Ozzy Osbourne has been plagued with a number of health problems in the last several years, including a Parkinson's Disease diagnosis. On his radio show, the rock icon opened up about receiving stem cell therapy to help regulate the disease.
“I’ve just come back from the doctor after having some stem cells put in me,” he told his co-host Billy Morrison.
“The thing is, you have it, and you go, ‘I don’t feel that great,'” Ozzy explained about the treatment, “but I don’t know what it would be like if I didn’t have it.”
“This stuff that I have, it’s kind of like a super f***ing stem cell, you know? They put three bottles in me this morning," he added. "I had one about three months ago and this was a follow-up, and I’ve got to go in about six months from now.”
Ozzy began received his first stem cell treatment in 2020. In 2022, he detailed the horrors of living with Parkinson's Disease. “You think you’re lifting your feet, but your foot doesn’t move,” he said of the toll it's taken on him physically. “I feel like I’m walking around in lead boots.”
Sorry I was unclear ...it was more your definition of bad as in "evil" or "poor quality" I was trying to ascertain... Ozzy has of course been accused of both...
There is brand out there, that has like "acupuncture stickers" to put on a specific place on your body. They activate stem cells in an natural way. Have seen pictures of people looking like 20 years younger after a few months of use. It is called Lifewave patches.
A relative (she is a health therapist) swears by it (in general, not for PD specificly)
"The X39 patches from Lifewave, which look like small, circular Band-Aids, stimulate the body’s own stem cells. In turn, they elevate a peptide called GHK-Cu, which has been linked to many biological functions: blood flow, nerve outgrowth, collagen production, tissue repair, DNA repair and anti-inflammation, to name a few. However, the peptide decreases by as much as 60 percent as we age. The patches use the body’s heat to activate phototherapy, which stimulates the stem cells."
We have been using these with pretty good results for about 2 months. If you are in your 60's, it takes about 6 months to see results. I use them for pain and they work great. If you have pain, these work for me. For my family member with PD, they are helping with the dyskinesia and pain. You have to stay well hydrated, use electrolytes and avoid caffeine.
Stem cells for Parkinson's are like planting a rose in the desert. Without a properly functioning and supportive ecosystem, they might provide some temporary improvement—maybe. It's just fluff for rich PwP.

I had that problem for years. No pain so it took years to define the problem. The problem was I wasn't lifting my left foot's toes when walking or running. I realized there was a problem when I fell during the Leadville 100-mile race. Actually I fell a dozen times during the first 50 miles. Ultimately I found an article on Peroneal Nerve Entrapment. The nerve was being pinched between the tibial bone and tibial muscle. The muscle swelled but there was no pain. I'd been researching the peroneal nerve for acupuncture class. And stumbled into an article on PNE. Then found a mention in a book on running injuries. I took the abstract to a doctor who referred me to a surgeon, yahda, yahda, yahda. The surgeon found the Peroneal Nerve was 90% dead. Resecting the muscle took pressure off the nerve and it repaired itself eventually.
For a long time I wondered whether I'd had this problem before developing PD. Or did PD cause the nerve malfunction?
