#147 - Is Your Doctor Misleading You About Stem Cell Treatment?

You might think you’ve had stem cell therapy—but did you really?

As someone who works with stem cells every day, I hear this all the time: “Oh yeah, I had stem cell treatment.” But when I dig a little deeper, I often find out they had PRP, exosomes, or amniotic fluid injections—none of which actually contain living stem cells.

In this episode, I break down exactly what these therapies are, how they work, and why they’re often mistaken for stem cell therapy. I explain what PRP really is, what exosomes do, and the truth about amniotic fluid treatments. These therapies have value, but it’s time to stop calling them something they’re not.

I also share important insights into why true stem cell therapy is different and why it matters for your results. There’s a lot of confusion out there, and this episode will give you clarity on what cells are.

So if you’ve ever received a so-called “stem cell” treatment, or you’re considering one, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
