Stem Cell Preservation

Cenegenics Carolinas is the only Southeast medical facility offering adult patients the opportunity to harvest, restore, and preserve stem cells for use in the future. A breakthrough medical discovery showing more promise with each passing year, stem cells can be used to repair cells in the human body. They can be a vital therapeutic tool if a patient is undergoing cancer therapy, orthopedic treatment or is diagnosed with leukemia, diabetes, stroke or cardiovascular disease.

Adult stem cell therapy is used for the treatment of more than 70 diseases. With just a simple blood draw to obtain the stem cells, Cenegenics-Carolinas patients’ can preserve the stem cells that may be beneficial in the future if a patient is diagnosed with a potentially deadly disease. When patients use their own cells, they avoid the risk of rejection and “Graft-versus-host disease”, a serious life threatening immune response that occurs in a person who receives someone else’s stem cells. Individual and family pricing available.

Many of us, particularly the hard driving Type A individuals, claim they need only 6 hours of sleep to be productive. Unfortunately, most are likely fooling themselves. A recent study at the University of California-San Francisco published in Science has identified a genetic mutation that causes individuals to need only 6 hours of sleep nightly. This gene runs in families and only occurs in 3% of individuals.

For the rest of us, 7-8 ½ hours are required for both health and productivity. Most of us are building a large and dangerous sleep debt. Individuals with chronic sleep deprivation are likely to have increased motor vehicle accidents as well as short term memory, focus and attention issues. Depression and inability to control appetite are also associated with inadequate sleep. Lastly, obesity and increased vascular inflammation have been linked to poor sleep quantity and quality. Obviously, adequate sleep is a huge preventive medicine issue.

The good news? Researchers are working on a compound that could mimic the gene mutation. Until then, listen to your mother and get 8 hours of sleep.
