In this episode of the Biohacker's Podcast, Teemu Arina, curator of the Hololife Summit, interviews Christian Drapeau, stem cell researcher and CEO of STEMREGEN.They dive into the emerging science of adult stem cells as a self-repair mechanism in the body, comparing it to the immune system. Christian explains that when injury or damage occurs, adult stem cells are released from the bone marrow, travel through the bloodstream, and contribute to tissue regeneration throughout the body.The conversation covers the synergy between stem cell activity and mitochondrial health, particularly focusing on NAD+ and energy metabolism. Christian highlights the difference between natural, daily enhancement of stem cell release through plant-based supplements versus one-time injections—which carry risks such as contamination or genetic instability. The episode also details STEMREGEN’s proprietary blends and ingredients designed to support stem cell release, circulation, and function. Christian discusses clinical results, dietary synergies (like seaweed, omega‑3s, and polyphenols), and a daily protocol aimed at optimizing repair, reducing inflammation, and promoting longevity from within.Christian and Teemu explore how lifestyle factors, nutrition, and targeted supplementation can naturally enhance stem cell release, migration, and function - without risky or expensive stem cell injections. Christian shares details on STEMREGEN’s formulations, including plant-based ingredients like fucoidan, aloe macroclada, and green tea polyphenols, and outlines a practical daily protocol for activating the body's self-renewing systems.Learn more about STEMREGEN at https://stemregen.co and follow Christian on Instagram: @stemcellchristian!This conversation was recorded in July 2025.Check https://hololifesummit.com for upcoming events & tickets!Devices, supplements, guides, books & quality online courses for supporting your health & performance: https://hololifecenter.comKey moments and takeaways:0:00 – Introduction by Teemu Arina 1:28 – Stem cells as a repair system 3:15 – History leading to stem cell science and modern applications 4:23 – Understanding adult stem cells vs. embryonic ones 5:52 – Clinical trials in chronic heart failure and Parkinson’s 7:01 – Age-related stem cell decline and its implications 9:01 – Natural reduction in stem cells and the need for support 10:13 – Daily cell turnover and role of stem cells in renewal 11:37 – How Christian boosted his own stem cell count 12:41 – Factors that reduce or support stem cell production 13:51 – Longevity benefits tied to functional repair, not anti-aging 15:06 – Aging reduces stem cell mobility and repair function 16:12 – Animal studies showing migration and tissue repair 17:31 – Food vs. pharmaceuticals in stem cell support 21:38 – STEMREGEN ingredients and supplement introduction 23:15 – How stem cells are attracted via receptor interaction 24:24 – Mechanism: stem cells homing in on injury sites 25:28 – How STEMREGEN activates targeted repair pathways 26:52 – Nutrients that boost stem cell circulation naturally 27:55 – Improving microcirculation to enhance stem cell activity 29:35 – Product safety, colostrum, and NSF certification 30:44 – Clinical study publication and product validation 32:18 – Attracting stem cells to problem areas effectively 33:23 – Signaling and directing stem cells in the body 34:41 – At what age should stem cell support begin? 35:49 – Athletes and stem cell usage under physical stress 37:14 – Aging and insufficient stem cells to offset degeneration 38:43 – Cardiovascular use case and stacking strategy...
