tried stem cells for neuropathy

Ellagic Acid is being studied and appears to play some role in generating stem cells.

I inadvertently purchased a supplement that contains 40% ellagic acid from Pomegranate.

Its labeled: Stem Cell Complete

The label says it helps cell function and joints.

By total accident, I finally got around to taking a few of these and they remarkably corrected my gut. Specifically, it appears to have mostly cleared out the SIBO. My gut may be leaking far less. I seem to have been able to produce nearly normal bowel movements.

If I take this stuff often, however, it has made me constipated, a condition I seem intolerant of. I think my digestive tract is extremely weak in the department of connective tissue, muscles, ligaments etc etc.

Hence, I'm a bit scared to take it very often (and I ran out of magnesium, I hope to soon correct that).

Anyway, something is up with this substance and its worth further investigating.

Here are some references discussing Ellagic Acid

what I meant was some kind of transplant.

I’ve read around stem cell transplant generally. What I thought the information stated was that it’s early in its development and it probably won’t work at this time. Hope that’s some use.

Somebody sick (Lyme victim I think) and famous, came to Mexico for stem cell treatments. Whatever that means.

Hi, @wolves2626

I don't remember which country you live in, but my limited understanding of stem cell transplant therapy is that, in the United States, it is only possible for two groups of people:

*the gravely ill, with certain qualifying conditions

OR

*the ultra wealthy, who can pay cash price and travel to whatever doctor, clinic, or hospital will provide such treatment

Here's an overview from the Cleveland Clinic:

I think it was rumoured that Cher underwent the procedure.

Yes!

And I am also thinking of the obnoxious Selma Blair who is telling everyone she put her MS in remission via stem cell transplant, while being completely oblivious to the fact that most, if not all, MS patients in the United States would never receive such a treatment.
