For future parents

Nowadays no one can pretend to be immortal, although the scientists have already created a unique possibility for people to feel and to experience again happy days of youth, health and success. Many world-wide known people have used a new method of treatment, being not available for others, called cellular therapy (also called cell therapy).

Cellular or regenerative therapy allowed obtaining qualitatively new clinical results in the different medical areas: gerontology, oncology, gynecology, hematology, immunology, endocrinology, cardiology, obstetrics, psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, etc.

Method of cellular therapy gives positive results in treatment of the diseases of different etiology even when the diagnosis sounds as verdict and the disease is considered incurable.

Stem cells are the basis of cellular therapy.

Stem cells are the basis of organism; they give rise to all 240 types of specialized cells and tissues of organism. They are found in umbilical cord blood, in placenta complex, in bone marrow of adult people and in other tissues in minor amounts. Their main peculiarity is the ability for self-maintenance. That means that stem cells are theoretically immortal.

But in reality as a result of infections, traumas, effects of harmful environment factors, and emotional stresses stem cells lose their ability for regeneration and exactly from this event the processes of aging or development of long-term diseases start that, in its turn, cease the division of stem cells. If at birth their content is 1 stem cell for 10 thousand cells, then in 50 years – there is 1 stem cell for half a million cells and in 70 years – one stem cell for a million hemopoietic cells.

Storage of stem cells isolated from umbilical cord blood at child’s birth in frozen state and application of preparations developed on its base is the most perspective way of getting proper medicine that can be used in treatment of a number of diseases.

You have a unique opportunity to reliably protect your child’s health (and health of your family members) for years if you think about future in due time and save such precious and irreplaceable medication – your “own umbilical cord blood”. Cryobank specialists will isolate stem cells from this umbilical cord blood and will save them as biologically active preparation. Stem cells can be stored in frozen state for long years – this is your unique familial “health reserve”, that will be transferred to you upon your first request.

The procedure of collection and storage of umbilical cord blood is very popular in maternity hospitals of such developed countries as the USA, France, Britain, and Poland. The method justified itself completely and allowed to save life and health of many people. Unfortunately, the possibility to obtain such precious preparation is given to a person once in a lifetime – at birth. Perhaps no one from us, writing and reading this article could use your own stem cells, but you may and you must save them for your child.

Stem cells are used in treatment of more than 70 diseases, including oncological diseases of different localization, leucosis, immunodeficiency, stroke, diabetes, muscular dystrophy, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases and also in treatment of different chronic and autoimmune diseases and others.

It is worth mentioning that in Swiss clinics sheep cells have been used for rejuvenation for almost 100 years. In some countries national programs in collection and storage of umbilical cord blood are introduced, due to them thousands lives were saved.

In Ukraine extensive experience in successful application of human stem cells has been accumulated during last decade.
