#97 - Can Stem Cell Therapy Help With Autism? Here’s What the Science Says

Autism numbers have been rising at an alarming rate all over the world. The numbers are even bleaker in the US, where 1 out of every 36 children is diagnosed with autism.These rates are even scarier knowing that Western medicine and psychiatry has no treatment for autism, choosing instead to focus on symptoms instead of the root cause. However, it’s not all hopeless! Research has shown that stem cell therapy can actually help with autism treatment; stem cells, particularly from umbilical cord blood, can address multiple underlying mechanisms of autism, including inflammation and oxidative stress. And this is only the beginning, as stem cell research is still in its infancy.Though still in early stages, stem cell therapy can offer hope for people suffering from autism and holds immense potential for helping with autism and improving lives, which offers a new path forward beyond the traditional treatments.I discuss all of this in more detail in this week’s episode of The Dr. Joy Kong Podcast, so make sure to give it a listen.Well then, what are you waiting for?Tune in now!Key Takeaways:Introduction (00:00)Let’s talk about stem cell therapy and autism (04:30)How stem cells can help autism (11:12)What clinical studies show (21:49)Are we making a real difference?
