Frequently Asked Questions

About Stem Cells

Stem Cells and Stemulation®:

Stem cells are used to produce growth factors, cytokines and proteins through a cell proliferation process to create the conditioned media used in Stemulation® formulas.  Conditioned media is the fluid that contains the growth factors, cytokines and peptides once the stem cells are removed.  Conditioned media is the active ingredient in Stemulation.

Growth factors, cytokines and peptides:

Put simply, growth factors are the "messenger signals" that tell body cells to respond.  As the “EMT of the body”, Mesenchymal stem cells tend to be drawn to the location of a trauma and begin a cell proliferation process that produces cytokines (aka peptides), growth factors, and proteins that direct the body’s response from the nearby and surrounding cells. Stemulation® has enabled the same effect with the stem cells bypassed by utilizing the conditioned media that has been produced by the stem cells.

Stem Cell Origin:

Stemulation® uses only donor-certified stem cells sourced from GMP Medical Laboratories.  The stem cells are derived from donated bone marrow and are non-embryonic.  These stem cells are the are the identical quality and sources that supply cells for research and transplantation.

Types of Stem Cells:

Only Mesenchymal Stem Cells are used because they are pluripotent.   Mesenchymal stem cells are from bone marrow but more specifically, pluripotent cells are cells that are capable of differentiating into one of many cell types such as skin, bone, tissue and blood.

Mesenchymal stem cells in the body:

These are the "medical signaling" cells of the body that act as the "emergency medical team" of they body.  They function to direct the body's healthy cells to respond to any deficiency or trauma.

Stemulation® products CONTAIN NO STEM CELLS.

Stem cells are unable to live outside of a carefully controlled environment - such as the body or in the lab.  Also, the molecular size of stem cells is too large to be absorbed by the skin.  It's simply not possible, and any product claiming to contain actual stem cells is providing misinformation.
