Joy Kong, MD explains why umbilical cord stem cells sit between embryonic and neonatal cells, making them more powerful than baby stem cells. They lack the toxins that accumulate in adults and are cleaner than the mother's blood, though trace contaminants can still be present.
What's interesting when we use birth tissue derived stem cells is that they are actually in between embryonic stem cells, which are day five to seven old embryo. You know, the cells came from there. And the baby stem cells. The baby stem cells are powerful. Right. But these stem cells that's trapped in the birth tissue, in the placenta and glucochord, they are in between. So they're even more powerful than the baby stem cells. And they don't have the kind of environmental toxins that are accumulated in an adult person. Yet people say, yes, we found toxins in umbilical cord blood. Yes, we live in a toxic world. That happens. But comparing to the mother's toxic load, there's no comparison. There's absolutely no comparison.
