FAQ

The FDA has restricted the distribution of stem cells in the USA and we therefore comply with this and only offer stem cells outside of the USA.
Currently, we do not offer stem cells to any clinics in the USA due to the FDA regulations. We do however offer stem cells to several clinics in close proximity to the USA.

Stem cells are like the body’s initial cells – cells from which all other cells with specialized functions are generated. There are three types of stem cells: Totipotent, Pluripotent, and Multipotent.  Learn more.

Stem cells are used to assist in the bodies natural processes and support the best bodily functions.  Learn More.

All Shine Stem Cells are from willing and healthy donors. We work directly with the MD’s and hospitals to schedule the best times for the donors. Using a proprietary process the umbilical cord and placenta are carefully processed for maximum stem cell viability and extraction.

All donors are pre-screened via comprehensive medical prenatal evaluations to determine eligibility in accordance with FDA and Current Good Tissue Practice (CGTP) guidelines. Using this screening process in addition to screening the tissues collected, we ensure the best quality. We cannot, however, disclose the donor’s identity. All donors are young, healthy and willing donors who are eager to have the stem cells be used to support others.

The process of extracting our stem cells is done in FDA approved facilities which are fully sanitized with full clean-room enclosures. We distribute our 50x Stem Cells to several countries outside the USA for use in many clinics worldwide.

Stem cells are not a cure for any ailment or disease. Stem cells are intended to supplement and support the recipient’s natural recovery and healing processes.

Our stem cells are to be used only by licensed medical professionals for a single, unrelated, allogeneic patient and should not be modified or mixed. Our stem cells are intended for homologous, one-time use only and for research purposes only.

The research is a bit unclear with the number of treatments. Some studies show dramatic benefit after only one use and others over several uses. It is important that the stem cells being used are of the highest quality and actually have living cells. One of hte problems facing our industry is the quality of stem cells varies greatly. Many providers actually sell product with zero living stem cells. This obviously, affects the quality of treatment and outcomes. At Shine Bioscience we pride ourselves in having the highest quality stem cells we’ve ever tested. Our proprietary process maintains the maximum number of living cells, this is the 50X difference.

Allogeneic Stem Cell Therapy is not FDA approved in the United States.

Extensive screenings are performed throughout our proprietary process beginning with the donor, postnatal tissues, and after processing. Our proprietary blend of Young Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) and other components retain their efficacy and viability even after cryopreservation. Having actual living stem cells makes a big difference in the outcome which is why we are so pleased to offer our 50X stem cells. We have a higher living stem cell count than any other competitor we’ve ever tested.

Various factors including your health could influence your body’s natural response. However, individuals have experienced noticeable improvement just days after treatment.

Stem Cell Therapy stimulates the body’s natural repair response of affected tissues.

Stem Cell Therapy is not covered by most routine insurance.

Stem Cell Therapy promotes the body’s natural repair response of tissues that are injured, diseased, or otherwise dysfunctional while PRP is an anti-inflammatory treatment option to combat pain. Some clinics and medical professionals will do both PRP and stem cell treatments in unison.

Shine Bioscience’s stem cells are sourced from postnatal tissues that have been screened and donated after scheduled cesarean births. All 50X stem cells come from willing and healthy donors. Umbilical and placenta derived stem cells, like 50X, are ethical and sustainable. Learn More
