Support Adult Stem Cells through Nutrition

By Andrea Rousseau

There has been a lot of controversey over stem cell research over the past eight to ten years, and rightly so. The controversy surrounds the use of Embryonic stem cell research. This method requires that cells be removed from a five day old embryo, known as a blastocyst. The living embryo is destroyed through this procedure, thus the moral objection.

Embryos are not used in Adult Stem Cell research. Adult stem cells can be harvested from bone marrow, blood stream, liver, and skin, to name a few sources. Adult stem cells will play an ever increasing and important role in the battle against disease and injury.

Researchers have proven that stem cells, somewhat inactive cells, can respond quickly to tissue injury and stress. They are a renewable source of replacement cells to treat disabilities, conditions, and diseases. [Neostem.com]

Adult stem cells are quite resilient, and have the ability to "morph" into other kinds of cells. Studies have affirmed the phenomenon know as "plasticity." In other words, adult stem cells have the ability to differentiate into other cell types such as heart cells or nerve cells.[Life Extension, Oct 2007] For this reason, your own adult stem cells are the key to your own treatment.

The key to maintaining your health and preventing disease then is to provide powerful nutrition at the cellular level. Stimulating the healthy growth of stem cells is a very important part of anti-aging programs.

Researchers have conducted studies that show there is a direct relationship between higher servings of blueberry, green tea, carnosin, catechin, and vitamin D3 and the proliferation of human bone marrow. Studies have also shown that Resveratrol has a positive effect on stem cell health.[Life Extension, Oct 2007]

One of the superfoods that can give you a great foundation for cellular health are blueberries. They are among the most nutritious foods, with very high antioxidant activeity and anti-inflamatory properties.

Amla is an extremely nutritious fruit with the richest natural source of vitamin C, and protects cells from free radical damage. Acai is rich in Omega fats and is a great source of vitamins and minerals. - 17268
