Re: Stem cell therapy is a Scam on 60 minutes tonight

[Guest guest]

I did not see the show, but do not trust mainstream media. I would exclude stem cell therapy based on what 60 minutes has to say.

Basically Stem cell therapy is no where near developed enough to help, and manyof these crook's are trolling the web looking for parents of special needs children, CP, ASD,MS, ALS , etc....Stem cell therapy is still light years away, from being ready to help.There are NO studies any where in the world published of Stem cells healing any kindof disease, disorder, etc...If you miss the show, they will air more on CBS early morning show on MondayJan 9th

I am not saying it will not be a great thing in the future.

But there are a lot of people trying to sell it to special needs groups, ASD,

CP, MS, ALS

etc..

The feed back is the results are almost nothing from what I have read online;

the parents are getting lead to go back again and again. And there does not

seem to be any standards of care. No serious follow up.

You really need to have done a lot of prep work, clearing viruses and infections

before

doing Stem Cell therapy. Like PANDAS needs to be addressed first if you child

has this.

I read that DR Mc Candless took her Grand daughter who has autism, both had Stem

Cell therapy, in March 2011, but no improvments.

She is the DR who wrote the book, Starving brains - about autism years ago.

And my son as well, had 4 treatments, and we did tons of bio med prior to Stem

Cell

therapy. So I do feel much needs to be reviewed, and careful study on the best

practices.

Stem cells refers to many different things. When it comes to the

official stem cell surgery from humans (as opposed to stem cell plant

medicinals), there are many different ways to do it (the person's own

adipose tissue, or cord blood, or another donor's tissue, and even some

are done from embryos). We also have to consider that just like with

biomed or NIDS or homeopathy, the particular practitioner is very

important. The success stories I have heard about from parents on the

autism forums have been those who went out of the country. I can't

remember the name of it, but it is in either Central or South America.

There is a stem cell autism Yahoo Group that talks about it, but I

haven't read much of there posts yet. I have definitely heard very

mixed reviews about it. I don't think that stem cell surgeries should

be cast aside, but I do think that we are being taken advantage of all

the time in all kinds of ways, not just stem cell. So, we need to keep

using word-of-mouth, always taking in information from various sources

so that we can make successful decisions.

Did you use adipose stem cells?

I don't think we should write off all stem cell therapy based on what 60 Minutes

has to say about it. I think the issues mainly arise when a donor is used for

the transplant, but I believe there are definite improvements when using one's

own stem cells.

I'm a member of a Y! group that is dedicated to using autologous adipose (and

recently bone marrow) stem cell therapy to help " reboot " the body's immune

system by using liposuction to extract and propagate, then re-implant one's own

stem cells. They are also dedicated to making it affordable for families, with

their costs running about a third to half of what most places charge.

I haven't taken my son for the treatment yet, but I have seen many testimonies

from parents whose kids with autism and cerebral palsy have had improvements

ranging from very mild to dramatic, overnight successes. Everyone is different

and every child is unique in what will and will not work. Stem cell therapy is

probably not for everyone, but I don't think we can say it's years away from

being able to help people right now, because I've seen the testimonies of how it

is helping people right now.

Kind regards,

I found this information regarding immune system, Hypoxia and autism.

For Autism administration of mesenchymal as well as CD34+ stem cells. This

therapy is claimed to be able to treat abnormalities of either hypoxia or also

immune system.

If your child's autism is a result of tissue damage (hypoxic brain injury, gut

damage etc, whatever the cause), what this article is saying is that stem cell

therapy will help. Here is a good comparative analysis of the 3 different

sources of mesenchymal stem cells, including their frequency and effectiveness:

Another thing to consider is that sometimes the people who didn't get good

results stop talking about it so sometimes when you read online how great

something is you are only hearing part of the story or the positives. I know

people who did not see any benefits after stem cell treatment in DR. I know

people who did get gains from stem cells in China (not for autism). Embryonic

and fetal stem cells are different than umbilical cord and adipose as well.
