At the start of this year, Mel Gibson was interviewed by Joe Rogan about his experiences with stem cell treatment provided by Dr Neil Riordan for mainly his father, but also himself.
Gibson’s father, aged 92, had multiple age-related diseases for which he was attending the Mayo Clinic. The Mayo Clinic said there was little they could do for Gibson Snr. Mel Gibson then asked about the possibility of using adult stem cells to treat his father. The Mayo Clinic were not supportive of this idea but did agree to discuss the case with Dr Neil Riordan, who offers adult mesenchymal stem cell treatments in Panama (www.cellmedicine.com). Once discussed with Riordan, the physicians at the Mayo Clinic agreed that Gibson Snr may benefit from adult stem cell therapy.
Gibson Snr received intravenous doses of umbilical cord tissue mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and reported a ‘new lease of life’ which included a general reduction in inflammation, improved cognition, eyesight and an overall feeling of ‘regeneration and healing’.
