Every day we undergo several activities and bodily changes that change our brain. Whether we like it or not, we are subjected to constant stress and despite our best efforts, the world we are living in right now is hardly an ideal place for brain stimulation. As a result, we damage and affect our brains through various activities. Skipping breakfast, air pollution, smoking and drinking too much alcohol are just some of the activities that create problems for the brain. Not to mention the fact that we are subjected to emotional stress that causes our brain activity levels to decline.

If not given proper care and attention, we can suffer from various illnesses and this includes traumatic brain injury. People who suffer from traumatic brain injury fail to operate in a normal mode, and their brain function is affected. The physical, cognitive and emotional ability of the brain is hindered leading to inflammation, neurodegenerative lesions, loss of tissue structure and destruction of neuronal cells. In the past, medical researchers do not have a cure for injuries that occur in the brain, because we are not yet equipped to analyze what is going on inside. But thanks to advance technology we now have the ability to study the brain up close and offer a number of solutions that can treat the problem.

Powerful Effects of Stem Cell-Based Therapies in the Brain

Brain injuries like stroke, Alzheimer’s disease create a decreased quality of life. Those who suffer from it need assistance, and achieving recovery is almost nonexistent for some until stem cell-based therapies came into the picture. Stem cell-based approaches are becoming immensely popular for clinical applications because of the great promise that it holds. The idea is to replace damaged neural tissues and supply a fresh batch of stem cells to reinvigorate the injured part of the brain.

If left untreated brain injuries continue to create symptoms that include epileptic seizures as well as many other secondary disturbances like cognitive and memory problems that arise due to brain lesions.

There is a growing interested in stem cell-based therapies particularly the use of Mesenchymal stem cells that could be isolated from the bone marrow, the basis of belief in this type of cure is the ability of mesenchymal stem cells to regeneration or promote regeneration in damaged tissues and replacing lost cells to speed up the healing of the brain.

One clinical study, featured by Frontiersin.org involves seven patients who were transplanted with Mesenchymal stem cells during a craniocerebral surgery. Surgeons injected Mesenchymal stem cells directly to the injured brain tissue, and after 6 months doctors began to notice improvements in the neurological function of the patient.

Best of all, there is no toxicity level found and no signs of side effects after the procedure was done increasing the hope in stem cell-based therapies to help cure traumatic brain injuries. There are regular clinical studies being done in the United States with patients with brain injury and trauma and mesenchymal stem cells are often injected in the affected part and this leads to an improvement in the patient’s neurological function. No death or adverse effects have occurred.

Mesenchymal stem cells and Induced pluripotent stem cells were the first ones that clinical researchers have observed and have made significant progress. These types of cells can be easily extracted to patients and then reprogrammed leading to zero ethical problems and immune rejection. These cells both have the ability to self renew and differentiate into various types of cells making them flexible for clinical applications. One of the diseases that has gained significant progress results with the aid of Stem cell-based therapies is Huntington’s disease.

Stem Cell Therapy and How it Makes the Brain Happy

The body contains stem cells that need to be updated like a supercomputer. As we grow older our mind and body function declines, and if we do not input new information and if we do not have a fresh supply of stem cells we go into auto-decline. Unfortunately, our stem cells die faster and have a longer processing time before it becomes replenished.

When this happens we suffer from a range of diseases that affect parts of our body including the brain. Many scientists and medical researchers now believe that stem cell therapy is the way to go. The idea is for the fresh batch of stem cells to be injected back into the body through methods like stem cell infusion. Stem cell injections and stem cell infusions work like a brain and body upgrade and when used effectively could be an effective tool against mental disorders like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression.

There are studies that the antidepressants we are using right now in clinics including drugs cause side effects and divide the stem cells in the brain. These stem cells that are damaged by antidepressants and drugs are the ones responsible for decreasing depression by making more neuron connections in the brain. A stem cell expert named Hongjun Song a professor of neurology and neuroscience and the one directing the Stem Cell Program in the Institute for Cell Engineering has been vocal about the good effects of stem cells in the brain.

According to their clinical studies, there is a basis for the belief that slowly dividing stem cells cause depression and other mental disorders. Specific genetic changes in people with schizophrenia slow down the speed at which stem cells divide slowing down their ability to create new neurons. This is the reason why there is a need for a fresh batch of stem cells to be injected back into the brain so that it could be stimulated to produce more neurons.

Stem cell experts are now finding ways to use stem cells to boost and improve the brain. To find the connection between depression and anxiety and the levels of stem cells that a person has. The ongoing clinical research by stem cell clinics aims to find the active participation of stem cells in helping improve the human brain. Prozac and other antidepressants still contain a lot of side effects and do not work for everyone, which is why stem cell clinics are interested to understand the connection of stem cell therapy to help cure depression and other psychological disorders.

Living Proof of the Power of Stem Cells

Most people at age 72 retire and become grumpy, have less interest do to their hobbies and hardly have the energy to follow their dreams due to recurring muscle and bodily pains. Too many people, aging is a dread, something to be scared about, due to the many limitations it creates. But not for Lourdes Duque Baron.

Because of the powerful anti-aging treatment that is coursing through her veins, she is able to stand out. Stem cell therapy allows Lou Baron to remain active, and full of life. She is able to focus and complete various projects including award-winning film Tombstone Pillow. Not only that she is also an International Author of two best-selling books ” Scripted in Heaven” and ” I Called Myself Cassandra”.

A fresh batch of stem cells is injected through her veins and this is what regenerates her entire system. Stem cell-based therapies that she is receiving from the world-class clinic Feeling Good At Any Age The One-Stop Rejuvenation Center in California allow her to live as a superhuman being.

FGAAA is offering an advanced form of anti-aging treatment that provides rejuvenation for the body. Patients who receive rejuvenation therapy from the clinic receive numerous benefits including:

  • Reduced fatigue and tiredness
  • Reduced aged spots, fewer lines, and wrinkles
  • Youthful appearance and better skin tone
  • Boost in energy, stamina, and vitality
  • Relief from back pain, aches, and pains including stiffness of joints
  • Boost in sexual prowess and libido
  • Easier weight maintenance
  • Feelings of happiness and mental clarity
  • Better and healthier outlook in life
  • Agility and better stamina that aids exercise activities

Anti-aging effects are one of the many benefits of stem cell therapy. A person injected with fresh stem cells, experience better blood flow, it also helps the skin rejuvenate from within leading to increased collagen and younger-looking skin.

Lourdes Duque Baron is a living proof that stem cell therapy works! It has allowed her to have a super-powerful existence. Stem cells are a gift from the Lord that continuously enables her to continue inspiring and amazing projects.

Only recently she has landed the cover of Hollywood Monthly. She was inspired by her personal experience on stem cell therapy and created the book New Breed of Homo Sapiens.

Her book deviates from scientific discourse and was written in a clear, easy to understand language so that the message and power of stem cells would be understood by everyone.

Lou Baron’s third book New Breed of Homo Sapiens is a textbook made easy and written in Friendly Language for people who want to get the best out of Stem Cell-Based Therapies.

Listen to Her Amazing voice at age 72! All because of Stem Cell Therapy!
