Frequently Asked Questions
What are adult stem cells and why are they important?
A stem cell is often called a “master” cell because it can develop into most tissues and organs. Thus, stem cells are the fundamental building blocks that exist within our bodies.
Many people are unaware that adults have stem cells and that these adult stem cells are found almost everywhere in the body. These stem cells are in the bone marrow, fat, brain, muscles, eyes, heart…basically all tissues of the body. What scientists and doctors are realizing is that these adult stem cells are responsible for keeping us healthy. Adult stem cells help keep the immune system working properly so that the body can essentially repair and heal itself.
According to the National Institutes of Health, the primary roles of adult stem cells are to maintain and repair tissue. As we age, our adult stem cells decrease in number and begin to lose their ability to maintain a healthy immune system. Due to the degradation of our adult stem cells over a lifetime we become more open to injury, degenerative disorders and health-related issues. Thus, it is important to maintain the health and vitality of your body’s own stem cells.

The Science of NutraStem®
Recently, our team at Natura Therapeutics, Inc. published a scientific article that shows the effectiveness of NutraStem® on human stem cells (Bickford et al., 2006; Stem Cells & Development). We exposed three different types of adult stem cells, commonly found within the body, to natural compounds known to promote healing and measured the growth of these cells. Our results demonstrate a significant growth in these cells exposed to blueberry extract, green tea, catechin, carnosine and Vitamin D3, and that a specific combination of these ingredients at certain doses could promote even more growth of these stem cells. The combination of ingredients at certain doses that produced the maximum growth of the stem cells was chosen as the base formulation for NutraStem®. Learn More.
