A single-speaker YouTube presentation discussing stem cells as an adjunctive (not replacement) therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS). The speaker asserts MS is among the most expensive diseases due to costly, only partly effective drugs; stem cells have immunomodulatory effects and may induce remissions of roughly nine months to a year in autoimmune diseases including MS, based on lab and clinical studies.

Chapters

If you look at multiple sclerosis, it is actually one of the most expensive diseases they have, second behind heart failure. And this is because the drugs are very expensive and they just don't work really well. So people have sought out alternatives to conventional therapy. Now, these are not to replace conventional therapy. The things I'm talking about are adjuvant of, or their addition to conventional therapy is still conventional therapy is needed. If we look at the role of stem cells in ms, the stem cells for your body appear to be immunomodulatory, meaning they modulate. The immune response in many cases can put people in some form of remission for about nine months to perhaps a year for pretty much any autoimmune disease. This has been shown in the laboratory and clinical studies, but for ms, it's about nine months to a year.
