Blog/Transcription:
0:03 Hello friends. Welcome to this week’s episode of Hormones, Metabolism, and You. I’m your host, Dr. Cassie Smith.
0:09 I’m a boardcertified endocrinologist who has a special interest in gut health. And so now I practice functional
0:15 medicine. I am so happy you’re here today. I have a phenomenal guest. Have
0:21 you ever met someone where when you meet them, they just like light up a room and you’re like, “Wow, this is a really cool
0:26 person.” and you don’t really know how you want to be acquainted with them or how you want to work with them or how
0:31 you want to incorporate them in your life, but you know like this is a cool person I want to be in my life. Well,
0:37 this is my guest today. So, his name is Ryan Riley and I was fortunate enough to meet him about two months ago at a
0:43 conference that I went to in Arizona. I went to a consumer health summit conference and Ryan was there and of
0:50 course everyone was saying just such nice things about him but I had the privilege of of talking with him and he
0:55 just helped me in so many ways when I was at the conference and when I left he
1:01 texted me and was just like hey you’re on my mind he was so sweet I was going through a few things with modern
1:06 endocrine from a business perspective a growth perspective and it was just kind of tough and he was you know cheerleading me on like this is you have
1:13 to do this this is what happens like just such a positive light. Well, the whole time he’s like helping me with
1:18 things like this, he just fails to mention that he’s a wonderful businessman and has grown and sold lots
1:24 of big companies and he also currently is the CEO of a company I’m very
1:30 interested in called Stimrien. And so when I’ve put all this together, because he wouldn’t tell me this on his own, you
1:37 know, um I was like, Ryan, I want to talk to you about Stem Regen. Like I feel like my listeners would love this.
1:43 So, Stem Regen, so that you guys know, is a company that he is the CEO of and
1:49 it was founded by this guy who is very passionate about stem cells and he has
1:54 found a way to capsulize certain substances that cause our body to
2:00 release stem cells on our own. So, it increases our body’s own ability to release stem cells from our bone marrow.
2:06 And so, he has traveled, Ryan’s going to tell you, he traveled the world. He did research for a really long time and he
2:12 figured out three components that you could capsule. You could put in a capsule and people could take and it
2:17 increases the amount of stem cells your body releases astronomically. And I don’t want to mess up the statistics because Ryan tells you all of them, but
2:23 it’s like something like 33 times or something that you can increase stem cell production in your own blood. Now,
2:29 this is phenomenal because stem cells are the way that we fix ourselves. It’s the way that we fix inflammation. It’s the way that we heal. It’s the way that
2:35 we prevent aging. And so I’m like, I need to know how to tell my patients about this and and tell my people about
2:41 this. So Ryan agreed to come onto the podcast and talk about this. So we’re going to talk about Stem Regen. He is a
2:47 wealth of knowledge. Make sure that you listen till the end. He’s going to give our listeners a very special offer with
2:53 an affiliate code, a discount code for our people. So it’s Dr. Cassie. So
2:58 listen to the end. But just so you know, Ryan Riley is a veteran internet technologist. He’s an inventor and an
3:05 entrepreneur with three patents in modular network architecture. He
3:11 launched his career during the early days of the web turning whiteboard ideas into production ready software. Notably
3:17 among his innovations is one of the first real-time residential VIP
3:23 billing platforms highlighting his ability to create scalable solutions from complex
3:28 challenges. He’s known for his technical expertise and leadership and he’s constantly delivering systems that drive
3:35 growth in a fastmoving tech environment. His work combines deep technical skills
3:40 with a passion for problem solving, making him a trusted inventor in the tech industry. Ryan has also has a
3:47 proven track record for scaling businesses, having played a key role in leading a startup to nearly 50 million
3:53 in revenue over four years, accumulating a successful exit in 2022 for up to $200
3:59 million. He has a unique blend of expertise in technology, leadership, and
4:04 company growth, which is what I really love about Ryan. He’s helped me a ton with Modern Ender already, and he’s a
4:10 valuable asset to any venture. So, I am so excited to introduce you guys to Ryan
4:16 Riley and let him explain to you more about Stem Regen. This week, I have Ryan
4:21 Riley on hormones, metabolism, and you. I’m excited to introduce you guys to him. I met him a couple of months ago at
4:28 a conference, a CHS, CHS conference, and he has just been a light in my life for
4:34 the last couple months, helping modern endocrine figure a few things out. but he interestingly enough is the CEO of a
4:41 company called Stem Region. And so I wanted to bring him on to introduce this company to you guys and teach you guys
4:47 about Stem Region. And he just has some fascinating things to tell us about their product and stem cells. So thanks
4:53 for joining me. Oh, Dr. Cassidy, thank you so much for having me. This is truly a pleasure. And
4:59 talk about being a light. you you just I was I I was drawn to you at that at that
5:05 event and I you just radiate goodness and I’m just so grateful to be here with you. So, thank you.
5:11 A well, thanks. So, that’s great.
5:16 I was thinking the same about you. Like I figure I was there just kind of like overwhelmed like oh my gosh there’s all these people. What’s going on? I’m in
5:23 such a And interestingly and I’ll tell you guys this quickly. I was in a pretty bad place when I went to this
5:29 conference. modern endocrine was kind of making some changes. We’ve had some staff turn over, some different things that’s happened, but it was all for a
5:35 good reason. And so I was just very like, “Oh my god, here we go again.” Like I told Ryan this, like, “I feel
5:41 like my whole team’s turning over again. This happens every year.” And he made me feel so much better about it and told
5:47 me, you know, Cassie, that means you’re growing. This is a good thing. And he really made me sat down with my husband and put like on a piece of paper like we
5:54 drew this little like where we are, what we need, who we need. and he was like, “You just have to start manifesting it.”
5:59 And we literally did. And within like two weeks, we got like three amazing people and our team was just kind of
6:05 like back to where it was. So, it was pretty well even that like you got people back. That was the beauty of this is change
6:12 occurred and then you got people back, which is, you know, there’s there’s such a metaphor for life in that is you you
6:19 can’t be afraid to take that step forward. And that’s even in our health journeys. You can’t be afraid to take
6:24 that step forward. You’re not alone. In this world, there are people like Dr. Cassie. There’s people like that are out
6:31 there that are truly just trying to make people better, trying to help people through this process because we know how
6:37 bad it is. And you’re not alone. And that’s the that’s the beauty of like of events that we go to like this because
6:44 we can connect at at a at a different level away from the office and then all of a sudden you’re like, “Oh my
6:49 goodness, there there is good in the world. There is opportunity in the world. You’re I’m not alone. Let’s go
6:54 and let’s run this together.” So, I don’t know. I just love to serve. I love to be able to be a part of even your
7:00 story just for a little bit. So, thank you so much for allowing me to have that privilege.
7:05 Yeah. Well, thanks so much for everything you do, too. So, let’s talk about STEM region. So, I want to know
7:13 what is it and I guess tell me tell me what it is like tell everyone what it is kind of how it started. Let’s start with
7:19 that. Okay. So it’s interestingly enough um
7:25 three years has it been three years two years three about three years ago at that same exact event that you and I met
7:32 um I met a I I was just coming off of a very successful opportunity that I was a
7:38 part of and I was and I was actually at that at at CHS to be able to talk about that and and and share the experience I
7:45 had of growing a company in the consumer health space to an exit and just really kind of the impact that that had on my
7:53 life and the lives of those around me. And Christian Drao was a gentleman that was there and and he had 10 minutes on
8:01 stage and I tell you like I’ve never been in a room I I’ve had this happen one other time where I knew immediately
8:08 that he was the guy that I had to connect with that I was going to work with at a level that was so beyond what
8:14 I understood at that time. And I had an opportunity to sit with him. We talked
8:20 at lunch. I stalked him for a few days afterwards. I found his phone number. I
8:25 invited him out to my house in in little Meridian, Idaho. And we And the funny
8:31 thing about it is I love to cook. Um I have my own farm. So 90% 95% of the
8:36 protein that we eat um as a family comes from my farm, which is freaking I love
8:41 it. And I actually cooked him pork and they were so nice. They don’t eat pork as a like and I cooked them pork and
8:48 they’re like we don’t even ate it but we ate it and I was like you guys are you should have told me you like they totally ate it because we were having
8:54 such a good time they didn’t want to offend me and I was like you’re such beautiful people and and you know you
8:59 talk about we talked about that like you don’t want to do this alone. Christian has been on a journey um literally since
9:07 the mid 90s when he was first introduced to an ingredient called AFA. um he’s a
9:13 he’s a neurologist, neuroscientist um as as as a background and he was
9:19 brought in to study and identify the the the mechanism of actions and ingredient
9:24 that they were getting out of this blue green algae that they were getting out of Clamoth Lake. um and he was a big
9:30 part of leading that team to do um substanti claim substantiation with
9:37 the FDA to be able to identify what this product is doing and how it’s doing it and show mechanism actions and being
9:43 able to show the outcomes of it that it had. And as he was going through this product, he started to see outcomes that
9:49 were unexplained. And anytime that you see anytime you’re in a in in in a research environment
9:55 like that and you see outliers, you kind of just set them aside and and you’re like, “Okay, I’m going to focus if you
10:02 look at it on a bell core. I’m going to focus on what’s what’s really happening across more people.” But when all of a
10:08 sudden you start seeing outliers that are 20, 30, 40, 100 people all talking
10:14 about things that they can’t explain, you’ve got to step back as a scientist. This is what he did. he stepped back and he said, “Okay, what’s really
10:21 happening?” And in 2001, this is after being on the project for a number of years, in 2001, he read an article, and
10:28 it was really the first article that that that put him onto this idea that talked about how a stem cell in the body
10:36 could become a heart cell. And he sat back and he’s like, “Well, wait a second. How is that possible?” Because
10:42 at that time, stem cells were precursors to to to blood cells. That’s all that’s all they were. That’s all they talked
10:48 about it. And he was like, “Wait a second.” And and he started going into the research and into the the medical
10:55 libraries. And he found another article that showed how um stem cells can become
11:01 a brain cell or stem cells can become a liver cell. and he’s sitting here and he
11:07 steps back and he’s like, “Oh my goodness. What if stem cells are the heart of the
11:15 repair system? What if our body’s natural ability to
11:21 heal is all surrounded on stem cells and stem cell mobilization in your body?”
11:27 And that started him on a journey that has been absolutely incredible. So over the last 25 years, he has dedicated his
11:35 life to be able to understand the concept of endogenous stem cell mobilization. Endogenous means your own
11:43 body’s release and mobilization of stem cells. And his journey is incredible. I
11:49 he and and hearing him talk is is one of those experiences that is just phenomenal. And he talks about how well
11:57 wait a second if this product AFA coming out of Clamoth Lake has the ability to
12:02 mobilize stem cells. And they bought a a flow spectrometer which is a million-doll machine that they would do
12:09 a blood draw. They would check count the number of stem cells in circulation.
12:14 Then they would take this ingredient and two an hour later and two hours later they draw blood again and they would see
12:21 an increase of stem cells in the blood. So they were able to substantiate a
12:26 number of an increase of stem cells in the blood. So then they started going out and they were like, well, what else?
12:34 He started to make that choice as far as like what other products are out there,
12:41 what other ingredients, what other plants are in the world that allow that
12:47 have an effect on the body at this stage. And and the beauty of it is he found um this
12:55 berry, this goji berry in the Tibetan plains. Um he talked to he was talking
13:03 to a Chinese medicine person and his question that he asked was, “If you were
13:09 stranded on a deserted island, what one plant would you have with you? What would be the one plant that would heal
13:16 everything?” He’s like, then they’re like, “Well, there’s nothing that would heal everything.” He’s like, “I know, but what would you take?” And they would like the goji berry. And he started
13:23 doing research on the goji berry. And the the story is incredible. But he he
13:28 identified that the the stem the the AFA
13:34 has an effect of putting two to four million stem cells in circulation. And this is just a gram. One gram of AFA can
13:41 put two to four million stem cells in circulation in your body within and and that re that lasts for about 3 to four
13:49 hours. So this goji berry that’s a very specific um uh variety of this goji
13:56 berry they found that it had an increase of 33%. So that’s four to six million
14:02 stem cells more stem cells in circulation. And then the the best one ever is he was visiting Madagascar and
14:11 somebody and at the end of his trip somebody said here you need to take you need to look at this and it was this
14:16 black car thing and he was like this is weird. So he he put it in his bag. He came home and he didn’t think about it.
14:23 Um a couple months later he was thinking through things and he’s like oh wait I let me and he pulls this out and he runs
14:29 the same test. You you you do a blood draw. You count your stem cells. You take the ingredient an hour later, two
14:35 hours later, you do the same thing. He he found that that aloe maclata, which
14:42 is a very specific variety of aloe that’s only grown in Madagascar,
14:48 has the ability to increase stem cells from 7 to 8 million more stem cells in circulation in your body. So he was able
14:56 to over the course of 25 years create a formula that allows you to have with two
15:03 capsules of stem regen an increase of of a minimum up to a minimum 10 million
15:10 stem cells in circulation. And that’s a very conservative number. Um, and so to put that in to put that in context, um,
15:18 as a 52year-old, um, active semi-act like active male, I
15:24 I have about 5 to 7 million stem cells in circulation on a regular basis. That’s how many stem cells are going
15:30 throughout my body. Two capsules of that, I double the number of stem cells. So the question is, why is that really,
15:38 really important? Okay. Well, it all comes down to how we age and it all
15:45 comes down to how our body repairs. Um, the interesting thing about it is when
15:50 we are when we are young, our our body is primarily full of stem
15:57 cells. As we grow and develop and change, our body is constantly repairing
16:03 and rebuilding and restructuring. You know, there’s research that says, you’ve probably heard this is we have a heart
16:09 every a new heart in every 30 years, right? Well, if you think about it, that
16:15 heart, so think about the timeline from 0 to 30, our heart is is is now to the
16:21 point where it’s going to start re rebuilding itself and re and it’ll take 30 years to rebuild. We get a liver
16:27 every seven years, our skin every two years, right? So, our body’s in this constant form of repair and stem cells
16:34 are at the heart of that. A stem cell is the only cell in the body that can
16:39 become another cell. Its only job is to become something else to multiply and
16:46 become that nerve cell or the cardiac cardiac cell or a muscle cell or a
16:52 pancreatic cell or a liver cell. So that’s all it does. But the crazy thing
16:57 about this is that by the time we’re 30, we’ve used 90%
17:03 of the stem cells that our body has available to us. And so what happens when you’re 30? Oh, I just don’t I don’t
17:10 I don’t recover as fast as I used to. Like I work out and I’m like sore for two days. I remember being 18 and I
17:17 would go skateboarding and I’d fall and get up and I’d shake it off and rub some dirt on it and I’d go keep going because
17:24 that’s like our bodies are we’re young. I remember falling when I was like 16
17:29 and falling when I’m 50. That fall feels a lot further away when you fall when you’re 50, right? Because our bodies
17:36 just don’t repair the way they used to. But that is a natural correlation between the number of stem cells in circulation. By the time we’re 30, we
17:43 have less stem cells in circulation in our body. The interesting thing in that as we look at this from a longevity
17:48 standpoint, this is in the research and there’s a ton of articles out there that talk about this. Anytime that somebody
17:56 has an age related disease, let’s let’s let’s just qualify that a little bit. um
18:03 heart failure, liver failure, um Parkinson’s,
18:08 anytime you have some sort of age- related disease, that individual
18:14 has 50% less stem cells in circulation than somebody that is healthy of the same age.
18:21 So if we can increase the number of stem cells in circulation, your body has that natural ability to repair. And that’s
18:27 truly what stem regen does. It’s all about increasing stem cells in the number of stem cells
18:34 in circulation in your bodies, supporting the communication, the cellto cell communication and um supporting
18:41 your capillaries, your micro capillaries, so that stem cells can be able to be released, be signaled to
18:47 where they need to go and mobilize to where they are where they’re needed. And that’s what we do is all we do is
18:54 support stem endogenous stem cell mobilization. your body’s natural ability to heal and repair.
19:02 So that’s so fascinating. I have so many questions. So you know, you were just saying how your heart regenerates every
19:08 30 years. And so at Modern Endocrine, we do a lot of stuff with gut health because I truly feel like your gut is
19:14 the core of of making you healthy. If you don’t have a healthy gut, you’re not going to have healthy hormones and you’re not going to have, you know, a
19:20 good mood because of your dopamine. And so we kind of we focus on gut. Your gut regenerates itself every 30 days, Ryan.
19:28 Like completely, 100%. So that’s why I tell people when they come to us, it doesn’t matter how bad you are and what
19:33 shape you’re in, you know. And I see this too. We have a gut health program and I will see people on day one and
19:39 they’re miserable and they have every gut symptom in the world and they hurt and they’re, you know, they’re crying and then I’ll see them in 30 days and
19:45 they’re like sometimes different people. So you can literally regenerate your gut
19:51 in 30 days. But I’m thinking in a lot of these people it takes three and six months depending on how bad their gut
19:57 is, how infected it is, different things like that. So these would be like probably life-changing for our gut
20:03 protocol because it would turn those cells over faster and like help them heal.
20:08 Yeah. And and it’s interesting because so I was part I was a um I was the founding CEO of a company called
20:14 Cellcore Biosciences which um is a very serious gut health company and that’s all we did was gut health and and and
20:21 detox and we talked a lot about mitochondria and supporting the mitochondria. Well, you know what
20:27 supports mitochondria better than anything else? New cells, right? If you can if you can bring in new cells to to
20:35 an area that is affected, that’s damaged that and and rebuild that area, the mitochondria in that area will be will
20:42 increase so much more. You’ll have much more energy, much more health, and and that rebuild that repair process is
20:48 going to be phenomenal. And you’re absolutely right. It it the the the
20:53 stories that we have have been just phenomenal of individuals that have been taking this um dealing with traumatic
21:02 brain injury for 10 years, not being able to not being able to go see their their kids play basketball because he
21:09 has to he has to wear earplugs and and noise cancelling headphones and he can only be in the auditorium for 15 minutes
21:16 or else it overloads him with with too much stimula stimulation and he has to go and reset and then come back in. He’s
21:22 never seen a full game, four weeks, six weeks on our product. Um, he sat through
21:28 seven hours of basketball with his kids. You know, it’s your body’s ability to repair. It’s it’s there. Your body wants
21:35 to repair. It knows how to repair. All we have to do is support it in a way that will allow it to repair. And and
21:41 that’s the beauty of what stem does is we’re not gonna I like I’m not going to
21:47 sit here and tell you it will it will heal your gut,
21:53 but like the support that you do to like the work that you do to support the gut health and then if you add stem regen
21:59 into there, you’re just creating an environment for your body to repair faster. And that’s the beauty of it.
22:04 Your body will do the repair. We just support its ability to do so. Yeah. And I think that’s what we’re good
22:10 at at Modern Endocrine. That’s kind of what we teach people is like when you’re sick, it’s an environment issue. When
22:15 you have cancer, when you like whatever it is, I tell everyone if you’re sick, if your body’s not working how it’s
22:21 supposed to, if you have cancer, I don’t care what disease you have. Most of them are rooted in inflammation and they’re an environmental issue. Some of it can
22:28 be genetically predisposed, but it is your environment. You have a toxic environment. You’re not sleeping enough. You’re eating the wrong things. You’re
22:34 talking badly to yourself. You’re stressed. like whatever it is, you know, we’re putting things into our body we shouldn’t be. But the fact that you what
22:42 you said you said something that kind of stuck with me. So you said that when you’re 30, you have 50% less stem cells
22:49 in circulation. No, 90% of your stem cells available are gone at the age of 30. And that’s interesting because I do
22:56 some stuff with stem cells as well. We do some stuff with exoomes, different things at our clinic. And what we tell
23:01 people is that, you know, if you want stem cells, a lot of times when you’re 40, 50, 60, you don’t want your own stem
23:07 cells. You would rather have placental stem cells. But the reason you don’t want your own stem cells, I’m thinking,
23:12 is because you just don’t have enough of them. Like I I was trying to just kind of think about the reason I tell people
23:18 this, and it’s because when you’re 50, 60, 70, you don’t have a lot of stem cells. So like using your own is not
23:24 always the best option. Now, you know, there’s a guy, um, Dr. I don’t know if
23:30 you know Dr. Nathan Newman, but he takes stem cells and extracts them from your fat, and you have a lot more stem cells
23:36 in your fat than you do in other places. And so, that’s a whole another conversation. But, in my mind, I’m
23:42 thinking, you know, I’ve told people that are older, using your own stem cells aren’t always the best thing because you don’t have a lot of them.
23:48 But, if this product helps your body produce and make more stem cells as you
23:53 age, then it makes sense that it’s going to work really well. And then that’s going to help a lot of people who can’t
23:59 either financially get stem cells or go to places where they can get stem cells because that’s a whole another issue in
24:04 this country with not being allowed to get, you know, placental based stem cells, mezzenymal stem cells, things
24:10 like that. So you’re just you have a product that actually helps your body push more stem cells out of your bone
24:16 marrow in in Yeah. And and throughout everywhere there’s there’s stem cells that come from from everywhere. What it
24:22 does, it actually stem cells are triggered when when there’s an injury in the body, when there’s an area of stress
24:29 or injury, there’s a signal that’s produced and that signal says, “I need
24:34 help.” And the only thing in your body that can help are stem cells. Okay?
24:40 That’s the that’s literally the only that’s the natural ability to repair. And so if your stem cells can’t react
24:47 well enough to that signal um and and be able to migrate to the area where injury
24:54 is because you don’t have enough in circulation, that repair process will take longer. You’ll still repair, but
25:02 it’ll take longer. Right? Here’s a perfect example. A good friend of mine, in fact, it was my brother, my son’s
25:08 mother-in-law, she’s in her mid-50s. um she had a full shoulder
25:16 reconstruction surgery and you know how like just intense that is and the recovery of that is just takes time
25:25 especially when you’re older and they’re very concerned about PT making sure you do everything right. Um she was set up
25:32 for 12week physical therapy. We I gave her steeren and I was like I just want
25:38 to see this was early on when I started working with the company. I was like I just want to see how this works. Let’s let’s let’s see what happens. And I had
25:45 her load up. She was overdosing. Um really kind of pushing it and and you know in the naturopath we’re like, “Hey,
25:51 if your body can do two, it can do six.” You know, and we were really pushing it with her. She went on her fourth week
25:58 and the doctor is like, “What is going on?” She had full rotation, full mobility. She was off of PT in four
26:06 weeks because she was able to increase the number of stem cells and circulation. And there is story after
26:11 story after story of individuals that that have gone through similar situations where all we’re doing is
26:19 increasing creating the environment so your body can repair the way it knows how to repair.
26:26 Yeah. So that’s So I’m sitting here thinking like my patients are the Hashimoto’s patients, the gut health
26:32 patients, the insulin resistant people, people have hormone issues, POTS, mold,
26:38 you know, just these chronic, not all of them, but a lot of them are them. And then I have the people who just
26:44 longevity like, hey, I want to be optimized and I want to live the longest lifespan and health span that I can
26:50 live, you know, comfortably. And so all of these people I’m thinking about that you’re talking about like this is going
26:56 to be a perfect just starting place for them because we really focus on like mitochondrial health and then you know
27:03 gut health and hormones and so just again going back to the mitochondria like what I had for people prior was you
27:10 know phosphatilylcoline right like high doses of phosphatilylcoline phosphotil serarene things like that to support
27:15 your your mitochondrial membrane maybe ss31 things like that but this is even
27:20 like better because this is giving you actually your own stem cells. So I think
27:25 in all of our patients this would benefit these people. So think about think about what you said
27:31 um those patients that are insulin resistant. Why are they insulin resistant? Go to
27:37 root cause. I mean this is this is truly what you do. So why are they insulin resistant? Well, so it’s a combination of things,
27:44 but it’s their environment. They have a toxic environment. It’s their gut. It’s their sleep. It’s their stress. um their
27:51 cells are breaking down, right? So, it’s a combination of things, but it’s inflammatory based. So, it’s
27:56 inflammation, but also Okay, so take it deep. Go deeper. What creates insulin in the
28:02 body? Your pancreas. Okay. So, if your pancreas isn’t creating enough insulin for you in your
28:07 body, then it has problems. And the problems are everything that you just
28:13 talked about. What if what if rather than just cleaning out the like cleaning
28:18 the room, we go in and really repair the the the
28:23 really repair the the pancreas. And it’s and that’s and and people will tell you,
28:29 well, the pancreas can’t be repaired. Well, yeah, it can because your stem cells, your own personal stem cells have
28:34 your genetic code to be able to go and repair every part of your body. Here’s a perfect example. I’m going to give you
28:40 two different case studies that would like these are preliminary studies we’re doing two different preliminary studies
28:46 and we went hard like we were like what doesn’t repair from the medical from the
28:51 medical environment when you go to med school what do they tell you does not repair and the two things that are the
28:59 most are brain and heart the brain doesn’t repair and the heart doesn’t repair so we said okay so let’s tackle
29:05 these for the last nine months we have been doing um preliminary studies on
29:12 chronic congestive heart failure. So these are these are people that are two years stable meaning for two years the
29:20 doctors are like there’s nothing more we can do. This is where you’re at. It’s quality of life from here. So two years
29:27 stable chronic congestive heart failure. We put them on two capsules of stem regen three times a day and we’ve
29:34 checked them. In six months, every person that has gone through the
29:39 study after six months of being on two capsules three times a day, every single
29:44 person has normal heart functionality. And I can send you we’ve got it
29:51 published. It’s in it’s in the literature. I can send you the white paper. I can send you the published paper. It’s there. We are almost to
29:58 ready to publish Parkinson’s. So again, so here, think about this. In
30:04 our heart study, we did two two capsules three times a day. In Parkinson’s, we
30:09 did the same protocol. Two capsules three times a day. Okay. Tell me what
30:16 product on the market using the same exact protocol can can support two
30:21 different like chronic diseases in the body that that
30:27 nobody says you can’t cure. Parkinson’s. My dad passed away from Parkinson, the effect of Parkinson’s. So, this one’s
30:33 hits really close to home. So, here, listen to this one. Two capsules three times a day. After 6 months with
30:40 Parkinson’s patients, we’ve had a 63% decrease in your Parkinson’s index and a
30:46 68% increase in quality of life. Yeah, that’s that’s pretty phenomenal.
30:53 And it makes sense though, like you said, if you’re going to repair the actual problem with the organ and
30:58 helping your body heal itself, then it’s going to get better. And so, obviously,
31:04 pharmaceutical companies don’t want you to know this, and a lot of the world doesn’t want you to know this, but it makes sense. Like, you’re fixing the
31:10 environment. You’re fixing the actual tissue, the actual organ that is damaged. And I’ve actually had a couple
31:16 people with with heart disease that we’ve been able to, you know, normalize their EF. And I’ve had cardiologist I
31:23 had one cardiologist say to me, you know, I don’t know what sort of witchcraft medicine you’re practicing, but I guess you got lucky and it worked.
31:29 I’m like, no, I didn’t get lucky. You get lucky. No, we’re just actually fixing the environment and allowing the
31:35 person to heal themselves, right? No. And and here’s why this is here’s why this is so important for for the
31:41 work that you do, Dr. Cassie is because you still need to clean the environment,
31:46 right? You still have like here’s a perfect if I I have a field in in in on our property and it is full of weeds.
31:53 I’m not just going to go out there and plant freaking pumpkins. I’ve got to I’ve got to I’ve got to plow. I’ve got
31:59 to clean. I’ve got to like I’ve got to clean that field. I got to remove all the rocks. I’ve got to get I’ve got to
32:05 prepare that field so that I can be able to to to really have a good harvest and
32:11 plant and have a good harvest. Right? That’s exactly what you’re doing. So the
32:16 step that you’re making right now to clean and to detox and to support the gut and to clean all of that out is
32:24 exactly the work that you’re doing. Now, if you turn around and add the ability for increasing endogenous stem cell
32:31 mobilization into the patients that you’re working with, the the the results
32:36 are just going to be phenomenal. You’re already creating an environment for this to happen. And that’s the beauty of what
32:42 you’re doing. Yeah. This is this is amazing. So, you’re saying it has algae in it. Where
32:49 did you say the algae is from? From Clamoth Lake in uh in Washington.
32:54 Washington. Okay. So, it’s got some algae, goji berries, which my dad has always said goji berries are good for
33:00 you. And I’m like, are they? Are you just making that up? And he’s like, go. So, here’s a story of goji berries. You want to hear like what took
33:06 Christian to? So, um Alexander the Great, this goes way back. Alexander the
33:12 Great when he was coming through Asia and conquering a and and and conquering Asia, there was a huge battle and it was
33:19 so intense that literally and he was moving so fast that there were about uh 200 horses that were injured during this
33:27 battle and he’s like we can’t do anything with them. We don’t have time. We’re going to move on but leave them here. um after his campaign about two
33:35 months later he came back through that area and all of these horses were were
33:41 healed. All of these horses not only that but they’re they’re I don’t if you know much about horses when they’re
33:47 coats and are are like shiny and bright that’s a sign of healthy a healthy
33:54 animal. All of these horses were shiny and bright. Their coats were incredible.
33:59 They were healthy and strong. they were feeding in a in a field of goji berries.
34:06 And so Christian heard read the story and he’s like, I’m gonna go test goji berries. And it had a tremendous effect
34:12 on stem cells and and and stem cell mobilization in your body. That’s awesome. And then the other thing
34:18 is another type of alo or algae, right? It’s an aloe from Madagascar. And and
34:24 the beauty about this is um in order to be able to even harvest this, we had to
34:29 create a relationship with the Madagascan government. We had to do we did a scientific research on the plant.
34:37 We we we’ve actually have planted and and we’re in the we we we have the whole
34:43 process to be create a renewable plant source of this Alamaca. We did the
34:48 environmental impact of doing so. We’re the only company that has the rights to
34:53 be able to export this one ingredient from Madagascar. And it’s absolutely incredible the the effect that it has on
35:00 indogenous stem cell mobilization in your body. Yeah. And I truly believe in this. Like
35:05 I think that you know if you go to these areas where people live forever you know these amazing parts of the world where
35:11 people live on the land and aren’t stuck to their phones and have these amazing health spans like they’ll tell you. You
35:18 know I’m very into like either veta medicine and like if you ask people who have you know just kind of lived off the
35:24 land and done this for thousands of years they’ll tell you what helps your body heal. And I think that’s what medicine has lost and it makes me so sad
35:31 for my profession. Like if you talk to most doctors about nutrition, I take care of a lot of doctors now and when
35:38 they first come to see me and I want to talk to them for 30 minutes about nutrition, they’re like, “What the hell are you talking about, Cassie?” And I’m
35:43 like, “This is important.” Like this is the one of the most important things is
35:48 how you fuel your body in addition to what you say to yourself and how you sleep, right? But like it’s just it’s so
35:55 lost in traditional medicine and it’s your body is made to heal itself. You said that and I tell my patients this
36:01 all the time. Our body is made to heal itself. You know, God made us just perfect. Whatever you believe in, you’re
36:06 made perfectly to fix and heal yourself. You just have to allow that environment inside of you. And so, I think it’s
36:13 really cool that you guys found these things that, you know, people have known for hundreds, thousands of years to heal
36:19 you and you put them all in one capsule and made it really easy for people. So, I and I actually have been taking my
36:26 stem regen. I totally forgot you guys gave us a bottle of it until I heard your podcast with McCall and I was like,
36:32 “Wait a minute. I think I have a bottle of that.” And I sure did. And so I was like, I got to start taking this. Um, idiot. But so I’m taking my stem region
36:39 and I’m going to get some more. I It’s probably been like, I don’t know, a couple weeks. I’m in generally pretty
36:45 good health. Um, so I haven’t noticed anything crazy yet, but I’m super
36:50 excited to use it on my patients because I’m a huge like data person. So, if there’s anything in particular you guys
36:56 want modern endocrine to help you with from data, I mean, we could look at insulin resistance, we could look at gut health, we could look at all those
37:02 things, but Hashimoto’s, TPO antibodies, things like that. I mean, we would love to help you with that because I love
37:08 stuff like this. And what I really love is when it’s like natural plant-based things, pretty non-invasive, right? It’s
37:14 not injectable because some people are they don’t love that. Um, so I just think that the work you guys are doing
37:20 is amazing. But I do have to ask you one more question. And I know people are going to have this question. I had this
37:25 question for you. So we have to talk about cancer and using this. So can you
37:30 use this if somebody has active cancer or certain types of cancer? Like cuz to
37:35 me that’s where people unfortunately you know they come this is where I get a lot of my patients but for life right like
37:40 they’ve gotten to the point where they have a toxic environment and they’ve created cancer. That is what cancer is. It’s not I don’t think it’s anyone’s
37:47 fault per se. I don’t think it is just literally a conglomeration of really bad environmental things that are happening
37:53 in your body. And so in my mind, in order to fight and cure cancer, you just have to change that environment. You
37:59 need to get rid of the toxic cancer obviously and then you have to start changing those things that allow that
38:05 environment to mutate the cells. So in my mind, this would work very well for
38:10 cancer. You brought up a good point. Other than a bone type cancer, right? So if your bone marrow is producing cancer
38:16 cells, we don’t want to give it anything to make that quicker. But if you have any other type of cancer, what have you
38:22 guys done any research on whether this is beneficial or not? We haven’t done we haven’t done research. We have a lot of anecdotal um
38:30 uh examples of of cancer and and use
38:36 cancer. I think the best thing to do um in talking with cancer because that’s like that’s the big C word, right?
38:41 everybody. That’s the one that scares everybody. Um, rightly so, too. Um, the best thing to do is is understand stem
38:48 regen stacks very very well with everything that’s trying to help support
38:54 your body. So, if you’re doing if you’re doing red light therapy, stem stacks. If
39:00 you’re doing hyperbaric chamber, stem stacks. If you’re doing if you’re working out, stem stacks. So, whatever
39:06 you’re doing from a natural standpoint, for those of you that are are healthy and strong and doing things, stem
39:11 supports that perfectly. At the same time, when you’re working with people
39:16 that are insulin resistance, when you’re working with individuals to for gut health, stemoren stacks with the
39:22 treatments that are designed for those, they’re not going to replace
39:27 anything that you’re currently doing because you still need to, like you said, you’ve got to clean things out so
39:32 you can rebuild. And stem regen is in that supporting process of your body’s ability to repair. So let’s go to the
39:40 extreme. Um stem regen with cheot treatment. Absolutely. Because what’s going to happen is you’re you’re through
39:46 chemo treatment, you’re really just shocking your body to just get rid of all those se cells that are just having
39:53 those cancer cells in in your system. Well, stem could come in behind that and just wholly rebuild and and and support
39:59 your body’s ability to repair. um if you have surgery uh and and and you have a
40:05 tumor removed, stem can help repair like we’ve seen we’ve seen stem even help
40:11 clean up scars because of scar tissues and things like that. So like yes, steeren will stack and support
40:17 everything that you’re currently doing to be able to support your body’s ability to repair. My my my only thing
40:25 is don’t don’t not do everything else that needs to be done, right? Don’t like
40:30 and just what I’m saying with the patients you’re currently working on, don’t not fix their gut, right? Don’t
40:36 not it’s not a replacement for the other things that you do to be able to support
40:41 that. It it it stacks very very well and it supports your body’s ability to
40:47 repair as you continue to do the things necessary to clean up. Yeah. There’s never a magic pill, right,
40:53 Ryan? Like I tell my patients this all the time. there was a magic pill, potion, drink, shot, water, whatever,
41:00 nobody would have disease. Okay? And so that’s what I think the problem people get is like, “Oh, I’m just going to take
41:05 this one thing.” No, it’s you have to do the work. Like, you have to put in the work. I have a quote that is on my
41:11 refrigerator at my office and it’s on a sticky note in my um bathroom and I read
41:17 it every single day and the quote is, “Health is not owned. It’s rented.” and the rents due every single day because
41:24 whenever I get really busy, what I used to do was like, oh, I’ll just put my health back here. And what I learned is
41:30 that I’m not a very good provider and I don’t pour into people very well unless I put my health first, right? And so I
41:37 tell myself that every single day and it’s true. And that’s what we try to do at Modern Endocrine. We try to help you
41:42 get to a healthy place. But my goal for my patients is to learn how to stay there, how to keep their health at the
41:48 forefront so that they don’t need to see me. So, it’s a terrible business model, I’ve been told. But I don’t look at
41:53 health care as a business. I look at it as, you know, truly helping people. And so, my goal for my patients is to come
42:00 at whatever stage they’re at, get really, really well, and maybe have to come once a year and get some blood work
42:05 done and be like, I’m doing great. I mean, that’s like your health. That’s what you do. Like, you create a healthy
42:11 environment so then your body can thrive and you can do what you’re meant to do on this earth. But, it’s rented. It’s
42:18 never owned. And it would be amazing. It would be amazing if we could put hospitals out of business. If we could put doctors out of
42:25 business. I mean, literally, think about it. If we could look, there’s a there’s a acute care in Western medicine is
42:33 absolutely important. the acute side of things. It’s the health wellness support
42:40 like that that needs that really has an opportunity for us to remove a lot of
42:46 the things that people are challenged with and and and if we could put the medical profession out of business from
42:53 that standpoint, not necessarily because I’m going to break my arm. I broke my shoulder a couple years ago skateboarding, right? I’m going to break
42:58 my arm again doing something. I know it that that acute care is important. Um I
43:04 there was a a few months ago I was really pushing myself and I got to the point where I was just super dehydrated. I went in got IV therapy, got treatment
43:10 and felt really really good. That acute care is absolutely incredibly important. We need it. But at the same time we also
43:17 need to support our health. Yeah. Chronic disease management is like it needs to go away. Chronic disease
43:24 management needs to be taught in the kitchen and you know in the gym and
43:29 things like that, not in doctor’s offices. So, I completely agree. So, we
43:35 are going to link in the show notes and a code for you guys. So, Stem Regen is
43:40 going to make a code, Dr. Cassie, so you guys can try this and get it for a discounted price. We’re actually going
43:46 to start carrying it in our clinic as well. So, I’m super excited and privileged that Ryan has allowed us to
43:53 do that, has allowed Modern Endocrine to help him, you know, spread the word about this amazing product that they
43:59 have. I’m super excited to look at all your studies and like I said, if we can help in any way do some of those, we
44:05 would be happy to do that. So, thank you for everything that you do and for your
44:10 time in doing this interview. I have three questions that we have to end with, Ryan. They’re just quick. It’s
44:16 like the first thing that comes to your brain. I do this with everyone and people love this. So, here are your
44:22 three questions. Okay. The first one is, what is one food that’s most beneficial and why?
44:28 Oh, okay. Okay. So, the first thing that came to my mind honestly was cheese. First thing that came to my mind,
44:33 cheese. I cuz and and and to be honest, I’m such a foodie. Like for me, food is life and
44:40 love and and everything. Like food for me, yes, food is fuel. And I totally
44:45 agree with that. And I know there’s a lot of people that are like, I’m going to eat in a way that is going to be provide health. And I’m like, no, I’m
44:52 going to eat in a way that provides community, love, and support. And honestly, you can’t do that without
44:57 cheese. Oh, Ryan, I haven’t had cheese. I know. I’m so sorry. You’re gonna be like, “Why did you even say this?”
45:04 I thought you were gonna say goji berries. Nobody has ever said goji berries because No, like food is love. And here’s the
45:11 thing. I also just I asked Christian, he would say goji berries. No, I Yeah, I I I just came back from
45:18 Florence. Um, and so I’m on this huge like I I don’t know. I cheeses like you
45:24 can do so much amazing and honestly and you know the funny thing about it the second thing I thought of was balsamic vinegar.
45:30 Oh I love that. I’m I’m down with that. I just I just I literally I just bought
45:35 like a $200 bottle of balsamic vinegar and I like sleep with it. It is incredible. Have you ever had b Have you
45:43 ever had balsamic vinegar on ice cream? On vanilla ice cream?
45:48 Well I don’t eat ice cream. I don’t eat dairy at all. But I know. eat. See, that’s why I was like, cheese. You’re like, you’re Okay, we
45:54 need to go on to the next question. Well, but no, but I am but I do love balsamic vinegar and I do have a a
46:00 special place in my heart for pretty places and farms. So, I’m hoping that Rob and I get invited to come eat dinner
46:05 at your house sometime. Absolutely. You just tell me the constraints and if you you know, let me know that you don’t eat pork ahead of
46:12 time because I’ve had that problem. Oh, I eat pork. I eat pork. Just don’t put cheese all over
46:18 everything, okay? And it’s not that I don’t love it’s not that I don’t love cheese. It’s just that cheese hasn’t
46:23 loved me. And to be honest with you, you know, I stopped eating cheese when I was really sick and I’ve gotten so much
46:29 better. My husband gives me crap all the time. He’s like, you know, Cassie, you should just try to eat it again. You would probably be fine. But I just
46:35 Well, here’s here’s the thing, and this goes to the point that we’ve made already. Our body should be able to
46:42 handle cheese. Our body should be able to handle milk. Our body should be able
46:48 to handle gluten if it’s made responsibly, right?
46:53 Oh, absolutely. Totally agree with you. And everything we do is and I’m even going beyond organic. I know the source
47:00 of almost everything that we put into our body, right? And that’s and that’s important. But our body, like if you can
47:06 get to the point where your body is clean, where you’ve cleaned up the environment, you’ve rebuilt it, your
47:12 body should be like you should be able to handle it. So maybe we need to do an experiment and I need to come to your
47:18 house where everything is sourced and you know where it comes from and maybe I should try cheese at your house and we’ll see how it goes.
47:24 Well, but you’ve also heard you’ve heard where people go to Italy and they’re gluten intolerant. They go to Italy, they eat pasta and they’re like it
47:30 doesn’t affect me. I know. I was so I was so sad. I’m actually supposed to be in Portugal today right now. My husband and I were
47:37 going to go to Europe for the first time ever and we were supposed to be in Portugal today and I was going to maybe dabble in some cheese and some like try
47:44 some different things, but maybe another time. So, okay. Well, we we’ll go together. Okay,
47:49 second question. Sorry. Second question. What is one thing that anyone can do to improve their health
47:54 that’s completely free? Oh, this is a really good one because this is something that um that I’ve been
48:00 actually I’ve been I’ve been working on. um absolutely free and and
48:07 honestly you just got to move and be flexible. Move and be flexible. Movement
48:12 is one of the biggest things that people and here’s here’s a perfect example. I went on a I went on a cruise, a river
48:20 cruise with Mississippi. My mom my dad evidently my dad always wanted to go on a Mississippi river cruise and I just
48:26 got back with one. My mom wanted to take our family. Um, that woman’s 85 years old and she was moving and she was
48:33 walking. She’s not taking any pharmaceutical medication and she was moving. the ability to move and walk and
48:40 be flexible and like that’s that’s the easiest thing that you can do is get up
48:45 and move and be active and stretch and and really take time to and and whe like
48:54 yoga like all of those modality all of the things like yoga and pilates and all those things are just really designed to
48:59 get you to move. So just move. And I told you your mom is my spirit
49:04 animal. At 85 I want to be doing all the things, moving on the beach, having a
49:10 good time with no medications. People, he said his mother takes zero pharmaceutical medications. So I love
49:15 that. The last question is, what is one thing you wish you would have known about your health 30 years ago that you
49:21 would have done differently? Oh, well that’s so there’s a big there’s a so I got into the consumer health space in
49:28 this natural space um in 2008 1718 when
49:34 I was introduced to Dr. Jay Davidson and Dr. Todd Watts um and they needed help
49:39 running uh running Cellcore and that opened my eyes. I grew up, you have to
49:45 remember, I grew up, my parents were both school teachers in in California. So, we did all the medical things
49:51 because insurance was there. And so, we did, we did it all. And it wasn’t really until I was able and my background is in
49:59 computer technologies. I’m a I’m a I’m a geek. I’m a programmer. Um, I did I’ve built every business application you
50:05 could possibly dream of multiple times. Um and and so being able to take all of that experience I had with building
50:12 business applications into a single company with working with Dr. Jay and Dr. Todd was phenomenal for me and it
50:18 opened my eyes to just amazing outcomes that come from health. And so honestly I
50:24 would say everything I know now from then. So today my daily routine is I do
50:31 I wake up I do my morning my morning um study and prayer and I I get into my
50:38 infrared sauna with red light therapy and I go 20 minutes in meditation with sound therapy all together at once. I
50:45 cold plunge. I get on my power plate. I dead hang. I’m in the hot tub. like my morning is is is to the extent where
50:52 like it is designed to give me what I need throughout the day and throughout health and and all of that has come in
50:59 the last you know what seven eight years because of the experience that I had with my my tremendous dear friends Dr.
51:07 Jayd Davidson and Dr. Todd Watts. So, you’ve come to the good side of medicine. I have. Seriously,
51:13 I have. I’ve drunk the Kool-Aid completely. Not Kool-Aid. I I drank the goji berry juice.
51:19 Good. Okay. Well, thank you so much for your time, Ryan. I’m I’m so happy that
51:24 we got to meet and connect. I’m happy to help share this information to our listeners, and I’m excited about any
51:29 sort of collaboration that we can do to help you guys as well. So, thank you so much.
51:35 Yeah, thank you. Thank you very much. It was a pleasure. So, that episode was packed full of interesting things. I
51:41 love bringing stuff like this to my listeners. Like, obviously, what we just talked about can help everyone, you
51:47 know, and I think that just being on the cutting edge of things like this in medicine is so powerful and giving
51:53 people tools to help them heal themselves in their environments. So, I really liked the conversation that we
51:58 got into at the end about how our body is an environment and we start to get disease processes or we get cancer, we
52:04 get any sort of, you know, thing that’s happening in our body that makes us ill. A lot of times it’s an environmental
52:10 process. And so, this this compound that they have, Stem Regen, does all these
52:15 amazing things from goji berries and algae. Is that not fascinating that we increase the circulation of stem cells
52:21 within 3 to four hours by, you know, 6 million, 8 million, 10 million cells? And so, I just loved how he broke this
52:27 down for us. And I think again, this product is fascinating, amazing, and I’m super excited that Modern Endocrine is
52:33 going to be doing some studies with them to help give them some more data so that we can continue to bring things like
52:38 this to people who who need this. And so, I appreciate you listening to our episode. I appreciate you sharing this
52:44 with anyone you think it may benefit. So, anyone you know with chronic disease or aging diseases like Ryan mentioned,
52:51 heart disease, you know, Parkinson’s, neurologic disease, brain disease, but all my Hashimoto’s people, my thyroid
52:57 people, my hormone people, my insulin resistant people, I think this is going to be really beneficial for you. So,
