Immediate End to Ebryonic Stem Cell Research called for by American College of Pediatricians.  Dr. Cretella stated in an interview that human embryonic stem cell research takes human lives and “prolongs needless suffering by delaying the development of more promising adult stem cell treatments and cures.”

“Every dollar spent on the failed and unnecesary process of embryonic stem cell research steals resources away from the established utility and potential of adult stem cell research.  This is fiscally irresponsible and medically unconscionable.”  So says Dr. Michelle Cretella, a Fellow of the American College of Pediatricians.

Adult Stem Cells are discovered in human breast milk by Australian scientist Dr.Mark Cregan while investigating the importance of human breast milk and its effect on infant health.  This finding could eliminate the embryonic stem cell controversy of harvesting stem cells from frozen emmbryos for scientific research.  Adult stem cells have already been proven to be more effective in restoring health in 73 different conditions where embryonic have not had one success yet to date.

Another discovery that is proving to be valuable in helping the finances of young mothers who would like to be a WAHM, work at home mom, is a new patented product that is a 5:1 concentration of an extract of an organic wild harvested blue green algae, Aphanizomenon flos aquae.  A  single 1 gram serving of AFA concentrate has been shown to cause the body to duplicate and release 3-4 million new adult stem cells within an hour of consumption.  The company that holds the patent on this new wellness breakthrough product has a program to help women that desire to be work at home moms to earn extra income while building a substantial residual income with the  time freedom to nurse.


In May 2009, a new patented adult stem cell enhancement product containing a 5:1 concentration of  a fresh water algae Aphanizomenon flos aquae AFA from Klamath Lake Oregon USA became available to individuals living in Colombia.  Colombians today can now order product and have it shipped directly to their home. 

The introduction of this new product has created a very lucrative home based business opportunity for individuals that would desire to make some extra income.   This new product is the first of its kind in the category of stem cell enhancers and has the effect of causing the body to duplicate and release 3-4 million new adult bone marrow stem cells within an hour of consuming 1 gram of a 5:1 concentration of Aphanizomenon flos aquae.


On July 18, 2009, a new patented product containing a 5:1 concentration of  a fresh water algae Aphanizomenon flos aquae AFA from Klamath Lake Oregon USA became available in Germany.  Germans today can order product and have it shipped directly to their home. 

The introduction of this new product has created a very lucrative home based business opportunity for individuals that would desire to make some extra income.   This new product is the first of its kind in the category of stem cell enhancers and has the effect of causing the body to duplicate and release 3-4 million new adult bone marrow stem cells within an hour of consuming 1 gram of a 5:1 concentration of Aphanizomenon flos aquae.


Stem cell nutrition and enhancement is the new health frontier.  Individuals looking for alternatives to pharmaceuticals are discovering that Adult Stem Cells may hold the key to naturally promote wellness and rejuvenation regardless of age or what bad things have happened in the past. 

Scientists have discovered that people that have consumed large quantites of Aphanizomenon flos aquae, AFA for short, had some remarkable relief from conditions that affected their heart, liver, kidneys, brain, lungs, eyes and pancreas just to name a few.  Upon further investigation, scientists discovered the key compounds in this unique freshwater algae that actually promotes  bone health, adrenal function, liver function, cardiovascular function and just about any other body component that needs repair and rejuvenation through the effect of enhancing the adult bone marrow stem cells.


Scientists and researchers are taking normal adult cells and converting them to adult stem cells also know as induced pluripotent stem cells. Kind of like biting the snake that bites you, cells that form scars in the heart after a heart attack can be reprogrammed to repair the damage caused by the heart attack.

These induced pluripotent stem cells once converted from regular somatic cells can be used to repair any kind of injury and because they come directly form the injured host it eliminates the risk of rejection. Anti-rejection drugs would no longer be necessary either.

Advances in Stem Cell Research

Embryonic stem cell research has fostered a tumultuous moral debate, which has unfortunately the beneficial applications of other stem cells. Adult stem cells represent a bold new frontier in the war against disease. Researchers have taken a special interest in the profound regenerative abilities of stem cells. Just a few stem cells can replicate enough tissue to create an entirely new organ.

The revolutionary implications of stem cells are not limited to human medicine, however. Cherished family pets can get a new lease on life with special stem-cell infusion techniques. Stem cell research is a multibillion-dollar industry, and our general wellbeing depends on its success.


Many have probably heard the story of when a man regrows a finger with help of pig bladder extract.   I was amazed when I first saw the story.  After studying various reports I was able to deduce that apparently the experimental powder helps to attract adult stem cells to the injury site  and then encourages them to completely restore the missing tissue.

“The broad outline is pretty straightforward. The powder is mostly collagen and a variety of substances, without any pig cells”, said Badylak, who’s a scientific adviser to ACell. “It forms microscopic scaffolding for incoming human cells to occupy, and it emits chemical signals to encourage those cells to regenerate tissue,” he said.


DSCN9675A natural way of  increasing the size of a woman’s breast is by using a person’s own adult stem cells which are found throughout the body.  Using adult stem cells avoids the embryonic stem cell controversy and the potential of a teratoma.   Breast implants derived from adult stem cells are an exciting new development for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery because they have a more natural look and feel.

The process involves taking fat cells from the stomach or thighs which is used to extract adult stem cells.  These extracted adult stem cells are then mixed with the rest of the fat and periodically injected into the breast tissue to increase its volume.  The stem cells in the injected fat are thought to have a stimulating effect which brings in more blood flow enabling the new tissue of survive and stay healthy avoiding some of the common challenges of traditional implants such as rupturing, leakage, cysts and infections.


Embryonic stem cells (ESC) are in the news because of their ability to become virtually any cell type of the body has inspired promises and expectations.   There was even a ballot proposal in Michigan in 2008 to expand stem cell research.  Medical researchers and doctors are calling cell stem research the most exciting and revolutionary breakthrough development of the new millennium. But serious ethical issues–such as harvesting stem cells from frozen embryos–have encumbered and fuel the debate about the ethics of embryonic stem cell research.

Some medical scientists and researchers have found a way to avoid the ethical issues of harvesting stem cells from embryos by working with adult stem cells.  Although adult bone marrow stem cells are difficult to work with in the test tube, scientists and medical researchers have had over 73 different conditions result in successful outcomes vs 0 success using embryonic stem cells.
