What is Regenerative Medicine? The Beaucell Approach based on the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine's perspective
Regenerative Medicine optimizes the body's own mechanisms of self-repair,
with added treatments and technologies. Adult stem cells appear to be our
most powerful tool at this time. Previous thinking concerning adult stem
cells taught that brain and heart tissue did not have stem cells and the
cells present at birth just declined in quantity and quality. It was also
believed that stem cells that form blood components - hematopoietic stem
cells (HSC) - in the bone marrow lacked plasticity and could not transform
to other tissues. Current medical literature proves that adult stem cells
exist in most tissues including brain, heart, muscles and liver. HSC and
endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in the bone marrow have plasticity to
potentially transform and repair all tissues and organs.
According to Drs. Goldman and Klatz, as quoted from Townsend Letter for
Doctors and Patients (December 2005), "Stem cell therapies are among the
world's greatest collective scientific breakthrough, possessing the clear
potential to revolutionize the practice of medicine and improve the quality
and length of life."
The National Institute of Health says that many diseases that affect the
nervous system hold the potential for being treated with stem cells. These
diverse disorders must be investigated within the contexts of their unique
disease processes and treated accordingly with highly adapted cell-based
approaches.
This proves that the modern, research-based, medical professional community
is looking towards cell based therapies to treat degenerative disorders.
It makes sense if cell degeneration lies at the heart of the disease process
itself, it will then require targeted therapy with agents that replenish
loss of tissue and function.
This is the rationale behind the Beaucell stem cell therapy program, which
focuses on the positive aspects of the action of mesenchymal and CD34+ umbilical
cord stem cells to perform their natural repair and regenerative function.

leaders in the field of anti-aging and beauty.
