PRP , Stem Cells and the future
 
I came across this doing my usual trawl across cyberspace wondered about the ramifications of using something like this on people with neuropathy i.e. if it can be used to regenerate some of things it claims below , then why can it regenerate or help us ?

So I did a wee scout further ( because its something i dont see managed much on any forums ) and noticed theres actually some evidence that it could help.

PRP is being used in athletes with injuries. I think Tiger Woods had it done for his knee.

I've seen a little that PRP is not what they thought it would be.
But I don't have first hand knowledge about it.

Yes, from what I see though there are quite a few variations i.e. this one has some sort of matrix that sounds a little like the extracellular matristem matrix acell used for that miracle " pixie powder " .

I know the personal genome project is currently looking for folk to map their the DNA and build a database ( 100 volunteers ) so why not some of us i.e. to represent our disease ?
