Stem Cell Therapy For COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects 250 million people each year and is the cause of nearly 5% of deaths globally. This family of airway obstruction conditions is characterized by the loss of lung tissue and airway obstruction caused by chronic...
15 Superfoods and the Health Reasons to Eat Them
Superfoods are healthy meals that boost energy and protect the body from destructive pathogens and diseases. They are very nutritious, and when you take them moderately, you immunize the body and ensure its healthy growth. However, though these foods are essential for...
How Can Stem Cells Help Multiple Sclerosis?
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the protective sheath covering nerve fibers, known as the myelin. As a result, communication issues between the brain and other parts of the body occur. While there are currently...
Cranberry Juice: Are There Health Benefits?
Cranberry juice isn’t the most common beverage choice, but many people enjoy it due to its health benefits. The U.S. is the world’s leading cranberry producer, with Wisconsin having produced more than four and a half million barrels of the tart fruit in 2019. The...
Is It Possible to Regrow Cartilage in the Joints?
In adulthood, cartilage has almost no regenerative potential. Cartilage damaged by disease, injury, or simply as part of the aging process can therefore not be replaced by the body on its own. As a result, bones may eventually rub against one another, resulting in...
Advancing Stem Cell Treatment for Traumatic Brain Injury
According to the CDC, in 2019, traumatic brain injury (TBI) contributed to nearly 61,000 deaths in the United States alone[1]. While there are several clinical treatments designed to address the neurological dysfunction after sustaining a TBI, including hyperbaric...
Seven Tips for Detoxing Each Day
Detoxing has gained plenty of attention in recent years. Based on the principle of reducing your exposure to toxins, this practice aims to promote general wellness, help optimize the immune system, and increase energy levels. There are many ways to detox, some of...
How is Stem Cell Therapy Helping ALS Patients?
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a rare disease in which the body’s neurons that control voluntary muscles begin to degenerate. Patients experience muscle weakening and involuntary spasticity, as well as symptoms such as...
Using Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Musculoskeletal Regeneration in Clinical Applications: Current Status and Perspectives
Research exploring the benefits of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has demonstrated tremendous potential as a regenerative therapy option for the musculoskeletal system. Research into these cell-based regenerative therapies is promising, and they must continue to...
High Blood Pressure Education Month: What to Know About Preventing or Controlling Hypertension
According to the CDC, nearly one in three U.S. adults is living with hypertension, but just about half of them are controlling it effectively. Also known as high blood pressure, hypertension can be dangerous. It increases the force against the artery walls, and over...
Can Stem Cells Regrow Brain Tissue?
In neurodegenerative conditions and cases of brain damage such as traumatic brain injury (TBI), the goal of treatment is usually to manage symptoms and prevent or slow the rate of further damage. Yet, ongoing research suggests stem cells could play an important role...
Using Mesenchymal Stem Cells As A Therapeutic Strategy for Neurodegenerative Diseases
Neurodegenerative disease is a broad term encompassing a number of chronic, progressive diseases that result in degeneration and or death of neurons; these diseases include Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and...
