Stem Cell Therapy For Diabetes
Can Stem Cells Cure Diabetes?
Stem cells cannot completely cure diabetes, but they offer promising benefits:
- Type 1 Diabetes: Stem cell applications in the "honeymoon phase" protect existing beta cells from autoimmune attacks, prolonging insulin production.
- Type 2 Diabetes: Improves overall health and blood parameters, while also addressing secondary complications of diabetes.
How Stem Cells Help:
- Positive effects on HbA1c, C-peptide, and other blood parameters.
- Repairing tissue and organ damage caused by diabetes.
Treatment Plan
Duration: 15 Days
Procedures Include:
- Stem Cell Applications:
- 3 doses of allogeneic umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
- 3 doses of exosomes derived from allogeneic stem cells (10^9 billion particles).
- Administration Method: Intravenous
- Pre-Treatment Evaluations:
- Consultation with an endocrinology specialist.
- Consultation with a nutrition and diet specialist.
- Comprehensive blood tests (general panels).
- Supportive Therapies:
- Ozone therapy (6 sessions).
- Personalized dietary and supplement recommendations.
Important Notes:
- Additional Diagnostic Tests: Further testing may be required based on the physician's evaluation.
- Effectiveness Disclaimer: While these treatments aim to improve overall health parameters, complete recovery or specific outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Liv Hospital Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell FAQ’s
Can stem cells cure diabetes completely?
Stem cells cannot completely cure diabetes. For Type 1 diabetes, stem cells can help protect remaining beta cells during the honeymoon phase. For Type 2 diabetes, they improve blood parameters and overall health, particularly by reducing the risk of secondary complications associated with diabetes.
How do stem cells work in diabetes treatment?
Stem cells regenerate damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and prevent immune cells in an overactive state from attacking beta cells. They also improve blood markers, such as HbA1c and C-peptide, and repair tissue or organ damage caused by diabetes.
Who is eligible for stem cell therapy in diabetes?
Stem cell therapy is suitable for Type 1 diabetes patients in the honeymoon phase and Type 2 diabetes patients aiming to improve blood parameters and overall health. Eligibility is determined after a comprehensive medical evaluation.
What is included in the treatment process?
The treatment process includes 3 doses of stem cell and exosome applications, 6 sessions of ozone therapy, pre-treatment evaluations such as endocrinology and nutrition consultations, and personalized dietary and supplement recommendations.
Is the procedure painful?
Stem cell therapy is generally painless. Procedures such as intravenous applications are performed with the patient’s comfort as a priority.
