Stem Cells - Not Just Curing Paralysis
| Can placenta implants help cure breast cancer. According to recent cases, the answer appears to be yes.
One patient, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer, a stomach tumor and arthritis, began feeling better after her first treatment. She received a second set of implants after six months. She had a mammogram done about three or four months after the second implant and found that she was cancer free. Another patient (age 74), has been getting placenta implants twice a year since her diagnosis of breast cancer at age 64. She’s reporting that she’s had no colds or flu for the same 10 years or more and has lots of energy at the end of a full work day. It’s known that about 5-10% of breast cancers are caused by gene mutations inherited from one’s mother or father. Women with these mutations have up to an 80% risk of developing breast cancer during their lifetime, and are often diagnosed before age 50. However, about 90% of breast cancers are not attributed to a family history, but to the aging process and life in general causing these genetic abnormalities. Even though stem cell treatment is at an early stage in breast cancer treatment, Karan Goel, chairman of Stem Cell Global Foundation is working on creating awareness about the technology. In 2008, an estimated 182,460 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S., along with 67,770 new cases of non-invasive (in situ) breast cancer. About 20-30% of these cases will be in woman with a family history of breast cancer. For more information, contact: |
