One of the things that has been kind of close to my heart is all the research going on with stem cells. Frankly, I think it’s great what they’re doing with stem cells. These cells could very well be the key to figuring diseases from cancer to alzheimer’s. I’ve even heard that research is being done to help accident victims who have been paralyzed - although I have to admit I’m not sure about that. A couple of my friends have kids and have told me more than once that they would have stored cord blood from their kids had they been given the option. Unfortunately, they weren’t.
However, there is an answer now. Technological advances in stem cell research are showing that women’s menstrual blood is also a rich source of stem cells. This means that the blood that any woman of child bearing age expells each month can be utilized for stem cell usage later in life. These stem cells are a perfect match for the woman and often are a match for parents, siblings, children, and other blood relations. The implications of this are great. Now mothers who didn’t store cord blood have an opportunity to have those precious stem cells stored, and women who don’t yet have children or don’t plan on it, can have the opportunity to have stem cells stored for themselves, their parents, and siblings.
All of this is made possible by C’Elle. Check out the press release regarding this awesome new health technology.
Taking Control: Future Therapies for a Host of Serious Diseases May Be Found in Women’s Menstrual Blood
July 07, 2008: 01:28 PM EST
OLDSMAR, Fla., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — With today’s hectic lifestyle, where most women are juggling careers, family, relationships, and a host of activities, the idea of possibly facing a serious illness in the future is not something that readily comes to mind — especially when a woman is in the prime of her life. But what most women don’t know, is that the key to treating a number of possibly life-threatening diseases that she, a parent, a sibling or even her children may face in later years, such as osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, may be found within her own body — in vital stem cells, which can now be harvested from her own menstrual blood.
Now, thanks to the revolutionary research and technology of C’elle, a service dedicated to providing women with a safe and easy method of collecting and preserving stem cells found in her menstrual fluid each month, even the busiest woman can take control of her future, right in the privacy of her own home. With C’elle’s non-invasive collection process, menstrual cells are processed and cryo-preserved (stored at a very low temperature) for potential cellular therapies that may be used in the future. These self-renewing cells one day may even be used for sports medicine or cosmeceutical treatments, such as anti-aging therapies.
“C’elle enables and empowers a woman to take control of her future health, and possibly of those genetically closest to her, in a fast, painless and stress free way,” said Michelle Kay, Marketing and Sales Manager for C’elle. “We live in exciting times, as science and technology are discovering how extremely valuable menstrual blood stem cells really are, and the enormous treatment potential they represent for future therapies. C’elle’s ongoing research is supporting these promising findings.”

If you still aren’t convinced this is a good thing, you can always go check out a Celle Client Testimonial. After all, who would be in a better position to tell you what a great innovation and wonderful thing this is, other than someone who has used it? This truly is a wonderful opportunity to help ourselves and our families in the future. I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather save the stem cells now and not need them than need them later in life and not have them.
