Take Control of Your Health

I know stem cell research is really controversial but I wanted to take a minute to share what I found on this website for C'elle. On this website, you can get a kit to collect vital stem cells painlessly during that "special" time of month. These stem cells could be used sometime in the future as they key to treating a very serious disease that you, a parent, a sibling, or even a child may face. Osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease could be treated because you used this kit from C'elle to harvest stem cells from your own menstrual blood.

Yes the thought may just seem icky and no one really wants to think about what may happen if they, or a loved one, were diagnosed with a life threatening illness. However, we really should take control of our futures. Even the busiest woman can benefit from the technology of C'elle.

It's simple, you just go to their website and order your kit. They'll instruct you on exactly how to harvest the cells and it can be done on your own time and in the privacy of your own home. Who would have thought something that most of us curse once a month could actually be used to save our lives. I guess that's just another wonderful gift of being a woman.

Taking Control: Future Therapies for a Host of Serious Diseases May Be Found in Women's Menstrual Blood

July 07, 2008: 01:28 PM EST


OLDSMAR, Fla., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- With today’s hectic lifestyle, where most women are juggling careers, family, relationships, and a host of activities, the idea of possibly facing a serious illness in the future is not something that readily comes to mind -- especially when a woman is in the prime of her life. But what most women don’t know, is that the key to treating a number of possibly life-threatening diseases that she, a parent, a sibling or even her children may face in later years, such as osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, may be found within her own body -- in vital stem cells, which can now be harvested from her own menstrual blood.

Now, thanks to the revolutionary research and technology of C’elle, a service dedicated to providing women with a safe and easy method of collecting and preserving stem cells found in her menstrual fluid each month, even the busiest woman can take control of her future, right in the privacy of her own home. With C’elle’s non-invasive collection process, menstrual cells are processed and cryo-preserved (stored at a very low temperature) for potential cellular therapies that may be used in the future. These self-renewing cells one day may even be used for sports medicine or cosmeceutical treatments, such as anti-aging therapies.

"C’elle enables and empowers a woman to take control of her future health, and possibly of those genetically closest to her, in a fast, painless and stress free way," said Michelle Kay, Marketing and Sales Manager for C’elle. "We live in exciting times, as science and technology are discovering how extremely valuable menstrual blood stem cells really are, and the enormous treatment potential they represent for future therapies. C’elle’s ongoing research is supporting these promising findings."
