Talk of the Town / Re: PNOY DUDA SA SHOOTOUT!
January 10, 2013, 03:21:46 PM
comes a time nga mapugos ta for lack of any choice, kay mahimo man nilang i-disapprove ang sakyanan.  usa ka tuig baya nga wa kadagan among sakyanan tungod kay nagpagahi ko sa pasakalye sa LTO nga makalisang ang pangayo (nga kintahay dili taga-LTO kay fixer man). 

pait ug parat ning kalibotana.  tumoong pahak sa daang matuwid... nanggungis na ning mga tawhana sa ilang binuhatan.  wa nay kahadlokan.

mosumbong ko, wa koy proof.  wa pa gyod koy pusil.  maangin tag ahat sa checkpoint...

All I can say is that at the beginning of this year I decided to take the product as a nutritional supplement. I am now a happily functioning person again and out and about. Last year I was very depressed and it was physically my worst year. Most of the doctors wasted my time and money. Drugs were their only answer and that did not work! My mother suffered a heart attack after taking Vioxx. Two people died in my family recently of misdiagnosis and wrong medication. My friend lost her eye sight after taking 12 days of a prescribed drug. So, should I continue the allopathic way?

I have done my own research and I have read all that I can and continue to do so, looking for something out there than can help. To me, this product did the trick, I can physically function again, and my lab results have shown a drastic change. The quality of my life is so much better! You call him a quack, but I call him a person who has made a difference in my life!

lifeenhancingtec says...

Apparently you are not aware that there is a peer reviewed study published in the Cardiovascular Revascularization Medical Journal, Sept Issue.

Based on your comments you are saying this peer review is worthless?

And are you making a statement that this is a drug or in that category? It is not.

I hold an MS Degree also and I am about to do my dissertation to get my PHD. I had to stop working a JOB and my dissertation papers because my body had run down and I was unable to do much of anything. I was joining the drugged society. Having tried the product upon high recommendations of an MD who did research on this product I had great results and doing much, much better in just a few months. StemEnhance help my body do what it needed to do unlike the poor results caused by medications. So, believe what you want without having tried the product that is your choice. As for myself, I thank Christian Drapeau for giving me the chance to continue having a better quality of life. And as far as the MLM goes, you have just know idea.... because it isn't what you make it to be. Stick to what you know more about live the business world alone. Either we are all stupid and you are just so smart and above us all.
#25911
3)Is there any evidence that IF stem cell mobilization offers a health benefit, the increase in circulating CD34+ claimed by StemEnhance is biologically relevant? 30% may seem like a lot, but what does that mean in absolute numbers? Is that 1000 cells? 100? Is that enough to make a difference?

4)What are potential long term or other potential outcomes of increased circulating stem cells? A recent paper discussed at Journal Club talks about bone marrow stem cells localizing to breast cancers and increase metastatic potential.

Don't just listen to me, though. Other StemEnhance criticism can be found at MLM watch and The Scientist.

On top of the dubious product claims, StemEnhance has another hallmark of potential scams: a multi-level marketing scheme. That's right, you too can distribute StemEnhance and become a block in the pyramid upon whose back others will profit. But don't just take StemEnhance to improve your OWN health, you can buy StemPets and StemEquine and have your animal friends reap the benefits as well. Me? I think I'll buy some for my duck. Quack, quack, quack. (Posted by Kamel)
#25912
some other opinions:

The product that this data is meant to support is StemEnhance, a miracle stem cell mobilizer that improves healing and maintains proper tissue and organ functioning in your body. A single, 30-serving (60 tablet) bottle costs $60 with a recommended dose of 2 capsules once or twice a day. But before shelling out up to $120 a month, consider the following:

1)Does StemEnhance actually mobilize stem cells as it claims? The only published data is poor at best, as discussed above.

2)Is there any scientific evidence that 'stem cell mobilization' offers any health benefit? Like most quackery, StemEnhance relies on anecdotal evidence and testamonials to support their claims.

Christian Drapeau (Born March 8, 1965 in Montreal, Canada) is an American author and self-styled "stem cell expert", the author of a book called The Stem Cell Theory of Renewal (Sutton Hart Press 2009). Drapeau is also the author of several other books ranging from Accelerated Learning to Amazon Herbs to Cracking the Stem Cell Code (Sutton Hart Press 2010). (wikipedia)

#25943
But I was most impressed by Dr. George Eufemio, a surgical oncologist.  The doctor takes StemEnhance and now also sells it because it has done him tremendous good.  Dr. Eufemio is 80 years old, plays tennis albeit doubles.  He is a doctor who has tried it and found it works remarkably well on him.  He jokes that when he plays tennis and wins, it is because of StemEnhance.  When he loses, it’s because he forgot to take it.

If you want to try it, ask your friends.  I’m sure there’s a person you know who sells it.  If not, you may call me, but only if you truly want to.

http://www.philstar.com/
#25944
But it can be expensive.  The retail price is P3,600 for every bottle of 90 capsules.  Ordinary people take three capsules a day.  I take them all in the morning.  If you are recovering from a stroke or from cancer, you may have to take as many as 16 capsules a day.  It will work slowly but surely on you as it worked on me.

It is also good for diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, I am told, a bit too late for my mother.  It is good for any ailment because it repairs all cells that need repair, including brain cells.  Also this is so much cheaper than the stem cell therapy I know the celebrities are taking.
#25945
That’s how I got converted to StemEnhance.  You don’t find it in drugstores.  You buy it from people who sell it.  It is not a miracle drug.  It repairs your body invisibly because it repairs inside, replacing cells that need replacement.  You don’t see those and you don’t feel anything.  But over time, you observe the effects.

I wear glasses all the time and my glasses have progressive lenses.   I used to go for a checkup once a year.  The grade would go higher each time.  These days, I make jewelry, always using my eyes.  The grade has not changed in three years.  To me that alone is remarkable!
#25946
I know the effect it had on me. As a stroke victim I did not want to take my neurologist’s prescriptions because I do not like chemical drugs.  Then I ran into a friend who looked very well.  I asked him if he was taking anything.  He said StemEnhance.  So I asked for a bottle. In less than 10 days, I noticed more energy.  I used to wake up and drag myself around.  Suddenly, I was waking up, bathing, and dressing very quickly and looking for things to do.  In four months my brain had returned.  I was thinking again, speaking again, being contrary again.  In four months, I was perfectly well.   To think that I had the stroke six years before then.
#25947
to continue...

StemEnhance is a capsule made from blue-green algae found in an Oregon lake. Drapeau did massive research on it and found that it had the property of supporting the manufacture and mobility of human stem cells.  Our stem cells are produced by the bone marrow in our own bodies.  Stem cells are our own healing system. They are produced, released into the blood stream and travel around our bodies looking for defective cells that need to be replaced.  Then they turn into those cells.  If there is something wrong with your liver, you will generate new liver cells and your liver will start working again.
#25948
why not?  this may be worth a try.   
#25949
Anyway, last week I went to my first StemEnhance meeting.  Christian Drapeau, the researcher whose efforts gave birth to the capsule, was in town and he was going to give a speech.  He does this quite regularly, but I’ve never had the time to go.   Christian Drapeau is a good-looking, well-spoken vegetarian.  Jenny, one of the office girls, referred to him as a George Clooney look-alike and I saw she was quite right.  But he is young and married to a beautiful young actress so, ladies, hands off.  He talked wonderfully well about the product and how it works.
#25950
I am not an active seller of StemEnhance. I buy about six bottles every quarter for my own use and the use of a few people who call now and then. I have been taking it for three years now. It makes me feel good. The other day, I saw one of my writing students.  She was my oldest student. She looked puzzled.  Then she said, “You look so young.  You look younger than you did when you were teaching me.  You should change the picture in your column.  There you look old.”  The last time I saw her was eight years ago.

I had lunch with a friend who I had not seen at close range in approximately a year.   I was wearing jeggings and a simple blouse.  She said I was slim.  I told her I don’t diet.  She said it was probably because of StemEnhance.  I agreed.

When our cells need repair, including brain cells


Illustration by REY RIVERA

I remember my cousin Noli calling me and telling me about a doctor she saw on TV talking about stem cell therapy.  “It might be good for your mother,” she said, “but it’s very expensive.”  When she told me how much, I told her I could not afford it.  Since then both my mother and Noli have passed away.  But that phone call stands out in my memory because it was the first time I heard about stem cell therapy, something I use now, and for much less money than that doctor cited then.

The reality is we have heard much more of Mark Hamill than seen over the years. Old Luke may have a face for radio, but he’s lent his voice to several video games and cartoons over the years. Anyone that’s watched “My Friends Tigger and Pooh” on Disney…just admit you watched it…heard him as the voice of Turtle.

Even I was surprised when I found out he voices Fire Lord Ozao in the “Avatar: The Last Airbender”cartoon. Just last week, my children and I finally watched the series, and not once did I even think about Hamill as Ozai. In fact, children today have heard more of Mark Hamill than any of my or subsequent generations ever have.

Hamill may not be able to swing a light saber like he used to, but I hear they make pills for that. Many may consider Hamill’s career to have gone downhill since his days as a Jedi, but for any actor to stay busy into his 60s is definitely an accomplishment. He may not have a list of blockbuster movies under he belt, but it’s obvious that he hasn’t let his one iconic character define him. Happy birthday, Luke Skywalker, may the Hoveround be with you.

here's an interesting article on mark hamill:

Happy Birthday Luke Skywalker

September 26, 2012
By Brock Cooper (doddleNEWS)


Mark Hamill was only 25 when he swung his first light saber, and some would say that it was the highlight of his career. The Jedi turned 61 this past Sunday, making that 183 in Hollywood years. It’s hard to believe the young man that took on the voice of James Earl Jones, and lived, carries around an AARP card.

It’s funny when people a generation or two behind mine (I was blessed to slide in at the tail-end of Gen X) consider Hamill’s greatest role as either the voice of Joker on Batman or possibly Cocknocker in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. He may have never gained the fame of Han or the infamy of Leia, but I don’t think Hamill has done too badly for himself.

While I’m a Star Wars fan, Hamill will forever be Col. Christopher Blair from the incredibly successful, and once cutting edge, Wing Commander series of video games. I still have them and occasionally bring them out on my original Playstation. He also made an impression in “The Guyver,” but it’s hard to outshine Jimmy Walker and his signature “Dynomite.” I hope you can sense the sarcasm there.
