Adult Stem Cells Have Ability
to Develop and Replicate Like Embryonic Stem Cells
Creators of First Natural Dietary Supplement, StemEnhance,
Say Adult Stem Cells Could Be Answer to Enhance Lives of Millions
of People Worldwide
SAN CLEMENTE, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 10, 2006 -- Many
stem cell specialists agree that adult stem cells are a vital area
of research, often underappreciated by the public, and could hold
the secret to helping the body maintain optimal health.
According to Christian Drapeau, MSc, Chief Science Officer, StemTech
HealthSciences, Inc., there has been a wealth of scientific papers
published over the last few years proving that adult stem cells
have virtually the same qualities as embryonic stem cells. While
human embryos were once thought to be the only source of these "super
cells" that could regenerate a wide range of human tissue, this
recent research has proven that adult stem cells have the same ability
to develop and replicate in a wide variety of forms, a property
known to health science as pluripotency.
"As a nation, we're involved in this 'false' debate as to whether
we can use embryonic stem cells," said Drapeau. "The public should
put this entire debate aside and shift its focus to adult stem cells."
Drapeau said he agrees with the opinion
of Dr. David A. Prentice, Ph.D., Senior Fellow for Life Sciences,
Family Research Council Affiliated Scholar, Center for Clinical
Bioethics, Georgetown University Medical Center, stating that "supporting
the release of your own cells is the easiest, safest and most efficient
way of using stem cells."
StemTech HealthSciences, Inc., a pioneer in nutraceutical development
and marketing, is the creator of StemEnhance,
the first natural dietary supplement proven to support adult stem
cell circulation. StemEnhance has been shown to support and increase
naturally occurring adult stem cell release from bone marrow.
In human beings, adult stem cells are most abundantly found in
bone marrow from birth onward. However, over a lifetime, there is
evidence that in some people, the number and quality of these cells
circulating through the body gradually decreases. This may make
these people more susceptible to age-related health challenges.
StemTech's product boasts a patented blend of extracts from a widely
consumed aquatic botanical and it can actually support the release
of these cells, improving the body's ability to maintain optimal
health. With StemEnhance, individuals can help to slow the age-related
decline of normal processes like stem cell release and cell repair.
One key advantage of utilizing adult stem cells, said Drapeau,
is that they are not foreign to the body and are not as immature
as embryonic stem cells, thus thwarting the problems of immune rejection
and possible tumor formation. "Our product supports the natural
release of adult stem cells from the bone marrow, optimizing tissue
and organ function in the body," he said. "The body is an amazing
creation, if you simply help it to work at optimal levels, it will
facilitate wellness on its own."
