STEM CELL AWARENESS DAY

Did you know that today, September 24, 2009, is Stem Cell Awareness Day? I only discovered the fact a few minutes ago. Evidently it was declared by Governors Arnold Scwartzenegger of California and Jim Doyle of Wisconsin.

Every family knows they are one phone call or one diagnosis away from needing what stem cell research can yield for us.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi U.S. House of Representatives

I had intended to follow up my post about stem cells ( August 23.09 What's All This Fuss About Stem Cells?) long before now, but this seems to be a good time today.  If you re-read that post, it will bring you to where I want to start today.


As I pointed out in that previous post, stem cell transplant, or stem cell therapy as it is also called, is a medical/surgical procedure which can take a lot of time. Whenever there is an invasive technique used on our bodies, there is the accompanying potential for infection to enter. Also, for those being treated in this manner for cancer, chemotherapy must be done to destroy all bone marrow stem cells before transfusing the treated cells back into the blood stream. We all know the possible consequences of that. As Dr. Lorraine Day states on her video, all doctors know that chemo and radiation cause cancer. So, if we want to get rid of cancer, why treat it with a cancer-causing agent? Dr. Day says it's because doctors just plain don't know what to do, so they opt for doing anything rather than nothing. Or learning about natural, alternative options.

Enter StemEnhance™ from StemTech Health Sciences Inc.

Aphanazomenon Flos Aquae (I know, another of those unpronounceable words) is a type of blue/green algae that grows profusely in Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon. It has been discovered that this algae, also known as AFAs (much easier to say!), have the capability of supporting the human body so that it releases 25-30% more stem cells into the blood stream 1/2 hour after taking two capsules. Only 1 gram of StemEnhance supports the mobilization and migration of bone marrow stem cells, and consequent renewal.


The New England Journal of Medicine, September 3, 2005, stated: Bone marrow stem cells constitute the natural 'renewal' system of the body. Simply supporting the release of stem cells from the bone marrow allows the body to combat entropy, promoting greater health.

Entrophy, or aging, can be overcome to a certain degree by rebuilding the body by counteracting the breakdown processes. Whether you take StemEnhance™ or not, the bone marrow daily replaces stem cells in the circulatory system. But with StemEnhance™ added to your daily regime of nutrition, the rebuilding process will be enhanced so you begin to experience wellness. StemEnhance™ does not heal anything. It merely supports the body to be more efficient in healing itself.


StemEnhance™ is a blend of two AFA fractions that concentrate the components found in AFA. It is a patented formula. No other company has this revolutionary product.


StemFlo™, another product from StemTech, "supports the optimum blood circulation by digesting fibrin, reducing oxidative stress in the blood, detoxifying the blood and improving overall blood flow. It is especially designed to support the delivery of stem cells to all parts of the body and when used in conjunction with StemEnhance™, it optimizes the body's ability to deliver and circulate adult stem cells to the tissues and organs where they are needed. It also supports the delivery of nutrients and oxygen, as well as immune cells, throughout the whole body." ---Dr. Donna Antar---


So, I'm sure you can see the real benefit of using StemEnhance™ and StemFlo™ together to help your body heal naturally. A much safer, quicker, more efficient method to increase stem cells in the blood, don't you agree? Not sick? Then use them as a preventative. It's a lot easier to prevent disease than to find a remedy to remove it.


If you're interested in further information, go to my web site and fill out the survey. A free e-book will be made available to you for download that will give you much more information than I have given here. After you fill out the survey, you will receive a series of automated e-mails giving more info about the company and product. There will be no pressure on my part to "sign you up" or to "push my product" on you. I merely want you to be informed. I hope you will download the book and read it.

So, happy Stem Cell Awareness Day to all of you!

WHAT'S ALL THIS FUSS ABOUT STEM CELLS?

You've no doubt heard all about it. Google it and get almost nine and a half million results. Check the blogs--almost half a million entries. Watch it on the news. Read about it in the newspaper and magazines. It's everywhere! What is it? Just two simple words: stem cells.

So, what exactly is a stem cell anyway? It is a building block of life. Stem cells are non-specific cells. What do I mean by that? When stem cells are released from the bone marrow into the blood stream, they circulate until they find stressed tissue in the body. Let's say you've just strained a muscle in your back attempting to lift something too heavy for you. Those stem cells will end up in that muscle and will actually become muscle cells. They then proliferate many times over, creating healthy muscle cells which promote the healing of that muscle.

Now, suppose you have a liver problem. Stem cells will travel around in the blood stream until they arrive in the liver, leave the blood and move into that organ. There they will become liver cells and will multiply as healthy liver cells, again promoting healing. That's just what stem cells were created to do. So you see, they are not a specific type of cell until they enter into a stressed tissue. That tissue will determine the type of cell the stem cell will become. Stem cells can become virtually any type of cell.

Why all the controversy over which type to use: embryonic or adult stem cells? What is the difference? Embryonic stem cells, as the name implies, come from an embryo. This means that a potential human life is destroyed in the process. Adult stem cells, on the other hand, come from the umbilical cord or bone marrow. The moment a baby is born, the stem cells are termed adult. So you can see the moral issue here.

For some reason unknown to me, some scientists still insist on using embryonic stem cells even though the consensus has been formed that adult stem cells are much more effective. To say nothing about the fact that no life is destroyed by their use.

Then you have stem cell transplants. Stem cells are taken from the blood, treated and stored, then transfused back into the donor or into another patient--after they have gone through chemo, radiation and drugs to suppress the immune system. Of course, there is a lot more to it than that, but I want to keep it simple for this blog. Also, I am obviously not a scientist. If you would like to know more about what happens to the patient, please click on this link and read the article. You will then understand the desire for a simpler, safer method to increase the number of stem cells in the blood stream.

But is there a better method? And if so, why is it not used by the medical field? I invite you to watch for my next article on stem cell enhancement using StemEnhance from StemTech Health Sciences Inc. Until then, please check my web site watch the video and fill in the survey to receive access to download a free e-book written by Christian Drapeau, co-founder of StemTech and co-formulator of the world's only natural stem cell enhancer.
