Cord Blood Banking to Save Lives!

When I'll ask you about what is umbilical cord blood and the good things it'll bring, can you directly answer me what is it all about?

I guess it will take time before you can answer me or even worst, you can't answer it. The same is true with me. I am not that familiar of what really is umbilical cord blood and what are the good things that it will bring. But have you heard about Cryo-Cell International? For over 16 years they are already helping over 155,000 families preserve their newborn's umbilical cord blood for potential use against many diseases. This cord blood from babies which is rich in stem cells, which are special cells normally found in our bone marrow, are known to treat 70 diseases, including leukemia, anemia, lymphoma, diabetes and cerebral palsy. In fact, treating diseases with Stem Cells are already proven to be effective and safe.

Along with cord blood banking, Cryo-Cell Cord Blood Bank is pioneering the way in research, to find more solutions to preserve stem cells in a noncontroversial way. With this good procedure in preserving your baby's cord blood and with the help of Cryo-Cell International, there will be a possibility that in 2015, 10,000 cord blood transplants world-wide per year using publicly banked cord blood will happen!

So it's not yet late. We may don't know the value of Cord Blood before, still it's a good time to do the right thing and be able to save lives all over the world!

  2. Umbilical Cord Blood Banking is preserving the stem cells that are extracted from the umbilical cord when your child is delivered. The stem cells are stored so that they can be used in the future if needed by a compatible person. It is kinda like insurance of sorts. There are many diseases that have been successfully treated and more uses are being discovered as research is continuously being done.
