Well, thank you so much. I just want to introduce my sweet, beautiful wife. Stand up knowing me. This is my compatriot of the last 30 years. If it wasn't for her, I would not be able to be up here talking to you today.
So I owe her everything. Next, I'd like to honor Tim Bolen, who is my bulldog.
Tim, stand up. Stand up. Down is the man who protects me from the establishment, who is out to put us out of business all the time. And so it's good to have friends in high places if you have this kind of a business, because what I practice is leading edge, not cutting edge, leading edge medicine. I hate that cutting edge stuff. It makes me.
So the Fed can figure this out here.
What are stem cells? Here's a little group of stem cells. And basically, they're the first cells of your body from which all other cells grow. Simple definition. Of like the starting matrix. The starting cell. The most available stem cells that we have are located in the bone marrow. We have stem cells throughout our body. They're in our brain. They're in our heart. They're in kidneys, liver and all these different organs. But in reality, the ones that count the most are the ones in your bone marrow.
And here we have a little diagram of the bone marrow and you see the bone. And this is a femur from which I can put a needle into and draw that bone marrow out and give it to you. So it's your own bone marrow stem cells that can be used to treat you for a variety of different conditions.
And we have then I just blew that. I touched everything OK here. Figure this all out.
OK, so from the bone marrow here, we have stem cells that can go out and become skeletal muscle cells. They can come out and become skin cells. They can become neurons and glial cells. Glial cells are the supporting cells in the brain. The ones that are affected by autism patients have a disorder of glial metabolism. They can become heart muscle. They can become fat cells. They can become blood vessels. And so these bone marrow stem cells have got great potential in terms of taking care of all of these tissues once they are injured. Now, in addition, more importantly, on a daily basis in terms of anti aging, is the health of your blood vessels and your blood vessels age as you age. And.
These stem cells from your bone marrow.
Circulate throughout your bloodstream and repair your blood vessels and organs
