#1- Everything and Anything you wanted to know about “STEM CELL” treatments in Latin America
You may have heard that stem cell treatments are one of the most promising cutting- edge non-invasive medical advances available in the US and elsewhere.
In the USA and most of the first-world, tens of thousands of patients with chronic diseases have benefited greatly from the treatment because stem cells have the potential to repair, restore, replace, and regenerate all kinds of cells and can be used to treat many medical conditions and diseases. They have proven especially effective in treating bone, cartilage, joint diseases and trauma as well as having the capacity to repair and regenerate damaged cardiac tissue and much more.
However in the USA, only the extraction of stem cells from blood and bone marrow are approved for use by the FDA and AMA. That means any other Stem Cell extraction methods and treatments are considered experimental.
What most people don’t know is that stem cells extracted from placenta and umbilical tissue (we are not talking embryonic tissue here) are vastly more effective an efficient than blood or bone marrow stem cells. Note that these methods ARE being used in experimental studies across the USA and will definitely be approved for general use in some years but as for now they are not approved for general use. However USA doctors, biochemists and medical technologists have had such amazing results over the blood and bone marrow technique that some US medical professionals have decided they cannot wait for the slugs at the FDA and AMA, so they’ve set up clinics in Latin America and elsewhere. So today we have the dope on the where, when, how and why… and the costs for various Stem Cell treatments in Latin America, including a blow by blow description of the treatment just received by one of my “Expat Insider Seminar” attendees. Practically always in pain and told by her Canadian doctors that she needed an immediate hip replacement, she opted to try stem cell treatment first in Puerta Vallerta, Mexico. So listen now and see for yourself just how it went and how she’s been doing these past weeks since the treatment began …
#2- What’s wrong (and right) with National Healthcare:
Yes, it’s a great idea- cutting out insurance company middle men and the thought of gutting big pharma. I’m all for that. But the real problem is that the damn Government will be running the thing. Just look at all the programs and departments that the government runs and administers. They do a miserable job at every level. In fact there is not a single government department or entity that is not a bloated, grossly inefficient, corrupt and malignant cancer within itself. So then, why not let them run a National Healthcare system too! It is inevitable you know. Duh?
My advice comes in the form of a question… “How’s that Plan B coming folks?”
