Stem Cells

Store healthy cells today — protect tomorrow's health

A stem cell is a single cell with the unusual ability to produce many other kinds of cells. Stored while you are young and healthy, your own stem cells become a living insurance against illness, intractable disease and viruses.

What a stem cell is

The word stem comes from the idea of origin — the stem from which everything else grows. Because a stem cell carries multipotency, it can regenerate cells in an injured area of the body.

Stem cells have emerged as a new alternative for degenerative conditions and severe trauma where conventional medicine has few options, and they attract particular attention as an approach to diseases where organ function has declined.

The era after the pandemic is, in many ways, an era of living alongside viruses. Extracting and preserving healthy adult stem cells while you are young and well builds the capacity to face disease later — one-to-one personalised cell storage is no longer an option, it is a necessity.

Cell storage, prepared like insurance

Health insurance today, cell insurance for tomorrow. Your own healthy stem cells, collected and preserved at their youngest and strongest, stand ready for the day your body needs them most.

  • One-to-one personalised storage
  • Collected while young and healthy
  • Ready for future treatment

Types of stem cell

01

Embryonic stem cell

EMBRYO STEM CELL

  • Derived from a fertilised egg, with the unlimited capacity to differentiate into every cell type.
  • Researched for regenerating tissue damaged by injury or disease by differentiating into the required tissue.
  • Because a fertilised egg is used, research faces ethical constraints.
02

Adult stem cell

ADULT STEM CELL

  • Present in organs throughout the body, acting to regenerate tissue when the body is damaged.
  • Typical examples include haematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stromal cells found in bone marrow and umbilical cord.
  • Differentiation direction is largely fixed, but the cells are considered relatively safe and are used in many clinical trials.
03

Induced pluripotent stem cell

IPS CELL

  • Adult cells such as skin or blood are reprogrammed backwards into an undifferentiated state with pluripotency close to embryonic stem cells.
  • No donor egg is required, so the ethical issues are avoided while genetic matching with the patient is retained.
  • The reprogramming technique was recognised with the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine.

Five reasons to store your own stem cells

Health insurance today, cell insurance for tomorrow — storing your cells is preparation, not choice.

01

Your own cells cause almost no immune rejection

  • Cells from another person trigger an immune rejection response, while your own cells carry your own tissue compatibility antigen (HLA).
  • Using your own cells means far less transplant rejection and fewer side effects.
02

Cell storage is total life-extension insurance

  • Preserving immune cells and stem cells protects your health against a wide range of diseases.
  • Applications span cancer, neurological disease, vascular disease, muscle and bone disease, tissue and organ damage, and autoimmune disease.
03

Younger, healthier cells give better results

  • As the body ages, cells age with it, and illness reduces stem cell numbers.
  • Proliferation capacity, differentiation capacity and cell activity all decline over time — so storing early matters.
04

Preparation against cancer and disease

  • Surgery carries the risk of organ damage and recurrence; chemotherapy suppresses cancer cells but also destroys healthy ones.
  • Cell-based therapy uses the patient's own cells to normalise a weakened immune system, with low toxicity and few side effects — improving quality of life.
05

Financial insurance alone is no longer enough

  • Nobody can predict which illness will arrive, so preparation is required.
  • In the past, lost health was compensated with money; today it can be secured with your own healthy immune and stem cells.

Who needs it most

01

Family history

  • Direct relatives with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease.
  • Direct relatives with a history of cancer.
  • Relatives who have experienced Alzheimer's or intractable disease.
02

Harmful environments

  • Occupational or environmental exposure to harmful factors.
  • High or sustained stress that can trigger various diseases.
03

Chronic arthritis

  • Those living with the ongoing pain of chronic arthritis.
04

Immunity preparation

  • Anyone who wants to prepare in advance to strengthen their immunity.
  • Those previously seriously ill, or with a weakened constitution.
