Aging Baby Boomers Welcome Stem-Kine

By Estela Bolton


Stem-Kine creates a nurturing environment for the stimulation of stem cell production. These are immature, undifferentiated, cells in the body that have the ability to divide through a process called mitosis. Because they are immature, they also have the ability to develop into mature, differentiated cells to replace worn out adult tissue.

This type of cell is also known as a progenitor cell for their ability to mature into a variety of different adult cells. These cells are also called pluripotent cells. The term, "pluripotent, " was coined in 1915-1920 and means "plural, " from the Latin, and "potent" from the English word.

There are two basic types of progenitor cell in the human body. Embryonic cells are derived from the embryonic blastocyst where they go on to differentiate into one of the various types of specialized tissue that make up the body. In the adult, these cells may be harvested from bone marrow. Either type can be used to replenish cells as required.

By boosting the population of progenitor cells, individuals can derive many benefits. Among these are enhanced energy levels, improved growth of nails and hair, speedy recovery from operations or injuries and a general feeling of health and well-being. The overall result is better health and slower aging.

When progenitor cells are taken from one's own body, they are called autologous. These are harvested from adipose (fat) tissue, blood or the bone marrow. These may be frozen and banked in the same way that people can put their own blood into a bank for future use in case of surgery, illness or injury. The umbilical cord may be stored after birth to provide another source of immature, pluripotent cells. One possible use for these banked cells is for transplantation of bone marrow in the case of certain cancers.

Progenitor cells undergo two types of division in order to ensure a continued supply. Both types have fancy-sounding names but are really very simple procedures. In the first, obligatory asymmetric replication, two different cell types are produced. One is called a mother cell because it is an identical stem cell and the other is a differentiated daughter cell. In the body, differentiation of progenitor cells involves the secretion of chemicals in the cell called growth factors. Once a cell differentiates, it is no longer capable of dividing to form new cells.

The other method of division that creates more progenitor cells has an even fancier name, stochastic differentiation. In this process, one cell develops into two differentiated cells and stops dividing, while the other cell produces two undifferentiated cells which are identical to the original cell.

Stem-Kine is cutting-edge, frontier-bashing science. It provides a wealth of nutrients that boost the body's natural repair systems. For the Baby Boomer generation who are entering their senior years and looking forward to a long and happy retirement, this comes just in the nick of time. Stem-Kine can lead to increased numbers of protenitor cells, retard the process of aging and help senior citizens enjoy their retirement years.
