Do you have that bedroom blues and struggling to rise to the occasion. Well, do you know that your body holds a natural healing? These little tiny warriors call platelets, your own stem cell that can be harnessed to get back your game again. Stay tuned fellas, because I'm gonna dive into a natural solution from your own body so that way you can restore function again to get you rock hard confidence. So let's dive into this episode because I'm excited to share this. Actually not new. It's been around as long as we've been alive, but we didn't really know what it can do because this existed in your body for a long time, but it was used in the 70s to help heal, heal wounds. And then around late 90s is when doctors start realizing that you can harness your own blood, the component in your blood called platelets, to accelerate your healing. So what does that mean? Well, let me show you a slide here. So your blood is composed of plasma, which is the yellowish liquid that is in your blood. And also platelets, which are the stem cells that I'm talking about and the red blood cell. So I know you're like, well, my blood is red. What is the yellowish stuff got to do with it? Well, the red part of your blood only is the red blood cell which comprises only 45% and the other 55% comprises of plasma. And, and plasma is a yellowish liquid that has all your nutrients, all the stuff that your body needs to continue to live. And then you also have the platelets, which is really about 1% of your whole blood. And it has the platelets which are involved with healing and clotting. And then also the white blood cell which of course help with fighting infection. Right. So that is in your blood. You already have stem cell, your healing factors in your blood. Do you know that? Well, let me know what you think because I would love to hear your perspective on this. Because now doctors now can harness the platelets from your blood to be delivered to an area that needs healing. Now platelets is already in your blood. But platelets, platelet rich plasma is when Dr. Get about a glass of wine, about 60 cc's which is about 3 ounces. Don't worry, you have a lot of blood in your body. You have 5 liters or 5,000 milliliters of blood. And just taking 60 milliliter is a very small percentage of volume. You wouldn't even notice it because when you go donate blood, you donate about 250 milliliter or 500 milliliter, which is a lot More so it's totally safe. These stem cells that you have in your body are called platelets. They help heal tissue, they help bring in blood flow to the area, and it also help with clotting as well. But how is this related to erectile dysfunction? Because what it means is that what is ed? ED is decreased blood flow. Right? When you have decreased blood flow, that means that the blood vessels in your penis is not getting enough blood to help with causing a firm erection. Well, now you can use the platelets in your blood to now to be delivered to the penis through an injection. But don't worry, it doesn't hurt. It's no different than probably Trimix, that will actually restore the blood flow to the penis again. So let's go on the next slide. So your blood, like I said, composes of the plasma and then the platelets, as you can see on this slide. So how do doctors harness the stem cells which help restore blood flow again? Well, we get it from your blood. So the same way that you will go to the lab and get blood work to measure your cholesterol, your blood sugar, and how your kidney is, how your liver is functioning, the amount is taken from your veins and then it's put into a centrifuge that you can see in the centrifuge spins the blood. When it comes out, you have the yellowish on the top and then the red blood cells on the bottom. The yellowish part, the plasma, the platelets, is in the middle layer between the yellow and the red. And then that is then placed into your penis. And what it does is that it actually bring in more blood flow to the tissue and make the tissue more healthy or the muscle more healthy. But what you care about is more healing of the tissue. And I've been using this since 2005 to treat ED since 2014. So these STEM cell help restore in blood flow again. And therefore that's how it helps with ed. Now, how good is that? You have your own stem cell in your body to help you restore blood flow. But you're asking why it goes to the penis to help with ed. It's because when an area doesn't have enough blood flow, then the blood can't get to that area. And so that's kind of a catch 22. It's like you need more blood flow, but then it doesn't have enough blood flow. The blood or the platelets can't get to you that area. What the doctors do is to get the platelets from your veins and then put it into the area to restore blood flow again, either the penis, the hair. You can do it for joints research and study a lot in joints and for pain that's in the knee, the shoulders, it's very well known in wound healing, but now you can use the same thing to restore blood flow in the penis for erection. So this is a new technology that had been around for at least a decade now and we now have more and more research to indicate that it works really well. However, the research sometime can support it and sometime it may not support it. So I will list some of the research on my website@tronrehab.com but we have seen it in thousands of patients that we have treated over the years in restoring function again. And so having said that, know that there is an alternative to restoring ed, that there are stem cells in your body that does a repair for you. Now imagine if you pair that with diet, exercise, sleep and stress reduction that I talked about in my last video, then your duration for your erection will be accelerated.
