This should be front page news all over the country.

Of course, it won't be.

"At first he was not sure where stem cells for nerve tissues should be taken from, but it soon occurred to him that the mucous membrane of the nose, with its many nerve endings, was the best source. Extracted neural stem cells are grown in tissue culture to be then injected into the damaged spine area, restoring the vertebrae one by one."


This along with their reported 100% cure rate suggest we should take this with a grain of salt.

Have the American people cured of major medical problems? The huge "health care" system in this country just couldn't afford the loss of income in drugs and surgeries. Let's keep these stem cell cures under raps is their intent.

The nose again! Intriguing. A few days back a Chinese surgeon was using embryonic cells from freshly-killed unborn humans to do something similar to this.

Looks to me, that it's the nose, not the baby, that just might be the key.

You're right since it would embrace the culture of LIFE.

Shhh. Wouldn't want to spread the news. And cut into the death industry's profits. If it does make the news at all, it will be in a disparaging, disproving kind of way, and include some kind of slam against the Pro-life movement and it's proponents.

Here in PA, thanks to a college course and the professor, no less!, I was made aware of Pitt's groundbreaking work using fat cells as a stem cell source and their successes. And the horrific failures of embryonic stem cells with their odd, often irreversible side effects. And through this professor at Pitt, we also learned of similar work at the Univ of Wisconsin, Stanford and a university in Hawaii, the same kind of studies with the same success. I am no longer amazed that most people I mention that to have never heard of it, even people at Pitt.
