health articles 563 [14051]How to Slash Your Healthcare Costs By following the groundbreaking strategy outlined in this article you could slash your healthcare costs and feel really alive whatever your age. So lets start by looking at the amazing healing power each and every one of us has at our disposal - yet few of us have any idea how to harness. Your Cells Awesome Intelligence You are conceived as a single cell containing a DNA molecule - your genetic code. That single cell then divides and each of the cells formed contain a replica of your DNA molecule. These cells then subdivide and the process continues. While that process is itself amazing what is even more remarkable is that for a very short time, just a few days, there exists as part of a newly formed embryo a group of extraordinary cells known as embryonic stem cells. They can grow into whatever sort of tissue the body needs. That is to say, they can transform into any type of cell. For example, in response to chemical signals, some stem cells transform into skin cells, some to liver cells and so on. This way not only do the cells know what their role is - they know exactly how to function perfectly in that role without any form of external interference. Further, when a cell is replaced by subdivision all the information about its role and how to function is passed to the next generation so that the particular body part in question can continue its function And theres more. There is also what are known as adult stem cells that are found in small numbers in most adult tissue. They are not as versatile as embryonic stem cells because, in the main, their function is to repair and maintain the tissue in which they are found, although recent research suggests they may have more potential to transform into a wider range of cells than was first thought. But were not finished yet! Not only does each cell know its role and exactly how to function in that role, it knows how to work in coop
