Unveiling the Potential Breakthrough - Activating Stem Cells to Delay and Reduce Dementia and Depression Risk

LOS ANGELES, September 14, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Alzheimer's disease and dementia severity in the United States is escalating, posing a growing public health crisis. With an aging population, millions are affected by these devastating conditions. The ratio of Alzheimer's patients in the 65+ demographic has reached 1 in 9 based on the study by the American CDC (Center of Disease Control and Prevention), highlighting the urgent need for research, care improvements, and increased awareness to address their profound social, economic, and emotional impact.

In response to World Alzheimer's Month, Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital and Power-Stem Biomedical Group (Parent Company of Beauty-Stem Biomedical) jointly held a symposium. Dr. Jia-Fu Lee from Tzu Chi Hospital and Dr. Chai-Ching Lin, the President of Power-Stem Biomedical, discussed the testing data from a human trial program. 

"Our momentous achievement has arrived!" declared Dr. Chai-Ching Lin, President, Power-Stem Biomedical. "We proudly introduce the world's first stem cell supplement, underwent by rigorous clinical trials and scientific validation. This marks an exciting breakthrough in regenerative supplements, a new chapter in our commitment to advancing science and improving lives."

They assessed brain degeneration by measuring Alzheimer's Disease Risk Index (ADRI) and CD34+ hematopoietic stem cell levels through scientific and quantitative blood tests after the usage of CD34 NU-Signals. It has been observed that when individuals start to notice memory and cognitive decline, the number of stem cells in their bodies also decreases significantly. Clinically, early detection and prevention are possible through a healthy diet, quality sleep, and regular exercise. And refer to the study, activating autologous stem cells through stem cell nutrients can significantly reduce value of ADRI risk index and increase stem cell count.

Dr. Lee from Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital's Dementia Care Center stated that by analyzing brain waves with ADRI technology, and evaluating the risk of dementia through blood tests, it is possible to objectively detect the levels of depression and dementia risk. Through personalized regenerative supplement, mental well-being, exercise, and quality sleep, one can regain cardiovascular and brain health vitality.

Dr. Lin has been researching the field of stem cells for many years, and she has contributed significantly to stem cell nutrition. She has published multiple patents, scientific journals, and books. Dr. Lin emphasizes the importance of paying attention to one's "Health Deposit" after the age of 40. Therefore, tracking CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells, NK natural killer cells, and ADRI annually are crucial life indicators to better understand one's hematopoietic capacity, immune system, and self-healing ability.

Dr. Lee added that, especially in the case of ADRI values, they should be improved to reach a score of 0. Maintaining a happy and contented mind is essential for effectively staying away from depression and dementia.

BALTIMORE, September 14, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The Episcopal Diocese of Maryland is pleased to announce the ordination and consecration of the Rev. Carrie Schofield-Broadbent as Bishop Coadjutor of Maryland. The consecration will take place on Saturday, September 16, 2023, 11:00 AM at the iconic Washington National Cathedral, 3101 Wisconsin Ave NW, Washington, DC 20016. All are welcome. Tickets not required. The service will be livestreamed. Details on the event and livestream are found here: https://episcopalmaryland.org/event/consecration-of-the-bishop-coadjutor-of-maryland/. Bishop-elect Schofield-Broadbent was elected March 25, 2023.

A press conference with the Right Rev. Mary Gray-Reeves, chief consecrator, and Bishop-elect Carrie Schofield-Broadbent to discuss the future of the Church will be held at 10:15 AM on Friday, September 15 at American University Conference Facility - East Campus Commons, 3319-3395 New Mexico Ave NW, Washington, DC 20016. 

All press are invited to both events.

Deeply committed to honoring the dignity of every human being, the Rev. Schofield-Broadbent consistently attends to her own work around race, climate change, economic justice, and full-inclusion of LGBTQAI+ persons and is committed to helping the Church grow in these areas. Her consecration represents a significant step in furthering the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland's commitment to inclusive leadership and fostering a vibrant, diverse, and welcoming faith community.

The service on Saturday will be a grand celebration of the call of a bishop in The Episcopal Church, which is, in part, to "guard the faith, unity, and discipline of the Church..." (from the Book of Common Prayer, p. 516). The Right Rev. Mary Gray-Reeves, Vice President of the House of Bishops and Managing Director of the College for Bishops, will serve as chief consecrator, joined by a gathering of bishops, clergy, and lay leaders from across The Episcopal Church.

Bishop-elect Carrie Schofield-Broadbent identifies her own core values of ministry as: trust and relationships, truth and transparency, and compassion and faithfulness. These qualities reveal themselves in who God has created her to be: a bridge-builder, someone who is not afraid of tough conversations, and an encourager - grounded in integrity, creativity, and the love of Jesus. Open to the movement of the Holy Spirit, her collaborative leadership style combines strength, graciousness, authenticity, strategy and a generous sense of humor. Her leadership will help guide the work of the people of the Diocese of Maryland into its next phases of building beloved community by doing wonderful reckoning and research around their ties to racism and reparations, and applying those skills to enter deeper conversation with Indigenous people, to look at environmental issues and to seek justice, even when it's hard.

Study from The Harris Poll Thought Leadership and Futures Practice finds LGBTQIA+ community, especially younger generations, is committed to pushing back against attacks on rights

NEW YORK, September 14, 2023 (Newswire.com) - With new laws, court verdicts, and political rhetoric on marriage equality, trans athletes, gender-neutral bathrooms, drag queen shows, and other issues, new research from The Harris Poll Thought Leadership and Futures Practice finds a near-unanimous belief in the LGBTQIA+ community that their rights are in jeopardy. But the research also reveals the extraordinary levels of that community's political activism - and an unexpected optimism about the long-term future of LGBTQIA+ rights in America.

The study, "Inclusive Insights: LGBTQIA+ & Advocacy," is based on a custom survey by The Harris Poll conducted online within the United States from May 26 to June 1 among 1,110 LGBTQIA+ adults aged 18 and over. (LGBTQIA+ is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, asexual, and other identities.)

"You might expect that some people within the LGBTQIA+ community are concerned about their rights, given societal trends and recent events," said Tim Osiecki, Senior Research Manager at The Harris Poll Thought Leadership and Futures Practice. "And indeed, our research shows that the concern is almost universally shared. It also shows that the community - especially younger members from the Gen Z and Millennial generations - is responding with a broad and significant commitment to efforts to preserve those rights and that they ultimately believe the tide will turn."  

A chief finding of the study is that the LGBTQIA+ community is deeply concerned about legislation passed or advancing at the state and federal levels. Respondents were almost unanimous (98%) in their concern that one or more existing rights could be taken away from LGBTQIA+ people. 

Four out of five (81%) agreed with the statement "With hundreds of anti-LGBTQIA+ bills pending legislation in the U.S., I feel very nervous about my rights as an LGBTQIA+ individual." Even more (85%) agreed that "There are many groups within the LGBTQIA+ community that often get overlooked or picked on by politicians and lawmakers."

Respondents' top concerns: 

• Protection against discrimination in schools (87%) 
• Discrimination protection in the workplace (85%) 
• Right to access housing (84%) 
• Right to get married (83%)
• LGBTQIA+ inclusive education (83%)

However, the community is far from despairing - LGBTQIA+ people are putting time, energy, creativity, money, and votes into defending their rights. More than nine out of 10 (93%) LGBTQIA+ people reported taking some sort of political action other than voting to defend their rights. 

The study found that the vast majority (84%) of LGBTQIA+ people vote regularly, with 71% voting in federal elections and 67% in local elections - well above typical nationwide marks of about 52% and 12 to 25%, respectively.  

Over half (58%) donate money, about a third march or protest (39%), attend political events (32%), or write letters (30%) advocating for their rights. More than one in three (37%) said they have considered running for political office - and that percentage jumps to 60% among transgender respondents.

The study also found that members of younger generations (Gen Z, Millennials) are more likely to engage in activism than older members of the LGBTQIA+ community - in some areas, twice as likely. For example, 34% of younger LGBTQIA+ people have volunteered or worked on a campaign, compared to 19% of their older counterparts; 29% of younger generations belong to organized groups that engage in political efforts, compared to 13% of older generations.

The study also closely examined specific issues such as the drag queen bans that have received prominent media coverage. Eight out of 10 respondents said they were concerned about those bans (81%) and feared they could "snowball into lawmakers taking away more and more rights" (80%).

In addition, the study focused on issues faced by subsets of the LGBTQIA+ community, people who identify as BIPOC or transgender.  

Almost three-quarters (72%) of queer BIPOC (Black, indigenous, people of color) members said they had trouble finding communities and resources that understand them, and about two-thirds (64%) have to "code switch" or change how they communicate to fit in with the two communities. Almost half (48%) said they have had to relocate to avoid hostile laws or political environments (compared to 40% of queer non-BIPOC members).  

Possibly reflecting the current political climate, nearly nine out of 10 (87%) trans people agreed with the statement "Our society values humanity in AI and robots more than in trans people." More than six out of 10 (62%) said they have relocated due to hostile laws or political environments. 

And yet, even as they hold deep concerns about rhetoric and legislation and devote themselves to political activism to defend their rights, people in the LGBTQIA+ community still hold optimism about the future. A strong majority (84%) agreed with the statement "I am hopeful that things are going to improve on the LGBTQIA+ rights" and about two out of three said that the improvement might be soon, agreeing that "I think it's likely that things will improve for LGBTQIA+ rights within the next five years." 

"It's clear from this study and our previous work that the country's LGBTQIA+ community believes that though our society has made progress on these issues, we still need to work to preserve and expand the community's rights, and that people believe that progress is not only possible but probable," Osiecki said.
