Healthy stem cells were extracted from an area at the junction of the cornea and white part of the eye called the limbus, cultured on fibrous tissue then placed in a single layer on the damaged eye. Dr. Graziella Pellegrini of the University of Modena’s Centre for Regenerative Medicine and her team of researchers found that sight was restored using stem cells implanted in eyes of patients damaged by chemical burns.Over 80 patients which amounted to more that 75% of patients treated, regained their sight after undergoing the stem cell procedure. These findings were anounced by Dr. Pellegrini at the International Society for Stem Cell Research meeting in San Francisco. Opaque eyes were transformed into functioning organs, appearing normal as the cultured adult stem cells grew and became healthy corneal tissue

I just saw a similar article on the Bloomberg Business Week website that Ivan Schwab, an ophthalmology professor and stem cell researcher at the University of California, Davis, was praising Dr. Pellegrini’s work but that he was not getting the same long term success using the same procedure. Dr. Pellegrini admitted that “The most powerful part of her work and key to success is long-term follow-up and having enough of the right mix of stem cells that can differentiate to form the corneal tissue.”
The question that I have is do you think the patients would benefit by boosting their own adult stem cell release from the bone marrow using a natural dietary supplement that I have been taking called StemEnhance? I have been taking this 5:1 concentration of Aphanizomenon flos aqua now for over 2 months and am experiencing restoration in my 55 year old body that I never would have thought was possible. If it is doing that much for me why would it not help professor Schwab’s research subjects?
