StemTech: An Innovator in Stem Cell Research

raymumme — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:40:13 +0000

There has been quite a bit of controversy over the past ten years surrounding stem cell research, most of it surrounded by the fact that those stem cells have come from developing fetuses. Babies aren’t the only ones with stem cells, however. Adults have them too, and they’re a major part of keeping your body healthy. We were all born with adult stem cells in our bone marrow. StemTech has been among the first to develop this potential hidden in those stem cells which play a role in long term health.

Before you can understand what StemTech and StemEnhance, a nutritional supplement developed by StemTech that specifically focuses on triggering the release of stem cell into the blood stream, you have to first understand what stem cells actually are. When a fetus is developing it doesn’t have tissue cells, erythrocytes, lymphocytes, hair cells or any of the 210 distinct cell types found in the human body. That would be pretty difficult for what is essentially a single celled organism for a short period of time! What they have are developing stem cells, cells that have the ability to become any type of cell when they reach maturity. Adults have these stem cells as well, hidden inside the bone marrow and scattered throughout various tissues. These “undifferentiated” cells exist specifically to help the body renew and repair the tissue in which they are needed. This is the way your body has always repaired itself from the day you were born.

Stem cells from the bone marrow have also been transplanted for years to help patients suffering from cancers and many other disease and conditions to regenerate new cells of that specific organ where they are needed, and scientists are currently exploring the potential to transplant stem cells from other parts of the body as well. Transplantation isn’t what StemTech has been focusing on, however. Evidence shows that over time, the stem cells in the bone marrow start to slow up the natural process of entering the blood and doing their work due to age, diets, toxins and much more that we are exposed to, i.e., the ageing process. Hence, the body starts to fail through natural degeneration. Scientists at StemTech asked themselves, “If you could stimulate the body to continue triggering the release of stem cells, how would that improve quality of life?” The company then launched StemEnhance, a nutritional supplement designed to help trigger the release of cells through the use of a concentration from Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae (AFA). AFA is a blue-green algae that, among other things, has proven to stimulate the release of stem cells from the marrow by as much as 27 percent within 30 minutes of taking the supplement. You do not have to worry about releasing too many stem cells and depleting them, every time one leaves another sister cell is created to keep the population constant.

Stem Enhance users reported increased energy and a feeling of vitality after using the supplement for only a short time and StemTech Scientists have discovered that this increased stimulation helps the body respond quickly to foreign invaders through nutritional mobilization of the immune system.

StemTech is currently looking for entrepreneurs interested in becoming private distributors of StemEnhance. StemEnhance is available exclusively through StemTech distributors only.

ADULT STEM CELL NUTRITION: Providing Not Just a Whimper of Hope but a Real Revolution

raymumme — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 23:46:38 +0000

At approximately the age of 35 the body starts to break down at a more rapid rate. Recovery from injury takes longer, cholesterol levels start to rise, as does the blood pressures, hair begins to grey and fine lines set in. Your cancer risk increases as well. If you are not leading a preemptive style approach to maintaining optimal health, you begin to collect health conditions. One of the reasons for this decline in health is the reduction in the release of adult stem cells into the blood stream, a supply which is readily available in your very own bone marrow.

Stem cell research is considered a controversial subject because often times it appears to go against nature. The greatest point of contention involves embryonic stem cell lines – those cells which are harvested from human embryos. Granted this type of cell has the remarkable ability to evolve into any type of cell needed in the human body (known as pluripotent capabilities), the harvesting of these pluripotent cells is controversial because one life has to end for another to benefit from the use of their cells. This is not the case with regards to adult stem cells (ASCs). As research continues on all aspects of stem cells, it is becoming increasingly apparent that we do not have to take a complicated and controversial approach to medically advance ourselves. Recent results have given us reason to be hopeful that adult stem cells also have the ability to become nearly any type of cell in the body.

What exactly are stem cells?
Stem cells are primal cells they are in essence the very beginning of life. When a sperm unites with the egg, the very first cell created is a stem cell. Also known as master cells a stem cell has the ability to differentiate into other cell tissue types. This ability allows the stem cell to become many different types of cells as needed by the body and, therefore, act to support optimal organ and tissue function. Is your heart in need of repair, skin, eyes, liver, stomach, brain? Studies now have demonstrated ASCs have the ability to act as a repair system, rebuilding and restoring healthy functions and replenishing other cells as long as the organism is alive. This potential is reinventing the way we treat and prevent disease.

Introduction to Stem Cell Nutrition
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.

“Spinal Cord Injury” what your own stem cells can do

raymumme — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 21:44:15 +0000

I met this young man in early October 2009 at a Stem Cell Advocate presentation in Springfield, MO. Jason was learning about stem cell therapy and what kind of money he would need to raise to go to China for a bone marrow stem cell extraction to help him walk again someday. He told me he had seen about ten Dr’s and they all told him that this was the best he could expect with his future. Jason refused to accept that answer.

Jason got into a serious auto accident in March of 08 and was paralyzed from his chest down.

I by accident tried Stem Enhance in the summer of 2008 trying to feel better, within a few weeks my life completely changed do to the product so I started sharing it with others and started my plan B. Oh by the way thank goodness for the plan B be in this unstable economy.

I am leaving two links so that you might read what an all natural product that grows wild is doing for Jason, and how it can help anyone who is willing to give it a try.

Stem Cell Enhancers Can Enhance Your Health!

raymumme — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:35:25 +0000

Stem Cell Enhancers are one of the most recent breakthroughs in natural health care.
What is it and how can it help you maintain great health?
First let’s talk about stem cells. Stem Cells can be thought of as “master” cells.
You’ve probably heard in the news about the controversy of embryonic stem cells. Indeed, stem cells are found in human embryos, but they are also found in adult tissue. Adult stem cells are most abundantly found in bone marrow.
What they do is to circulate and function to replace dysfunctional cells, thus fulfilling the natural process of maintaining optimal health.
In other words, a stem cell is a cell that has the ability to duplicate itself endlessly and to become cells of virtually any organ and tissue of the body.
Embryonic stem cells are cells extracted from the very early embryo, which has an exceptional ability to duplicate in a test tube, and to become cells of almost any tissue. Adult stem cells are cells found in an organism after birth. Until very recently, it was believed that adult stem cells could only become blood cells, bone and connective tissue. But recent developments over the past 5 years have revealed that adult stem cells have capabilities similar to embryonic stem cells.

So while there is controversy about the use of embryonic stem cells, recent advances in stem cell research were listed as one of the most significant health-related stories in the past 25 years by CNN, second only to the complete mapping of the human genome.
I’ve studied this topic for some time. I’m always looking for ways to maintain or improve my health, and I have a great interest in helping other people to do the same for themselves.

Thus I’m interested in what science and modern medicine have to offer us.
The benefits of stem cell enhancers are considerable.
Basically, stem cell enhancers support the release of adult stem cells from bone marrow into circulation. They also support stem cell functions in the body.
Consider that 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.
So, a new theory, known as 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 attract 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.
If for some reason the stem cells released from the bone marrow do not reach a tissue, they simply home back to the bone marrow after some time. So there are no side effects.
Recent studies suggest that the number of circulating stem cells is a key factor; the higher the number of circulating stem cells the greater the ability of the body to heal itself.

I’m pretty well sold on the fact that stem cell enhancers, using stem cells from adult bone marrow, are the newest and perhaps brightest promise we have for helping us keep or regain optimum health.

The Role of Stem Cells in Exercise and Recovery

raymumme — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 20:18:26 +0000

Ask any physician and they will tell you that exercise is essential to optimal health. What many physicians won’t mention though – especially to non-athletes – is that the key to sustaining optimal health is to balance the breakdown of the body with its renewal.

Thanks to years of research, science has now established that the efficiency of your body’s renewal system depends upon your body’s ability to release adult stem cells. In a nutshell, the greater your ability to release adult stem cells the more efficient your renewal system and the better your body’s ability to sustain good health. View quick video by chief science officer; http://www.stemtechchat.com/video/intro092006/CDrapeau-Intro1a.html
The body is naturally programmed to balance the breakdown and renewal processes but when it gets out of balance problems can develop. In an athlete, this issue of balance between breakdown and renewal is more complicated. For people who are working to improve their performance in a sport or are working toward competition — even amateur competitions — paying attention to natural renewal is critical.

For athletes, it is not enough merely to sustain the body’s health; an athlete’s body also needs extra support for recovery. This is where a patented aqua-botanical concentrate of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) found in a respected clinical study to enhance the body’s natural release of adult stem cells, comes into play. Let me explain …

Both “weekend athletes” and reformed “couch potatoes” are doing what is — by all accounts — good for you. Nevertheless, most every one of these people has experienced muscle soreness after exercise or sport. In medical terms, this discomfort is called “delayed onset muscle soreness” (DOMS), and is thought to be a result of microscopic tearing of the muscle fibers. In addition to small muscle tears, there can be associated swelling in a muscle, which may contribute to soreness.

The amount of tearing (and soreness) depends on how hard and how long a person exercises and what type of exercise he or she does. In fact, any movement you are not used to can lead to DOMS. The weekend athlete limps in on Monday morning because of these microscopic tears, which cause loss of muscle strength, flexibility and power. As the body repairs these microscopic tears, we become stronger. This is recovery.

How quickly and how effectively an athlete’s body can recover affects his/her ability to train without getting injured. This is where the extra support given by the AFA concentrate becomes so valuable for everyone who is exercising to any level. By giving extra support to the body’s natural renewal system, we can support this natural process of recovery from exercise to build strength and stamina.
