A radical approach to therapies of the future

I came across this radical approach to therapy online and thought I'd blog about it. It is intersting that these medical researchers are suggesting that future therapies and cures to serious illensses could be in the stem cells. And where are these stem cells found in abundance: menstrual blood of women. Where did I find this bit of news, on one of the most popular news websites: CNNMoney

The newsreport online talks about today’s hectic lifestyle, where most women are juggling careers, family, relationships, and a host of activities and seem to have forgotten that they could possibly suffer from some form of serious illness. According to the article the key to treatment of a number of health maladies such as osteoporosis, heart ailments, paralysis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, may be found within the womnan's body - in vital stem cells.

And these people have found the best way to harvest the stem cells from a woman's own menstrual blood and store it for future use. How do they do it?. C'elle has developed a brand new technology to provide women with a safe and easy method of collecting and preserving stem cells found in her menstrual fluid each month.

Apparently C’elle’s has developed a non-invasive collection process through which one can process menstrual cells and store at a very low temperature for potential cellular therapies in the future. These packs are available for purchase online at a special introductory price.

I have appended the press release of the company for better clarity.

Press Release
Taking Control: Future Therapies for a Host of Serious Diseases May Be Found in Women's Menstrual Blood

OLDSMAR, Fla., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- With today’s hectic lifestyle, where most women are juggling careers, family, relationships, and a host of activities, the idea of possibly facing a serious illness in the future is not something that readily comes to mind -- especially when a woman is in the prime of her life. But what most women don’t know, is that the key to treating a number of possibly life-threatening diseases that she, a parent, a sibling or even her children may face in later years, such as osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, may be found within her own body -- in vital stem cells, which can now be harvested from her own menstrual blood.

Now, thanks to the revolutionary research and technology of C’elle, a service dedicated to providing women with a safe and easy method of collecting and preserving stem cells found in her menstrual fluid each month, even the busiest woman can take control of her future, right in the privacy of her own home. With C’elle’s non-invasive collection process, menstrual cells are processed and cryo-preserved (stored at a very low temperature) for potential cellular therapies that may be used in the future. These self-renewing cells one day may even be used for sports medicine or cosmeceutical treatments, such as anti-aging therapies.

"C’elle enables and empowers a woman to take control of her future health, and possibly of those genetically closest to her, in a fast, painless and stress free way," said Michelle Kay, Marketing and Sales Manager for C’elle. "We live in exciting times, as science and technology are discovering how extremely valuable menstrual blood stem cells really are, and the enormous treatment potential they represent for future therapies.
