Up until now, these diseases were all widely considered incurable. But you are about to see how all that is rapidly changing...

  • Heart disease — CURED

  • Alzheimer’s — CURED

  • Diabetes — CURED

  • Stroke — CURED

  • Spinal cord injury — HEALED

  • ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) — CURED

  • Sickle cell disease — REVERSED

At the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, we are moving from treating to curing. When I find a therapy that’s proven by science, I offer it to my patients who need it. And I’ve had incredible success for years using cutting-edge therapies that mainstream medicine ignores.

One of the biggest examples is stem cells, which I believed would be the biggest medical breakthrough of my career... Until now.

Not long ago, I was thrilled to introduce HyperStem™ — the breakthrough therapy we’re performing at the Sears Institute — with such a wonderful audience of our dedicated followers.

At the institute, we’re now taking stem cells to a whole new level... I’m talking about our new therapy — HyperStem .

You see, HyperStem combines two of the most effective regenerative and anti-aging therapies that exist today — stem cells and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) .

Now both therapies provide lifesaving treatment for a large number of chronic conditions, ranging from diabetes, stroke and spinal cord injuries to Alzheimer’s, arthritis and heart disease. And so many more.

But when stem cells are combined together with HBOT, it results in 800% MORE healing power.

Let me explain...

HBOT mobilizes stem cells from the bone marrow. In one study, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania gave a series of 20 HBOT treatments to 18 people.

Following just one two-hour treatment stem cells increased by 50%. After the full 20 HBOT treatments stem cells increased by 800% .

As a regular reader, you know that stem cells are the basic building blocks of your entire body. They can be transformed into virtually every cell type. They allow your body to regenerate damaged tissue in any organ — from your brain to your heart to your liver.

Studies prove these stem cells can:

  • Regenerate brain circuits and reverse severe stroke damage.

  • Reverse degenerative disc disease in the spine.

  • Activate the immune system.

  • Relieve arthritis and knee osteoarthritis.

  • Repair tendons, torn muscles, injured ligaments, and damaged joint cartilage.

  • Stimulate new collagen in the skin and reduce wrinkles.

In other words, stem cells let your body do what it was designed to do: heal itself.

They can also reduce the advance of many conditions like diabetes, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, heart disease, macular degeneration, inflammation and autoimmune diseases.

Turbo-Charge Your Healing Power With The Two Best Therapies

When you use HBOT and stem cell therapy together, you’re ramping up the number of activated stem cells in your bloodstream. These then go to work with turbo-charged healing power on the parts of your body that need repair.

You see, HBOT works to mobilize stem cells from bone marrow — and most stem cell therapies now use adipose stem cells. The combined treatment gets a double dose of these newly activated cells into your bloodstream, and then whisks them toward the areas of damage.

A recent study out of the Neural Regeneration Research found results showing test subjects with TBI, who were given traditional stem cell therapy and HBOT, had better neurological outcomes and better cognitive performance scores than subjects given only one type of treatment.

And in a trial at Miami University, 25 type 2 diabetic patients had five hour-long sessions of HBOT before and after stem cell infusions. Four patients were able to stop using insulin altogether after the combined treatment. Fifteen significantly reduced their insulin use over a year, and 10 stopped or dramatically lowered their doses of diabetic meds, like metformin.

HyperStem is a win-win situation for your body no matter what your condition. Not only does it boost your stem cell count, but areas of your body that lack oxygen will begin to receive oxygen again.

You see, by dramatically boosting your oxygen supply with HBOT, you’re really giving yourself another form of natural stem cell therapy — and when used in conjunction with traditional stem cell therapy, your body goes into healing warp drive.

The problem is that mainstream medicine is way behind the curve on both of these therapies, and most doctors aren’t trained in hyperbaric or stem cell medicine.

By combining stem cells with the best therapy for growing new blood vessels, I’ve pioneered this new approach that floods 8x more stem cells into where you need them most. I’ve seen the life-changing results in my patients firsthand...

My Patient Told Me... “I’m Tired Of Being Treated, I Want To Be Cured.”

A few months ago, one of my readers drove down from Alabama to see me at my clinic here in South Florida. He read about the work we were doing with our cutting-edge therapies and he was desperate to be cured.

I was about to take him into my office to talk. But then he stopped and pointed to the lady sitting in the chair next to him.

“Dr. Sears,” he said. “This is Pearl. I fell in love with this woman right from the moment I saw her. That was 18 years ago... “

“And I want to live with her for a lot more years.”

But he was worried that his deteriorating health would cut short the rest of their lives together.

"Dr. Sears prescribes what God has always provided. If everyone knew what I learned from him, we wouldn’t be building hospitals. We’d be cured of all diseases."

Leonard Atkinson

Leonard Atkinson is 75 years old. When I first met him, he was suffering from insulin resistance, elevated glucose levels, chronic inflammation and high blood pressure.

He was also 70 pounds overweight and tired all the time. He barely got out of his easy chair and he felt he was missing out on the things he loved most. Like climbing on his tractor and turning the grounds for his gardens.

Just getting around was hard. His left foot had been partially amputated and he could only walk by leaning heavily on his cane.

Leonard had been diagnosed with diabetes 25 years earlier. But it was apparent that he had a classic case of Syndrome Zero — the root of all chronic disease.

When I first met Leonard, he was seeing two physicians. And following their advice to a T. But like a lot of patients in his position, Leonard was getting the wrong medical advice... And it sent his A1C levels soaring.

Then every time his blood sugar levels got out of whack, his doctor increased his insulin. And the more insulin he took, the more weight he gained.

I see this happen all the time in my Syndrome Zero patients. Leonard even had his own way of describing it — a merry-go-round with a rollercoaster in the middle surrounded by a Ferris wheel!

But the worst part was his doctors told him he’d never be cured. Luckily, Leonard refused to believe this and took the drive down to my clinic.

I started Leonard on my HyperStem protocol that afternoon. This protocol includes stem cell therapy, HBOT, detox, IV laser therapy, Myers’ cocktail and intermittent fasting.

We put him on the Primal Power Meal Plan, as well as the supplements he needed to make up for his substrate dietary deficiencies.

Only four months into his treatment, Leonard was already on his way to being cured. He lost nearly 30 pounds. He already felt better and more energized than he has in years. He even threw away his cane and got off three of his four medications.

Today, his results are even better. After just nine months Leonard is:

  • Off ALL medications

  • Lost 70 pounds — and counting

  • Energy is “off the wall”

  • Inflammation is gone

  • Threw away his cane

  • Glucose level is in normal range

  • Blood pressure is back to normal

  • Libido is better

Leonard stopped his downward spiral of Syndrome Zero symptoms in its tracks. A big part of Leonard’s success was the HyperStem therapy we provided. Since we started using stem cell therapy at the clinic, I’ve found that it’s the biggest-ever advance in regenerative medicine.

It’s creating a whole new field of medicine and it will soon affect every other specialty. Why is it so powerful? Because it’s centuries ahead of drug therapy — and stem cells are already present inside of you to repair whatever ails you.

Here’s Leonard before and after his tremendous success with HyperStem. He says, “If I didn’t have this therapy — this cure — I wouldn’t be here today.”

As Leonard said to me, it’s what God gave us to fix something when it goes wrong.

Stem cell therapy has the power to target the root cause of your blood sugar concerns. Because the hidden cause of diseases like diabetes isn’t in your blood sugar, it’s in your cells.

Here’s what the science is saying about stem cell therapy...

In an animal study at Stanford University, researchers reversed diabetes completely in mice using stem cell technology. The therapy kept blood sugar healthy for the equivalent of 10 human years. The procedure was so successful that even the lead scientist admits he was surprised.

In another study, researchers at Northwestern University treated patients using their own stem cells. The results were amazing. Nearly 87% of patients saw their body’s ability to produce insulin completely restored.

And five years later, tests showed they maintained healthy levels of insulin and blood sugar. And all with just a single one-time dose!

And the beauty with HyperStem is that it increases the success of the stem cells. Brand-new studies are showing that adding HBOT to stem cell therapy has a much more profound effect than stem cells alone.

HBOT nurtures the stem cells so they can go where they need and thrive inside you.

How To Get The Healing Power Of HyperStem In A Few Simple Steps

My team and I have been perfecting this healing therapy. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Relax and breathe: We take you to the HBOT chamber. As you recline comfortably, you’ll breathe in 100% oxygen. A typical session takes 80 minutes.

2. Harvest: A small amount of fat tissue is removed from your abdomen or love handles. This minimally invasive procedure is done during an office visit. All you need afterward is a small Band-Aid.

3. Separate: We separate your stem cells from your fat cells with a high-speed centrifuge.

4. Isolate: We add your isolated adult stem cells to your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

5. Infuse: Then reintroduce them, along with the PRP, back into your body through an IV.

6. Return to HBOT: Finally, we take you to the HBOT chamber. As you recline comfortably, you’ll breathe in 100% oxygen. You can meditate, listen to music, watch a movie or simply relax.

7. Follow up with additional HyperStem protocol therapies (IV laser, EECP, IV nutrients).

My team and I have combined the best healing therapies that work together to give you the most out of your HyperStem protocol.

And today I’m going to share with you these unique steps. With this protocol, you can move away from treating to curing diseases. Even if you are healthy, you can benefit from HyperStem to stay in great health.

Now let me tell you about my breakthrough HyperStem protocol...

STEP 1: HBOT: A Cure As Easy As Breathing

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) really is just about breathing — except you’re getting 100% oxygen under higher pressure (up to 2.5 times) than we have normally in the air.

HBOT is the delivery of high-pressure oxygen to your body. It was first used in the 1930s to treat deep-sea divers with decompression sickness called the bends. But doctors soon discovered that it also speeded up wound healing.

At the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, I treat patients with 100% oxygen at 1.5 times normal atmospheric pressure. You see, HBOT works because it infuses your body with this supercharged oxygen. It increases oxygen levels in your red blood cells, encouraging the healing and regeneration of tissues, blood vessels and nerves.

Let me explain...

The main reason HBOT is so effective begins with a number: 100 trillion. That’s roughly the number of cells in your body — and each one requires oxygen to make and burn fuel and live.

When you breathe, oxygen binds to a protein molecule called hemoglobin in your red blood cells, which transports it to every cell, tissue and organ in your body.

But when your body is injured — whether it’s a blocked artery, a diabetic wound, brain damage or gangrene — it reduces the amount of blood flow, and therefore oxygen, to the damaged area.

That means the cells in the wounded part of your body go into a kind of suspended animation, because they’re only getting enough oxygen to barely survive.

But with HBOT, your lungs take in more oxygen than would be possible if you were breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Can Treat These Medical Conditions:

  • Anemia

  • Arthritis

  • Burns

  • Brain injury

  • Crash Injury

  • Cerebral palsy

  • Chronic wounds

  • Decompression sickness

  • Nerve-Related deafness

  • Diabetic foot ulcer

  • Hypoxia

  • Heart disease

  • Infections, including gangrene and bone infections

  • Migraines

  • Pain management

  • Carbon monoxide poisoning

  • Stroke

The combination of pressure and oxygen, physically dissolves more oxygen into your red blood cells, boosting oxygen levels and encouraging healing and regeneration.

Studies show breathing pressurized oxygen also stimulates the release of growth factors and stem cells. This also promotes healing and gets the cells working again.

Thanks to the FDA’s needless warning, mainstream medicine has been slow on the uptake. But hyperbaric chambers are now used in a handful of hospitals and healing centers. As a painless, drug-free treatment for many of our modern world’s most chronic conditions, its potential is enormous.

Instead of cutting open your body, removing limbs, or injecting nauseating drugs into your veins, I prefer to prescribe hyperbaric oxygen any day.

And there are no known side effects because you’re not putting anything unnatural in your body. Just pure oxygen... the very source of life.

In spite of its warnings, the FDA has approved hyperbaric oxygen therapy as a primary treatment for four different kinds of brain injuries — carbon monoxide poisoning, arterial gas embolisms, cerebral decompression sickness (the bends), and radiation damage to the brain after cancer radiotherapy.

Yet it continues to ignore the long history of successes and the decades of sound scientific research that back up HBOT as a treatment for many other forms of brain damage.

Sadly, most doctors still believe HBOT works by creating a placebo effect. But that’s an enormous misconception.

The fact is that HBOT activates 8,100 genes — especially those involved in inflammation, growth and the repair of human tissue. And placebos don’t activate genes.

The real problem is that HBOT falls outside America’s health delivery system.

I updated the HBOT chamber in my clinic. It delivers the healing power of oxygen at 1.5 times normal atmospheric pressure.

Oxygen restarts the same growth processes you enjoyed as a child. It encourages the regeneration of brain tissues, its blood vessels and nerves. Increasing oxygen loads up the red blood cells, thus promoting healing and regeneration.

The treatment itself is easy and painless. You just lie down and breathe. You can watch TV, read or even take a nap. The only difference is that you’re breathing pure oxygen at 1.5 times normal atmospheric pressure.

More Than 30 Years Of Overwhelming Research For HBOT’s Healing Abilities

The research and success of HBOT over the past 30 years has been so overwhelming, the FDA has even approved it for many conditions. Many insurance companies now also accept it as part of a treatment protocol.

Researchers have put acute stroke patients, children with cerebral palsy, as well as victims of chronic and slow-healing medical conditions into hyperbaric chambers to breathe pressurized oxygen where drugs and surgical interventions are fed into a treatment.

The results have been astonishing.

The list of conditions HBOT can successfully treat is growing almost daily. Research has found that HBOT can:

  • Help stroke survivors regain movement following paralysis.

  • Revive “dead” brain cells in patients with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

  • Reduce blood glucose levels in diabetics.

  • Significantly relieved migraines compared to a placebo therapy.

  • Eliminate joint pain and inflammation in arthritis patients.

  • Ease tinnitus symptoms by 50%.

HBOT encourages the healing and regeneration of tissues, blood vessels and nerves for three major reasons:

  1. Oxygen is used to produce and burn the cellular energy that powers every biochemical function in your body. Hypoxia (low oxygen in your blood) and hypoxemia (low oxygen in your tissues) are at the root of multiple illnesses in our polluted modern world. When you suffuse your cells with oxygen, it’s equivalent to breathing life into a drowning victim. Tissues and organs begin to function as they were intended.

  2. HBOT stimulates the release of stem cells. A study out of University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine found that after just one HBOT treatment, stem cell concentrations doubled — but after 20 treatments, they increased a staggering 800%. And another study found HBOT not only reactivates and mobilizes “sleeping” stem cells — these stem cells have a higher concentration of inflammation-regulating proteins that battle and repair cellular damage where it occurs.

  3. HBOT increases synthesis of nitric oxide (NO), one of your body’s key signaling chemicals. Multiple studies also reveal that NO signals the release of stem cells, and plays a key role in how stem cells divide and grow into specific tissue, organ and immune cells.

Boost Your Oxygen Intake At Home

To date, I’ve traveled more than 60,000 miles to 30 countries on six continents, all in search of natural healing herbs and novel cures and approaches that modern medicine has no interest in showing you.

But not all of the treatments I bring back are new. In fact, most have been around for thousands of years. And every day, new ways of using these ancient secrets are revealed. One of these healing secrets is deep breathing.

On my last trip to India, I met a yoga teacher at the center where I stayed. Every morning we’d wake before dawn. As we watched the sunrise over the mountain, he taught me how to breathe.

Yoga breathing balances your parasympathetic nervous system. This is your “rest and digest” system. It’s what makes you relax and recuperate.

These days, we’re so over-stimulated, we’re always in a state of “fight or flight” (your sympathetic nervous system). Too much stimulation leads to an over dominance of sympathetic tone. This can lead to less stem cells.

Breathing can change that.

Recently, I read a comparison between beginning yoga students and expert students. The expert yoga students had up to five times less inflammation than the beginners.

Inflammation is triggered when the lining of your blood vessels is irritated or injured. You get inflammation from day-to-day stress. You also get it from a typical American diet. Junk food, fast food, processed food, and non-organic, hormone-injected, commercially farmed food stress you out from the inside.

Inflammation kills your stem cells. That’s why HyperStem creates the perfect environment because HBOT rids your body of inflammation. And when you reduce inflammation, it protects your stem cells.

When you control your breathing, it builds your lungs. When you exhale, it calms your mind and helps stress go away.

When you’re conscious of your breathing, it relieves stress and extinguishes inflammation.

As an anti-aging physician, I know your lungs determine whether you live or die. Doctors involved in the Framingham Heart Study discovered that lung health predicts how long a person will live — even before they develop a serious disease.

One of the first steps in healing your body and mind is to get more oxygen. Here’s a simple breathing exercise you can do right now, wherever you are to begin expanding your lung power.

Step 1: Begin by exhaling completely. Force out every drop.

Step 2: Inhale deeply for at least a slow count of four. Fill your lungs until you can’t inhale anymore.

Step 3: Hold your breath for at least a slow count of seven. Anticipating the exhalation like this creates a calming and rebalancing effect.

Step 4: Now exhale for at least a slow count of eight. Empty your lungs fully, then force out any remaining air. This is the part we usually forget, but it’s the most crucial. As you exhale, you will feel yourself relax.

Do this five to 10 times, and you’ll be amazed how it drops your pulse rate, lowers your blood pressure, and calms your mind.

Now that you’ve created a safe environment, it’s time to activate your master healing cells.

STEP 2: Stem Cells: Miracle Cure For Boy Shot Through The Heart

Stem cell therapy promises to transform modern medicine. It could put Big Pharma out of business. It has proved to be a modern miracle.

Let me tell you about the story of a young boy who was saved with this cutting-edge stem cell cure.

Braden Heckendorn was enjoying Christmas break with his friends and family. On December 28th, he was spending the day at a relative’s house. He and his brother set up a target practice in the backyard and brought out the pellet guns they got as gifts three days before.

Then tragedy struck.

The gun malfunctioned and a pellet went through the 7-year-old’s armpit, shooting him right in the heart. Braden went into cardiac arrest and was officially dead for 22 minutes. He was rushed to the hospital where his parents, Bruce and Kristy, were told he had a 1% chance of survival.

Doctors fixed the hole in his heart. But five days later, he had a stroke and suffered severe brain damage along with seizures. Braden was given 24 hours to live...

Miraculously, Braden lived. But because the accident robbed his brain of oxygen, he was left unable to walk, talk or see.

While he made minor improvements over the next couple years, his progress hit a wall. Doctors told Bruce and Kristy this was the best they could expect.

But they refused that diagnosis. And turned to the Internet to research their options. That’s when they learned about stem cell therapy.

The Heckendorns took Braden to Mexico for treatment because this life-changing therapy was illegal in the U.S. Blocked by the big arm of the FDA...

Today, Braden can talk, walk, see and play like any other 11-year-old boy. His family says they can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Thanks to stem cell therapy, Braden made a miraculous recovery. Today, he can walk, talk and play like any other 11-year-old boy.

Braden’s just one of many stem cell recoveries. And stories like his are the reason I keep fighting for life-saving therapies.

So I’ve been offering stem cell therapy for years and my patients get great results. But even if you can’t come to South Florida, you can still take advantage of this cutting-edge science.

You see, researchers used to think stem cells could only be harvested from embryos. But now we know your body has its own treasure trove of these regenerating cells — the mesenchymal stem cells.

There are more than 65 conditions that can be treated or cured with this mesenchymal stem cell therapy. But these stem cells go beyond curing disease. They can also help you reverse aging...

In fact, studies now make clear that a reduction in the number and function of your mesenchymal stem cells is one of the chief causes of aging. Your immune system gets slower and less effective as you age because you have fewer of these active stem cells to regulate it or handle regeneration and repair.

These adult stem cells can remain in their “sleeping” state for years, even decades. But no matter what your age, you can access them and activate them. And you don’t need permission from the FDA.

Here at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, I offer a number of treatments that can awaken stem cells in your body — including PRP and fat-derived stem cell therapy for a range of conditions as varied as diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), arthritis, old sports injuries and skin wrinkles.

Brand-new stem cell breakthroughs are happening all the time. Just in the last year, researchers:

  • Restored eyesight in two blind macular degeneration patients in England.

  • Reversed erectile dysfunction in eight patients in Denmark.

  • Returned heart function to normal in patients suffering from severe heart failure in Scotland.

Our Toxic World Leaves Us Vulnerable to Disease

You were made perfect. Your body has amazing abilities to heal itself and nature did a perfect job providing you with what you need to survive.

The problem is the world we live in is not natural.

Everything from the polluted air we breathe, the toxic chemicals we use, and especially the overly processed, grain-based foods we eat have created the biggest health crisis we’ve ever seen.

By the time you are 75, you have less than one-third of the stem cells you had at birth

Our bodies have reacted to this unnatural environment in an unhealthy way. And you begin to lose stem cell activity as you age (stem cell senescence), making your body’s recovery process longer and harder.

Stem cell senescence means you are less able to regenerate new cells. That’s when chronic problems start.

The good news is you can create a nurturing environment in your body that helps your stems cells thrive and go where they need no matter your age.

Boost Stem Cell Activity With the Right Exercise

One of the easiest ways to stimulate the healing power of stem cells is exercise. A recent study in the European Heart Journal showed that vigorous exercise in mice activated 60% of their cardiac stem cells. After just two weeks of exercise the mice showed increased cardiomyocytes, the “beating” cells in heart tissue.

It works for humans, too. In another study, a simple exercise program made dormant stem cells become active. And amazingly, these new stem cells could help remodel the heart in a group of heart failure patients.

Italian researchers also recently proved that strenuous exercise can lead to high levels of stem cells in bone, liver, and other organs.

Exercise has also been shown to activate stem cells in bone marrow and get them circulating in the blood. They’ve been called circulating paramedics. Once in the bloodstream, they patrol tissues to halt infections and repair muscle and tissue damage.

But before you set out for a walk, it’s important to know that not all exercise will activate stem cells. You have to do a program like my PACE anti-aging system.

Just walking, running, cycling, or swimming for 30 minutes won’t get you the results I’m talking about. You have to reach a high enough intensity to work up a sweat.

With PACE, your goal is to hit a peak of intensity in a short timeframe and then rest. You don’t have to do hours of cardio. You’ll be done in 20 minutes or less.

And it doesn’t matter what shape you’re in when you start. You can start with the level that’s right for you and slowly progress to more intensity.

But PACE isn’t about going all out as hard as you can. You always leave yourself a little bit of room in your workout where you could have gone harder. As you get closer to your peak, you control it so you have room to improve the next day.

To start optimizing your body’s stem cell production today, I recommend trying this classic PACE exercise at home. It’s a simple crunch.

  • Lie on the floor face up with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor about hip-width apart.

  • Place your hands behind your head to support your neck.

  • Lift both your head and your feet at the same time and crunch together squeezing both the upper and lower abdominal muscles.

  • Release head and feet to the floor.

  • Repeat for three or four minutes at a speed and level of intensity you’re comfortable with.

  • Rest and recover.

Aim for three sets like this. To make it a true PACE workout, increase the challenge when you’re ready. For instance, instead of bending your knees, straighten your legs and stretch your hands toward your feet. Now lift your head and legs at the same time crunching your abdominal muscles together.

Start slowly. It will take a few sessions to build up your stamina, strength and balance.

If you want to learn some other good PACE exercises, go to my YouTube channel (https://youtu.be/ub0eov_MxJs). I have more than 30 different exercises and a complete workout to help you get started.

Two Extra Steps For Waking Up Your Stem Cells

1. Get eight hours of sleep each night. Your stem cells and immune system need sleep. This is when your body’s maintenance work takes place. When you’re deprived of sleep, your immune system suffers and your body becomes vulnerable to illnesses and infections.

Here’s why...

In 2013, Swiss researchers discovered that a disruption of normal sleep rhythms disrupted stem cell functioning. And last year, German researchers found that a good night’s sleep protects stem cells from DNA damage, which keeps them young.

2. Use the secret of the longest living people on earth. Seaweed also promotes stem cell activity. Undaria pinnatifida, better known as wakame, contains the anti-aging molecule fucoidan, which at least partly explains why the people of Okinawa, Japan, live longer than any other people on Earth.

Wakame is an edible seaweed that is a staple of the Okinawa diet. This seaweed contains the highest concentration of fucoidan.

Fucoidan is found mostly in brown seaweeds and is common in sushi. But wakame is especially effective.

Studies show that fucoidan has a remarkable ability to promote tissue regeneration, immune function, and improving cell-to-cell communication.

Not only is fucoidan known for its anti-aging affects, it is also believed to combat cancer, metabolic syndrome and other degenerative disorders.

And researchers stimulated mesenchymal stem cells to grow new blood vessels by combining fucoidan with standard stem cell therapy. This opens an exciting new treatment pathway for strokes and other vascular conditions that arise from blockages in blood supply to tissues.

Other studies show the same combination can boost bone regeneration and the suppression of colon cancer cells.
