A short conversational clip from The Life Stylist Podcast featuring Luke Storey and Joy Kong, MD discussing stem cell treatments. They compare three common stem cell sources—bone marrow, adipose (fat), and birth-tissue (allogeneic)—and Dr. Kong asserts that birth-tissue–derived stem cells are superior, referencing scientific consensus.
Had had stem cell treatment a few years back out with Dr. Harry Adelson and Dr. Amy Killen in Park City. Like when I went with you the other day, it was just like getting a Myers cocktail, like an iv. It was just totally chill. You're going to drip in your arm and you just sit there and hang out. But this was, you know, under anesthesia and they did adipose derived stem cells and bone marrow derived stem cells.
So those are the three most common types. Obtaining stem cells from your bone marrow, your fat or using someone else's, which most likely is from the issue. So when I first got into, you know, got super excited about stem cells, I definitely looked into all of them and because I was determined to give people the best and there was no question in my mind that the birth tissue source is superior. I mean, that's not my conclusion. It's the conclusion of many, many, many scientists from all around the world.
