Stem Cell Therapy for Heart Disease
About 610,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year accounting for 1 in every 4 deaths. It is the leading cause of death for both men and women. While lifestyle changes, medications and surgery can help, there is still much to be discovered in the treating of conditions impacting the heart. Research into allograft stem cell therapy as a beneficial treatment for individuals suffering from various heart conditions has been promising. Preclinical studies of allograft stem cell therapy for cardiovascular disease indicate that cell therapy promotes cardiac repair. The quality of this research has improved over the past 10 to 15 years due to the amount of time it has been a serious subject of study. While allograft stem cells are not argued to provide for complete cardiac recovery, the research is still promising for individuals who are undergoing other treatments and lifestyle changes and are considering adding allograft stem cell therapy as a treatment option. Considered a regenerative treatment option,...
