    I honestly can’t imagine that stem cell treatment is going to be practical until there is set organization in the field. Regulation should be imparted on medical tourism in general, not just stem cells. Would be nice to see more companies like Stem Cell Therapy Finder that can weed out the snake-oil and potentially harmful stem cell therapies that are currently out there.

    With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods to help reduce content from being ripped off? I’d really appreciate it.
