Crohn’s Disease

How Can Stem Cells Treat Crohn’s Disease?

Anyone suffering from Crohn’s disease knows the physical and emotional challenges of coping with this disease. Symptoms such as fatigue, pain, and cramps can be severe. But constant digestive distress can make it difficult to even leave the house. Although patients may experience months without symptoms, they can flare up again—suddenly and without warning.

Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that causes chronic inflammation of the GI tract and can affect the entire body. It can cause kidney stones and anemia—as well as interfere with absorption of essential nutrients. Medications and biologics may be effective but may cause side effects and lose effectiveness over time. For some patients, gastrointestinal surgery—which can be a complex procedure—may be a last resort.

Scientific Research Supports

The application of stem cell therapies in treating Crohn’s disease, thanks to their regenerative properties, anti-inflammatory effects, immune system modulating capacity, pain relief capabilities, and potential to halt Crohn’s disease progression.

I have a clear mind and energy—my energy level is good. And I'm just hoping my immune system and my digestion can continue to improve.

Signature Cells

Proprietary Protocols. Based on Advanced Science.

The most effective cell therapy starts with the best possible cells. BioXcellerator Signature Cells are produced from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from Wharton’s jelly umbilical cord tissue.

Then, based on our proprietary protocols, these cells are cultured and expanded in our on-site lab—and tested to make sure they meet high standards for purity and potency and demonstrate:

  • High levels of anti-inflammatory properties
  • The best potential to modulate the immune system
  • More potential to stimulate healing

Discover how Signature Cells and our advanced treatment protocols can ease pain, reduce inflammation, and relieve symptoms of Crohn’s disease for many patients—even those who have been suffering for many years.

Real People. Real Results.

Meet patients who now enjoy better health, more energy, and less pain and who get more out of life thanks to advanced cell therapy for Crohn’s disease and other gastrointestinal disorders.

Treated for Ulcerative Colitis

They treat your physical condition and your spiritual condition. It’s an all-encompassing, full treatment, not just stem cells. It’s the quality of the stem cells that are available here; it’s the personalized service that you get here that I couldn’t get in the United States. This office would be considered grossly overstaffed in the United States. They have the right amount of people here to take care of your concerns. The level of expertise has really blown me away.

BioXcellerator Patient

Treated for Crohn’s Disease

I’ve had chronic Crohn’s Disease since I was nine. And I’ve tried every medication possible. I’ve read that stem cells can help and searched for how to get the best cells. BioXcellerator came up everywhere. And I’ve had some friends come here who’ve had amazing results. I’ll be back because I’ve got issues with my ankles and back and I want to get my life back—go after my goals and dreams. People here are very friendly and knowledgeable. Any question you have, they’ve got an answer, and they’re very caring.

Kevin Feng

BioXcellerator patient

Treated for Crohn’s Disease

This is a stressful disorder and there’s no cure for it. My entire body was inflamed. You also can’t eat. So I was literally eating boiled, blended cauliflower and carrots almost two months in a row. After treatment, I felt effects starting actually just two weeks in. I noticed my inflammation just going down. Within three or four months I was almost close to back to normal. I put on about probably close to 25 or 30 pounds, mostly just muscle weight. It’s fantastic.
