"Repair your own heart!"
Regenerative medicine is on the verge of an enormous and historic leap forward.
"In the not-too-distant future, instead of using dangerous, not very effective, invasive procedures, or toxic, chemical medicines to treat heart attack patients, doctors should be able to inject stem cells from the patients own body into a vein where the stem cells will target the heart to allow growth and repair of damaged heart tissue!"
"Stem cell medicine or regenerative medicine has been much heralded as the key to extending and improving the quality of life for millions by actually repairing damaged organs, including the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and even the spinal cord, which normally does not undergo regeneration."
The previous titles and quotes are from a company called CellCyte as featured in James L. Rapholz's Economic Advice Newsletter as of 10/3/07.
They go into detail how the Adult Stem Cells (taken primarily from the bone marrow) can reproduce and become basically any kind of tissue in need of repair.
As I read this 12 page report, I had to "smile inside", knowing that the product StemEnhance from StemTech HealthSciences Inc. does this very thing right now, as an all natural dietary supplement.

What a Diference a Day Makes With StemEnhance
In May 2007, a friend asked me to try a new product called StemEnhance and see if I would experience any relief from some discomfort I was experiencing. He explained that this was a nutritional supplement, the very first of it's kind in a new category called Stem Cell Enhancers. Having about 6 years of training in the medical field helped me understand the basic concept discussed in the DVD he had given me to watch, in fact I found it quite exciting and intriguing.
The discomfort and loss of range of motion I was experiencing came from several factors. I have broken my back 3 times, have 2 kinds of arthritis, have FSHMD, had quad bi-pass heart surgery 20 years ago and rely on a wheelchair for mobility. To sum it up in good old country terms you might say "I was rode hard and put away wet". If you have been around horses you will understand that colloquialism.
I started taking the StemEnhance, 2 servings twice a day and and have continued since. The first thing I noticed was some fading of what I call "old age spots" on my hands but then I noticed the discomfort had subsided in my hands and I could actually make a fist with my right hand (something I had not been able to do in years). I then found that I could sleep on my back without the normal discomfort and then in August I found I could move my left leg and place my foot on the wheelchair foot rest, by myself! This was new... I continue taking StemEnhance and find I have a general overall feeling of wellness - all this from a new and revolutionary nutritional supplement.

So What is This StemEnhance and Why do I Need it?
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 Simple Hypothesis
How does one explain the origin and purpose of the Adult Stem Cell in a world that is just discovering (once again) that we are more than a bunch of randomized genes and chromosomes that found our way here by some accident.
Yes, I know that some will find what I write quite amusing if not completely ridiculous due to the level at which I communicate and the fact that I believe that our bodies, anatomy and physiology, are no accident or random happening.
To understand the Adult Stem Cell requires some knowledge of how life starts and our bodies develop. First, as soon as the egg is fertilized by the sperm life and cell division begin. The early cell divisions are considered embryonic because they are of the embryo and are not differentiated (meaning they have not specialized into any type cell) these are the ones many researchers want to use for research because they can be "engineered" to become any type of cell, at least in vetro meaning outside the body. How many cells are we talking about? Depends on which report you read, but most put it between 140 and 200 cells. At this point the cells begin to differentiate, or become cells with a specific purpose. One may be for bone or skeletal production, another for the digestive system, another for the nervous system and so on. Yes, this is a very simple explanation and does not go into any of the details on how this actually happens. There are many reports available, written by top researchers that will go into these details, but for my purpose they would only confuse the issue. The point I am trying to make is that these cells are "builders" that build our bodies through continued duplication.
There is another cell that appears to differentiate into what we now know as the Adult Stem Cell. These cells are not "builders" as mentioned earlier, but are the "repairman" or "maintenance men" for our bodies. Their function is to help the body heal itself by traveling through the blood supply to an injured area then attaching themselves and differentiating into the type of cell that is injured or damaged then multiply as necessary for healing. Until recently, researchers have considered the Adult Stem Cell (which is normally stored in the bone morrow) interesting but of little value when it comes to repair of the body. The approach most were seeking was to obtain the embryonic stem cell, genetically program it to become whatever tissue was needed then grow them in vetro and eventually inject them into the patient. However, as early as 2000, researchers were finding out that the adult stem cell had the ability to differentiate into other cell types, including but not limited to bone, cartilage, muscle, brain, nervous, optical etc.
In concert with this new information, a researcher named Christian Drapeau who had been studying a product called AFA began to unlock the secrets of the adult stem cell. In turn, this led to the development of a patented product called StemEnhance, a natural nutritional product containing concentrations of two key ingredients of AFA. One component causes an increase of adult stem cells in circulation while the other encourages them to travel to any area needing repair, thus allowing the body to help itself naturally. StemEnhance is produced and marketed by StemTech HealthSciences Inc.
As with any new concept this revolutionary and far reaching, there will be those who will cast doubt, criticize, distort the facts and even attempt to interject scare tactics in an attempt to discourage potential users of the product. I would expect those most likely to travel this path will be those who feel they have something to loose - especially financially. At this point I would like to inject one of my favorite quotes, "Contempt prior to investigation usually makes a fool of someone".
