Adult Stem Cells – An Exciting New Paradigm in Health

Nov. 13, 2009 - PRLog -- The discovery that Bone Marrow Stem Cells constitute the natural renewal system of the body has paved the way to a new paradigm in health and wellness.  In fact, a number of recent studies have shown that a greater number of circulating adult stem cells equated to greater cardiovascular and over all better health.

StemTech Health Sciences, Inc., a pioneer in development and marketing, introduced the first natural dietary supplement proven to support the release of adult stem cells into circulation. This ground breaking discovery started as a theory in the mind of research scientist Christian Drapeau MSc.

After accumulating many years of experience observing the health benefits which came from the aqua-botanical Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, (AFA) he began intensive research, along with his colleague Dr. Gitte Jensen. This research led to a very intriguing theory involving adult stem cell physiology and how isolated extracts of the aqua-botanical AFA, seemed to support and enhance the natural behavior of adult stem cells in the body.

Enter “adult stem cell enhancers” a powerful new category of nutritional supplements. Introduced in 2005, StemEnhance® is the World’s first and only clinically proven adult stem cell enhancer on the market. StemEnhance® is a patented concentrate of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA). The results are impressive to say the least.

As shown in a double-blind placebo controlled crossover study published in the highly respected peer-reviewed journal, Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine (Aug-Sept 2007), taking just 2 capsules of StemEnhance® supports an average 25% increase in the number of naturally released adult stem cells.

That is equivalent to about 3 to 4 million new adult stem cells in circulation – making StemEnhance® one of the greatest wellness discoveries of our time!

How can such a discovery have been so long in coming?  Thanks to the discovery of a spontaneously fluorescent protein called green fluorescent protein (GFP) which was isolated from the deep ocean jelly fish Aequoria victoria.  Since GFP is a protein, it is possible to derive the DNA responsible for its production and to incorporate the GFP-gene in the nucleus of a stem cell.  In such a case, all the cells derived from the original fluorescent stem cell will be fluorescent.  The discovery of GFP is of such importance that the scientists responsible for the discovery were actually awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry.

Thanks to the discovery of GFP, adult stem cells from the bone marrow have been shown to have the ability to naturally become, but not limited to, cells of the liver, muscle, retina, kidney, pancreas, lung, skin, and even the brain.

Current scientific studies show:

-Mobilization of bone marrow stem cells with StemEnhance® improves    muscle regeneration in cardiotoxin-induced muscle injury.

-StemEnhance® improves physical performance of weight training in non-professional participants.

-Increase in the number of circulating stem cells by StemEnhance® does not promote tumor growth.

-Daily consumption of StemEnhance® helps reduce hair graying.

These studies have enormous implications because through the body’s natural mechanisms, stem cells circulate to areas where they are needed to support the natural renewal process. By giving rise to an increase in circulating adult stem cells, StemEnhance® supports the body’s natural ability to rebuild, renew, and rejuvenate.

The implications are significant - StemEnhance®, when used as a daily supplement, supports the release of millions of additional adult stem cells in the bloodstream which is one of the most important ways for maintaining optimal health that science has yet discovered!
