A third patient has reportedly achieved HIV remission following a stem cell transplant using umbilical cord blood to treat leukemia. The hosts predict this medical breakthrough will be used to market a new line of mRNA-based HIV vaccines.

### Henrietta Lacks, Genetic Resistance, Faith Healers

- **Episode:** [1426: Pre-Bunk](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1426-pre-bunk.md)
- **Published:** 2022-02-17

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1426-pre-bunk/chapter/henrietta-lacks-genetic-resistance-faith-healers.md

The discussion touches on individuals with natural genetic resistance to HIV and the historical case of Henrietta Lacks, whose "HeLa" cells were used for decades in medical research without her family's consent. This leads to a brief tangent on faith healers and the potential for physical "healers" to transfer beneficial exosomes through touch.

### Alcohol Consumption and DNA Damage Study

- **Episode:** [997: Competitive Victimhood](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/997-competitive-victimhood.md)
- **Published:** 2018-01-07
- **Time:** 2:05:30–2:07:48
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/997-competitive-victimhood/chapter/alcohol-consumption-and-dna-damage-study.md

A study from Cambridge, funded by Cancer Research UK, found that alcohol breaks down into acetaldehyde, a toxin that can permanently damage the DNA of stem cells. This damage increases the risk of developing seven types of cancer, including breast and bowel cancer. The research used mice to demonstrate how the body's natural repair enzymes can be overwhelmed by binge drinking.

A Dutch entrepreneur who founded a stem cell bank claims that technology already exists to regenerate organs like livers and fingers within days. The hosts suggest this advanced technology is kept from the public to protect the pharmaceutical industry's profits and is primarily used by global elites to extend their lifespans.

### Scientific Consensus, Stem Cell Research, and Climate Change

- **Episode:** [83: One Too Many Clips](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/83-one-too-many-clips.md)
- **Published:** 2009-03-25

During a press conference, President Obama stated that scientific consensus should not be the sole factor in determining policy, specifically in the context of stem cell research. The hosts suggest this admission could be used to challenge the administration's stance on climate change. They argue that if consensus is not enough for one scientific issue, it should not be the definitive authority for others.
