UNLOCKING THE POWER OF STEM CELLS AS A PRECISION REGENERATIVE

As patients find themselves having to fight for approval of medical benefits, there is one visionary precision physician who leads the charge in providing cutting edge conservative options for his patients. Having been educated in biochemistry and refusing to limit treatment options to only outdated traditional treatments, Jeffrey Gross, M.D. practices the future of medicine now.

One of the most conservative neuro-spine surgeons in the country, whose medical research publications having been cited nearly 1000 times, Dr. Gross’s experience in stem cell and regenerative medicine is getting the attention of discerning clients, athletes, longevity seekers, biohackers, and anyone seeking non-surgical alternatives to joint and disc degeneration.

Our bodies have the cellular machinery to heal and regenerate. This process loses steam as we age and is represented by a change in the activities in our cells, related to which of our genes are switched on and off. A collection of age-related cellular changes contribute to a degeneration of tissues through a process of chronic inflammation. This is precisely why healthy factors in diet, exercise, and other lifestyle choices foster healthy longevity, or what is termed “health-span.”

Our cells can be coaxed or reminded to function in a more youthful state, which therefore works against aging and degeneration. This type of strategy is called regeneration. This is where the regenerative field of medicine gets its name.

Regenerative and anti-aging medicine is delivered in multiple forms. The first group of interventions are called “epigenetic” modifications. These strategic interventions involve one’s diet (components and timing), specific exercise, necessary supplements, support of the gut microbiome, avoidance of environmental toxins, and mild but beneficial stresses called “hormesis” (for example, hot sauna sessions).

More targeted interventions involve the delivery of biologic products to stimulate our cells to behave in a more youthful, regenerative sense. The lowest level of regenerative medicine is delivered through “PRP” or platelet rich plasma, in which multiple vials of blood are drawn, and spun down to separate out the blood plasma, which contains concentrated “growth factors.” These factors are delivered mainly into areas of orthopedic injury, and typically require multiple interventions.

The next level of regenerative medicine involves the use of stem cells. Two main sources of stem cells are from our own bodies, or from other “donors.” If we suffer from chronic inflammation, disease, and/or age-related cellular degeneration, using our own stem cells is of limited value. Alternatively, stem cells from ethical and screened perinatal sources (amniotic fluid, placenta, and/or umbilical cord) provide a more powerfully youthful response. An even more concentrated method of activating our own cells (including our aging stem cells) can be delivered through “exosomes.” Also from perinatal sources, there are smaller elements that can even cross the bloodbrain barrier to stimulate brain and other nervous system tissues to follow a regenerative, healing, and anti-aging pathway.

For those seeking a more youthful biology and longevity, or those seeking alternatives to help address diseases of aging and of inflammation, a consultation to understand your alternative options is appropriate. Trying to avoid cortisone injections or joint replacement? Wishing to prevent further degeneration of a joint? Looking to help address an auto-immune or other inflammatory process? Looking to help heal or regenerate? A second opinion to discuss your cutting edge customized and precise options is worth your time. MV
