“I participated in a campaign on behalf of Dad Central Consulting for CBR (Cord Blood Registry).”

Did you know that Cord Blood Stem Cells have been used for treatment for more than 80 conditions? I never knew this.
Here’s another interesting fact:
“Newborn stem cells can trigger natural repair processes in the body by reducing inflammation and increasing blood flow to injured or diseased areas. They can also stimulate the growth of new blood vessels and other tissues.”
It just goes to show you how important it is to choose a Cord Blood Registry. More treatments are being evaluated by FDA-regulated clinical trials to help with common health issues including autism. Yet, 90% of blood cord is discarded and goes to medical waste.
With the capacity to create diverse cells for our own immune system, tissue, blood and organs; stem cells are often called the body’s “master cells”. If your family decides to make the decision to bank your child’s cord blood, you need to do this before the due date. Obtaining the blood cord cells is very simple and painless. After the umbilical cord is clamped and cut, the blood cells are then transferred to a “collection bag”. You have options with banking cord blood cells, you can private bank or donate to a public bank.
During February CBR is having a promotion of $200.00 off of banking services. Log onto cordbankingbasics.com for more information.
