Stem cells are being used for anti ageing purposes and to help people to recover from serious injuries quite frequently, but only a select few countries have approved these treatments.
A lot of people use stem cells to avoid the ageing process.
There is no clinically validated use of stem cells for human therapeutic applications in the nervous system.
However some promising work in mice has proven that it is very effective.
You can boost stem cell proliferation naturally through:
- Intermittent fasting
The number of circulating stem cells in the blood increases with caloric restriction, the lifespan of your organs is lengthened as well. If you’re not comfortable fasting then you can try alkalising instead, numerous studies have proven it’s effectiveness. A future article will explain what alkalising is, and how to alkalise properly.
- Limiting triglycerides
Triglycerides build up when we consume too many carbohydrates, if you consume more carbohydrates than you burn you’ll have high triglycerides. This can lead to metabolic syndrome. Stem cells don’t grow much in people that have high triglycerides.
If you consume more omega 3 fatty acids this will support healthy inflammatory pathways.
Omega 3 fatty acids are in quinoa, fish, nuts, soybean oil, eggs, milk, Brussel sprouts, avocados, walnuts have more omega 3s than most nuts.
- Exercising aerobically
Aerobic exercise has been proven to help stem cells turn into bone instead of fat. Stem cells are activated in the muscles during exercise. Mesenchymal stem cells proliferate when you exercise. Creating new bone and muscle structures, balance is important here, too much aerobic exercise can be quite damaging. Everybody is different, and has different requirements, your work will determine how much exercise you need outside of work. Go hiking, join a gym or learn Kung Fu.
- Reducing Glucose Consumption
Reducing glucose consumption increases stem cell longevity. Carbohydrates turn to glucose in our system and fuel disease. Reducing sugar intake improves stem cell activity.
People that are undergoing stem cell transplantation have to cut out sugar and consume less carbohydrates.
It’s easier to avoid sugar if you don’t get cravings, if you’re dopaminergic circuits are being bombarded with dopamine release from glucose on a regular basis it will take some time to repair this imbalance. Serotonin boosting activities and foods can help to repair this imbalance. Also removing or reducing stress can help as well.
- Avoiding fizzy water, fizzy drinks, alcohol and processed foods.
These foods create inflammation in the body and you need to support healthy inflammation pathways to boost stem cell production.
Vegetarianism can make it harder to avoid processed foods, so the best solution is to eat everything natural that you’re not allergic to.
- Getting enough vitamin D
Vitamin D enables stem cells to create new healthy tissues and organs. The flesh of fatty fish and fish liver oils are rich in vitamin D.
Adequate sun exposure is also necessary to boost your vitamin D levels.
In conclusion: Stem cell treatment is not officially endorsed by any medical bodies yet, but if you dig you can find some providers that will perform the treatment for you, until this is publicly available you can boost stem cell proliferation naturally in these ways.
