    Christian Drapeau: Stem Cells Are The Future of Medicine | EP 494

    Embark on a scientific journey in this episode of the Align Podcast as we delve into the fascinating world of stem cells with renowned neurophysiology scientist, Christian Drapeau. With over two decades of research, Christian brings to light the origins of stem cells, the potential of plant extracts in enhancing stem cell regeneration, the risks associated with exogenous stem cells, and the latest findings in longevity research.


    In this detailed discussion, Christian explains the different types of stem cells, their sources, and how cutting-edge science is utilizing plant-based extracts to promote the body's natural regenerative capabilities. He also addresses the ethical considerations and potential risks involved in stem cell therapy, providing a balanced view on this groundbreaking area of science.

    This episode is a must-watch for anyone interested in the latest advancements in medical science, particularly in how stem cells can be harnessed to improve health and potentially extend life spans.




    More About Christian:



    Christian Drapeau, MSc. is a neurophysiology scientist and leading voice on stem cells who focuses on discovering and developing 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 peer-reviewed Medical Hypotheses article in October 2002, and documented in the first edition of his breakthrough book Cracking the Stem Cell Code in 2010. These findings made him the first to name a new bodily system since the early 1900s. Owning multiple patents related to stem cells, he has spent over 23 years conducting research to better understand the role they play in the human body and identifying ways to improve the performance of the body’s repair system, the foundation of regenerative medicine. Christian Drapeau holds a degree in neurophysiology from the Montreal Neurological Institute in Montreal, Canada. He has given over 300 scientific lectures on stem cells in 51 countries, and is fluent in three languages. He has been Director of R&D and Chief Science Officer for a number of companies, including his most recent venture STEMREGEN, where he is Founder and CEO and 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.
