“Poor sleep also induced epigenetic changes in stem cells that produce immune cells, reducing their progeny's diversity and tipping the balance of immune cell production toward an inflammatory profile. Sleep has profound effects on human health.”

“Older people appear to have impaired mitochondria and energy production highlighting the importance of maintaining mitochondrial health in old age. Skin cells from young and old people were reprogrammed into stem cells that form neurons.”

“This research was done by Prof. Valter Longo at USC. I recently interviewed Valter and he talked in great detail about prolonged fasting and how it affects the clearance of damaged cells through autophagy, boosts stem cell production to replace the damaged cells and more.”

“Olfactory cells in the nose that are responsible for a sense of smell require a constant supply of new stem cells from the olfactory bulb, a region in the forebrain. NOTE: Many other factors can lead to a poor sense of smell so other biomarkers need to be looked at in addition to sense of smell.”

“FTA: > What if repairing large segments of damaged muscle tissue was as simple as mobilizing the body’s stem cells to the site of the injury? New research in mice and rats suggests that “in body” regeneration of muscle tissue might be possible by harnessing the body’s natural healing powers.”
