The Risks Associated with Stem Cell Injections
1:26:43 - 1:35:43 (09:00)
Injecting stem cells into damaged tissues may seem like a miracle cure, but it should be approached with caution due to the cells' tendency to become various kinds of tissue, including tumors. The need for careful molecular restriction is similar to the issues faced in acupuncture research, where sham control was used to avoid false positive results.

Summary
Stem cells have the potential to become different types of tissues, but extreme caution is needed when using them in medical applications to prevent them from becoming tumor cells. However, transfusions of young rodent blood into old demented rodents have shown positive memory and energy effects.

The science is investigating what factors in the young brain and body allow for better recovery from injury compared to the older brain, body and blood, and seeks to identify the factors that limit the older brain in restoring cognitive and physical function, wound healing and more.

Summary
The science is investigating what factors in the young brain and body allow for better recovery from injury compared to the older brain, body and blood, and seeks to identify the factors that limit the older brain in restoring cognitive and physical function, wound healing and more. Blood transfusions from young people to old people may not be a definitive solution for treating dementia, but they remain a possibility to study.
