1 min read

Doctors in china discovered a new interesting technique to treat diabetic patients

in brief , They make a surgical procedure in which they take some blood from the patient , extract stem cells from WBCs

then , these stem cells are injected to his sick pancreas making it activated again and able to secret insulin ” WOW ! “

the patient can stop taking insulin injections after 2-3 months from the procedure ,

doctors assume that the pancreas will keep working properly with no need to take external insulin for 3-5 years according to the habits and life style of the patient , then the procedure can be re-done again ..

this technique cured 8 patients with diabetes type 1 & type 2 successfully and No side effects have been recorded yet .

i hope things go ok & well 🙂
