In this episode, I sit down in Park City, Utah, with two trailblazers in the regenerative medicine space (and repeat guests): Dr. Harry Adelson and Dr. Amy Killen. They dive deep into the world of the Full Body Stem Cell Make-Over®—exploring what sets their innovative procedures apart, what actually happens during this intensive experience, and why you don’t need to cross any borders to get world-class stem cell treatments.

Together, they unravel common myths about stem cell therapy, clarify the legal landscape in the U.S. versus international clinics, and shed light on how these therapies could impact everything from joint recovery and longevity to skin, sexual health, and even brain function. You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at the safety protocols, sourcing, and advanced technologies—like laser activation and extracellular vesicles—that elevate their practice above the rest.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Avoid expanding stem cells to maintain genetic integrity

Expanding stem cells in a lab, a common practice overseas, can lead to genetic fragility and dilutes the beneficial tissue matrix like Wharton's jelly that helps cells work.

#stem-cell

Utilize sphenopalatine ganglion injection for targeted brain delivery

A sphenopalatine ganglion injection offers a more direct and accurate way to deliver stem cells and extracellular vesicles to the brain than traditional aerosolized methods.

Source allogeneic birth tissue from non-COVID-19 vaccinated mothers for procedures

The allogeneic birth tissue used for these procedures is sourced exclusively from non-COVID-19 vaccinated mothers who have had a Cesarean section birth.

Register under FDA's 361 HCT/P pathway for legal umbilical cord tissue injections

The only way for US physicians to legally inject umbilical cord tissue products outside of a formal drug trial is if they are registered under the FDA's 361 HCT/P pathway.

Prepare blood with Therapeutic Plasma Exchange before stem cell procedure

Performing Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) a week before a stem cell procedure can 'clean' the blood's serum of inflammatory components and microplastics, creating a better environment for the new cells.

Beware contamination risks in overseas clinics

A significant risk of overseas clinics is contamination, with one doctor citing cases of severe, life-altering spinal and kidney infections in patients caused by tap water bacteria.

Activate stem cells with Regenelase laser for arthritis treatment

The Regenelase laser is used to 'activate' stem cells via photobiomodulation before injection and can also be used internally with a fiber optic cable to treat arthritic joints.

Choose Vidi Labs for transparent and FDA-registered quality control

The doctors use Vidi Labs because they are a true manufacturer with complete transparency, where every product is individually FDA-registered as a 361 HCT/P.
