Destination: Barbados:
The Institute for Regenerative Medicine
The Treatment: Anti-ageing stem-cell injections made from aborted foetal tissue, £15,000 The past 12 months have seen this popular holiday resort become the stem-cell capital of the developed world, treating hundreds of patients in a year.
ROFL!!!
This Daily Mail story is a hoax. It first appeared on the Drudge Retort.
The Institute for Regenerative Medicine in Barbados sponsored a study of stem cell treatment for advanced-stage heart failure.
In the study, ten patients with advanced-stage heart failure underwent open chest surgery during which human foetal-derived stem cells were injected into their hearts.
The "treatment" was actually performed in Ecuador, not Barbados.
I'll leave it to you to check out the other references cited in this bogus article.
