Stem Cell Doctor Reacts to Bryan Johnson's Crazy Procedure

[@harsoo]

Dr. Kong, I've watched numerous videos of clinicians, researchers, experts, and influencers on the topic of health, nutrition, exercise, and sleep. In the area of stem cells, you are a compassionate and extremely knowledgeable clinician. Your superpower is that you are a gifted educator who explains complex topics in an easily understood manner without over hyping or under stating its benefits, risks, and efficacy. Thank you for what you do, and keep up your good work.

[@Kathrine-j3j]

Good to note that Cellcolabs’ MSCs are based on 25 years of research from Karolinska Institute led by one of the institute’s most cited professors. This means that eg: The data about the cells having two hours shelf life after thawing has been meticulously retrieved and is approved by EMA. (Futhermore, the cells are reconstituted which entails more than just thawing, which is why it’s done in another building.) The cells are checked for surface markers, including HLA expression. They are also checked for genetic modifications. The treatments are conducted in clinical trials, which gives another world of quality assurance compared to treatments that have not been reviewed by a regulatory body. There are several reasons Cellcolabs provides cells to clinical trials in the Bahamas in addition to clinical trials in Europe, one of them being that it is legal in the Bahamas to pay for clinical trial participation, enabling long term preventative trials that pharma are very hesitant to sponsor, and driving down the prices when the volume increases. I think we should all help each other to further the field even though I understand that critique comes naturally as there are many unserious practices out there that we should be very sceptical towards.

[@JoyKongMD]

I appreciate your comment and the info you provided. I would like to know what kind of processing the cells received during the thawing process. I understand the clinical study aspect. However, just because something is under clinical study, it doesn't mean the quality is more assured. Many people can set up a clinical study without having to prove the quality of the cells, and I have seen this happen a lot. What is the regulatory body that approved this clinical study and what kind of quality control do they require? And yes, we should all help each other, to do the right things and do the best we can to advance the field of stem cell therapy to help more people heal. ❤️

Thanks, doctor. Very interesting and useful information in the video. I've always done a lot of sports and weights and never had any problems with my joints or anything else. Recently I was diagnosed with MS and then symptoms started getting worse and I started getting osteoarthritis which MS seems to trigger from what I've researched. I'm using glucosamine now and have completely changed my diet and lifestyle to hopefully cure myself. I hope Bryan doesn't have some other underlying issue or that he hurts himself with his experiments because when you have some chronic illness or money, people will try to sell you anything without any regard for your health or anything else so just a word of caution to all.

Thank you for your input and I'm so glad you found my video helpful. I am sorry to hear about your MS diagnosis... Addressing your diet and implementing other health-enhancing protocols will do you a lot of good!

2:31 I've been following primarily Bryan Johnsons BluePrint Protocols as well as a Carnivore based diet in hopes of curing my COPD that I've been diagnosed with along with another lung disease and can't wait to implement a stem cell program into my yearly routine as well. What I can't wait to see and I'm sure Bryan will as well, is when the Science community stops Click Baiting everyone and making (makes no sense) comments like why the Doctor here says she doesn't have the same "aches and pains" as Bryan detailing that Bryan is like what 8-9 years younger than her, BUT then she later in the video explains that she has been taking Stem Cell Injections, and even straight into her blood stream since she was 46, now she says she's 53?? I mean it's an overall good view and video Placing Bryan Johnson at the forefront of the conversation really, which is great! And I understand enough about the KZbin CRAZY Algorithm DEMANDING for Click Bait material and click bait titles. It'll just be nice when everyone comes to understand that first, the man's monthly program called Blueprint does NOT cost us 2 million a year, his TEAM and RESEARCH costs that, the Blueprint costs around $1,500 a month, including groceries, and he's trying to even get that lower. And 2nd, when everyone comes to understand that he's not a liar, he's not doing this as a money-based idea, even though he and his team WILL make some money, as they should, helping to SAVE LITERALLY human lives. LOL I mean, after 2 years of hearing everyone nonsense, and him giving ALL of his research out, and making it an Open Source, you know, the Click baiting, the snarky remarks that make no sense. I mean of course this Doctor's aches and pains aren't as bad as Bryan's, she's been on HIS Stem Cell Therapy, basically, even a better one it sounds like, for 8 more years than he has been on them. lmao I sincerely hope that Dr Kong and Bryan Johnson can help bring the cost of stem cell injections down, AND that she can bring more awareness to the huge benefits of Stem Cell Injections, and I hope that she is in great health, sincerely. I mean her idea of 30 year olds taking part in yearly injections, THAT'S BRILLIANT! I hope everyone has an awesome week. - Bill Cragg #BryanJohnson #Blueprintbryanjohnson #DrJoyKong #StemCells

[@JoyKongMD]

Hi Bill, I appreciate your taking the time to comment and share your thoughts. I definitely understand your defense of Bryan. However, to make it very clear, I merely wanted to provide my perspectives on the stem cell treatment he underwent, so people can have a more accurate understanding of stem cell therapy if they are interested in pursuing it for themselves. There's a lot of misinformation out there and I feel responsible to get the correct information out. Nowhere in my video did I discredit Bryan Johnson or his efforts to bring certain protocols forward to improve his own health or his fellow human beings'. In all fairness, he did emphasize that he spent $2 million on his health yearly, so it's a legitimate question why he still had aches and pains, when great results can be achieved at a fraction of what he spent... it warrants the question of whether his approach need revision or improvement... Again, thank you for watching the video. And good luck to your health. I have seen stem cell therapy doing amazing things for COPD.

The amount depends on a person's body weight, age and health issues, but generally between 20-50 million cells at our clinic. Because these are native (unmanipulated and unexpanded) cells, you can achieve the same results with less cells.

Hi Dr. Kong, Thank you for making this video that answer several of my questions on what Bryan is doing. What recommendation can you provide for most effective parkinson treatment? Is it just MSC treatment or combo with PRP, exosome, ozone therapy etc etc? Will the injection be somewhere near the brain to get the most effective outcome? Two other general questions: 1. Doesn't the stem cell from umbilical cord not have "pure" Mesenchymal properties & have to be processed like at those clinics abroad that culture them through a couple of passages to achieve the best "pure MSC stage"? 2. How much does cryo-freezing & then thawing out "lose" in pure-MSC %? Please shine some lights here & thank you so much in advance!

[@JoyKongMD]

Thank you for your questions. For brain conditions, we have various modalities in addition to stem cells, such as using mannitol to open up the blood brain barrier, and we also add intranasal exosomes which can get into the brain easily. We also incorporate, ozone therapy, various peptides, and powerful laser light therapy. Maybe this video of mine will explain our approach in a little bit more detail: Best Place to Get Stem Cell Therapy and Treatment Approaches kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKGsdH99rruAnLssi=2nkpMgyJc-iO09lf

[@JoyKongMD]

And I would like to answer your two questions. 1. Extracted cells from the umbilical cord can include a whole range of cells, and cells from the umbilical cord blood is very different from the cells from the umbilical cord tissue. Even cells from the umbilical cord tissue will include cell types other than MSC's. What I use in the clinic is a combination of the beneficial cells in both the cord blood and the cord tissue. Expanding the cells in cultures may not be a good thing for the recipient, and please watch the video I just shared in the previous reply to you. 2. Different stem cell companies will have products with different viability of cells. The freezing and thawing process can be stressful for the cells. However, if done in a highly skilled facility, the viability can be over 95% after thawing, which means that over 95% of cells will still be alive after being thawed. Choosing your source wisely is important.

[@austinbambooinc2507]

2:10, placental stem cells would have been a better choice. In Oriental medicine there are a number of plant, animal, and mineral substances categorized as "reconnecting sinew and bone". Basically, they cause damaged tissue to revert to stem/progenitor cells, that propagate across the injury site before re-differentiating. 26:00, warm and shivering is reacting to an invasion. It may be a bad reaction, or it may be some local pathogen or allergen. 28:00, Can't bend his knees is likely due to swelling of the local tissue before changing it, maybe propagating the new stem cells in the area. With an herbal salve for injuries, I usually apply it during the daytime and leave it open at night to allow differentiation an regular healing.

FYI - Bryan Johnson was born August 22, 1977. So, nearly 48 at the making of this video. He doesn't look too bad for his age, but does have a sort of rubbery appearance. As to why he has taken this extreme path? It's likely that his body is genetically weaker. As a side note, Mel Gibson had stem cell therapy too, and he has reported feeling great afterwards especially with 'wear and tear' joint issues. And, his father had stem cell therapy at age 92, and his organs and body were actively failing. He wound up living to age 101. So, stem cell therapy likely works for most people, and will possibly the future of many medical interventions for healing therapies. Imagine healing your body joints, as opposed to joint replacements. Or healing inner ear vestibular problems like Dana White's health issues (Meniere's Disease).

Very interesting presentation, thank you! I know that FDA prohibits replication of stem cells in US, so you are just following their recommendation, but have you seen any real studies (preferably not ordered/financed by Big Pharma) that replication of stem cells is in any way makes them less useful? I used to believe that FDA (and other 3 letter agencies) have our well-being in mind, but that belief has been decimated in the last 4 years.... The problem with this recommendation (or is it an edict?) is that it makes stem cell treatment prohibitively expensive in US. The same procedure that I can do in Mexico (or Columbia) for under 3K, would cost me way north of 30K in US. It may be OK for wealthy folks, but it is out of reach for most Americans.

Dr. Kong, I love your videos, they're really clear and informative. I've one question: Is there a risk to deplet prematurely the local stem cells of a specific tissue, like a liver, as exemple, because we are activating them several times with injection of stem cells throw the years?

[@JoyKongMD]

I am so glad you are enjoying my videos. When we inject Stem Cells from a younger source (meaning not from our own body), we are definitely not depleting it, and actually adding to the supply. Elements in these young stem cells also can help with the rejuvenation of our own cells, through their ability to reduce senescence and even repair the DNA... however, when you use your own Stem Cell source, you are definitely depleting your own supply...

Where did the bone marrow come from? I noticed that they scrambled the words when he got ready to say where he got the stem cells from... I did hear a small portion of what was said after the scrambling... He said it came from something young...

[@JoyKongMD]

They came from a younger donor who gave his bone marrow so a lab can produce bone marrow-derived stem cells. The bone marrow cells, even though can be very helpful, have already declined and are not as potent as umbilical cord derived stem cells, and also has the potential to cause rejection because they can have more surface markers that mark them as a different individual if indeed this came from someone else...

Would you like to comment on my son's sitution from 15-20 years ago? As a youngster he had morbus slattus in both knees and underwent a procedure to extract stem-cells from his marrow and transplant them to his knees (without cultivating them). This took place in Germany and was not particularly successful. Liked your video. Thank you.

[@JoyKongMD]

Really glad you like my videos. Are you referring to Osgood-Schlatter disease? If so, from the mechanisms of the disease and the how stems cells work, I do believe that stem cell therapy could be helpful. However, the type of cells (age, how it's obtained and process, where it is injected, any other comorbid issues, can all affect the results). I hope this knee issue has resolved for your son now?

[@howardcohen6817]

@@JoyKongMD Well, thanks for writing back, Dr. Kong. The condition to which I'm referring (as you corrected - morbus Osgood-Schlatter) was explained to me (in German) as the ridges developed in the knee-cap of an adolescent from the panatella-tendon use tightening over them which causes great pain in the skin of the bone. My son grew out of the condition and became a professional basketballer. The procedure was touted as a new procedure in Haltern, NRW, Germany in 2009. I did ask the doctor if there was a way of cultivating these stem-cells outside of the body to make them more effective, but I'm not sure he understood me (or wanted to).

[@JoyKongMD]

@@howardcohen6817 Glad your son grew out of it. Culturing the cells don't necessarily make them better, actually oftentimes it can promote senescence and lead to reduced efficacy and increased side effects.

We do remote consultation at our clinic and we have a pediatrician that takes care of our autistic patients, and of course it's always under my supervision. The US does NOT prohibit stem cell therapy for autism or any other condition, it's just in a gray zone and no clear regulation is available yet. However, the way we do it at our clinic we use unexpanded cells which means the cells have not gone through any manipulation, making them a tissue transplant product, and not a drug.

Hip and knee replacement sometimes are not necessary. Please watch this video where I discussed a study illustrating that point: Stem Cell Therapy for Osteoarthritis kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpyvXo1sqL-Ybsk Your question is the question of why we degenerate and get sick in the first place... this is why I was so interested in anti-aging medicine, which is the branch of medicine that looks at why we decline with age in the first place... osteoarthritis is simply an inflammatory condition, and as we age, we are not repairing as effectively. The key is to address the root cause why we're having all this inflammation and reduced regenerative potential.
