Adult stem cells, according to the latest science, play a key role in and can make a big difference to, your health.
Recent studies have shown that stem cell therapy can help with the management of autoimmune disorders; genetic disorders; cancer; diabetes; and even brain injury.
How long can we live potentially? It looks very possible as scientific date emerges as to the role of anti-oxidants, stem cells and nutrition in general, that a sensible address of these issues and some overall improvements in lifestyle through healthy choices, that average life expectancy can reach 120.
Adult stem cells should not be confused with embryonic stem cells. They are two different things and while controversy still rages around the latter, none rages around the former, which are produced naturally by our bodies.
Adult stem cells are the basic "blank" cells that can divide to produce various specialized cells as they are needed by the body. Thus they play a key role in repair and regeneration of the body and we have a vested interest in fostering their good health.
Stem cells then are the basic building blocks of the cell colonies from which our bodies are made. They are formed at conception and divide and change as they do so into more specialized cells, becoming the different tissues of our body: nerves, organs, muscles, bones, blood, and so forth.
The body maintains a stem cell reserve and that reserve is tapped so as to affect repairs and the replacement of injured tissues. But the reserve can become depleted, the stem cells become inhibited by free radicals and so on, and as this occurs, the regenerative power of the body decreases and we suffer disease and aging.
However, there ARE things you can do to enhance and protect your own stem cell production and here are a few:
Eat fresh, preferably organic, foods as these are more acceptable to and kinder on the body and do not prompt the production of free radicals which are the cause of the oxidative stress that causes degeneration of the tissues and premature aging.
Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. A basic rule of thumb is that if a food has a color, it is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals.
Get sufficient sleep. Much of the body’s repair work occurs during periods while you are "offline" so to speak, asleep or resting. Chronic insufficient sleep can be a major contributor to premature.
Drink green tea as your beverage of choice as it is rich in antioxidants.
Supplement wild blue green algae. There is a free book available on Freedom Plaza that will explain the remarkable benefits of wild blue-green algae in relation to anti-aging and many other health issues.
It is entirely possible that some of the people reading this may live to be 120.
