Regenerative Medicine- A Fundamentally Different Approach to Individual’s Health

Traditional Medicine
Treats disease that, once developed, subsequently leads to dependence of the medical care system
Unhealthy but functional individuals with the high demand of medical care dominate the society today.
For the last decade, the health delivery system has been depleted of preventive measure and the proactive approach to individual health is more or less inexistent, leading to increased dependency on government health regulations.
As a comparison, the post-rehab relapse of the heroin addict is 97%, the current health care relapse is 100% - dependency worse than heroin addiction.
 Integrated Regenerative Medicine
This is a fundamentally different approach to individual’s health.
  • Integrated- healthy lifestyle and prevention of diseases.
  • Regenerative-Use of the body own cells and properties to restore or establish normal function. True understanding of the aging process; slows down the biological aging process and facilitates healthy functional life with increase endurance, mental capacity, libido and sleep. Today’s 70-year old is yesteryear’s 30-something.
  • The goal is to cure the health care dependency and join the path of personal freedom
 Components:
  • Healthy lifestyle
  • Normal physiologic weight
  • Nutritional knowledge
  • Smart exercise program
  • Bio-identical hormone replacement
  • Non-surgical and surgical reduction of exercise resistant fat deposit
  • Reduction of intra-abdominal fat
  • Growth factor therapies
  • Fat transfer (fat is the mantra today)
  • Stem cells and /or exosomes enriched fat transfer
  • Stem cell therapies
  • Exosomes
  • Stem cells/exosome therapies
  • Molecular breakdown therapies (nearest future)
 Non-Surgical and Surgical reduction of Exercise Resistant Fat Deposits
After a certain age, the subcutaneous fat deposits of the abdomen and flanks no longer respond to healthy lifestyle and the most advanced exercise routines.
The reasons are decreased active hormonal levels and decrease the sensitivity of the cell receptors to the circulating active hormone metabolites. This is also associated with the conversion of beneficial hormones in the fat tissue of the abdomen and flanks to hormone exercising deleterious functions.
The amount of fat around the abdomen and flanks is a stronger prognostic factor for numerous diseases than genetic predisposition. The risk for the conditions listed below is directly associated with the amount of fat around the abdomen and flanks:
  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • High Blood Pressure
  • Metabolic Syndrome
  • Heart disease
  • Heart attack
  • Stroke
  • Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (excess of fat in the liver of people without alcohol consumption)
  • Cancer such as  breast, colon, kidney, endometrial (related to the lining of the uterus), ovarian
  • Decreased libido and erectile dysfunction
  • Depression
  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Dementia
In summary, whether an individual will enjoy healthy and functional life after the age of fifty or assume the shape of a pretzel in a nursing home bed, is directly correlated to the truncal obesity (the amount of fat around the abdomen and flanks).
