The oily heavy qualities of the mucuna seed, a superfood, are a well known Ayurvedic herb for nervous disorders, working specifically to tonify the nervous system and strengthen weakness. It’s energizing restorative nature is traditionally used with other adaptogens and rasayana herbs often taken as a hot drink with honey and milk. Now there is a pill of mucuna that reduces anxiety, increases mood, bone strength and libido. It also contains L-Dopa useful for brain health.
Fooey! Flu virus is tough enough because of sore throat and fever, but now scientists are saying there may be a connection between brain inflammation resulting from a virus and the onset of Alzheimer’s. For the moment that disease is up for grabs. Some researchers point to proteins others to an acid that disrupts brain communication, destroys synapses to cause Alzheimer’s. No one knows for sure. The usual pedestrian advice about avoiding Alzheimer’s does not help much – learn new skills like card games or learn a language because that engages a different part of the brain.
With rising costs of health care and American medical research hampered by political and other restrictions, some patients are turning to China and a hospital that has pioneered stem cell transplant treatments. Wujing General Hospital for Chinese Peoples Armed Police Forces was founded in Beijing in 1949. Located adjacent to the Olympic Basketball Stadium and forty minutes from the airport, it is one of China’s high level government and military hospitals featuring integrated healthcare services with fifty-five clinical departments and two hundred medical experts. It promotes scientific research, medical treatments, and education as a top medical center. Sinostemcells.com is the website name of the Department of Stem Cell transplantation at Wujing General Hospital. The department formed in 2003 is one of the first stem cell clinics in the world. Since then they have treated more than 2500 patients for various diseases. The website has research articles on treatments done at the hospital for cerebral palsy, spinal injury, Parkinson’s, brain injury, stroke, diabetes and others. Medical consultations are encouraged and offered online.
Here is a medical article from http://www.thescizone.com on how some idiots helped further research: “A group of young drug addicts in California were trying to convert meperidine (Demerol) into heroin and accidentally synthesized MPTP, or methylphenyl tetrahydropyridine a new neurotoxin causing Parkinson’s disease. When they injected MPTP into themselves, in 24 hours they came down with Parkinson’s disease. When they went to a neurologist, he was surprised because most Parkinson’s patients are elderly people. It took 10 years to find out that MPTP actually causes Parkinson’s disease by damaging the mitochondria. (Sometimes described as a battery that makes energy for the body found in DNA) Damaged mitochondria do not make ATP, and when a cell does not make ATP, it cannot repair the damage it suffers. The nerves in the body continuously are bombarded by harmful substances (free radicals) that damage them. ATP has a way of repairing this damage. Fruits and vegetables, by the way, help prevent the harmful effects of free radicals. What I (the doctor interviewed) discovered is that idiopathic Parkinson’s disease, drug-induced Parkinsonism and insecticide-induced Parkinson disease all do work on the same mechanism by damaging the mitochondria and so reducing the level of ATP.” This past February in Plantation, Florida Dr. Alan Lazar gave me a stem cell injection for osteoarthritis using my own stem cells.

VANCOUVER, May 10 /CNW/ – Respected researchers from around the world agree that stem cells therapies hold a great deal of promise for people with spinal cord injuries and related neurological disorders. But how can stem cell therapies be moved forward in an ethical, safe way? Meanwhile, how can desperate patients be discouraged from travelling the world to pursue highly unethical, hugely expensive, and even dangerous treatments, and encouraged to wait for validated and safe therapies? These are two of the central questions that will be posed to a gathering of some of the world’s most respected experts in spinal cord injury stem cell therapies at the Stem Cell Global Blueprint Conference, taking place in Toronto on May 21st and 22nd.
Published: October 21st, 2009: The XCell-Center has released results from a follow-up study of 115 spinal cord injury patients treated with autologous bone marrow stem cells. Overall, nearly 6o% improved following treatment. Dusseldorf, Germany (PRWEB) October 21, 2009 — The XCell-Center has released results from a follow-up study of 115 spinal cord injury patients treated with autologous bone marrow stem cells. Overall, nearly 6o% improved following treatment. These results support the premise that spinal cord injury patients can be treated safely and effectively with autologous stem cell therapy. The most common improvement, reported by more than 6 out of every 10 patients, was the return of feeling to the hands, feet, arms, legs or trunk. Muscle strength and endurance improved in over 50% of those treated and more than 4 in 10 patients reported a decrease in muscle spasticity. “We returned home and one week after the transplant I noticed my spasticity had decreased by about 85% and I could now put my feet flat on the floor… In March of 2009, I had my Baclofen pump removed,” reported Mrs. Patricia Miller, who underwent her first treatment in December, 2008.
