For MSAA forum members - please exercise some caution here and note that this post and video have been posted by someone who has only been a forum member for less than a day and it has been posted with no explanations or context at all. It looks a lot like a rather oblique marketing/ sales pitch post.

The organisation is real and the study was carried out and results published - about a year and a half ago. However, please be aware that the Hadassah hospital where the trial was conducted also looks to taking overseas paying patients for "treatments" which are not yet fully proven. I know this because a friend of mine who also has MS was being groomed/ solicited to fork out a lot of money to pay to go overseas to this hospital and pay for the treatment.

Note that there have also been mesenchymal stem cell trials/studies conducted in the USA, and while I can't be bothered comparing all the micro details, I suspect that they were probably very similar studies.

Grooming? 😱 Yikes, run! I looked into this in the US and Bahamas, and there was zero pressure or nagging calls. What you describe is shameful. It's not like the procedure is risk free! 🤬

I saw the result of a stem cell patient in Texas that literally started walking again vision improved. Everything seem to be on the up and up I would hate to think grooming was going on in the US but giving out false hope to people that are sincerely sick is sick!

I rather doubt that your question will answered - bit of a "post and run" effort, I reckon.......
