Diseases Treatable with Cord Blood Stem Cells


 
The list of diseases treatable with cord blood stem cells continues to grow.  From humble beginnings, in the 1980's, when only one patient had been treated and only one disease was proven to be treatable, to today, where seventy-six diseases are now treatable and nearly 6000 families have been helped, cord blood stem cells are a modern day miracle for many people.  Listed below are the diseases for which cord blood stem cells are known to be useful.  In time, we hope and expect to add many more diseases to this list including:  autism, breast cancer, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, stroke, spinal cord injury, burns, etc.  Your baby's cord blood stem cells are not only useful for your baby, but also for any family member who may become ill.
