Regenocyte Therapeutic Announces Successful Treatment of Cardiomyopathy for Retired Teacher Using Adult Stem Cells
After Years of Suffering, Patient Receives Adult Stem Cell Therapy to Increase Heart Function
NAPLES, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Regenocyte Therapeutic has announced results for the successful treatment of cardiomyopathy for retired high school teacher, Leonard Narracci. In this ground-breaking treatment, he was injected with his own stem cells by Regenocyte Therapeutic, headquartered in Bonita Springs, Florida, and has experienced remarkable improvement in his condition.
Cardiomyopathy is a heart condition that affects, among other things, the amount of blood that gets pumped out of the heart. This debilitating disease has no cure, so Narracci had settled into a routine that consisted of a sedentary lifestyle and taking his daily medication – a dramatic departure from the active life he could no longer enjoy.
Before he was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, Narracci had energy to spare. A high school teacher during his working years, Narracci always looked forward to active summer vacations that included working on his small farm and enthusiastically pursuing his hobbies.
Not long after Narracci retired and moved to Venice, Florida, Narracci began to suffer from weakness and fatigue. Tasks that he had always been able to handle with ease became overwhelming and often went unfinished. When his condition became nearly hopeless, Narracci sought help from one of the nation’s leading adult stem cell physicians, Dr. Zannos Grekos.
“A patient’s own stem cells can do remarkable things when it comes to the treatment of serious heart, vascular and other diseases,” Dr. Grekos said. “This treatment is not just giving patients hope, it is giving them back their lives.”
Besides cardiomyopathy, Regenocyte Therapeutic Adult Stem Cell Therapy has successfully treated devastating diseases including, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, ischemic heart disease, peripheral artery disease, severe pulmonary disease and many other ailments.
In the case of cardiomyopathy and other heart diseases, stem cells taken from the patient are injected directly into the heart. The cells immediately begin to repair areas damaged by disease.
Here is how the adult stem cell therapy process works:
“Most patients begin to show improvement within a week or so of this revolutionary treatment,” Dr. Grekos said. “Optimal improvement in the patient’s condition is usually realized within about six months.”
“I was expecting improvements, but not so quickly,” Narracci said. “After two weeks, my Ejection Fraction rate (the rate at which blood is pumped out of the heart) had gone up eight points,” he said. “I was amazed!”
Every time Narracci was checked over the next year, his tests showed astonishing improvement. Prior to the treatment, Narracci’s ejection rate was around 20 percent; a year later, that had improved to a noteworthy 52 percent, an ejection rate that is in the normal range.
Dr. Grekos is a Clinical Assistant Professor for Nova Southeastern University; a Distinguished Fellow of the American Academy of Cardiology; a Diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine; and a Diplomate of the American Board of Cardiovascular Disease. He will be a featured speaker at the 17th Annual World Congress on Anti-Aging Medicine & Regenerative Biomedical Technologies in Las Vegas December 9 – 12, 2009.
Local and national seminars are often conducted to educate the public about the state-of-the-art treatment of adult stem cell therapy. The next seminar will be held January 20, 2010 at 10 a.m. at the Collier County Regional Library, 2385 Orange Blossom Drive, Naples, Fl.
