SWISS APPLE STEMCELL

Selepas Menggunakan Stem Cell Apple Kedut Kian Hilang

 SEL STEM EPAL SWISS

APAKAH STEM  SEL EPAL SWISS?

Kepentingan Buah epal dalam tradisi Barat. 

Dalam kitab taurat kisah Nabi adam di usir kerana melanggar larangan memakan buah khuldi.Tetapi dalam kitab Injil di Negara2 Barat di ubah menjadi epal.Ini disebabkan keyakinan kepentingan buah epal kepada tradisi kuno barat.Malah perpatah Inggeris menyatakan "one apple a day keeps doctor away".Dengan memakan sebiji epal setiap hari kita tidak payah jumpa doktor kerana sihat.

Menurut tradisi ahli kitab barat,  Hawa memakan  epal (khuldi) kemudian memujuk Adam memakan buah terlarang dan  dilucutkan hak tinggal di  Syurga ... beliau tertarik dengan rasa yang lazat atau dia sudah tahu sifat-sifat  menakjubkan  buah ini yang mampu mengekalkan keremajaan sesaorang?
PhytoCellTec Malus Domestica memenangi anugerah penyediaan liposomal dipatenkan, jadi yang mengandungi buih kecil yang dibuat daripada bahan yang sama seperti membran sel, berdasarkan sel-sel stem epal Switzerland jarang dipanggil Uttwiler Spätlauber yang berasal dari peringkat anak benih yang ditanam di tengah-tengah the18th abad.Uttwiler Spätlauber pelbagai epal terancam yang terkenal kerana kebolehan yang disimpan untuk tempoh yang lama tanpa mengecut dan dengan itu berpotensi panjang umur .

 Epal kaya dengan fitonutrien, protein dan sel-sel lama hidup. Satu teknologi baru kini telah dibangunkan membolehkan penanaman spesies yang jarang ditemui dan terancam seperti Uttwiler Spätlauber. Terima kasih kepada teknologi ini, sel stem tumbuhan yang boleh diperolehi dan dimasukkan ke dalam produk penjagaan kulit untuk meningkatkan panjang umur sel-sel kulit. Bukan sahaja ia melindungi sel stem kulit sendiri tetapi telah dibuktikan mempunyai sifat-sifat baik umur melengahkan dan anti-kedut, dan kini merupakan salah satu bahan yang paling perintis dan menarik dalam penjagaan kulit.

SAINS DI SEBALIK Sel stem dan Umur Panjang
Umur panjang yang berkaitan dengan sel-sel tertentu yang dipanggil sel stem yang mempunyai ciri-ciri pertumbuhan yang unik. Sel-sel ini boleh membuat salinan yang serupa diri mereka sendiri serta membezakan (dalam erti kata lain, perpecahan) untuk menjadi berasingan, sel-sel khusus. Dua jenis asas sel stem hadir di dalam tubuh manusia:
Sel stem embrionik yang dijumpai dalam blastocysts (struktur yang ditemui di peringkat pra-embrio manusia) boleh berkembang dan membezakan menjadi salah satu daripada lebih daripada 220 jenis sel yang berlainan yang membentuk tubuh manusia;
Sel stem dewasa yang terletak di beberapa tisu dewasa hanya dapat membezakan kepada jenis sel sendiri atau berkaitan. Sel-sel ini bertindak sebagai sistem pembaikan untuk badan tetapi juga mengekalkan perolehan normal organ regeneratif seperti darah, kulit atau tisu usus.
Penyelidikan pada Sel Stem dan Aplikasi
Pada masa ini dalam bidang perubatan, sel stem dewasa telah digunakan terutamanya dalam perubatan pemindahan untuk merawat leukemia dan terbakar teruk. Dalam bidang kosmetik, para saintis menumpukan penyelidikan mereka pada sel-sel stem dewasa yang terletak di dalam kulit. Mereka mengkaji potensi jenis ini sel-sel, fungsi dan penuaan. Kajian ini membantu kita memahami bagaimana untuk melindungi sel stem kulit.

                                             Sel Stem Manusia kian berkurangan dengan ketara bermula pada usia 30 tahun
Kulit Mula kedut apabila tidak ada pembahruan kulit yang mencukupi sebab sel stem dah berkurangan

SWISS APPLE STEM CELLS

WHAT ARE SWISS APPLE STEM CELLS?

According to the Bible, Adam bit into an apple (coaxed on by us femme fatales) and deprived Earth of Heaven...was he attracted by the delicious taste or did he already know of the amazing youth-boosting properties of this fruit?
PhytoCellTec Malus Domestica is an award-winning patented liposomal preparation, so containing tiny bubbles made out of the same material as cell membranes, based on the stem cells of a rare Swiss apple called Uttwiler Spätlauber that derives from a seedling planted in the middle of the18th century. Uttwiler Spätlauber is an endangered apple variety that is well-known for its ability to be stored for long periods without shrivelling and thus its longevity potential. The apples are rich in phytonutrients, proteins and long-living cells. A novel technology has now been developed enabling the cultivation of rare and endangered species like Uttwiler Spätlauber. Thanks to this technology, plant stem cells can be obtained and incorporated into skin care products to enhance the longevity of skin cells. Not only does it protect the skin’s own stem cells but has been shown to have excellent age-delaying and anti-wrinkle properties, and is currently one of the most pioneering and exciting ingredients in skin care.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND STEM CELLS

Stem Cells and Longevity            
Longevity is related to specific cells called stem cells which have a unique growth characteristic. These cells can make identical copies of themselves as well as differentiate (in other words, split) to become separate, specialised cells. Two basic types of stem cells are present in the human body:
Embryonic stem cells found in blastocysts (structures found in the human pre-embryonic stage) can grow and differentiate into one of the more than 220 different cell types which make up the human body;
Adult stem cells located in some adult tissues can only differentiate into their own or related cell types. These cells act as a repair system for the body but also maintain the normal turnover of regenerative organs such as blood, skin or intestinal tissues.
Research on Stem Cells and Applications
Currently in medicine, adult stem cells are already used particularly in transplant medicine to treat leukemia and severe burns. In the cosmetic field, scientists are focusing their research on adult stem cells located in the skin. They are studying the potential of this type of cells, their functioning and aging. This research is helping us understand how to protect skin stem cells.
Stem Cells in the Human Skin
In the human skin, two types of adult stem cells have been identified:
  • Epithelial skin stem cells which are located in the basal layer of the epidermis.
  • Hair bulge stem cells located in the hair follicle.
Epidermal or skin stem cells replenish and maintain the balance of cells within the skin tissue and regenerate tissue damages during injury. But with age, the number of skin stem cells decreases and their ability to repair the skin becomes less efficient.
Plant Stem Cells to Protect Skin Stem Cells
In contrast to human, plant cells are totipotent, meaning that every cell has the ability to regenerate new organs (leaves, flower, seed…) or even the whole plant. Besides, all plant cells can differentiate and become a stem cell. All stem cells, independently of their origin (plant, animal or human) contain specific epigenetic factors whose function is to maintain the self-renewal capacity of stem cells. 

WHAT DO SWISS APPLE STEM CELLS DO?

ANTI-WRINKLE EFFECT ON CROWS FEET

The anti-wrinkle effect of Malus Domestica was evaluated in a study with 20 volunteers aged from 37 to 64. An emulsion containing 2 % of PhytoCellTec™ Malus Domestica was applied twice daily for 28 days to the crow’s feet. Wrinkle depth was determined by means of PRIMOS (phase-shifting rapid in vivo measurement of skin). Results showed a significant and visible decrease in wrinkle depth for 100 % of the subjects.
