Betalins, B-12 & Stem Cells?

I just finished reading an interesting article by Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita. In this informative report, Minshew had just returned from an anti-aging conference that focused on natural and pharmaceutical ways to slow the aging process and extend the vitality/longevity of humans. There were 20 speakers from around the world. All 20 of these physicians and professors eventually discussed stem cells as a way to slow aging and speed healing.

Now I don't know about you, but when I think of "stem cells" I immediately think of stem cell research and the highly controversial experimentation being conducted on these tissues. Of course not knowing or understanding the full definition of stem cells, that yes there are "embryonic" stem cells which are cells that differentiate becoming different tissue that become the heart, brain and other organs in a forming human. But did you know that once a human is formed, that the body continues to make stem cells? It's true! In fact, we make stem cells everyday as part of our healing process. The difference between these stem cells and "embryonic stem cells" is stem cells the body makes afterwards replace other cells.

Our bodies along with our cells eventually die, thus when a cell dies, the stem cells made in your bone marrow and other parts of our bodies are released back through a chemical trail to the dead cell, basically transforming to the type of cell it is to replace. For me it explains a lot about the aging process because it is defined as cell death and cell replacement. Further demonstrating why some people age prematurely, because stem cells cannot keep up daily with the demand of dead cells. Too many dead cells, not enough stem cells to keep up. On the flip side, if stem cells are not under such extreme demands on a daily basis, and an adequate amount can be produced daily you age slower. A healthy human being is less likely to experience chronic diseases associated with premature aging. Obviously, having a whole lot of stem cells is a very good thing indeed!

Stem cells as part of the body also requires proper nutrition to function adequately on a daily basis. If the body does not receive the required nutrients for making cells and those stem cells you can become deficient. So when the call comes for cell replacement from dying cells your bone marrow will not fill the order to meet the demand, and we all know what happens then...premature aging. Or cells will be made, but lack the critical nutrients that make it a healthy cell, leaving it wide open for inflammation and disease.

To keep our body making all those much needed stem cells, first and foremost you need a good foundation of proper nutrition, but you can take it one step further with specific nutrients that really stimulate the production line of stem cells. But what kind of special nutrients? Well, back to the article, and the anti-aging conference Brazos Menshew spoke of where six stem cells powerhouse nutrients were mentioned. Of the those duly noted, two stood out, one of which has an unusually large amount of the much needed stem cell nutrient, and believe it or not, it's found in the prickly pear cactus! It's Betalains! Betalins taken with vitamin B-12 may help the production.

So keep the hands of time at a slower speed, help your body burn the midnight oil on the stem cell production line by feeding it just what it needs, Betalins and B-12. The best way to get these two super nutrients is by taking superior products! So grab a bottle of Sonoran Bloom Nopalea and drink in a wealth of Betalins, then place sublingual B-12's tasty pink pill under your tongue! Now your cooking!
