Stem cell looks like it could be a holy grail of medicine along with things like immunotherapy. If you’re in the US your options are probably limited thanks to the pro-life crowd preventing much needed research. Here’s a talk with Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson..

i had stem cell therapy on my shoulder, it was a complete waste of $6000 which insurance didn't cover and came with quite a bit of pain (during the procedure) too. but some others had some success with it. the key is to find a doctor willing to tell you the truth. the doctor i saw wanted my money, end of story. when i finally saw some other better doctors, they told me my shoulder was beyond the point where stem cell therapy would help. i had almost no cartilage left in the area, so stem cell couldn't help me. i ended up getting a complete shoulder replacement, and though my shoulder will never be strong again, i can do just about everything i want.

the “pro-life crowd” has ABSOLUTELY NO say in research; you sound like a fake news-infected zombie ready to kill on demand
Currently ALL medical, technological & ethical research — we need the latter badly to deal with unscrupulous governments who may get their hands on AI technology — is controlled by five, yes five, publishers worldwide who work for the global bankers. So no, research isn’t stymied by the powerless pro-life crowd, but by the globalists in power who control the multi-billion dollar global medical industry. You have no idea how much med tech & meds are waiting for the bureaucracy to let them thru to the free market.
Stem-cell can be done in ethical ways in full conformity with Biblical principles, but the five bank-funded scientific publishers will never allow that research to be published bc it’s against their ideology & threatens their power.

Controlling funding = controlling research. You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about and won’t even get into the rest of your rant. Please do yourself a favour and try not to sound like a raving lunatic when disagreeing with someone. Have a nice day.

Hey! LetsFlyAKite
Looks like global bankers are willing to sell stem cells too! LOL

Not a bad outcome considering all possibilities. Do you believe the people running these stem-cell clinics would recognize a stem-cell if it walked up and and offered to launch their kite for them?

It could be. I think the real debate is making sure we in the USA are not passed by other nations that will do the research and also making sure that claims of treatment efficacy and safety are based in truth and outcomes are monitored as they are for other treatments in the USA.

...and there are lots of technologies now that are better and not so relevant to the 1990s-2000s fetal stem cell issues and political dramas. The approaches that use the patients’ own stem cells instead of some others are more appealing for many reasons. But applications are still somewhat limited, for all stem cell therapies...

Yep, the fetal stem cell argument and blaming Prolife folks is no longer relevant. You would have to be hiding under a rock to hang onto that point. Stem cell therapy is the future. I am just hoping they SOON figure out a way to replace cartilage and meniscus instead of knees.

This is the last I’ll post on here since the thread has zero to do with kitesurfing.
Pro-lifers are the single most influential reason why research has lagged behind in the US and why (if you want to full plethora of stem treatments made available) you have to look elsewhere. Go compare legislation from different countries.
