Transcript
00:00So one of the patients that I saw was a young lady who had been trying to get pregnant for many years
00:05and had gone through multiple cycles of IVF with no result at all.
00:10She'd essentially given up hope that she was ever going to have a child
00:13and so decided to try a UCF treatment to see if we could stimulate the ovaries to produce a baby.
00:22After the second treatment, I got a phone call and she said that she was pregnant naturally with her partner.
00:28So that was an amazing thing.
00:31Nine months later, she texted me a photo of the newborn baby
00:36and that was very exciting to share in that happiness that she had
00:40and to see the baby that I was partially responsible for creating.
00:44When you're looking at the blood profile, you're looking essentially at someone who's gone through menopause
00:49and then after treatment, it's a young woman who's in the prime of her fertility.
00:58So think of it this way.
01:15Stem cell is a blank slate of all your DNA.
01:18It's a cell that hasn't become a specialized cell yet.
01:21Our whole body is made up of cells.
01:23The most functional part of your body, the smallest functional part of your body is a cell.
01:29Tissues are essentially cells that are held together.
01:32So they're cells that are contiguous, if you will.
01:35So if you think about it, that stem cell is basically a replacement part.
01:39Stem cells are the cells in your body that are responsible for keeping up all the tissues in the body.
01:45So they're responsible as you age or as you get injured or as you get diseases
01:49in keeping all the different parts of your body healthy and working in working order.
01:54So they do two things.
01:55Stem cells are capable of replicating themselves, so making more of themselves.
01:59And they can also do what's called differentiate, which means give rise to other types of cells.
02:04In fact, if you did not have stem cells, you could only live for about an hour
02:08because the tissues would exhaust and there would be nothing there to repair and maintain and heal that tissue.
02:14When I began treating patients with stem cells, I really would not have believed the results
02:20had I not seen them myself.
02:21And I come from very conventional, rigorous training at Hopkins.
02:26I really have been blown away by what I've seen.
02:30We had a patient present to us one time with a traumatic brain injury.
02:34She had fallen two stories and was not found for about 24 to 48 hours.
02:41She was several months in a coma, and by the time she presented to us,
02:47she was two years post-injury, so she had been chronic.
02:51And she was not able to walk.
02:54She was not able to talk.
02:56And the only thing she could do was type us notes because she couldn't use her voice to communicate.
03:02She had gone to the Internet with her brain injury and searched for other opportunities
03:09and discovered that maybe stem cell treatments were something that could help her.
03:14When she came back for her second treatment three months later,
03:17she walked into the office speaking full sentences and telling us about how it was disgusting
03:24that she, with her, as she put it, half-brain, had to go to the Internet to come up with solutions
03:30that the best doctors in the world were not telling her about or didn't even know about.
03:35This is why we do regenerative medicine, and this is why we fight for patients
03:38to have this opportunity to try alternative things like stem cell treatment.
03:43We had an Alzheimer's patient who was on the decline with over a two-and-a-half-year diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
03:50You get an MRI volumetric study of his brain, and his brain was at the 5 percentile level.
03:56A year later, it was up to the 28 percentile, and two years later, it was up to 48 or 50 percentile.
04:02He went from being dysfunctional to being able to drive again, play golf, and do his normal activities.
04:08It was almost unheard of.
04:09It is magic that's happening every day, and the beauty of it is that it's not even magic.
04:15It's your own body's ability to heal, and we're just cranking it up and telling it to go.
04:19We work with hundreds of doctors, and almost all of them are clamoring to have us treat them.
04:25On a regular basis, I get phone calls, can you treat me?
04:28Can you treat my wife?
04:29Can you treat my kids?
04:30I have to tell you that I have never in my life seen any new treatment or medication come around
04:35in, you know, 30 years being a surgeon that any doctor was rushing with his family to try on themselves first.
04:43If you look at throughout history of stem cell therapy, the first stem cell therapy was bone marrow transplant.
04:57So that happened about 70 years ago, and people just didn't know that they were doing stem cell therapy.
05:02They thought they were just transplanting bone marrow, and they didn't know that there were stem cells in the bone marrow.
05:07The problem with bone marrow is, A, it's very painful to take out unless you give somebody a general anesthesia.
05:13It really hurts.
05:15And B, when you do harvest bone marrow, 100 cc's of bone marrow, even with a good harvest, may yield maybe up to 100,000 stem cells.
05:23So you don't get that many cells out of bone marrow.
05:26While everybody was working on bone marrow, we had some studies on fat, and it turned out that fat had this huge number of stem cells in it.
05:34In fact, 25 cc's of concentrated fat could have anywhere from one to one and a half million stem cells per cc.
05:43We can get about 500 times more stem cells from fat tissue than what we can get from bone marrow.
05:50The process that we use here in the clinic is we remove a sample of fat tissue.
05:54This is all done under local anesthesia, meaning that the patient remains awake.
05:58We numb just below the skin so that we can isolate a small sample of fat tissue, about the size of a stick of butter.
06:05We then use what's called density centrifugation.
06:09We spin the sample so that we can separate the cells based on how heavy they are.
06:14For example, your red blood cells, which have iron, are going to be very heavy and go to the bottom.
06:18Your fat cells, which are buoyant, are going to go to the top.
06:22And the cells of interest, which are the stem cells, are going to be more in the middle.
06:25So we can pull out those cells, which can then be applied right back to the same patient.
06:32So that's, you know, kind of the hierarchy.
06:34You've got PRP, bone marrow, you've got SVF, and you've got mesenchymal stem cells.
06:40And then the last one is the newest kid on the block, is getting cells out of birth tissue.
06:48So if you think about the birth tissue, it's on day one or day zero of our human life.
06:54These are the cells that can continue to send signals to the baby to allow them to regenerate or to develop.
07:02Umbilical cords themselves are obtained from healthy babies' umbilical cords.
07:07So they screen mothers for different diseases to make sure that you have healthy mothers.
07:12And then from there, they screen the baby's umbilical cords, the blood, the cells themselves, for different diseases.
07:18Birth tissue actually have a full composite of different types of stem cells.
07:24And their properties are actually more potent than what's existing in our body.
07:29It's actually more potent than what's existing in the baby, not to mention a 20 or 40 or 60, 80-year-old person.
07:36So the umbilical cord-derived tissue actually are obtained from life-healthy births that has gone through extensive screening.
07:46And those are the tissue that otherwise would have been thrown into the biological wastebasket.
07:50But now we can capitalize on the regenerative potential of those cells.
07:55What I think is going to happen is that as we learn about stem cells,
07:59we may find that there are different types of stem cells that are perfect for different conditions.
08:06I'm sure that when we first discovered antibiotics, it was penicillin.
08:11And we thought, that's it. Fantastic.
08:13We have antibiotics. We can kill all bacteria.
08:17But that wasn't the case.
08:18There's currently about 500,000 people a year that go through a knee replacement in the United States.
08:31And that figure is expected to rise to 3 million in the next 10 to 15 years.
08:37I would advise anybody against a total knee replacement until they have tried stem cell therapy.
08:45And I'm saying this not just because I think stem cell therapy is amazing, but because I've seen studies.
08:52There was one study that compared people who have, who needed bilateral knee replacement
08:56because both their knees were dysfunctional.
08:59So what they did was that these 30 people, one knee, they did a total knee replacement.
09:05The other knee, they actually gave stem cell therapy.
09:08And they compared over the long run how both groups did.
09:12Out of the 30 knees from these 30 people that got stem cell therapy, only one actually needed a knee replacement.
09:21But for the people who did the knee replacement, not only there are a lot more side effects,
09:26you know, where the stem cell therapy didn't have any side effects.
09:29But the people who got knee replacement, the knees that got knee replacement,
09:33six of the 30 needed revision surgery, which means that things were not doing well,
09:39that they have to do the surgery again.
09:42In the largest orthopedic study using stem cells from fat tissue,
09:4793% of the patients demonstrated improvement in the functionality, their range of motion, and reduction of pain.
09:54There's no pharmaceutical or surgery on the planet that has this kind of response rate.
09:59So I'd love to tell you about a patient who came to me having had multiple spine surgeries.
10:06He had hardware extending from the top of the lumbar spine, L1, all the way down to the pelvis.
10:13He had pain and disability for 13 years, starting with a small surgery and then domino effect,
10:20multiple surgeries, and then coming to see me.
10:22He had low back pain, buttock pain, leg pain, foot pain, rib and mid-back pain,
10:29deformity above the area of his previous surgery, neck pain, arm pain,
10:34and a disc herniation in the neck causing the arm and neck symptoms.
10:39We approached his situation with a full spine regenerative treatment.
10:44Six months after treatment, 100% neck pain relief, 100% arm pain relief, 100% thoracic, mid-spine relief,
10:53100% buttock and leg pain relief.
10:56He has one foot that still has 30% of the pain, which again, this pain had been present for 13 years.
11:02And he has been able to golf, hike in Costa Rica.
11:08It really shows that the boundaries of what regenerative medicine can do are being pushed every day.
11:15And we can do so much more than we thought even a few years ago.
11:19One of the patients I treated with UCF is a woman who had rheumatoid arthritis,
11:24and she'd been suffering with this for many years.
11:28Now, rheumatoid, unlike osteoarthritis, is very difficult to treat
11:33because it's more of a systemic disease.
11:35It affects multiple joints.
11:37There's not a single joint that you can inject into and get a result from it.
11:42This woman had very, very deformed fingers and joints.
11:46She couldn't straighten her fingers out.
11:48She couldn't do the activities that she was used to doing.
11:52She used to be a piano player, wasn't playing the piano anymore.
11:56So three months after her first treatment, the bones in her fingers had straightened.
12:02She didn't have the deformity anymore.
12:05And she said, come here, I want to show you something.
12:08We went into the lounge room.
12:10She sat down at her piano and just began to play.
12:13I was speechless when I saw her do this.
12:15She'd really regained that function back and that passion for what she used to do.
12:20And one example that I can talk about is a patient who had a partial tear of his triceps tendon.
12:25He had tried everything conservatively and was actually on the schedule for surgery for us to perform a repair.
12:31In his case, what we would have had to do was actually complete the tear and then refix it
12:37and then begin the rehab process.
12:39At the last minute, he decided to try a stem cell injection.
12:43And not only was his pain relieved, but we were able to perform a repeat MRI.
12:47And where we saw a nearly torn tendon on the MRI previously, we now saw a completely normal and healthy tendon.
12:54As a professional ball player, we're always trying to chase velocity.
13:01You know, what can get us to the next level?
13:03What can make us that much better?
13:04And velocity, throwing harder is one of those things.
13:07You know, from a young age, actually, you know, I always felt like most kids feel like they can get to the pros
13:12and they have that dream.
13:14But I just, I really believed it.
13:16And then one day, I just felt like, you know, not right.
13:20So I got an MRI and we did find out that it had a slap tear, a superior labrum anterior-posterior.
13:28So you got to realize at this time, I'm in the minor leagues.
13:31I'm not in the major leagues where a lot of people, you know, envision a professional athlete being.
13:37And so, like, the option for me was you're going to rehab it.
13:41And if you can't get it right with rehab, then you got to get surgery.
13:44Like, that's the only option.
13:46I'm thinking, man, if I get surgery right now, that's, in a sense, a death sentence to my career.
13:51You know, a year of rehab after surgery, then you got to build up.
13:55And now I'm in my upper 20s, you know, so we tried everything.
13:59All these different techniques with deep tissue, massage, strengthening, and just nothing was working.
14:06There's just been a ton of athletes that have been getting stem cells, you know, a lot of world-class athletes.
14:12And I thought, well, I got to look a little bit more into this.
14:15And that's when I met Dr. McGee.
14:18I met with Dr. McGee, and I got my, you know, first dose of stem cells.
14:23And I saw a slight improvement, not a huge improvement.
14:27I went again, and he threw in some PRP with it, the stem cells and the PRP, which is platelet-rich plasma.
14:32And I went back to Florida for the first time.
14:36I remember going out there and throwing and being like, holy smokes, like, this is better than before.
14:40People around me were shocked.
14:43I went from months of not being able to throw it like over 50%, let's just say.
14:50I mean, if I tried to get any zip on it, it would just bark.
14:53My arm did not feel good at all.
14:55And I could not let it fly to the point where I'm going out there and I'm throwing stuff on a line.
15:02I'm getting up there.
15:03Now I'm throwing long toss.
15:04And then I'm getting into, you know, pitching off the mound.
15:07I'm throwing into some practice games.
15:08In my first practice game, I think I hit 95.
15:10That was probably the hardest pitch I had ever thrown even before when I was healthy.
15:16You know, it got to the point where I'm pitching in these games, and now I'm hitting 96, where these guys are turning their heads thinking, holy smokes, this guy was, you know, days, weeks away from getting surgery.
15:25Well, it definitely was an absolute miracle.
15:28And here I am, you know, just looking around the stadium, realizing, hey, like, this is what I've always dreamed of doing.
15:36So a no-hitter in baseball, for those that don't know, is basically the pitchers on one team throw nine innings or a complete game, whatever it is, without giving up a hit.
15:50I was part of a combined no-hitter.
15:51I started the first two innings, and then a guy named Felix Pena, my teammate, came in for the final seven innings, and neither one of us gave up the hit.
16:00So it's a really special thing and something that, you know, we'll remember forever.
16:05In my opinion, I've seen firsthand how stem cells have affected me and my career.
16:11I remember calling my wife and my mom and my dad and saying, like, I can't possibly see how my arm's going to get better, and I'm going to reach my dream and get to the big leagues.
16:18I feel like I'm letting you guys down if I don't get there.
16:20I was at that point, so all of a sudden, not giving up, having some miracles happen, meeting Dr. McGee, you know, getting these injections.
16:28And all of a sudden, now, here I am, you know, being able to do the thing that I've dreamed my whole life of doing and making my major league debut.
16:36So one of my patients is a professional athlete, very high-level rugby player.
16:44He came to see me with essentially no cartilage left in his knees.
16:49The treatments that they tried previously were things like anti-inflammatory medications, cortisone, steroid injections, and all of these are considered a Band-Aid therapy to reduce the symptoms.
17:01But it doesn't actually repair anything.
17:03He wanted to increase the level of his performance during games.
17:07He wanted to be pain-free, and he wanted a way to do that quickly so he could get back to training without the need for surgery.
17:15I did a stem cell injection for him into both knees.
17:18Within a week, his pain had disappeared.
17:21He was back to training, and now I believe he's one of the highest-paid rugby players in the world.
17:31We've seen a lot of amazing things with stem cell therapy.
17:41We've treated over 10,000 patients using this technology.
17:44We've seen people who were told they were going to be dead in two months with COPD, where you can't breathe, emphysema.
17:51And then they're breathing again, and they're off their oxygen.
17:54You know, we've had kids come in in wheelchairs with nerve pain, and they walk out.
17:58I've seen things that, you know, we were told were impossible when I was in medical school.
18:02Let me tell you, we've seen some amazing things in neurology.
18:06We've worked with a neurosurgeon who's implanted these Omeyer reservoirs.
18:10And this is a little tube that goes right in the ventricle of your brain so we can put some of the cells right in the cerebral spinal fluid.
18:17Another patient that I was involved with is a young woman in her early 30s who was involved in a very bad motor vehicle accident.
18:23And this left her paralyzed, essentially. Her full body was paralyzed.
18:28However, she was still aware, and this is what's known as locked-in syndrome.
18:33So all that she could really do to communicate with us was blink her eyes.
18:38When someone's in this condition, the prognosis is never very good.
18:44There's not a lot of hope.
18:45We decided we would try stem cell therapy to see if we could restore back some motor function.
18:51Got a call from her family.
18:53Come, you have to see our patient.
18:56So we went to see her, and she could move her arm.
19:00No one expected that.
19:01Again, you know, we thought we'd get a few little muscle twitches here and there,
19:04but the fact that she could move that arm was a breakthrough.
19:08After one year, went back to visit her, she was arm-wrestling the nurse.
19:15And we can tell you stories about patients that we've treated multiple times.
19:19I had a patient who was blind from optic neuritis.
19:22I treated her 32 times, and she kept getting better.
19:25She got off all her steroids, didn't need any medication,
19:28actually was able to drive again after about eight or nine treatments.
19:31I've been involved with stem cells, like I say, since 1968.
19:37If you have a heart attack and if you survive, as soon as you can, you want to get stem cells,
19:42and they will go right to this area that's been damaged and help repair.
19:45And so that will help prevent you from having congestive heart failure.
19:49As soon as you do it, the stem cells are in there repairing.
19:52If you don't do it right away, that tissue will slowly rot, basically.
19:57Some of the most amazing results that we've seen is with patients with lung disease, or COPD.
20:04And these patients are oftentimes on 24-7 oxygen.
20:09They can't breathe.
20:11And for patients who have COPD, they know there is no drug on the planet that can reverse.
20:17Once you start going on oxygen, it's just a downward and a rapid downward cycle.
20:22So seeing some of these patients regain some of their functionality and get back to activities that they love,
20:29it just reminds me why I fight for this every single day.
20:39Stem cell therapy can be used to treat your conditions, your pain, and what ails you on the inside.
20:45But stem cells can be used on your face.
20:49They can be used to grow hair.
20:51In fact, it's been used in cosmetics for over 30 years.
20:54When we originally looked at aging face, we thought everybody had to be lifted and pulled because gravity was pulling your skin back.
21:01I'm one of the pioneers in rejuvenation medicine, along with guys like Sidney Coleman and Lisa Donofrio.
21:07Years ago, we were dodging tomatoes because we were telling people,
21:10you should inject fat back into the face because that's why we're aging.
21:13Eventually, I realized the light went on.
21:15I go, oh my God, we're aging because of loss of cells, not because of gravity.
21:20Stem cells will not only grow new blood vessels, they'll grow new fat cells to replace the dying fat cells.
21:26And we have good studies now that show fat and stromal vascular fraction together
21:31will actually repair the collagen tissue and make your skin look better and healthier.
21:36So I use stem cells a lot for aesthetics, for skin rejuvenation.
21:39And what I like about stem cells in the skin is that it gives you a very natural, youthful look.
21:44So we know that stem cells and PRP and exosomes, the way they work is they communicate with your own fibroblasts in the skin.
21:52So those are the cells that end up making collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
21:56So say, for instance, I'm going to inject PRP into a patient's face.
22:02That's going to create an immune response in the skin.
22:06And that immune response leads to inflammation.
22:08Inflammation then leads to repair.
22:11When you inject it into someone's face, the inflammation stimulates collagen formation.
22:17And when you have collagen formation, you have firmer skin, you can have an improved complexion from that as well.
22:23So as you get older, and by older I mean like 25 or so, your body starts making less collagen and elastin.
22:30So what we can do is we can actually give the stem cells back to your skin to tell your fibroblasts to start making more collagen, making more elastin.
22:38So you have better structure in the skin, you have better elasticity, better texture and tone and color, better improvement in fine lines.
22:46So you get a really natural, youthful look that is completely of your own doing without having to add in things like chemicals or fillers or things like that.
22:54So one of the treatments that I developed with stem cells in the cosmetic field was labeled the ultimate stem cell facelift.
23:02And so this took mesenchymal stem cells from a patient's fat, they were expanded over the course of six weeks, and so we had 250 million cells, and then I injected them all through the face and all through the neck.
23:17I showed my colleagues the photos, the before and after photos, and they said, are these photoshopped?
23:25Because the difference that was there was astounding, they couldn't believe it.
23:28We can also use stem cells and PRP and exosomes for hair, for hair restoration for both men and women.
23:34So stem cells for hair can be done in a number of ways.
23:37We can use donated, screened umbilical stem cells, but we can also take your fat, which has the stromal vascular fraction and the stem cells, and rebuild the foundation of your scalp, which is the nourishment, and then put the stem cells on top to regrow your hair.
23:53Over the course of the next three to six months, we'll see increase in number of follicles, as well as the thickness of each follicle.
24:00Now, you do have to have hair follicles to begin with, so if you're totally bald, and you've been totally bald for a long time, then this is not going to work for you.
24:08But if you have some follicles, then doing these injections can really make your hair thicker and more healthy.
24:13Even just giving people back some hair on top of their head, or, you know, clearer skin, brighter skin, more youthful skin, can make a big difference in how they approach the rest of the world.
24:23So, one of my patients is an actress in China, and I gave her a stem cell treatment for facial rejuvenation.
24:32After her treatment, a few months later, I saw her at a film festival, and she came up to me on the red carpet and said,
24:39Thank you so much for that treatment. I feel younger. I have a lot more energy. My skin is just so radiant now.
24:46She said, look at me, and we did a selfie together. And it was great to see how happy she was after that.
24:53In terms of optimizing sexual health and improving sexual function, I think stem cell therapies are game-changing therapies and are revolutionary treatments.
25:08And it definitely can help with both men and women as far as enhancing sensation during sex.
25:17For women, you can do injections into the vaginal wall, and for men, directly into the penis. We call it a corpus cavernosum.
25:24What this does is help to increase blood supply. So, as we age, our blood supply starts to reduce.
25:31So, if you don't have enough blood circulating to the area, in the case of a man, you might not have a strong enough erection.
25:37Erectile dysfunction, words that no man ever wants to hear. Anything you can do to help increase the blood flow is beneficial to that person that is suffering from erectile dysfunction.
25:50I did this therapy, and it's hard to tell you how great it was after the therapy as compared to anything I ever had before.
25:59So, I can truthfully say it was the best sex that I've ever had in my whole life.
26:04These stem cells, when injected into the penis, can actually create nerve regeneration, which is pretty cool, as well as improve blood flow by actually increasing blood vessel formation in the penis.
26:15And they can change the types of cells that are in the penis to make them into healthier cells that are more elastic and more capable of having erections.
26:22So, we've seen this in animal studies and human studies, where we're actually changing the structural architecture of the penis to make it more effective, which I think is pretty awesome.
26:31One patient suffered from Peyronie's, which is an abnormal curvature of the penis.
26:35And with one stem cell treatment, there's a straightening of the penis.
26:40So, the problem was solved with one single treatment.
26:43That, I'm sure, has helped him greatly to feel really good about himself.
26:48A friend of mine who teaches functional medicine, and he always says,
26:55if you're really healthy as a guy, you should wake up in the morning with a hard-on so hard that it hurts.
27:01It's supposed to be harder than Chinese algebra.
27:04I, myself, didn't think that I needed it, and I didn't think that I had a problem.
27:10But I heard that comment, and I thought, well, I'm waking up pretty good, but maybe not that good.
27:16And then I did the Gaines Wave therapy to myself, and then I also injected stem cells into my penis.
27:25And I, like, totally was blown away because I started to wake up in pain.
27:30By injecting those cells, we can now increase the amount of blood circulating to the area,
27:34which can also lead to better orgasms and better lubrication.
27:39And I personally have done these injections into the vaginal wall, and I've had great success with it.
27:43Something we haven't talked about is with women who are trying to get pregnant, whose ovaries are not working.
27:51They can have stem cells, and the stem cells can get those ovaries to work again, and they can start menstruating again.
27:58And so that's pretty exciting.
28:00There has definitely been evidence of stem cells being helpful for female fertility.
28:05They've done studies in animals, and actually it increased the rat ovary size, the number of follicles, and the pregnancies, number of pregnancies, and improved estrogen level.
28:19So it actually enhanced the fertility in the animals.
28:21And I've seen that in my patients as well, helping them to extend their reproductive years.
28:25One of the patients that I treated with the O-Shot was actually, she had been divorced for about 10 years,
28:33was looking to get back into the dating scene, but was a little bit reluctant because she was a little bit older.
28:41She was having issues with lubrication.
28:43I treated her with an O-Shot, and afterwards she said lubrication was much improved, orgasm was much improved,
28:52and this gave her a lot of confidence in her dating life, so she wasn't afraid to go out there and just be herself again.
28:59And then the best thing is when we do it for a man and a woman, and they both feel like they went back 20 years,
29:06a lot of times it kind of rekindles that passion in the relationship, so it's kind of fun for me to hear about that,
29:13and how happy people are with these therapies.
29:16I had a gentleman who was in his 50s, and he had had prostate surgery about four years previous for prostate cancer.
29:23And since that time, he'd had severe erectile dysfunction, so really had no ability to have erections.
29:28And he tried medications, and he tried, you know, all the different things that his doctors had prescribed, and nothing worked.
29:34And his urologist told him that essentially he'd have to have surgery and get an implant, and that was the only thing he could do.
29:40He was 55, and he was young, and he was like, I don't really want to do that.
29:43So he came to me kind of as a last-ditch effort.
29:45So we did a couple of different things.
29:46We did injections into the penis with stem cells derived from fat, with exosomes, with platelet-rich plasma.
29:53We also did a number of low-intensity shockwave therapy treatments, and then followed up with some more platelet-rich plasma.
29:59About three months later, he called me to tell me that he had had sex with his wife for the first time in four years.
30:05He felt a lot closer to his wife than he previously did, and that he'd also regained a confidence that he didn't even realize he'd lost,
30:12and that he was looking at the world differently and was very happy.
30:15One thing I'm so excited about stem cells is that it can prolong life, not just prolonging, but giving you a better quality of life.
30:33If you think about it, we're always, all our cells are constantly dying, but we're constantly replacing them with stem cells.
30:40And at some point, you don't have enough stem cells to replace your dying parts.
30:44If you get old enough, your heart just runs out of enough cells, contract, boom, that's the end of the game.
30:49Everybody's concerned about the length of your telomere and everything about anti-aging medicines.
30:53How do we preserve the length of your telomere so cells can live longer?
30:57Telomeres essentially tell us our age. You can think of them as shoelace caps.
31:03So when you have your shoelace and you have that little plastic piece on the end of the shoelace,
31:07it's what prevents your shoelace from unraveling.
31:11And at the end of every single one of our DNA, we have this little cap, which is the telomeres,
31:18and it's what prevents our DNA from unraveling.
31:21So as our telomeres shorten, we start to get cells and DNA that's unraveling,
31:27and eventually we all die of shortened telomeres.
31:30So the ability to keep your telomeres as long as possible in as many cells as possible is essentially the fountain of youth.
31:38This is what determines our age and how long we're going to live.
31:41They've done studies on animals, mostly mice and rats.
31:47And because they have a short lifespan, you can actually study whether or not it can extend lifespan.
31:51In most of the established animal research with stem cells or therapeutic blood exchange between young mice and old mice,
32:01what we've seen is that you can increase the average lifespan of a mouse by about 30%.
32:09So one study that's fairly recent was 2019 on these mice, on these old mice.
32:16What happened was that they gave them young mice a bone marrow transplant.
32:21And these old mice are actually at a human equivalent age of 75.
32:26And at that point, they started to give them regular transplant of young mice stem cells.
32:33So the young mice are only 3 to 15 weeks old, and these mice are 15 months old.
32:38When they got the stem cells, the group got stem cells, actually lived three times as long as the group that did not get stem cells.
32:45So the remaining time in our life actually is three times as long.
32:54This is like having car parts.
32:57So right now, you take care of your car, you change your oil, you do everything to maintain your car as healthy as you can.
33:03But ultimately, when a car part breaks down, you have a replacement part.
33:07The replacement parts of medicine should have typically been complete organ transplant.
33:12But now we can give them to you in the form of cells.
33:15So with cell therapy, once the telomere shrinks and the cell dies, you can replace it.
33:20And guess what?
33:21You start with a new telomere.
33:22May not be as long as the original one.
33:25The cell might not live as long, but who cares?
33:27Instead of getting seven years out of a cell, if you get five years out of the cell and you can keep replacing it,
33:32that's okay, as long as you have replacement parts.
33:38As we age, we have an escalating level of inflammation.
33:42So inflammation will prevent regeneration.
33:49It's almost like the disease is the house caught on fire, right?
33:53Your body is the house, and when it shows up as disease, the house has caught on fire.
33:58So when we can reduce the level of inflammation, we can also reduce the chance of us catching disease or decline with aging.
34:08And that's where the stem cells can come in with these very potent anti-inflammatory effects
34:13that it can prevent this train from going down the route of disease and aging.
34:21This is definitely a very exciting time to be alive because this is the first time in history
34:27we actually are getting as close as possible to the fountain of youth.
34:33We have not seen it existing any time in our history.
34:37This is the first time we actually have found these intelligent cells that we can give back to the body,
34:45that we can bring back the youth.
34:47This is how you have seen certain celebrities like Jennifer Lopez
34:51actually having this reversal of aging.
34:54This is the first time it's happening in history.
34:57A lot of people think that you're going to be old for that time.
35:02But if you can live for that amount of time, healthy and young and feeling that energy,
35:08that is really something that I think a lot of people would like to do.
35:12No one wants to give up their time on this planet with their loved ones, with their family.
35:16One of my patients, he's an older gentleman in his 60s.
35:21He had a couple of UCF treatments with me.
35:24And afterwards, he claimed that he felt like a teenager again.
35:28He had this vigor and vitality.
35:32And people that hadn't seen him for a while would say,
35:34what have you done?
35:34You've done something.
35:35He was back training again.
35:37He got himself a personal trainer.
35:39He was doing, you know, these long workouts that I couldn't do.
35:46For myself personally, I'm already using stem cells in more of an anti-aging capacity.
35:52I get a dose of stem cells every 6 to 12 months
35:55because I don't want to wait until I don't feel good or until something's wrong with me.
35:59I feel better now than I did in my 30s.
36:01And I'm 43 years old.
36:03I want to stay on top of it.
36:04I want to stay as young and feeling good for as long as possible.
36:09I'm at an age where most of my friends are retiring from medicine.
36:12And I feel like a kid who just got out of residency and was practicing medicine again.
36:17My own personal treatment, I feel like someone half my age.
36:20What I can attest to with my UCF treatment was that I really felt that energy boost.
36:34So one of the things that drove me to be a surgeon as opposed to a physician
36:39was the fact that I could see a problem and fix it straight away,
36:44perform a surgery and have a result.
36:47As much as I love traditional Western medicine,
36:50there are a lot of limitations,
36:52especially when it comes to chronic conditions like COPD,
36:55like liver cirrhosis, like diabetes.
36:58We are very good at acute medicine.
36:59We've got great surgeons.
37:00We've got great for trauma.
37:02We've got ICU.
37:03I mean, we do amazing that.
37:05And we're progressing every day.
37:07As soon as we move to chronic disorders, we are a disaster.
37:11We have a system that keeps patients sick.
37:14We don't make them better.
37:15We fight against the body.
37:17We have antibiotic, antiviral, anti-hypertensive.
37:21So it's anti-everything.
37:22It's anti-the body.
37:24We fight in the body instead of giving the right environment
37:27for the body to heal because it knows how to do it.
37:30What I've seen with stem cell therapy
37:32is that it's incredibly powerful
37:34because it's not utilizing a single drug.
37:37It's actually using the intelligence of the cell
37:39that can give you many, many different kinds
37:42of growth factors and signals
37:43and attacking the body from so many angles.
37:46And what I've seen, the results,
37:48have been pretty astounding.
37:50Now, in internal medicine,
37:52a lot of the therapies are what we call band-aid therapies.
37:56So they're treating symptoms only
37:58and really just slowing the progression of diseases.
38:03Now, with cellular therapy,
38:05it's very much like surgery,
38:07except I'm replacing the scalpel with cells.
38:11You see the root cause,
38:13you treat it, and you get a result.
38:15A lot of my patients come to me
38:17and say that their regular doctor says,
38:19yes, stem cell medicine, it might be okay,
38:22but we don't know enough yet.
38:24It's still in research,
38:25maybe in the future, don't do it.
38:28I have a lot of friends, doctor friends, in fact,
38:31who don't believe in stem cells.
38:33They'll say, I don't believe in stem cells,
38:34which I think is crazy
38:35because there are thousands of studies out there
38:38that show the efficacy of stem cells.
38:40They show us that stem cells work.
38:42I think the medical industry in general
38:45is very conservative
38:47about their response to stem cell therapy.
38:50Everybody says, that's voodoo.
38:51It doesn't work.
38:52It's anecdotal.
38:53These guys aren't for real.
38:55You shouldn't go to them.
38:56There's no studies that stem cell work.
38:58And yet people are desperate.
39:00So they come in here and we treat them
39:02and they get better.
39:03Now, we're still trying to figure out
39:05exactly what types of stem cells work the best
39:07for different types of ailments
39:08and in what quantity
39:09and how should we deliver them?
39:11We didn't know how aspirin worked
39:13when we started using it.
39:16People are still saying there's no evidence.
39:18My answer to them is, have you ever looked?
39:21I really wanted to provide the best stem cells
39:24for my patients.
39:26And in the process of finding out what's the best,
39:29I have accumulated lots and lots of articles
39:31of comparisons directly between stem cells
39:35from a person's bone marrow, fat tissue,
39:38and the birth tissue.
39:39And that gives you all the scientific evidence.
39:41It's all based on research studies.
39:44So none of them was my opinion.
39:47It's all by research that people have done over the years.
39:50There are literally thousands of studies
39:52indexed on PubMed, which are peer-reviewed journals
39:57demonstrating the efficacy and the safety
40:00of regenerative medicine and stem cell therapy.
40:02We have published more than anyone in the world
40:04with regards to the use of stem cells from fat tissue
40:07in a variety of different indications.
40:09We've even published the largest safety trial to date,
40:13over 600 patients demonstrating that these cells
40:16can safely be used in neurological conditions,
40:19systemic conditions, and orthopedics.
40:22So the evidence is there.
40:23It's about whether or not we're looking
40:25and we are being open-minded enough
40:29to actually accept this new branch of medicine.
40:33We have the technology to delve deeper into the cells.
40:38You're going from a very, very small cell
40:41into a nanoparticle,
40:43and those nanoparticles are exosomes.
40:45They have benefits as well,
40:47which might be beyond what we're even dealing with now.
40:50Probably about 150 different clinics
40:52are using our technology,
40:53and everyone's getting the same outcomes, good or bad.
40:56Everyone's seeing the same thing.
40:58So it's not a niche-y, you know,
41:00this is, oh, look what these guys did,
41:01and what's the hat trick here.
41:03It's that there's something very powerful going on here.
41:06We don't have to keep people on medicine chronically.
41:09We can stop the opioid crisis right now.
41:12I had a patient just write to me,
41:13literally three days ago,
41:15I was taking three Vicodin a day,
41:17and now I'm off of everything, and I have no pain.
41:20And they go, they can't believe it.
41:21This is not anecdotal stuff.
41:23This is surgical evidence.
41:25These are your own cells healing you,
41:28and these are your optimal healing cells.
41:30We just have to be luckier than the devil
41:32that they're in your adipose tissue.
41:33Any time a new therapy comes forward,
41:52there's always going to be concerns,
41:53and a lot of this has to do with the fear of the unknown.
41:56There are concerns with embryonic stem cells
42:00and their potential to form tumors.
42:02The challenge with the embryonic stem cells
42:04is that they're a bit like wildfire.
42:07Fetal tissue, fetal stem cells,
42:09all of that is designed to make an entire body in nine months.
42:14So those cells are used to replicating and growing very fast.
42:18The adult stem cells, however,
42:20have been shown for many decades to not have that factor
42:25as a thing for patients to be afraid of.
42:28They don't form cancer or promote cancer.
42:30There's never been a shred of evidence that they do.
42:32I can tell you in over 10,000 cases within our network,
42:35we've never had single infection
42:37from stromovascular fraction itself.
42:40The concept that these cells could then start rapidly dividing
42:44or causing cancer just because we injected them into circulation
42:47is just something that we've never seen come true.
42:51Some critics will say that there's not enough
42:54double-blind placebo-controlled studies.
42:57It's actually quite difficult for a number of reasons.
42:59The trials are very expensive.
43:01It's very hard to get funding.
43:03Large trials like this are done with pharmaceuticals,
43:06and the funding for doing these trials
43:09comes from pharmaceutical companies.
43:11And the reason that they would fund those trials
43:13is because in the end,
43:15they have something to bottle and sell,
43:17to recoup the money that they might have spent
43:19on a large double-blind study.
43:21Now, if the technology is inside you and it's your own cells,
43:24there's nothing to bottle and sell.
43:27So there would be no reason for pharmaceutical companies
43:29to fund a large double-blind placebo-controlled trial,
43:33and the government doesn't fund these trials.
43:35So as a result, there is a lack of these studies going on.
43:38Another reason why it's hard to do these, you know,
43:41placebo, so to speak, studies is that
43:43we do this as a surgical procedure,
43:46and there's ethical issues associated with
43:48doing a surgical procedure on someone,
43:51removing part of their body,
43:52taking some fat out,
43:54and then on half of those people,
43:55you throw that in the trash
43:57and tell them they may have gotten placebo
43:59or maybe they got the real thing.
44:00It's not as simple as just a drug study
44:03where you can take a bottle off a shelf
44:05and the patient doesn't know if it's a real pill or a sugar pill.
44:07I mean, I did pharmacology for eight years.
44:10I did research just in pharmacology,
44:12and it's a perfect model for drugs.
44:14When you talk regenerative medicine,
44:17we don't do that.
44:17As doctors, we've been taking, you know,
44:20parts of bodies and moving them to other parts of the bodies
44:22for centuries, and it's been working.
44:25So I think that stem cells,
44:27the way that we're using them,
44:28the mesenchymal stem cells,
44:29really aren't something the FDA needs to be involved in,
44:32but they disagree with that.
44:34We have every government going against
44:36and blocking more and more stem cells.
44:38So, for example, in Australia,
44:40you're not allowed to have the word stem cells on our website.
44:43You cannot say about stem cells.
44:45It cannot explain.
44:46Can you imagine the change
44:48to this multibillion-dollar industry
44:52if you do not need an opioid medication
44:55or an anti-inflammatory that's a prescription for your pain,
44:59if you don't need medication for your MS,
45:03for your Parkinson's, for your ALS?
45:06You know, when someone's working over decades in labs
45:09trying to produce something,
45:09and then someone goes, circumvents them,
45:12and then clinicians are able to provide
45:14similar, compatible, maybe even superior therapies
45:18rapidly and for very low cost,
45:21it's a disruptive technology,
45:23and it definitely gets people's attention.
45:27So this year, it was actually Sunday, Palm Sunday,
45:32a week before Easter.
45:33I got a phone call from my attorneys in Washington, D.C.,
45:38and they emailed me what was then a draft lawsuit.
45:42The draft lawsuit read the United States of America
45:46versus Kristen Camela and the clinic and the organization.
45:53The lawyers told me, you know, on behalf of our client,
45:56which was the Food and Drug Administration
45:59and their attorneys are the Department of Justice,
46:02we intend to file this lawsuit against Kristen Camela
46:06and the organizations unless they sign what is called a consent decree.
46:11And the consent decree read that basically we were to stop doing these procedures
46:17using a patient's own stem cells in an outpatient medical setting
46:21because they deem the stem cells from a patient to be a drug.
46:27A Florida stem cell clinic sued.
46:30I-Team investigator Katie LeGron tonight first started reporting
46:33on stem cell clinics last month,
46:35and tonight she speaks to the woman who's crying foul
46:37and the business owner who's fighting back.
46:39U.S. stem cell still offers experimental therapies
46:42for a wide range of conditions despite FDA warnings
46:46and a recent Department of Justice lawsuit calling on them to stop.
46:50So last May, the Department of Justice filed a lawsuit
46:55at the request of the FDA against stem cell clinics
46:58that were performing surgical procedures involving your own fat cells,
47:03taking out fat cells out of your own body
47:05and reusing them because they are regenerative.
47:08You just take them out, put them in a centrifuge,
47:11and that is now considered to be a drug.
47:14What the FDA is trying to do right now
47:16is to say that your cells are a drug
47:19and that you don't have the right to have your cells to treat your condition.
47:25By labeling it a drug, how it's manufactured,
47:28how it's distributed, how it's researched, how it's licensed,
47:32everything changes.
47:33And it becomes just like all the other drugs
47:36that, you know, are currently in the pipeline for the stem cell products.
47:40You know, when doctors started doing coronary bypass surgery,
47:43you know, they thought that's the greatest.
47:44And the drug companies came along and said,
47:46well, we can make drugs that will make that unnecessary.
47:49They're free to compete,
47:50but we should be free to compete with them as well.
47:52If you ask a patient,
47:54do you want to wait until somebody funds large double-blind placebo-controlled trials
47:59before you try to use your own cells to heal you?
48:03Or do you want to try this now?
48:04Patients are going to say,
48:05I don't have the luxury of time.
48:07I want to try and use my own cells to heal.
48:10You know, the funny thing about medicine
48:12is doctors used to be the king of the hill.
48:14There was the doctors,
48:15and they went through the hospitals and everybody down the road.
48:18And you got your insurance people,
48:19and, you know, politicians were really out of medicine.
48:22You can flip that whole thing upside down.
48:24The politicians, the regulatory agencies,
48:27the insurance companies, the hospital,
48:28everybody dictates how we're going to run medicine.
48:30The doctor's at the bottom of the pile now.
48:32And it's really sad because we have the ability
48:34to really help people right now,
48:36but we have to fight with everybody,
48:38you know, to, you know, come up for air, so to speak.
48:40And we have to tell our government that I am not a drug.
48:44I am not made of a drug.
48:45And I have a right to choose a medical procedure
48:49and to consent with this procedure
48:51with my medical professional,
48:53and that this is not something
48:54that the United States of America
48:56should prevent Americans from having.
48:59Nobody is going to invest in autologous
49:02from your own body cell point-of-care procedures
49:05as a business model
49:07because you can't patent it
49:09and you can't distribute it to a lot of people,
49:11and there's no return on investment.
49:13It's just doctors who'd be doing this.
49:14And if doctors are prevented from doing it
49:16because it's been labeled a drug,
49:18the work that's being done by myself
49:20and the hundreds and hundreds of other clinicians
49:22here and around the world
49:23to move this science forward,
49:25that work has been marginalized.
49:28I haven't changed the character of the cell.
49:31I don't do anything to your DNA
49:32to add or subtract from it.
49:34I don't add anything to it to change it.
49:36So I haven't made anything.
49:38In fact, if anything, you've manufactured it.
49:40In fact, I don't own it.
49:42You own it.
49:46And I did not sign that consent decree
50:07because I've seen enough patients
50:09get out of their wheelchair and walk again
50:11to know that this is something that we have to fight.
50:14Because stem cells are relying on your own body stem cells
50:26to start regenerating tissue,
50:29the importance of lifestyle cannot be understated.
50:32So things like what you're putting into your body
50:34from a food perspective, exercise,
50:37as well as sort of alternative therapies
50:39like using light therapy
50:40and using nitric oxide therapy
50:42and things like that are really important
50:44to make the stem cells work better.
50:46These are all really important issues.
50:48So you want to have a healthy diet.
50:50You don't want to be eating junk food.
50:53You don't want to be smoking.
50:54And you want to take care of your teeth.
50:56If you want a true benefit,
50:58you have to cut out the things
51:00that are causing the damage first.
51:02I see some of the toughest cases in our community.
51:14So I work in a place where a lot of spine surgeons work
51:18and there are a lot of people who won't see revisions,
51:21patients that have had multiple surgeries,
51:23patients with chronic neck pain,
51:25chronic leg pain, back pain.
51:26And because I have a lot of experience
51:29in revising those surgically,
51:31I continue to see these patients with tough problems.
51:34And now with regenerative medicine,
51:37I'm able to say I have another tool.
51:40There is hope.
51:41I never thought that when I started med school
51:44that I would be doing this.
51:45I thought I would be seeing patients
51:47and treating ailments
51:49and doing the stereotypical doctor things.
51:52You know, I really look at myself and I think
51:54this is an amazing opportunity that you have,
51:58that you can make a difference in these people's lives
52:01and you can make a difference to so many people.
52:03One of the most rewarding things that we've encountered
52:06is seeing patients who've tried many other treatments
52:09and have been very intelligent about their research
52:12and searching out how to get themselves better.
52:16They've tried everything that they could come across
52:18from injections to oral medications.
52:20And some of them have even gone through surgeries
52:22and still are not able to do the activities they enjoy.
52:25Then we introduce a new type of procedure,
52:29like an injection with a stem cell, for example,
52:31and suddenly they're better,
52:33they're back to what they're doing,
52:35and they're happier than they've ever been.
52:37We as doctors have a chance to do something very special,
52:40and that's helped a lot of people
52:41at a very inexpensive price and do it immediately.
52:44I had one patient who had a stroke
52:47and I gave him, he was 82 years old
52:50and he had his right arm paralyzed
52:52and I gave him stem cells and within an hour,
52:54he's saying, look, I can move my arm.
52:58Dr. Steenberg, you're amazing.
53:00This is crazy.
53:02How can you beat that?
53:03There was an autistic little girl, six-year-old,
53:06and she had been wearing a diaper
53:09because she could not use the bathroom.
53:12She was not able to talk.
53:14And then she came to me
53:15for umbilical cord-derived stem cells.
53:18And then after stem cell therapy,
53:20she was able to be potty trained.
53:22She started to talk.
53:23She started to be able to communicate.
53:25She had this hypotonia
53:27where she couldn't walk up the stairs.
53:29So at six years old,
53:30parents were still taking her up and down the stairs.
53:33But after stem cell treatment,
53:34she could climb up and down the stairs on her own.
53:37So to be able to make that kind of difference
53:39and to help the parents,
53:42you know, I've seen autistic children's parents
53:44being some of the most beautiful,
53:46selfless, and loving people.
53:48And to be able to bring that kind of hope for them,
53:51it's incredibly satisfying.
53:56My patient who had a spinal cord injury,
53:59he came, we removed his fat,
54:01we gave him his first treatment.
54:03And when he came to my clinic,
54:05he was using a power wheelchair.
54:07He had minimal use of his arms,
54:10no real coordination in his hands.
54:13So he was technically almost a quadriplegic.
54:16When he came back,
54:18he was in a push wheelchair.
54:21And I said, oh my goodness,
54:22what's going on?
54:24This is great.
54:25And in his physical therapy,
54:26he's now able to stand up and sit down.
54:31And he is working towards being independent
54:35and getting his life back,
54:37all because of stem cells.
54:39And we had a guy who was an award-winning composer,
54:42couldn't barely walk,
54:43couldn't play the piano.
54:44He's playing the piano,
54:45composing again,
54:46life of the party.
54:47People can attack you,
54:48they can claim that you're a quack,
54:50you're crazy, whatever.
54:51But when you see results like that,
54:54over and over again,
54:55you can't help but get up in the morning and say,
54:58this is so exciting.
54:59I got to get to the office
55:00and see more people
55:01and help more people
55:02because as doctors,
55:03what else are we here for
55:05but to help people get better?
55:06In my 18 years of taking care of patients
55:17with spine disease and neurologic disease,
55:19I have seen nothing as powerfully game-changing
55:22as stem cell medicine.
55:24One of my personal goals
55:25is to spread the word about this
55:27and really decrease the number of fusions
55:30that are done all over the world.
55:32I also envision the chronic neurodegenerative diseases
55:35such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, MS
55:37to be treated much more effectively
55:39with regenerative medicine.
55:41We've helped countless people
55:43avoid joint surgery.
55:46We've helped them to become pain-free
55:48from their autoimmune disease.
55:51Already, I don't see how people can say
55:53that it's 10 to 20 years away
55:55when this is what I'm seeing right now.
55:57Well, what a fun time.
55:59This is like being the Rocky
56:00of the medical industry.
56:02We're the underdog right now,
56:04but we're doing some really neat things.
56:06I don't know if you've ever heard
56:07of Arthur Schopenhauer,
56:08but he always says
56:09there's three phases of new truth.
56:11First, it's ridicule.
56:12Then it's violently opposed
56:13and ultimately it's accepted
56:15as having been self-evident.
56:16We knew it all along.
56:18I don't think we're ever going to find
56:19anything better than stem cells
56:20and all we're going to do
56:22is tweak it around a little bit.
56:25We change this, we add this.
56:26There's all these things
56:27that we're doing to make it better,
56:29but still, it is fantastic
56:32the way it is right now.
56:33I don't think there's any question
56:34that in the next five to 10 years,
56:37everyone in orthopedic surgery
56:39and sports medicine
56:40would be using stem cells
56:41to some degree
56:42as a part of their practice.
56:43Like all technology,
56:44like mobile phones and computers,
56:46as we develop it
56:48and as it gets better,
56:50it's going to become cheaper
56:51and available to a wider audience.
56:54People don't understand this.
56:56We're in a new era of medicine
56:57and it's not just regenerative
56:59stem cell therapy,
57:00it's personal cell therapy.
57:02We can literally save millions of lives
57:04and billions of dollars right now
57:06from our healthcare budget,
57:07which everybody says
57:08was the most important problem
57:10going on in America right now.
57:12I think one of the things
57:12that we're going to find over time
57:14is that we really are
57:16onto something new and innovative
57:17that's going to change people's lives.
57:19And I cannot wait
57:21until cutting and drugging
57:24is no longer the first option.
57:27Cellular medicine is the future.
57:29Stem cells are not drugs.
57:32They are a form of intelligence
57:34that can be put into the human body
57:36to bring about healing and regeneration.
57:39It is the most miraculous discovery
57:42of my lifetime
57:43and I'm sure for everybody else's lifetime.
57:46It's almost like magic.
57:47And that's why I look
57:49at the adipose tissue collect
57:50and go, this is liquid magic.
57:52I'm a surgeon, not a magician.
57:54But you know what?
57:54This is about as close as you get
57:56to the real trick.
57:57It's a real trick.
58:27You can do it.
58:28You can do it.
58:33It's a real trick.
