Stem Cells
One of the hottest topics this week in health news involves the advancements of harvesting stem cells.
The possibility of future cures for such conditions as Parkinsons disease, Alzheimers disease, Diabetes, etc. seems to be within our grasp! Although this weeks announcement introduced us to stem cells found in amniotic fluid, Ive recently read about a company called BioEden, a tooth cell bank.
Interestingly enough, the anterior baby teeth show promise for preserving these valuable cells. Amazing to think that we have the means available to potentially win against such devastating ailments. For more information; www.bioeden.com
