Now, there is a new way of obtaining optimal health using stem cells. But yet very little available knowledge of stem cells has reached the general population - or even the health profession - in a manner that allows the public to clearly understand the basics as well as the tremendous promise of stem cell research. However much interest has shown and debates among President, Congressmen, Scientists, Politicians and general public regarding this scientific research funding issue.
Lets find out what are stem cells :

Stem cells are cells that which distinguished
by their ability to differentiate into many types
of cells in the body and to self-replicate
indefinitely. Their very nature has intrigued
scientists who foresee a day when stem cells
could be used to replace diseased and
injured tissue in patients.

As stated by their capability, stem cells are
responsible for the repair and rejuvenation of
the body.
Generally speaking, Stem Cells can be
differentiated into 2 sources ; Embryonic
Stem Cells ( E.S.C ) & Adult Stem Cells
( A.S.C )
responsible for the repair and rejuvenation of
the body.
Generally speaking, Stem Cells can be

( A.S.C )
Embryonic Stem Cells ( E.S.C )
Embryonic stem cells are derived from the
inner cell mass of the blastula or blastocyst,
the very early state of embryo. In, nature ESC
are short-lived in a sense that they only exist i
in the early embryo. As ESC develop, they
gradually lose their pluripotency ( ability of the
cell to differentiate ) as they become the
various specialized cells in the developing
foetus.
In vitro, cultured ESC can be maintained and
can be proliferate for many generations. In
Stem cell therapy, ESC are injected into the
patient's blood stream and it will circulate until
it reaches the area needed of repair. These
treatments are often expensive and are
unaffordable for the lower income groups
ranging from RM 10,000 to RM 30,000.
However, there is a moral debate going on as
the controversy of the sacrificial of one
potential life to save another.
Adult Stem Cells ( A.S.C )
Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can self-renew and differentiate into
specialized cells of various tissues. ASC are
predominately found in the bone marrow and
blood. The role of ASC is to maintain and
tissue regeneration.

Initially, scientist has lost the interest in the
therapeutic potential in Adult stem cells due
to difficulties to grow and culture them in vitro
compared to ESC. The traditional view was
that ASC certainly have some level
"stemness", as evidenced by the ability of
hematopoietic stem cells or blood ASC to
become red blood cells, lymphocytes (white
blood cells )and platelets.

Nevertheless, due to the work of many
scientific teams, they found out that ASC
have the same capabilities as ESC. Stem
Cells from baby's umbilical cord blood are
extracted and stored under liquid nitrogen (-
196 degree C) in the Stem Bank. These cells
are kept for future use.

Here's a video showing a brief explanation about the
general knowledge of stem cells.
If you've watched the video, you maybe noted
that stem cells will be science's greatest
weapon to assist in combat numerous
diseases. But their power still remain a
mystery lets put our fingers cross for more
exciting discoveries unveiling the power of
stem cells.

FAQ:-
(1) Is there cheaper alternative to gain
optimal health with stem cells besides
therapy?
Yes, there is. And the alternative is as potent
as stem cell therapy and the good news is, its
affordable by everyone. STEMtech AFA-
extract is the world's first stem cell enhancer
that promotes your own bone marrow to
release adult stem cells naturally.
(2) If this adult stem cell is so great that have
the ability to become virtually any type cell,
why are there still so many lying in the
hospital bed and falling sick with chronic
health problem and illnesses?
Research has shown as we aged by the months and years, our bone marrow is not able to support and release enough stem cell for various reasons with our aging process and deteriorating body system due to lifestyle that's under stress (physical, emotional, worries, anxiety, environmental etc), poor diet that is taking it's toll on your body, causing adecline in your body's circulatory system ability to renew itself.
Study has shown and scientifically
proven (reported in the CRT - Cardiovascular
Revascularization Medicine Journal - a highly
respected medical journal), with Stem Cell
Enhancer, it helps and support your
own bone marrow to release these stem
cells, also known as the "master cell" which
has the ability to become virtually any type of
cells; heart cells, liver cells, pancreatic cells,
liver cells, muscle cells, brain cells, tissue
cells, even cells in the eyes, joints etc. for you
and me to maintain optimal health.
