reduce inflammation, toxin levels, and fibrosis to provide optimal environment for a body’s adult stem cells, and
therapeutics that promote healthy circulation and hormone levels to provide optimal micro-environment for adult
stem cells.

Second solution : stem cell therapy. A small number of Adult Stem Cells are removed from blood or fat. They are
expanded in incubator and rejuvenated without changing stem cell state. They are then injected back into a
particular body system to cure dysfunction or disease. Centagen has developed a platform to rejuvenate and expand
adult stem cells extracted from a patient’s own fat, bone marrow or blood.
