Abstract

There are many products on the market claiming the presence of live deer placenta stem cells (SC) in certain food supplement capsules. It has been claimed these live stem cells are able to remain bioactive for 2-4 years, providing live stem cell therapy and therapeutic benefits such as curing or helping to treat many diseases or altering human physiology for better health [1-7]. This research is aimed at determining the presence/absence of live deer placenta stem cells in commercially available capsules.
