cell enhancers are products that support the natural role of adult stem cells.

Why do I need this product?
As you age, the number and quality of stem cells that circulate in your body gradually decrease, leaving your body more susceptible to injury and other age-related health challenges. 

Just as antioxidants are important to protect your cells from “free radical” damage, stem cell enhancers are equally important to support your stem cells in maintaining proper organ and tissue functioning in your body.

A common way of thinking about stem cell therapy is that if an organ is failing then injection of stem cells into that organ could contribute to repair.  This rationale has been used to try to improve patients with Parkinson’s disease.  Where this method may be failing is that it disregards a multi-factorial cause of Parkinson’s. The development of complex diseases such as Parkinson’s is not simply explained by a failure of stem cells to reach a lesion in the brain.  The lesion came about because of a series of events, including inflammation and genetic predisposition. Similar arguments can be raised for Alzheimer’s, diabetes, heart disease, and many other conditions. 

One interesting bias in the current scientific thinking relates to the perceived need to remove stem cells from the patient and re-inject the cells into a diseased area.  Researchers are just beginning to think more in terms of how to boost the natural process of stem cell biology in the broadest sense: from production and release of stem cells into the blood circulation, to maintaining a lowered state of inflammation, and increasing their ability to move into tissues that are in need of repair. 

Stem cell therapy has certainly seen some success stories. However, until stem cell therapy includes underlying inflammatory conditions, this success may be limited.  The next year should see an explosion of new data on these topics.
