This means they have the ability to trigger the growth of any healthy, specialized cell type needed. That is, our bodies have naturally occurring growth chemicals that program stemcells to integrate with the body’s existing cells… to produce specialized tissue, ligament, tendon, or cartilage as they repair damage in the targeted joint. Our stemcells are “first responders” in healing. This healing process begins when stem cells are transplanted and arrive (either through migration or direct injection) at the injured part of the body being targeted for tissue regeneration. Did we mention they regenerate cartilage? A study in 2008 proved that it is possible for stemcells to regrow cartilage in worn knees.** AS WE AGE As we age, the number of stem cells our body produces decreases. As a result, the body is unable to keep up with the demand for repairs. The hindrance of knee aches, hip discomfort, and arthritis pain are familiar notions of aging that people have come to think of as “just the way things are.” And they are justified in that notion, as there are over a million joint replacement surgeries each year are performed in the United States alone! America’s knees, hips, and shoulders ARE wearing out as we age. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE. >> 7 7
