It    shows a lot of promise and potential in treating diseases. Stem    cell therapy is an intervention strategy where new adult stem    cells are introduced into damaged or diseased tissues, in order    to treat the disease or injury.  <\/p>\n<p>    These cells are present during the early stages of life and    have the remarkable potential to develop into many different    types of cells, and in many tissues, they serve as an internal    repair system: they divide to replace and replenish cells that    have been diseased.  <\/p>\n<p>    Research directed to the benefits and usefulness of stem cells,    when introduced to a given person with a given injury or    illness like the Big C, Diabetes, baldness, leukemia, to name a    few, has given rise to clinics and centers offering such    services. There are just a few facts that I would like to touch    before we get too excited to try it out:  <\/p>\n<p>    Our body use different types of tissue-specific stem cells to    fit a particular purpose. The bone marrow for example has the    capacity to regenerate the blood cells.  <\/p>\n<p>    Stem cells directed to the brain or the pancreas or liver or    any organ for that matter must be specific to that organ in    order for it to become effective. It is very unlikely then to    think that one needs JUST A SINGLE CELL TYPE to treat a    multitude of unrelated diseases that involve different tissues    or organs.  <\/p>\n<p>    Once we understand this basic principle of how the stem cells    work in the body, we are freed from the incorrect idea that    stem cell therapy is a CURE ALL treatment modality.  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>More here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sunstar.com.ph\/cagayan-de-oro\/lifestyle\/2013\/08\/21\/understanding-basics-stem-cell-therapy-first-part-298978\" title=\"Understanding the basics of stem cell therapy (First Part)\">Understanding the basics of stem cell therapy (First Part)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> HUMAN nature has it that when there is something new, be it related to food, enhancements to ones appearance, and even in ones search for answers and treatments to an illness, one may be most willing to brave and enter that unknown territory.
