Do stem cells (MSC’s) have a role in the overall repair of the body on a day to day basis.

We are born with a set number of stem cells. As we age the number decreases and the repair of tissue from everyday wear and tear becomes less efficient. This is why we heal so fast and effectively when we are young and why it seems to take longer the older we get. One of MSC’s role in bodily repair is to extinguish inflammatory events. Research has proven that the more we support our own stem cells by introducing more stem cells to our circulation, we effectively can turn back our aging clock. Therefore the use of allograph cells like umbilical cord MSC’s can address some aging at its core. When used to treat a damaged tissue like cartilage it can truly turn back the clock of the aging of that damaged tissue. More to come…
