Are Adult Stem Cells the Prescription for Ultimate Health? " The Coming Revolution in Stem Cells Could Save Your Life " - Time Magazine cover story Just the Facts from the Leading Voice of Adult Stem Cell Science When Christian Drapeau first posited that Adult Stem Cells were the very foundation of the body's natural healing system, scientific study in the field was in its infancy. His hypothesis that Adult Stem Cells, created by the bone marrow, flowed to any tissue or organ needing regeneration and morphed into healthy cells of that location, was initially ridiculed by medical science. However, recent studies and a Nobel Prize winning discovery affirm Christian's position which has gained not just momentum but widespread acceptance in scientific circles as study after study reveal that Adult Stem Cell science holds phenomenal promise in all areas of human wellness. In Cracking the Stem Cell Code , author and scientist Christian Drapeau demystifies the most important scientific breakthrough of our times. He reveals the far reaching potential of adult stem cells in human health and wellness. Christian explains the stem cell phenomenon in the reader-friendly manner that made his prior book, The Stem Cell Theory of Renewal , a major hit with tens of thousands of eager readers. Adult Stem Cells hold the promise of miraculous wellness - Cracking the Stem Cell Code explains how. For the average reader interested in gaining greater understanding of the stem cell phenomenon.
Given the hype and high expectations one reads about in the news about the potential of stem cell therapy, this book is a good grounding in the reality of the current state of this particular branch of medical science.
The author is one of the leading stem cell scientists, and he has provided a book that is comprehensible by the non-medically trained person. Even though there are, of necessity, many medical terms, these are defined and explained and kept to an absolute minimum.
It turns out, as usual, that life is much more complex than exuberant news articles would have us believe, and avenues of treatment what once seemed quite hopeful have been found to be fraught with complications.
The main point of the book, I think, is that embryonic stem cells are not as attractive as their proponents claim they are, and that our own stem cells within our own bodies may be the best hope for treating a number of degenerative diseases. This, of course, would make all the ethical, moral, and religious debate surrounding the harvesting of embryonic stem cells moot, and it would alleviate many complications that arise from the injection of foreign biological matter into one's body.
This book isn't for everyone, but if you are interested in the current state of the art, or if you have heard about the possibility of stem cell treatment for a condition you may suffer from, then this book may prove to be quite useful to you.
I really like this book for people new to stem cell research. If you’ve seen Drapeau’s YouTube’s, you’ll recognize his writing style right away. Too much of this research is often technical, and the other half isn’t technical enough in my opinion. This book strikes a nice balance, explains quite a bit about how stem cells work in a variety of applications, and most importantly, how you can apply that knowledge for unique applications. Well worth the read.
