Stem-Cell Treatment Cures Diabetes

In a recent experiment, fifteen people diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes were given transfusions of their own stem cells. The result? Except for two of the patients, the volunteers no longer needed daily insulin injections.

This is big news. Stem cells are the potential "miracle cure" that scientists have been searching for for years. Many currently incurable diseases could be cured, and millions of lives saved. Unfortunately, many people are still very much opposed to using stem cells. I hope that this breakthrough will show those same people that the advantages far, far outweigh any negative concerns.
