Adult Stem Cell Physiology
Supporting Bone Marrow Adult Stem Cell Release Naturally
to Stimulate Healing in Humans and Animals
Scientific developments have revealed that adult stem cells derived
from the bone marrow, travel throughout the body, and act to support optimal
organ and tissue function. 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 Nutrition from aqua-botanical extract are
equally important to support stem cells in maintaining proper organ and
tissue functioning in the body. Stem Cell Enhancers have shown to trigger
the release of millions of adult stem cells from the bone marrow very quickly.
These stem cells can then migrate and attach to any cells, tissue, bone,
muscle, cartilage, organ...anywhere in the body needing repair. Once they
attach, they become that tissue and multiply 3 to 5000 times.

- Helping Your Body Heal Itself
Stem
Cell Enhancers, from aqua-botanical extract, have
shown to trigger the release of millions of stem cells from the bone marrow
very quickly. These stem cells can then migrate and attach to any cells,
tissue, bone, muscle, cartilage, organ anywhere in the body needing repair.
Once they attach, they become that tissue and multiply 3 to 5000 times.
When there is an injury or a stress to an organ, compounds are released
that reach the bone marrow and trigger the release of stem cells. Stem
Cells can be thought of as “master” cells. Stem cells circulate and
function to replace dysfunctional cells, thus fulfilling the natural process
of maintaining optimal health
When Christian Drapeau first posited that Adult Stem Cells were the
very foundation of the body's natural healing system, scientific study
in the field was in its infancy. His hypothesis that Adult Stem Cells,
created by bone marrow, flowed to any tissue or organ needing regeneration
and morphed into healthy cells of that location, was initially ridiculed
by medical science. Since 2006 however, and at a geometrically increasing
pace, Christian Drapeau's position gained not just momentum but widespread
interest in scientific circles as study after study reveals that Adult
Stem Cell science holds phenomenal promise in all areas of human healing.
The release of stem cells from the bone marrow after consumption of
Nutritional
Stem Cell Enhancers has been clearly evidenced by more than 150 experiments,
and such effect has been clearly demonstrated in a double-blind study that
has been submitted for publication and shall be published soon. The health
benefits of having more stem cells in the blood circulation have been demonstrated
by numerous scientific studies. It would be too long here to summarize
this vast body of scientific data. I simply suggest you research the work
of Dr. Donald Orlic at the NIH.
Christian's theory that Adult Stem Cells are nothing less than the human
body's natural healing system has profound implications for every area
of modern medicine. The idea that heart disease, diabetes, liver degeneration,
and other conditions could be things of the past is no longer science fiction;
because of recent Adult Stem Cell research breakthroughs, these are real
possibilities in the short term. Christian
Drapeau is America's best known advocate for Adult Stem Cell science health
applications and the founder of the field of Stem Cell Nutrition. He holds

in Neurology and Neurosurgery from the Montreal Neurological Institute.
Stem cells are defined as cells with the unique capacity to self-replicate
throughout the entire life of an organism and to differentiate into cells
of various tissues. Most cells of the body are specialized and play a well-defined
role in the body. For example, brain cells respond to electrical signals
from other brain cells and release neurotransmitters; cells of the retina
are activated by light, and pancreatic ß-cells produce insulin. These
cells, called somatic cells, will never differentiate into other types
of cells or even proliferate. By contrast, stem cells are primitive cells
that remain undifferentiated until they receive a signal prompting them
to become various types of specialized cells.
The Stem Cell Theory of Renewal The Stem Cell Theory of Renewal proposes that stem cells are naturally
released by the bone marrow and travel via the bloodstream toward tissues
to promote the body’s natural process of renewal. When an organ is subjected
to a process that requires renewal, such as the natural aging process,
this organ releases compounds that trigger the release of stem cells from
the bone marrow. The organ also releases compounds that attracts stem cells
to this organ. The released stem cells then follow the concentration gradient
of these compounds and leave the blood circulation to migrate to the organ
where they proliferate and differentiate into cells of this organ, supporting
the natural process of renewal.
Most of the cells in the human body are specialists assigned to a specific
organ or type of tissue, such as the neuronal cells that wire the brain
and central nervous system. Stem cells are different. When they divide,
they can produce either more stem cells, or they can serve as progenitors
that differentiate into specialized cells as they mature. Hence the name,
because specialist cells can "stem" from them. The potential to differentiate
into specialist cells whose populations in the body have become critically
depleted as the result of illness or injury is what makes stem cells so
potentially valuable to medical research. The idea is that if the fate
of a batch of stem cells could be directed down specific pathways, they
could be grown, harvested, and then transplanted into a problem area. If
all went according to plan, these new cells would overcome damaged or diseased
cells, leading to healing and recovery. "The life of a stem cell can be
viewed as a hierarchical branching process, where the cell is faced with
a series of fate switches," Schaffer says. "Our goal is to identify the
cell fate switches, and then provide stem cells with the proper signals
to guide them down a particular developmental trajectory."
Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop
into many different cell types in the body. Serving as a sort of repair
system for the body, they can theoretically divide without limit to replenish
other cells as long as the person or animal is still alive. When a stem
cell divides, each new cell has the potential to either remain a stem cell
or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as
a muscle cell, a red blood cell, or a brain cell.
When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the
potential to either remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with
a more specialised function. Scientists believe it should be possible to
harness this ability to turn stem cells into a super "repair kit" for the
body. Theoretically, it should be possible to use stem cells to generate
healthy tissue to replace that either damaged by trauma, or compromised
by disease. Among the conditions which scientists believe may eventually
be treated by stem cell therapy are Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's
disease, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, diabetes,
burns and spinal cord damage. The
Stem Cell Theory of Renewal: Demystifying the Most Dramatic Scientific
Breakthrough of Our Time
The National Health Institute lists seventy-four treatable diseases
using ASCs in therapy - an invasive and costly procedure of removing the
stem cells from one’s bone marrow (or a donor’s bone marrow) and re-injecting
these same cells into an area undergoing treatment. For example, this procedure
is sometimes done before a cancer patient undergoes radiation. Healthy
stem cells from the bone marrow are removed and stored, only to be re-inserted
after radiation into the area of the body in need of repair. This is a
complex and expensive procedure, not accessible to the average person.
However, there is now a way that every single person, no matter what their
health condition, can have access to the benefits of enhancing their body’s
innate ability to repair every organ and tissue using stem cell nutrition. Stem
Cell Nutrition video
Stem Cell Nutritional Enhancers are a blend of
two compounds extracted from the aquatic botanicalAphanizomenon
Flos-Aquae (AFA). One extract, which contains an L-selectin ligand,
supports the release of stem cells (CD34+ cells) from the bone marrow.
The other extract, a polysaccharide-rich fraction named Migratose, may
support the migration of stem cells out of the blood into tissues.

David A. Prentice, Ph.D. - "Within just
a few years, the possibility that the human body contains cells that can
repair and regenerate damaged and diseased tissue has gone from an unlikely
proposition to a virtual certainty. Adult stem cells have been isolated
from numerous adult tissues, umbilical cord, and other non-embryonic
sources, and have demonstrated a surprising ability for transformation
into other tissue and cell types and for repair of damaged tissues. This
paper will examine the published literature regarding the identity
of adult stem cells and possible mechanisms for their observed differentiation
into tissue types other than their tissue of origin. Reported data from
both human and animal studies will be presented on the various tissue sources
of adult stem cells and the differentiation and repair abilities for each
source, especially with regards to current and potential therapeutic treatments."
Adult
Stem Cells by David A. Prentice, Ph.D.
A group, led by Paul Frenette, Associate Professor of Medicine at Mount
Sinai School of Medicine, found that the sympathetic—or “fight or flight”
branch—of the nervous system plays a critical role in coaxing bone marrow
stem cells into the bloodstream. Bone marrow cells known ashematopoietic
stem cells are the source for blood and immune cells. In normal individuals,
the continuous trafficking of the stem cells between the bone marrow and
blood fills empty or damaged niches and contributes to the maintenance
of normal blood cell formation, according to the researchers.
A new U.S. study involving mice suggests the brain's own stem cells
may have the ability to restore memory after an injury. These neural stem
cells work by protecting existing cells and promoting neuronal connections.
In their experiments, a team at the University of California, Irvine, were
able to bring the rodents' memory back to healthy levels up to three months
after treatment. The finding could open new doors for treatment of brain
injury, stroke and dementia, experts say.
"This is one of the first reports that you can take a stem cell transplantation
approach and restore memory," said lead researcher Mathew Blurton-Jones,
a postdoctorate fellow at the university. "There is a lot of awareness
that stem cells might be useful in treating diseases that cause loss of
motor function, but this study shows that they might benefit memory in
stroke or traumatic brain injury, and potentially Alzheimer's disease."
In the study, published in the Oct. 31 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience,
Blurton-Jones and his colleagues used genetically engineered mice that
naturally develop brain lesions. The researchers destroyed cells in a brain
area called the hippocampus. These cells are known to be vital to memory
formation and it is in this region that neurons often die after injury,
the researchers explained. To test the mice's memory, Blurton-Jones's group
conducted place and object recognition tests with both healthy mice and
brain-injured mice.
Healthy mice remembered their surroundings about 70 percent of the time,
while brain-injured mice remembered it only 40 percent of the time. For
objects, healthy mice recalled objects about 80 percent of the time, but
injured mice remembered them only 65 percent of the time. The researchers
then injected each mouse with about 200,000 neural stem cells. They found
that mice with brain injuries that received the stem cells now remembered
their surroundings about 70 percent of the time -- the same as healthy
mice. However, mice that didn't receive stem cells still had memory deficits.
The researchers also found that in healthy mice injected with stem cells,
the stem cells traveled throughout the brain. In contrast, stem cells given
to injured mice lingered in the hippocampus. Only about 4 percent of those
stem cells became neurons, indicating that the stem cells were repairing
existing cells to improve memory, rather than replacing the dead brain
cells, Blurton-Jones's team noted. The researchers are presently doing
another study with mice stricken with Alzheimer's. "The initial results
are promising," Blurton-Jones said. "This has a huge potential, but we
have to be cautious about not rushing into the clinic too early."
One expert is optimistic about the findings. "Putting in these stem
cells could eventually help in age-related memory decline," said Dr. Paul
R. Sanberg, director of the Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair
at the University of South Florida College of Medicine. "There is clearly a
therapeutic potential to this." Sanberg noted that for the process to work
with Alzheimer's it has to work with older brains. "There is clearly therapeutic
potential in humans, but there are a lot of hurdles to overcome," he said.
"This is another demonstration of the potential for neural stem cells in
brain disorders."

" I've always been interested in health generally and in particular the
brain, focusing on the balance of neurotransmitters. I often do quantitative
EEG's for assessment of my patients. I'm impressed with the concept of
a natural product like stem cell nutrition that could help release adult
stem cells from the bone mass where the body would have no objection and
no rejection. I've tried stem
cell nutrition for general health anti-aging. After taking it for a time,
I fell more agile and my joints are far more flexible. I was astounded
while doing yoga that I was suddenly able to bend over and touch my forehead
to my knees. I haven’t been able to do that comfortably in probably twenty
years. I noticed how much better my balance has become. I believe stem
cell nutrition is responsible for these effects, because I certainly
haven't been trained extensively in yoga. Also since taking stem cell nutrition,
I feel better and my skin is more moist and has a finer texture.
A bald friend of mine, who
is also taking the stem cell nutrition, had several small cancers on top
of his head. His doctor had removed one from his arm already, and his dermatologist
set a date to remove those from his scalp. Before the appointment, my friend
was shaving one morning and, looking in the mirror, saw that the cancers
were all gone. They had disappeared within a few weeks of starting the
stem cell nutrition and his skin is better overall. Also, his knee, which
he’d strained playing tennis, was like new. Stem cell nutrition seems to
go where the body's priority is. You never know what the affect is going
to be, but you notice something is changing. Another friend of mine seems
to be dropping years. Her skin looks smoother and her face younger. After
about six weeks on the stem cell nutrition, she looks like she’s ten years
younger. A woman who gives her regular facials asked what she was doing,
because her skin looked so much different. Stem cell nutrition is remarkable
and could help anybody. Everybody should try it, because it’s natural and
there are no risks. As we grow older in years, we still can have good health.
That’s the ideal. Even if you don’t currently have a problem, stem cell
nutrition is a preventative." Dr. White holds

Dr. Cliff Minter
- "Stem cells are the most powerful cells in the body. We know that stem
cells, once they're circulating in the bloodstream, will travel to any
area of the body that has been compromised or damaged and turn into healthy
cells. There have been controversial discussions about the new stem cells
found in embryos, but the truth is that everyone has adult stem cells in
their own bodies. We are all created from stem cells. As a child or a young
adult, your body automatically releases stem cells whenever you injure
yourself. That's why you heal so fast when you are younger. After about
age 35, we don't heal as fast anymore, because the stem cells aren't released
the same way as when we are younger. Stem cell nutrition helps all of us
heal our bodies. If you look at the New England Journal of Medicine, you'll
find that the number one indicator of a healthy heart is the number of
stem cells circulating in the body. Stem cell nutrition is the organic
and all-natural way to stimulate the bone marrow to release adult stem
cells into the bloodstream.
By taking stem cell nutrition,
you can maintain optimum health and aid your body in healing itself. It's
certainly a better way to recuperate from an illness than using prescription
drugs, because even when a medication works, it can often be hard on your
liver and the rest of your body. Stem cell nutrition has no negative side
effects. This makes it a powerful approach to healing and good health in
general. I found out about stem cell nutrition after someone asked for
my opinion on it. I did some research and found it to be one of the greatest
ways to slow down aging that we have. Aging is nothing more than the breakdown
of cells. Stem cell nutrition combats that action. As cells break down,
stem cell nutrition replaces them with healthy cells. This is the greatest,
most natural anti-aging method I know. I was skeptical at first, but the
results I’ve personally seen in people I’ve talked with have been wide-ranged.
Lots of people have reported an increase in energy and better sleeping
patterns.
I've seen people with arthritis
in various parts of their bodies reverse the disease, and people with asthma
end up with their lungs totally clear. One person that was on oxygen almost
24/7 is now totally off of oxygen. Two ladies who suffered badly from PMS
told me they were 100 percent symptom-free within weeks of starting the
stem cell nutrition. Two people I know had “tennis elbow” which usually
takes about six to nine months to heal. Within weeks of taking stem cell
nutrition, both report their "tennis elbow" is gone. It makes sense, because
stem cells go to whatever area is compromised and turn into healthy cells.
I use stem cell nutrition
as a preventative. I've noticed an increase in my energy level and an improved
sleeping pattern. Stem cell nutrition has zero negative side effects, is
very powerful, and we know how it works. It's good for children as well
as adults. This is the best, most natural way I know to optimum health.
If you just want to use it for prevention, this is the best thing I know
for staying healthy. And if you do have health challenges, it's the best
way I know of overcoming those and regaining optimum health. I recommend
it to everybody." Dr. Cliff Minter (retired)

Fernando Aguila, M.D.
- "Due to a heavy patient load, I have recently found that I tire more
easily, my legs are cramping, and by the time I get home, even my shoulders
and rib cage hurt. I knew I had to find a way to increase my stamina, energy
and vitality. A friend gave me information about stem cell nutrition and
how it promotes the release of stem cells in the body. One of the components
apparently promotes the migration of the stem cells to tissues or organs
where regeneration and repair is needed most. My attention was drawn to
the fact that it can increase energy, vitality, wellness, concentration,
and much more. It sounded just like what I needed. Since then, I've heard
testimonials from others who have experienced significant improvement in
their painful arthritis. They claimed the paint had became almost negligible.
I heard about patients who regulated their diabetes, blood pressure, and
had improvements in cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, and even
myocardial infarctions. The improvements sounded dramatic. Because of all
of their testimonies, I was willing to believe it could promote wellness
in the human body.
I tried stem cell nutrition
myself. After a day, of hard work, I realized I wasn't tired at all, my
legs were not aching, and I didn't have any shoulder pain. I decided the
stem cell nutrition must be working. I continued to take it, and was able
to work so efficiently and steadily that one surgeon commented that I was
moving like a ball of fire. Stem cell nutrition gives me support physically
and mentally. I look forward to seeing what the major medical journals
have to say about the studies being done with this new approach to wellness."

The effect of Stem Cell Nutritional Enhancers on
stem cells was tested in a triple-blind study. In brief, volunteers rested
for one hour before the first blood sample, which established the baseline
level in the number of circulating stem cells. After the first blood samples,
volunteers were given Stem Cell nutritional Enhancers or placebo. Thereafter,
blood samples were taken at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after taking the consumables.
The number of circulating stem cells was quantified by analyzing the blood
samples using Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS). Consumption of
Stem Cell nutritional Enhancers triggered a significant 25% increase in
the number of circulating stem cells. One gram of Stem Cell nutritional Enhancers
triggers a significant 25-35% increase in the number of circulating stem
cells. The effect lasts for a few hours. The recommended dosage is therefore
2 capsules once or twice day, at least 6 hours apart.

Stem Cell Nutritional Enhancers contains a polysaccharide
fraction that was shown to stimulate the migration of Natural
Killer (NK) cells out of the blood into tissues. The same polysaccharide
fraction was also shown to strongly stimulate the activation of NK cells.
NK cells play the very important role in the body of identifying aberrant
or defective cells and eliminating them. NK cells are especially known
for their ability to detect and destroy virally infected cells and cells
undergoing uncontrolled cellular division. The same polysaccharide fraction
was also shown to stimulate macrophage
activity. Macrophages constitute the front line of the immune system. They
first detect an infection or the presence of bacteria or virally infected
cells, and they then call for a full immune response. Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" also contains a significant concentration of chlorophyll
and phycocyanin, the blue pigment in AFA. Phycocyanin
has strong anti-inflammatory properties and therefore can assist the immune
system.
The release of stem cells from the bone marrow and their migration to
tissues is a natural process that happens everyday. Stem
Cell Nutritional Enhancers simply supports that natural process and
tips the balance toward health everyday. It does not do anything that the
body does not already do everyday. So far, no instances of cancer or any
similar problem have ever been observed when using in vivo natural release
of stem cells from the bone marrow.
Each day, stem cells in the bone marrow evolve to produce red blood
cells, white blood cells, and platelets. These mature cells are then released
into the bloodstream where they perform their vital life-supporting functions.
When bone marrow stem cell activity is interfered with, diseases such as
anemia (red blood cell deficit), neutropenia (specialized white blood cell
deficit), or thrombocytopenia (platelet deficit) are often diagnosed. Any
one of these conditions can cause death if not corrected.
Scientists have long known that folic acid, vitamin B12, and iron are
required for bone marrow stem cells to differentiate into mature red blood
cells.3-7 Vitamin D has been shown to be crucial in the formation of immune
cells,8-11 whereas carnosine has demonstrated a remarkable ability to rejuvenate
cells approaching senescence and extend cellular life span.12-28
Other studies of foods such as blueberries show this fruit can prevent
and even reverse cell functions that decline as a result of normal aging.29-36
Blueberry extract has been shown to increase neurogenesis in the aged rat
brain.37,38 Green tea compounds have been shown to inhibit the growth of
tumor cells, while possibly providing protection against normal cellular
aging.39,40
Based on these findings, scientists are now speculating that certain
nutrients could play important roles in maintaining the healthy renewal
of replacement stem cells in the brain, blood, and other tissues. It may
be possible, according to these scientists, to use certain nutrient combinations
in the treatment of conditions that warrant stem cell replacement
These studies demonstrate for the first time that various natural compounds
can promote the proliferation of human bone marrow cells and human stem
cells. While these studies were done in vitro, they provide evidence that
readily available nutrients may confer a protective effect against today’s
epidemic of age-related bone marrow degeneration.
Dr. Robert Sampson, MD
on stem cell nutrition - "... we have a product that has been shown and
demonstrated in the patent to increase the level of adult circulating stem
cells by up to 30%. It seems to me we're having a great opportunity here
to optimize the body's natural ability to create health."
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. Nutritional Stem Cell
"Enhancers"
are products that support the natural role of adult stem
cells. Stem Cell Enhancers derived from a phytoceutical product”.
The human brain consists of an estimated 10 trillion individual neurons
or nerve cells, each intricately interconnected with thousands of its neighbours
via tendril-like projections called dendrites. The basic circuitry of the
central nervous system - the brain and the spinal cord - is already in
place when we are born. For most of this century, scientists believed that
the number of neurons in the central nervous system is essentially fixed
at birth, and that neurons are not renewed or replaced in an individual's
lifetime. Folk wisdom tells us our brains begin to die from the moment
we are born - we begin to lose neurons in our late teens, and the rate
of loss accelerates as we age. It is now clear that both scientific and
folk wisdom were wrong. In the early 1990s, a team led by Dr Bartlett at
the Hall Institute made a seminal discovery: the mammalian brain is not
static, but possesses a self-renewing population of neuronal stem cells
capable of dividing and forming new neurons. The most exciting implication
of their discovery is that it might one day be possible to repair brains
damaged by stroke, or by degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's
disease, motor neuron disease or Parkinson's disease
The possibility that a decline in the numbers or plasticity of stem
cell populations contributes to aging and age-related disease is suggested
by recent findings. The remarkable plasticity of stem cells suggests that
endogenous or transplanted stem cells can be ‘tweaked’ in ways that will
allow them to replace lost or dysfunctional cell populations in diseases
ranging from neurodegenerative and hematopoietic disorders to diabetes
and cardiovascular disease.
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 Nutritional
Enhancers are equally important to support your stem cells in maintaining
proper organ and tissue functioning in your body.
When you take two capsules of the Stem Cell Enhancers product, the ingredients
help to support the release of stem cells from the bone marrow into the
bloodstream. Through a natural process, those stem cells then travel
to areas of the body where they are most needed. Effectiveness of th Stem
Cell Enhancers was demonstrated in a triple-blind study. Volunteers rested
for one hour before establishing baseline levels. After the first blood
samples, volunteers were given Stem Cell Nutritional Enhancers
or placebo. Thereafter, blood samples were taken at 30, 60 and 120 minutes
after taking the consumables. The number of circulating stem cells was
quantified by analyzing the blood samples using Fluorescence-Activated
Cell Sorting (FACS). Consumption of Stem Cell Enhancers triggered a significant
25-30% increase in the number of circulating stem cells. Recommended dose
One gram of Stem Cell Enhancers triggers an average 25-30% increase in
the number of circulating stem cells. The effect lasts for a few hours.
The recommended dosage is therefore 2 capsules once or twice day, at least
6 hours apart.
A fundamental breakthrough in our understanding of nervous system development
was the identification of multipotent neural stem cells (neurospheres)
about ten years ago. Dr. Weiss and colleagues showed that EGF (epidermal
growth factor) dependent stem cells could be harvested from different brain
regions at different developmental stages and that these could be maintained
over multiple passages in vitro. This initial finding has lead to an explosion
of research on stem cells, their role in normal development and their potential
therapeutic uses. Many investigators have entered this field and the progress
made has been astounding.
Stem Cell Enhancers, from aqua-botanical extract, have shown to trigger
the release of millions of stem cells from the bone marrow very quickly.
These stem cells can then migrate and attach to any cells, tissue, bone,
muscle, cartilage, organ anywhere in the body needing repair. Once they
attach, they become that tissue and multiply 3 to 5000 times. When there
is an injury or a stress to an organ of your beloved pet or horse, compounds
are released that reach the bone marrow and trigger the release of stem
cells. Stem Cells can be thought of as “master” cells. Stem cells
circulate and function to replace dysfunctional cells, thus fulfilling
the natural process of maintaining optimal health.
As they do in humans, adult stem cells reside in animals bone marrow,
where they are released whenever there is a problem somewhere in the body.
Looking back on stem cell research, we realize that most studies have been
done with animals, mostly mice, but also with dogs, horses, pigs, sheep
and cattle. These studies have revealed that animal stem cells conduct
themselves the same way human stem cells do. When there is an injury or
a stress to an organ of your beloved pet or horse, compounds are released
that reach the bone marrow and trigger the release of stem cells. The stem
cells then travel to tissues and organs in need of help to regain optimal
health.
Stem cell enhancer for dogs, cats, horses and other animals are specially
formulated to be a delectable treat for your animal. The pet chewables
and equine blends make it easy to provide your animals with this valuable
nutritional supplement. The most common story is that of old, tired and
sluggish dogs turned — within a week or so — into active, alert dogs running
around like puppies. The same was observed in horses. Old horses who used
to remain standing in the barn or under a tree, sluggish or stricken by
too much discomfort to walk around, suddenly began moving about, and at
times running and bucking like young colts. One of the most common reports
was obvious improvements in hoof health and coat appearance. Stem
Cell Nutritional Enhancers are available in countries around the world
EQUINE
STEM CELL NUTRITION Eve-Marie Lucerne (Testimonial in Healthspan Magazine, Spring 2007)
- Eve-Marie keeps nine horses, “all older thoroughbreds,” and was eager
to participate in the trials of the new stem cell enhancer for horses.
She shared her allotment of test products with a few large commercial thoroughbred
farms, veterinarians and other “horse people” she knows, and has been pleased
with the consistently excellent results she has seen and others have reported
to her. “This product will help so many animals,” she says, adding, “People
and animals are more alike than we are different. So it makes sense that
a stem cell enhancer for animals with promote their health, too.”
Eve-Marie’s pet product trials show dramatic results. “For several horses
facing serious physical challenges, cases where the animals might have
to be put down, we saw a return to quality of life. This did not happen
before Equine Stem Cell Nutrition.” Eve-Marie says that this turnaround
was quick, less than two weeks in many cases, and that the subject horses
were back to health and enjoying pasture life within a month. One of the
unofficial trial subjects for the equine stem cell nutrition was a 30-year
old donkey who was in “bad shape,” Eve-Marie reports. “He had chronic respiratory
difficulty and could move about only haltingly”. His owner had StemEnhance
to help with her own serious health challenges and shared it with the donkey.
“The donkey’s owner says this is the first time she wasn’t sick, and her
donkey is walking all around, feeling great an enjoying life again!”
Farrier and National Hoof practitioner Stephen Dick received some of
the trial product from Eve-Marie, and had good results with the two horses
he selected for trial. For a 12-year-old quarterhorse stallion, the equine
product brought dramatic results. “This horse used to lie down twenty-two
hours of the day, because he suffered discomfort whenever he stood,” Steve
reports, continuing, “after a couple of weeks with Equine Stem Cell Nutrition,
he was getting up and moving around, showing no discomfort.” For a high-spirited
mare with a leg problem, the equine product brought about a whole new lease
on life, Steve says. “This horse had been in a stall for 8 months. After
about 6 weeks taking the equine product with her grain, her condition had
improved and she was out of the stall, walking around in the pasture again.”
Steve says that the mare’s owner
was so impressed with her results her horse received with the equine product
that she began taking StemEnhance herself for an inflammatory problem that
had kept her in misery for a long time. Within weeks, the owner’s discomfort
was gone, and Steve had acquired a new customer for both of StemTech’s
great products!
Little Joe, a small 18-year-old quarterhorse that Judy Fisher bought
when he was nearly 400 pounds underweight. “You could count his ribs,”
Judy says, remembering, “and his backbone stuck up like a ridge all along
his back. He was very, very thin!” Little Joe also suffered from breathing
problems that kept him lethargic and inactive. Vet-recommended remedies
were unsuccessful in changing Little Joe’s physical problems, and the vet
told Judy he didn’t expect Little Joe to live through the winter.
“I figured Little Joe was in such bad shape that anything was worth a try,”
she says. She began giving the horse stem cell nutrition with his feed
and grain twice a day. Within a couple of weeks, Judy was surprised to
see Little Joe beginning to gain weight and run, buck, snort and kick.
His breathing was no longer labored and his skin and coat were improving.
Within six weeks Little Joe’s overall appearance had changed dramatically.
He had put on almost 300 pounds. “When his former owner came to visit,”
Judy says, “he didn’t recognize Little Joe. That’s how different he looked!”
Sara participated in the stem cell nutrition product trials with her
two horses and her 80-pound mixed-breed dog. She noted significant improvement
in the health and quality of life for all three animals during the time
of the trials. For JJ, Sara’s 18-year old quarterhorse, the equine product
brought about improvements in his overall mood, appearance and alertness
quickly. “He really liked the product from the beginning,” Sara reports,
pointing out that Hank, her 16-year-old thoroughbred/quarterhorse, had
not taken to the taste of it too readily. “I was able to slowly wean him
on it though,” she says. For Hank, the equine product was a balm for the
skin problems resulting from his allergy to fly bites. “His skin condition
improved dramatically.” Sara reports, noting that before the equine product
the horse had scratched and bitten himself into ope wounds; after the equine
product, the scratching and biting dropped off to almost nothing. Sara
also noticed an increase in Hank’s energy and liveliness in the first week
on the equine product. The horse’s foot and hip discomforts also responded
well, leading to a noticeable increase in his mobility and an overall improvement
in his quality of life throughout the two-month study. Sare gave the pet
product to her dog, Roxy, who had suffered for two years with ear problems
that led to scratching, often until her skin was raw. Vet-recommended remedies
had been “temporary, quick-fixes,” Sara says, but the discomfort always
returned “with a vengeance.” For the pet trials, Sara gave Roxy two tabs
of the product a day for two months, noting “this is the only supplement
she was getting.” Sara says “Roxy’s problem with her ears definitely improved,
the hair as grown back on her head and ears, and the ear problem has not
recurred,” adding that Roxy is “happier and engaging, more playful.”
CANINE STEM CELL NUTRITION Sonya had originally planned to use only her six-year-old Doberman
Pinscher, Ginger, as a test subject for the pet product to see if the product
could help with discomfort in her hips that had limited her mobility. That
was until the day when Sonya’s 14-year-old Irish Setter/Lab, Rowdy, took
it upon himself to scarf up some large crumbs from Ginger’s test dose of
the pet product. Before dining on Ginger’s leftovers, Rowdy was best characterized
as the “lazy dog” type, very lethargic “and he never left my side,” Sonya
reports. The first day with the pet product, Rowdy “found the puppy in
himself again,” says Sonya “and wanted to stay out all night, tracking
who-knows-what, but having a great time.” Sonya added Rowdy to her trial
regimen and says that only two-three trial chewables made the difference
in Rowdy’s energy level, returning him to youthful activity. Meanwhile,
the original trial subject, Ginger, has a new life and is able to keep
up with 2-year-old Norwich Terrier mix Scrappy for the first time ever.
Ginger has regained her ability to run at top speeds, and is able to dig
for hours with Scrappy. Previously unable to get up from a prone position
without some difficulty, Ginger now leaps to standing or chasing positions
without a moment’s hesitation. “ Stem Cell Nutrition for dogs has helped
both of my big dogs to have their youth back,” Sonya reports, adding “I
am a real believer in the canine product, as it has provided a spectacular
change in both Ginger and Rowdy.
For dogs, depending on the size of your companion, you simply give half
or one full tablet, which has a tasty dried beef and liver meal flavor.
For horses, to the animal’s daily grain you add one scoop of scrumptious
molasses based stem cell nutritional enhancers.
“My German Shepherd was not able to get around, but within 2 weeks of
using Stem Cell Nutrition for pets, her hips were not as stiff and she
started running like a puppy.” Jan, IN

Biology Sheng Ding Ph.D Assistant Professor Department of Chemistry
The main research focus of my laboratory is to develop and integrate
chemical and functional genomic tools to study stem cell biology and regeneration.
Over the past few years, we have constructed large combinatorial chemical
libraries (>100,000 small molecules) and arrayed cDNA (>30,000 human and
mouse genes) and RNAi (targeting over 16,000 human and mouse genes with
more than three designed sequences per gene) libraries. Furthermore we
have developed and implemented high throughput cellular screens of these
libraries to identify small molecules and genes which can control stem
cell fate in various systems (including pluripotent embryonic stem cells,
multipotent adult neural stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells, and lineage-restricted
somatic cells), as well as modulate specific signaling pathways. Moreover,
biochemical and cellular studies, including genome-wide expression analysis
using Affymetrix microarrays, affinity chromatography for target identification,
and cDNA and/or RNAi complementation screens to map signaling pathway,
are being used to characterize the molecular mechanism of these identified
small molecules and genes. Those studies may ultimately facilitate the
therapeutic application of stem cells and the development of small molecule
drugs to stimulate tissue and organ regeneration in vivo.
Individuals with a rare, inherited neurological disorder called Williams
Syndrome suffer from mental retardation and an inability to visualise
objects mentally - when asked to describe an everyday object such as a
bus in their "mind's eye", for example, they may see it as a disconnected
set of features, like scattered fragments of a jigsaw puzzle.
Williams Syndrome, which appears to be caused by mis-wiring of the brain
during embryonic development, has been genetically linked to the loss of
a gene called LIMK1. Consistent with its role in a neurological disorder,
the LIMK1 protein is expressed chiefly in nerve cells, but is also present
in the nuclei and cytoplasm of most other cells. Dr Ora Bernard has found
that the loss of both copies of LIMK1 from the genome of mice results in
the death of the mutant embryos. In Williams Syndrome, only one locus of
LIMK1 has been lost - usually, two copies of every gene are present in
the genome, one from each parent.
Dr Bernard and her collaborators have recently discovered that LIMK1
is intimately involved in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. This
cellular organelle is one part of the apparatus that helps cells assume
shapes appropriate for their environment; the other is the tubulin cytoskeleton.
The two cytoskeletal systems are also required for the locomotion of cells,
their division and for making cell to cell connections, roles of great
importance in the way cells respond to their environmen more
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, often disabling neurological disease
of the central nervous system (CNS) - the brain and spinal cord. It involves
the degeneration of the fatty myelin sheath that surrounds neurons in the
CNS. The myelin sheath, produced by specialised cells called oligodendrocytes,
normally facilitates transmission of nerve impulses in the CNS by electrically
insulating nerves from the surrounding environment. In MS, patches of scar
tissue form and may permanently impair nerve transmission. Multiple sclerosis
is currently incurable, and its cause is unknown. It has traditionally
been regarded as an autoimmune disorder, like insulin dependent diabetes
and rheumatoid arthritis. But that view is now under question, according
to Dr Trevor Kilpatrick.
Dr Kilpatrick says that while MS appears to have an auto-immune
component, it may be a secondary phenomenon - a sequel to a more fundamental
cause. A pointer to this possibility, he says, is that immunosuppressive
drugs like cyclosporin, cyclophosphamide and azothioprine, which can alleviate
rheumatoid arthritis and slow the onset of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus,
are ineffective therapies for multiple sclerosis.
Greater number of circulating stem
cells equate to optimal health
Stem
Cell Nutritional Enhancers are naturally
derived from nutritional food supplement, (aquatic botanical
extract) which supports wellness by assisting the body in its ability to
maintain healthy stem cell physiology, production, and placement.
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.
Stem cell Enhancers 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”.
The
Proteus Effect: Stem Cells and Their Promise for Medicine Arguably
the most exciting, promising and controversial medical research being performed
today explores the potential of stem cells, unique cells that, when dividing,
can produce either more cells like themselves or other specialized cells,
such as heart cells, skin cells and neurons. Stem cells research is bringing
the promise of regenerative medicine and miracle cures for such conditions
as multiple sclerosis, blindness, heart damage and male pattern baldness.
Blood Stem cells: 25 Trillion blood cells exist in the blood and every
second 2 million blood cells die and are replaced. Researcher found
that mice with defective bone marrow (damaged by radiation) could be restored
by translates of marrow stem cells injected directly in the blood. The
bone marrow transplant in essence restored the bone marrow stem cells to
functional and normal status.
Stem Cell Research is
aimed at the potential that certain types of cells, called stem cells,
have for regenerating damaged tissue in the body. A stem cell is capable
of developing into other types of cells, like liver cells, heart cells,
etc. Current medical research is focused on two particular types of stem
cells, embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Of the three types of
stem cells, two are able to develop into any type of cell within the human
body. These two are called totipotent and pluripotent. The third type of
stem cell is more limited in it's potential and can only develop into a
small number of other types of cells. Stem cells can be thought of as "master
cells". You've probably heard about the controversy of embryonic stem cells
in the news. Stem cells are found in human embryos, umbilical cords (mothers
can donate their cords for this purpose) but are also found in adult tissue.
Adult stem cells are most abundantly found in bone marrow. Stem cells circulate
and function to replace dysfunctional cells, thus fulfilling the natural
process of maintaining optimal health.
What
is the difference between marine phytoplankton
or Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae
(AFA) and Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers"? Whole AFA has been used
for more than two decades with a very good track record of safety and health
benefits. Whole AFA has been used as a natural anti-inflammatory product,
to support the immune system, and to improve mental clarity and mental
energy. Over the past few years a scientific team has isolated and identified
the various components in AFA responsible for the various health benefits
of AFA. In brief, AFA has been found to contain phenylethylamine (PEA)
responsible for providing a feeling of mental energy, phycocyanin responsible
for the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, a polysaccharide
responsible for supporting the immune system, and most recently an L-selectin
ligand responsible for supporting the release of stem cells from the bone
marrow. Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" is a 5:1 concentrate of AFA that concentrates the four
compounds listed above. It is specifically designed and developed to support
stem cell physiology, but it also concentrates other compounds unique to
AFA, bringing unique support for the whole body.
Marine phytoplankton and
AFA are the whole plant, the whole food, the intact plant
signature. Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" are EXTRACTS. The extracted
polysaccharides that make up Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" are 100%
natural, no chemical, and is cold processed. The reason that a person
would want to take the Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" in addition to
the marine phytoplankton or AFA is to create
a greater movement of the bodys' own Stem Cells and to help the body heal
itself. Marine phytoplankton and AFA are very nutritious at
the cellular level which has great healing effects to the entire body and
like Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" they can also stimulate the bone
marrow to release stem cells. As we age and get older, the Stem Cells
are less viable and don't move as easy. They are attached to the
bone marrow by an L-selectin ligand. Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers"
creates them to break free and to circulate in higher numbers. Our
body has to have stem cell movement to repair itself. A stem cell
is pluripotent. Meaning that if it goes to the liver, it becomes
a liver cell. If it goes to the brain, it becomes a brain cell. So
as each cell in the body dies and new ones are made, it is critical to
have healthy cells to replace them (AFA does this at
the cellular level) and it is important to keep the stem cells moving in
great numbers for faster healing (Stem
Cell nutritional "Enhancers".)
Why
may Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" be contraindicated for people on
anticoagulant therapy? One gram of Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" contains roughly half of the recommended daily allowance in
vitamin K. Vitamin K is an essential nutrient playing an important role
in the process of blood coagulation. However, when one experiences cardiovascular
problems, oftentimes doctors will elect to put a one of anticoagulant therapy
in order to prevent blood clot and make it easier for the heart to pump
blood through the body. Since vitamin K promotes blood coagulation, it
is customary to tell people to avoid vitamin K while being on anticoagulant
therapy. This being said, it is not so much the presence of vitamin K in
the diet as much as the consistency in the daily intake. Therefore, the
best approach is to discuss with your doctor about your desire to take
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers", that it contains vitamin K, and the
anticoagulant prescription can be adjusted through careful monitoring of
your condition by your doctor.
Can
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" be taken with other drugs? As far as we have studied
and researched, the only possible interaction is with antidepressant medications,
as Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" contains phenylethylamine (PEA), a
compound naturally produced by the brain that affect dopamine and norepinephrine
in the brain. PEA is known for its effect on mood elevation and mental
energy. Intereactions with antidepressant medications have not been reported,
but the possibility exists. People should consult their doctor before taking
Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" if they are on antidepressant medication.
Has
any study shown that people improved their health as a result of taking
it? Numerous empirical reports
and testimonials testify to the health benefits of taking Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers". Many companies have been shut down by the FDA because of inferred
health claims linked to documentation of improvements with various diseases.
We intend to maintain our message clearly within the boundaries of the
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act, and let Stem Cell nutritional
"Enhancers" speaks for itself. We would be delighted to provide Mr. Barrett
with a few bottles of Stem Cell nutritional "Enhancers" so he can see the
benefits on his own health. More

Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D.
says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to
sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make
new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called
"the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range
of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes
and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum
health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants
and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead
to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy
and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens
also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation.

Transfer
Factor Molecules And The Immune System Transfer factors are tiny
molecules found in colostrum which provide "immune knowledge" from a mother's
immune system to her baby used in recognizing and fighting outside threats.
By transferring information from cell to cell, transfer factors serve as
"teachers" to the new cells, ensuring a strong immune system capable of
surviving, even thriving, in its new environment. There are over 3,000
published papers and 50 years of research on various forms and sources
of transfer factors. These molecules were first discovered in the
late 40's by Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence.

Most people who have explored
the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing have heard about wheatgrass.
Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many years to benefit people in numerous
ways: cleansing the lymph system, building the blood, restoring balance
in the body, removing toxic metals from the cells, nourishing the liver
and kidneys and restoring vitality. One ounce of wheatgrass juice has
the vitamin and mineral equivalent of 2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It
contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed for human maintenance,
including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits of wheatgrass juice stem
from the fact that it is a living food, which is a complete protein with
about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude chlorophyll.

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics,congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals
and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and
chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.

and your animals.
Shirley was once a victim
of the never-ending flow of propaganda from the medical establishment who
wants to maintain a monopoly on the word "cure" and who wants us to believe
that we have no control over our own health and that our only hope to get
"well" is with drugs, surgery and radiation. You can read an account
of Shirley's
journey into health without drugs, surgery or radiation.
The Truth
About the Drug Companies : How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It
"The medical establishment works closely with the drug multinationals whose
main objective is profits, and whose worst nightmare would be an epidemic
of good health. Lots of drugs MUST be sold. In order to achieve this, anything
goes: lies, fraud, and kickbacks. Doctors are the principal salespeople
of the drug companies. " Guylaine Lanctot, M.D.
Raising
Public Awareness Most modern maladies are
caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and
toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides,
antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack
of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by
the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease"
and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against
them. more
Gandhi - “We
have grown accustomed to believing that no illness can be cured without
medicine. However, this is just a superstition. Medicines are always dangerous”
A
growing number of holistic doctors, pediatricians and veterinarians use
transfer
factors as an alternative to, or in conjunction with conventional
medicine for their acute and chronic cases, including cancer and other
serious health conditions, with excellent outcome.
Dr. Rob Robertson, MD
- "There is no other product in a nutritional substance, nor a drug, that
has this kind of power and ability to affect our immune system. With the
increase of killer viruses, mutated germs, super-resistant germs, and food
contaminations, our only hope and defense, must lie within our own immune
system." Transfer factors and the immune sytem
Dr.
Howard Peiper MD "Our immune systems are under attack from toxic substances
that are everywhere - in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water
we drink. Serious disease doesn't just happen. The accumulation of toxins
compromises our immune system and wears the body down leaving us vulnerable
to all sorts of maladies. The body has an amazing ability to recover from
illness and restore itself if we give it the tools to work with." learn

that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything
one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials
to make new cells that function normally. These nutrients improve mental

Teas
Are One of The Most Effective Ways to Benefit from Nature's Healing Herbs Teas can help fight depression
and anxiety, heal skin conditions and gastrointestinal disorders, regulate
hormone imbalances, improve your sex life, prevent illness, and help
you heal faster.
Many diseases and conditions for which we turn to modern medicine can also
be treated naturally with healing herbs. These treatments can be safer,
less expensive and possibly even more effective than traditional methods.
Dr.
Myklebust, MD: "Teas are rich in antioxidants called polyphenols which
are plant chemicals that may help prevent cancer, heart disease, and other
diseases" More
MagnesiumTherapy
Magnesium helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart
rhythm steady, and bones strong. Dr. Sidney Baker - "Magnesium deficiency
can affect virtually every organ system of the body. With regard to skeletal
muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness,
including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches and jaw joint (TMJ)
dysfunction." more
