Stem Cell From Sheep

[jimbbc]

There's a doctor in Bangkok that uses stem cells from sheep. It's very expensive, around $6,500 but he says it can be the answer to improving the health of the whole body. Has anyone taken the proceedure or known anyone that has?

Sounds pretty spurious to me. What evidence or research does he use to base his treatments on? Proceed with caution if you are considering it.

Whats he gonna do with them??!! Sounds like rubbish IMHO. Jumping on the stem cell "all curing elixr" band wagon and trying to make a few bucks in the process.

Yes, there is great potential in the use of stem cells. Are these uses developed, tested and viable now? No.

As an ex sheep farmer in Australia, I guess it depends on what breed of sheep you're using. The merino, famous for wool, is not noted for its MENSA IQ . The black faced Suffolk on the other hand is highly intelligent, is not frightened by savage dogs and will readily leap barbed wire fences in search of pastures greener. The Jacob sheep however, would be my choice. They are arguably. native to the Hebrides - off Scotland, have 2 sets of horns, a multicoloured brown, black and white fleece, and are just about impervious to all known diseases. ( for the doubters - this is indeed true)

But the serious problem with most sheep is that they tend to live in large groups, don't have too many visionary leaders, consume everything around them without a care for the environment, and spend a lot of time thinking about sex -so whats new ?
