    09/12/2025

    Episode 82 - Christian Drapeau - StemRegen & the Power of StemCells: Reboot Your Body’s RepairSystem

    MEET THE GUESTChristian Drapeau discovers and develops ways to enhance human production of stem cells naturally, mostly through plant extracts that stimulate the body’s own stem cell production. He was the first to propose and publish the hypothesis that stem cells constitute the "repair system" of the body, as published in his Medical Hypotheses article in October 2002, and documented in the first edition of his book Cracking the Stem Cell Code. He is STEMREGEN Founder and Chief Science Officer, where he continues his work of researching and developing novel stem cell enhancers. He has 700,000 followers on TikTok (@StemCellChristian) where he discusses a variety of wellness topics and educates about stem cells. WHAT WE TALK ABOUT Christian Drapeau’s 25-year journey from neuroscience to pioneering the concept of stem cells as the body’s innate repair system. The groundbreaking discovery that plant-based compounds, like those in blue-green algae, can stimulate the release of millions of stem cells from the bone marrow within hours. How stem cell numbers naturally decline with age and how this impacts tissue regeneration, inflammation, organ function, and the onset of chronic illness. The three critical phases for optimal stem cell function: release from bone marrow, circulation through the bloodstream, and migration to damaged tissues. How the StemRegen formulas, Release, Mobilize, and Signal, are designed to support each phase of stem cell activity with evidence-based plant extracts. Synergistic “stacking” strategies to amplify repair: using PEMF, red light therapy, hyperbaric oxygen (HBOT), intermittent fasting, and autophagy to enhance results. Enlightening healing stories, including cardiac recovery, cartilage regrowth, and neurological improvements, showing the regenerative potential of activating your own stem cells. Why stem cell tracking may become a new standard in preventive medicine, helping us monitor aging and chronic disease risk with greater precision. The broader implications of stem cells in maintaining cellular health, immune resilience, and recovery, and why Christian believes this is the future of holistic healing.

Stephanie discovered the health benefits of C15:0 while working for the US Navy to continually improve the long-term health of Navy bottlenose dolphins. While seeking to understand why some dolphins were aging at healthier and slower rates than others, Stephanie applied an advanced technology called metabolomics on archived dolphin serum to discover which molecules predicted the healthiest aging dolphins. Here, she discovered C15:0 as a healthy saturated fatty acid. Upon completing eight key studies over three years, she presented C15:0 as the first essential fatty acid to be found in almost 100 years. WHAT WE TALK ABOUT How dolphin longevity studies led to the discovery of C15:0, a new essential fatty acid. The difference between C15 and omega-3s, and why C15 is more stable and resilient. Why modern diets are deficient in C15 and the risks of replacing dairy with alternatives like oat and almond milk. Dietary sources of C15 and how grass-fed dairy and whole fish can raise levels. How C15 strengthens cell membranes, reduces inflammation, and protects against age-related diseases. The link between C15 and the endocannabinoid system, dopamine regulation, and improved mood, energy, and sleep. Comparisons between C15, metformin, and rapamycin in longevity pathways like AMPK and mTOR. Early research on C15’s anti-cancer and anti-fibrotic effects in cell and mouse studies. How to test your C15 levels and what optimal cellular levels look like. The science behind C15 as a safer, natural alternative to pharmaceutical longevity drugs.
