One celebrity to recently come clean about their use of these experimental treatments is British actor and comedian John Cleese. In an, the 84-year-old revealed that for the past two decades, he's been spending around £17,000 — the equivalent of about $21,000 — a year on a private stem cell therapy to stave off aging.
The private clinics that provide these treatments, they warn, operate in "regulatory gray zones" in countries like the US and Switzerland — where Cleese gets his treatment — preying on the public's lack of understanding on the science behind the technology. Of course, there's a reason that stem cells have their reputation as a miracle of science. Not only are they remarkably good at renewing themselves, the so-called "pluripotent" ones are capable of developing into virtually any kind of cell in the human body. They're basically jacks of all trades, and it's these properties make them ideal for regenerating damaged or even lost tissue..
