| Stem Cells (The Truth) By Stephen Ayers
The much publicized stem cell research debate focusing on moral
arguments is off target with the goal of real progress in the
direction of human physiological benefits potential. No matter
what side of this issue you come down on, practical
considerations ultimately trump this emotionally clouded
subject. Stem cells are a valuable renewing asset of human
physiology and thus are deserving of our intense interest, but
passionate disagreement about research and cloning issues miss
the mark of discovering just how simply we can use what we
already know about stem cells and how we can benefit from that
knowledge to improve the health of everyone. Right Wing News (Conservative News and Views):: His documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," hits theaters in May. . Get the word out: embryonic stem cells are the cold fusion of biology. http://www.rightwingnews.com/archives/week_2006_03_12.PHPHOME |
Let us start with the basics. Stem cells are produced in the
bone marrow of our bodies. They have the remarkable potential to
develop into many different cell types. Serving as a sort of
repair system for the body, they can theoretically divide
without limit to replenish other cells. When a stem cell
divides, each new cell has the potential to either remain a stem
cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized
function, such as a muscle cell or a red blood cell. Stem cells
have the ability to regenerate any other cell in the body. Thus
a stem cell can become a neuron, a liver cell, a brain cell, a
fingernail cell, or any other cell that needs to be replaced or
repaired. FIRST THINGS: On the Square » Blog Archive » Anderson: The Secret :: Anderson: The Secret of Embyronic Stem Cells. By Ryan T. Anderson. Friday, October 13, 2006, 10:09 AM. The truth about the technical challenges and http://www.firstthings.com/onthesquare/?p=498HOME |
Because recent progress has been made in the area of naturally
increasing the production of stem cells in the human body,
researchers mistakenly believe that the injection or the
artificial means of increasing the stem cell count in a person
is the pathway to curing diseases. This line of experimentation
has already shown to be a direct route to disaster. Implanting
stem cells in laboratory animals has created malignant tumors
and has otherwise resulted in various counterproductive effects
ranging from slow and costly to lethal. There is no substitute
for the body’s natural production of stem cells. This system has
been developed over eons as opposed to the recently generated
arrogance and stupidity of our thought processes that think this
marvel of human physiological engineering can be reproduced in a
laboratory. AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth:: McCain is again using Bud Day, a Swift Boat Veteran for Truth, .. We'll be discussing Degette's book, "Sex, Science and Stem Cells: Inside the right wing http://www.americablog.com/HOME |
Compare, if you will, the costs of helping the human body
naturally increase its stem cell output with artificial method
of harvesting and injecting stem cells into the body. The cost
of increasing your stem cell output naturally is about $50 to
$100 dollars. This method of increasing cellular function
through the addition of certain nutrients to your diet will
produce about 1 trillion stem cells in one week. No waiting for
the stem cells to activate. There is no risk of rejection
because these stem cells are produced from your own bone marrow.
There is no risk of these stem cells mutating into some hideous
malignancy because these stem cells did not come from somewhere
outside of your body. Contrast this with an injection of between
200 and a million stem cells from questionable sources for
between $15,000 and $250,000. Plus the fact that you will have
to wait for your immune system to recover from the transplant
and hope that enough of the transplanted stem cells survive the
attack of your own white blood cells to do any good. Let me
think while I contemplate budgetary constraints and health risk
factors. Nope, I think I’ll forgo the freakish laboratory
science experiments and choose the healthy natural way to stem
cell generation and recovery. Shall we rethink this thing called
stem cell research? As I think about this subject, I come up
with something like, “very interesting, but dumb!”
Research done on embryonic stem cells are obviously not going
to be the source of a cure for anything except the search for
some black hole in which to dump a lot of resources that can be
allocated to much wiser pursuits. It has been shown that the
safe, natural and effective increase of stem cells in the human
body can be achieved by the addition of certain nutrients to
your diet. Give your body the nutrients it needs to produce
trillions of stem cells on its own. Recent research shows that
adding these necessary ingredients to your daily food intake
will result in an increase in the stem cell count coming form
your own bone marrow stem cell production. This situation can
lead to the restoration of cell function throughout the body.
And it is important to consider that this can be achieved with
but a small fraction of the cost of such extravagant and risk
laden procedures as are mentioned above. The fact that safe and
effective increased stem cell production can be induced by
dietary supplementation is a common sense approach that needs to
be considered as a worthy course of action against the backdrop
of this rather bizarre public display of emotional outbursts,
hastily funded research, morally based arguments and
fantastically expensive therapies that we have been obsessed
with lately.
Our new understanding of how stimulating the development of
bone marrow stem cells, which have the capacity to develop into
any cell the body needs, has provided us with a scientific
understanding of how many different areas of the human body can
be maintained and repaired where our previous knowledge of such
benefits were thought not to be possible. Restorations in such
vital and complex areas as brain function with dietary
supplementation as the catalyst is an amazing discovery.
Imagine, if you will that people who have suffered the loss of
brain and central nervous system function due to strokes, trauma
or neurodegenerative disorders can heal and regain lost
abilities that previously physicians and scientists had regarded
as permanent and irreversible. That is the magic of the properly
supported human machine.
So, don’t hold your breath for embryonic stem cell research to
develop the cure for Alzheimers or anything else. That just
“ain’t goin’ ta’ happen’.” Help your body produce all of the
stem cells needed to maintain and repair itself with appropriate
nutritional support. Remember to move your body, eat well,
supplement wisely, drink plenty of pure, filtered, and enhanced
water and support your body’s natural ability to produce the
stem cells necessary to maintain and repair itself while it
continues to move you toward health and wellness.
