What if the stem cell treatment you’re paying thousands of dollars for doesn’t actually contain the viable, functional stem cells you think it does?
In this episode of The Ben Azadi Show, Ben sits down with Dr. Rafael Gonzalez, who has spent more than 20 years manufacturing cell therapies, holds patents in the field, and has been involved in FDA clinical trials.
Dr. Gonzalez shares a surprising estimate based on the cell samples he has tested: only about 5% may contain viable, functional stem cells.
He explains why sourcing the cells is only the beginning. The processing, freezing, thawing, storage, and administration of stem cells can dramatically affect their viability. He also breaks down what can happen when cells die and why proper handling matters when these therapies are administered to patients.
The conversation explores what consumers may actually be receiving when they purchase stem cell treatments, the importance of cell viability, and why the science and manufacturing process behind these therapies deserves far more attention.
Dr. Gonzalez also explains how his team approaches cell preservation and clinical testing, including why even their own clinical studies typically achieve around 88–89% viability.
This episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at the science of cell therapy and raises an important question: Do you really know what’s inside the stem cell treatment you’re paying for?
