Ethical debates about all types of stem cells include the confusion of embryonic stem cells with adult stem cells. In reality, with adult stem cell therapy, the patient's own blood can be used to generate stem cells that repair the damage wrought by heart disease and peripheral artery disease.

Yes, they are all fruits. But what else do they have in common? Well, in the span of three days, three different studies have come out - each study touting the potential of slowing heart disease by eating a particular fruit. Today, I offer you a brief summary of each:Grapes- the University of Michigan came out with a study that showed that rats who ate grape powder had lower cardiovascular

The story about the young boy from Israel who was suffering from Ataxia and had fetal stem cells implanted into him at a stem cell facility in Russia has made the headlines recently so I wanted to touch on that. First, let me summarize the story (you can find it here). The boy was suffering from ataxia-telangiectasia, a rare incurable disease that affects 3 in 1,000,000 people. It also normally

Regardless of what health policy around the use of adult stem cells for medical treatment exists in your country, this life saving treatment is available to you by flying to Bangkok, Thailand to receive the effective treatment).

Vitamin D has been getting a lot of run in the media recently and for good reason. According to the Vitamin D Council-low levels of Vitamin D have been linked to 17 different types of cancer as well as heart disease, stroke, hypertension, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, depression, chronic pain, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, muscle wasting, birth defects, periodontal disease, and

Reverend Mike Rumble, a dilated cardiomyopathy patient with congestive heart failure from Florida who was treated by VesCell adult stem cells is reporting more improvement in his ejection fraction in his latest test results. I first featured Mike in December, 2008. His ejection fraction had gone up from 10% before VesCell stem cell therapy to 25% approximately 7-8 months after the stem cell

Jim Cook was facing the heart transplant waiting list after having his fifth stent, but he decided to try VesCell adult stem cell therapy, using his own stem cells, and was pleased with the treatment he received at a hospital in Thailand.

Many of our adult stem cell therapy patients are scared to come to Thailand. I am not quite sure the reasoning behind this and I'm sure the reasons vary from person to person. However, after speaking to our heart disease patients before they arrive, they seem to think that Thailand is a third world country with sub par medical facilities. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. And

The American Stem Cell Therapy Association has been formed in response to the FDA's position that a patient's own Adult Stem Cells are drugs. The group has been formed by US doctors who believe that standards and regulations should be applied by responsible doctors rather than the FDA. The goal of this group is to bring the use of a patient's own stem cells (proven safe in hundreds of studies)

VesCell adult stem cell research has proven that a patient's heart health can be restored via a natural healing process, by which the patient's own stem cells help improve heart muscle health aspects.

The University of Wisconsin just put out a press release celebrating the 10 year anniversary of Dr. James Thompson's published paper titled "Embryonic Stem Cell Lines Derived from Human Blastocysts" which according to the press release "rocked biology - and the world - as the all-purpose stem cell and its possibilities were ushered into the limelight." The feat was hailed as a remarkable

Last week, we at Theravitae received the sad news that David Foege, a member of Theravitae's Board of Directors passed away at the age of 63. David was not only a member of our board, he was one of our heart disease patients coming for Vescell stem cell therapy 3 times. In fact, that is the reason he was chosen to be a member of the board- he represented the patient's voice. He swore each

Three patients, who had run out of treatment options for their heart failure conditions, discuss the quick and dramatic recovery in health and quality of life they've experienced after undergoing VesCell adult stem cell treatment.

Although Breast Cancer always rules the women's health spotlight in the media, women are much more likely to die of heart disease than breast cancer. What people typically aren't aware of is that twice as many women die from heart disease than die from all cancers combined! In Ireland, a survey of almost 1000 people were done. The results said that most men and women thought that breast cancer

Reverend Mike Rumble, the Dilated Cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure patient who improved his heart function and quality of life after the Vescell Adult Stem Cell therapy, is now celebrating his "1 Year Stem Cell Treatment Anniversary." We last featured Mike in March showing that his ejection fraction had gone up from 10% before the stem cell treatment to 30% after the Adult Stem Cells

Diabetic and heart attack patient got better health after receiving adult stem cell treatment - longer exercise, increasing ejection fraction - with excellent hospital and staffs taking care of the patient.

Let me explain that as I know the title can be confusing. Claudia Castillo, a woman in Barcelona was suffering from Tuberculosis. The tuberculosis had made the tube connecting her windpipe (trachea)to collapse and it was slowly sinking into her lung. She was facing the removal of her lung. The trachea needed to be replaced.What to do? Grow a new trachea of course! Claudia has become the

I am happy to say that Vescell Adult Stem Cell treatment for heart disease has been prominently featured in a new article in Forbes Magazine. The entire article featured different stem cell companies around the world and how patients from the United States traveled to these stem cell treatment centers through "Medical Tourism" to find help for their particular disease. Here is the section from

A woman found relief from congestive heart failure through VesCell adult stem cell therapy. She shares her positive experience in this patient video.

Surgeons in Houston at The Methodist Hospital announced they were the first in the United States to inject Adult Stem Cells directly into the heart of patients "providing an intense, direct hit on damaged tissue." From the press releaseIn an investigational study of new heart failure treatments, this promising new technique may be more effective in regenerating healthy heart tissue than current
