Stem Cells: The Body’s Master Healers and How to Activate Them Naturally
Stem cells are the body’s raw materials—unspecialized cells with the potential to develop into many different types of cells, from muscle to nerve to skin. These cells are the cornerstone of repair and regeneration. While many associate stem cell therapy with cutting-edge clinics or lab research, the truth is our body naturally produces and mobilizes stem cells—especially when we give it the right conditions.
This article explores the science of stem cells, unconventional ways to support their proliferation (including urine therapy and aged urine which is FREE), and modern medical innovations like the Cellular Performance Institute in Mexico (which is not FREE).

🌱 What Are Stem Cells and How Do They Heal the Body?
Stem cells serve two critical roles:
1. Self-Renewal: They replicate endlessly.
2. Differentiation: They can become specialized cells (e.g., skin, muscle, nerve).
When tissue is damaged—whether from injury, inflammation, or disease—stem cells migrate to the area, reduce inflammation, and begin tissue repair. They signal other cells to clean up cellular debris and promote regeneration.
🧬 Where Are Stem Cells Made?
• Bone marrow: Primary source of hematopoietic stem cells (blood cell regeneration).
• Fat tissue (adipose): Rich in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) that can become bone, cartilage, or muscle.
• Umbilical cord blood and placental tissue: Abundant in young, versatile stem cells.
• Urine (yes, really!): As discovered in pioneering research, especially after extended fasting or urine therapy.
⸻
💧 Urine Therapy, Stem Cells & the Wake Forest Study
A groundbreaking study from Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine showed that stem cells isolated from human urine could differentiate into multiple cell types, including bone, muscle, and nerve cells. Interestingly, 21-day urine samples (especially from fasting individuals) showed higher concentrations of viable stem-like cells.
“The study demonstrates that human primary urinary stem cells with positive telomerase activity act as a distinct subpopulation with potential regeneration capacity in both cell growth and its capacity to become other cells, Zhang said. Better understanding of alterations in this cell subpopulation throughout the human lifespan, and how they translate into, aging, kidney damage, or cancer, among others will be beneficial overall.
“As a safe cell source, telomerase-positive human urine-derived stem cells have a robust regenerative potential, which might induce better tissue repair,” said Zhang.”
When I was at my sickest trying to heal my pancreatic insufficiency I began to really research stem cells and continuously came back to urine therapy as the safest most viable option, not to mention it’s completely FREE!
I took Dr. Edward Group’s course on urotherapy and it was transformative.
☕️ Dr. Edward Group and Urine Therapy
Dr. Group discusses urine as a filtrate containing antibodies, hormones, enzymes, and even stem cell precursors. His approach suggests that:
• Fresh urine recirculated through drinking provides bioavailable healing compounds.
• Aged urine, when fermented (stored in a sealed container for 7–30+ days), becomes enzymatically richer. Adding 5ml aged urine rectally reportedly delivers potent stem cell activation benefits through mucosal absorption.

⚠️ Note: Always research deeply and proceed mindfully. Aged urine is a controversial practice and not widely accepted in mainstream medicine.
🧪 What Is Urine Therapy?
Urine therapy (also known as 'Urotherapy' and 'Shivambu') is an ancient method that has existed since the age of ancient Greece, Rome, India, China, and more. Originated in the sacred text, 'The Vedas,' urine therapy was thought to be the secret of regeneration, youth, and divine manifestation.
In The Natural Benefits of Urine Therapy, Bhurani states, “Urine Therapy is found in almost all the volumes of Ayurveda. In ancient books and Vedas, Urine is referred to as “Shivambu” (auto-urine), which means Water of Shiva. They termed “Shivambu” as holy liquid. According to them, urine is more nutritious than milk. Urine Therapy is an effective system and it is entirely drugless system of healing all chronic disease. It can be adopted by everyone
including young children suffering from cerebral palsy from the very birth.
God has given a wonderful gift to man, his own water “SHIVAMBU”. SHIV means beneficial,
Salubrious, and ‘AMBU’ means water.
There are many people who have misconceptions about URINE and they think that it is dirty, even poisonous, because it is discharged by the body. URINE looked down upon and treated as body waste by most people, is actually much cleaner than water. Not only has that, but the drinking of one’s own urine undoubtedly a very shocking thought, cured many otherwise incurable ailments.
Until you try it, you will never know how good its effects are on your body. You will be really surprised by the good results. Moreover, you won’t have to bear as much pain, go to the doctor so often, or spend so much on conventional medical treatments. Urine is a filtrate of one’s own blood."

A short excerpt from her book :
“AN AMAZING UNTOLD STORY
There is an extraordinary natural healing substance PRODUCED BY OUR OWN
BODIES that modern medical science has proven to be one of the most powerful
natural medicines known to man.
Unlike many other natural medical therapies, this method requires no monetary
investment a doctors' intervention and can be easily accessed and used at any time.
The extensive medical research findings on this natural medicine have never been
compiled and released to the general public before now, but those who have been
fortunate enough to hear about this medicine and use it have found that it can
produce often astounding healing even when all other therapies have failed.
This book tells of the doctors, medical researchers and the hundreds of other
people who have used this extraordinary medicine throughout our century to cure a
huge variety of common illnesses and to combat even the most incurable diseases.
This is the extraordinary untold story of a natural healing substance so remarkable
that it can only be called our own perfect medicine.
My own experience with this little-known natural medicine began as a result of my
search for an answer to many years of serious chronic illnesses that had begun very
early in life. Like thousands of people today, I had developed chronic, degenerative
disorders that couldn't be helped by conventional medicine and which threatened to
permanently destroy my ability to work, function and simply enjoy life.
When I was young, I suffered through the same measles, mumps, chicken pox and
colds that everyone else did. And like other children, I played hard, worked hard,
and dreamed of the day when I would become a vigorous, emancipated teenager,
just like everyone else. But, for me, that particular dream wasn't going to come
true.”

⸻
⚖️ Health Risks & Medical Cautions
• Contamination risk: Though initially sterile in the bladder, urine can be contaminated and may introduce infections .
• Toxin recirculation: Reintroducing waste metabolites, drugs, and urea may tax kidneys or cause toxicity . The key to avoiding this to urinate for 4 seconds before catching the midstream urine.
• Lack of scientific evidence: No controlled clinical trials validate its efficacy for cancer or stem cells .
• No regulatory oversight: Practiced outside mainstream medicine; dosage, sterility, and protocols vary widely.

🦘 Jumping for Stem Cells
Jumping on a rebounder (mini trampoline) activates bone marrow stem cell release due to:
• Mechanical stimulation of bone tissue
• Lymphatic drainage and improved circulation
• Hormetic stress response, a proven stem cell stimulant
Just 5–10 minutes of rebounding per day can increase the mobilization of circulating stem cells and support detox.
⸻
✨ Fasting and Stem Cells
Fasting—particularly water fasting of 24 hours or more—stimulates stem cell proliferation. Dr. Valter Longo’s research at USC showed that prolonged fasting triggers:
• Autophagy (cellular cleanup)
• Stem cell-based regeneration of the immune system
• Repair of intestinal lining and brain tissue
Women may benefit from aligning fasting with their cycle. A 48–72 hour fast done during the follicular phase (day 4–11 of the cycle) may enhance regeneration without disturbing hormones.
How about this for a wild idea—Fasting + Urotherapy = profound healing and stem cell regeneration.

🧠The Role of Very Small Embryonic-Like Stem Cells (VSELs)
A cutting-edge discovery is VSELs—tiny, dormant stem cells found in bone marrow and peripheral blood. These cells may be activated through:
Extended fasting
Cold exposure
Ozone therapy
NAD+ and methylene blue
VSELs are believed to hold immense regenerative power—even surpassing conventional stem cells—but require activation due to their dormancy.
Final Thoughts:
I believe stem cells are the key to organ regeneration and it’s vitally important to increase your body’s natural stem cells. Follow up with me and let me know how you’re incorporating these practices into your daily life.
