Dr. Joel Aronowitz — News Max Health: Suzanne Somers — How Stem Cells Can Help Women Everywhere.
Kathleen Summer: “When Suzanne Summers was stricken with breast cancer and had a lumpectomy more than a decade ago, she refused to have breast reconstruction surgery, believing that medical research would at some point lead to a better way to restore her body. That day came this summer when the Hollywood star and medical activist underwent a cutting-edge treatment called stem cell breast reconstruction. Here is the final segment of Newsmax Health’s exclusive interview with Suzanne in which she explains how the stem cell option can be available to all women.”
So, if the average American woman wants to have stem cell breast reconstruction, what can she do? What are the options in this country right now and does health insurance cover it?”
Suzanne Somers: “Right now they can get in on my clinical trial at Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital so they could either call Hollywood Presbyterian or they could call Dr. Joel Aronowitz and if they get in on this clinical trial before they close it, they can get it done for free. When this clinical trial is closed, because of the fact that it will have been a success, then hopefully then it will be standard of care and then insurance will pay for it. So, I see it as a win-win.”
Kathleen Summer: “Suzanne, for many years scientists have said that stem cells hold the promise to cure many diseases and save lives, even correct defects that we are born with such as the type of congenital heart defect that took the life of your Three’s Company co-star John Ritter. Do you think that stem cell science is finally living up to its promise?”
Suzanne Somers: “Stem cell science will live up to its promise if allowed to progress and I know that the doctors in this country are itching to be able to use it and everyone is afraid because they don’t want the authorities to come down on them. So that’s why to me my procedure is so important. I have a louder voice; I am able to get out in the media and in the internet and talk about this and when the masses want something they can make enough noise to get it to happen and I think that’s what’s going to happen. When I tell women about this, their jaws drop and they can’t believe this is available. This is beyond breast cancer; this is if you just want bigger breasts, you could also do this protocol and it probably will have a negative effect on implants in the future but implants have a lot of inherent problems with them with leaking and moving and infections and things like this. Putting my stem cells in my breast, I cannot reject me and that is why I’ve had no trouble with this at all. It’s just liked my stem cells went oh we’re up here now, okay great. So it’s quite a remarkable thing and I hope that stem cell protocols become the way of medicine and I really believe, I was speaking with a futurist Ray Kurzweil and he said in the next 13 to 15 years that stem cell protocols and nanotechnology will be the way it’s done and the present paradigm of medicine will change completely. The catch is you have to get there healthy; you can’t limp into it and so all these steps that people are taking today for their health, the way they eat, the way they sleep, the way they manage their stress, the way they avoid chemicals and eat organic food and avoid pharmaceuticals unless absolutely necessary, you do those things and you most likely will be able to access the great advancements that are coming in the next 13 to 15 years.”
Kathleen Summer: “You’ve written more than 20 books on health issues but you seem to be so emotional and passionate about stem cell breast reconstruction even more than other medical topics that you talk about, why is that?”
Suzanne Somers: “Well I went after this and because I’m a very confident woman so it was okay to have a lopsided figure even though at times in my life and maybe hopefully even today, I was considered sexy and a sex symbol and all that. I think women can stay sexy and keep their edge forever indefinitely, it’s a state of mind but one out of eight women is getting breast cancer and they’re about to readjust that. Cancer is the biggest killer in the world. The devastating diagnosis is one thing and then the double whammy of losing a body part can do a person in and this to me I am passionate about because it can be so helpful on a psychological level and if your emotions are positive, you can heal better but when you look down and you see nothing there and you don’t feel like a woman it has a devastating psychological effect on you and I think that this will be very helpful. I am very passionate about this. I’m equally as passionate about this as I am about bioidentical hormones which I believe I brought to the forefront and also about alternative options for cancer. I just think that we each need to rethink the way we’re taking care of our bodies.”
Suzanne your story is an incredible one. You are truly an inspiration to so many women. If folks want to learn more about your experience with stem cell breast reconstruction and if they want to learn also about your new talk show, Suzanne Summers Breaking Through, where can they go?”
Suzanne Somers: “Go to suzansummers.com and it’s called Suzanne Summers Breaking Through and I think this entire procedure is shown in episode one and I think you’ll find it not only informative but extremely emotional and I’m very proud of that show.”
Kathleen Summer: “Suzanne Somers, thanks so much.”
Suzanne Somers: “Thank you.”
