Sounds like a scam, I’ve never heard of stem cell treatment for schizophrenia.

They call you, they charge you, and you’re a test subject for possible pseudoscience.

Doesn’t sound good dude

I think it’s still very early days re stem cell therapy being used to help with schizophrenia, or any other mental health problem .

It’s all fraud. There is no evidence that stem cell therapy would help schizophrenia.

They are trying to scam you. It is pretty disconcerting how they got your number in the first place.

if it was america… I’d tell you to do it, but because it’s india, I’d say you better first research the company and find out their history. If they’re legit, do it… might just be the cure you’ve always been asking for :smiley: but usually in this kind of experimental/unknown things, it’s usually the company that pays you to let them experiment their research on you, not you paying them. so that’s a red sign. But still, check it out, and tell us about the result.
If it’s unknown in other countries it’s probably because of the contravasy behind stem cells coming from unborn babies, but india’s too poor to care about that, so that’s probably why you hearing about it there instead of europe/america

I would not do this.

There have not been human trials.

You do not know what you are getting.

It’s almost certainly a ripoff and quite possibly dangerous.

There are issues with stem cells - if they come from yourself, they still have the same issues your own cells have. If they come from someone else, there are rejection issues. If it were a real therapy with cells from someone else, you would have to take anti-rejection pills which would reduce your immune response. These are issues that are being worked on, but these are not things that are available now.

Unfortunately I think this is a scam and we all just have to wait for medical science to advance. There will be big headlines and articles in major scientific journals when and if a proven therapy of this kind really works.

If you have $$ to spend though, a tiny fraction of $5,000 would cover an annual subscription to Brain HQ brain training (used by many researchers on cognitive training in SZ) and lots of sarcosine, NAC, and/or Avmacol/Suforaphane or a jar and some broccoli seeds.

There are lots of supplements, but I don’t know what you’ve tried and I mention those as ones that have some reasonable evidence in published papers.

Or just save your $ til MIN-101 or something like it gets approved.

Thanks all … I will not do that…!!

Instead I will try some supplement …

My supplement lists are as fallows…

Amino acids …
Herbs …
Ayurveds…
Tibetan herbs.
Some mushrooms
Etc

Later
Chinese herbs
Japanes herbs
Etc

I know pdoc don’t Do this alternate medicine
I am well aware of possible drug interaction and side effects …

I will see nutritionist and dietician to helps me with this supplement thing…

Of course I need approval from my pdoc to use this supplement .

Lastbut notleast

I will never quit my antipsychotics…

This supplement thing will go handinhand with antipsychotic and if any sideeffect or interaction happens I will quit…

What do u think @twinklestars @Moonbeam @Ninjastar @anon22322466 @shutterbug @Mr.Dre

I use all of my supplements under the medical supervision of a doctor. If they say to stop using them, I stop using them.
