In this groundbreaking episode of Pushing the Limits, we sit down with Christian Drapeau, MSc - stem cell scientist, author of Cracking the Stem Cell Code, and founder & Chief Science Officer of the regenerative health company Stemregen.
Christian shares his 25-plus years of pioneering research into stem cells and regenerative biology, beginning with his revolutionary idea that stem cells are the body's innate repair system, not just a medical oddity studied in labs.
What We Discuss in This Episode
The History of Stem Cell Science:
How Christian's early neurophysiology work led him to explore blue-green algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae) and its surprising effects on immune health.
Early hypotheses and lab studies that showed certain natural compounds actually increase circulating stem cells, kick-starting the idea of Endogenous Stem Cell Mobilization (ESCM).
The Quest for Natural Stem Cell Mobilisers:
Christian's global travels to find powerful plant medicines used in traditional cultures, from Madagascar's Aloe macroclada to sea buckthorn from the Tibetan plateau, and how these botanicals can increase stem cell circulation by as much as 80%.
Stemregen Science & Products:
We unpack Christian's work validating that increasing your own stem cells in circulation can support tissue repair, healthy aging, and whole-body regeneration, hitting at the heart of why so many chronic conditions persist.
What the Stemregen Protocol includes:
STEMREGEN Release — designed to support your body's natural release and migration of stem cells.
Stemregen Mobilise — supports stem cell delivery by improving microcirculation and capillary health.
Stemregen Signal — enhances cellular communication so stem cells can navigate to where they're needed most.
Incredible Cases & Stories:
Christian highlights compelling real-world cases showing how enhancing stem cell circulation supports recovery, improved vitality, and quality of life, not by treating symptoms, but by strengthening the body's own repair system.
Stem Cell Therapies: Pros & Cons
We also dive into conventional stem cell therapies (umbilical, adult stem cells, exosomes), contrasting them with the natural approach Christian advocates, including safety, effectiveness, and longevity implications.
Why We Age: A New Perspective
Christian previews his upcoming book on aging - reframing aging as a balance between repair vs. regeneration speed, and what practical lifestyle and botanical strategies can help tip the scales towards regeneration.

Christian's Bio:
Christian Drapeau is a scientist, author, medicinal plant expert, and pioneer in the field of stem cell research. He holds a graduate degree in Neurophysiology and has been involved in medical research for 30+ years, with the last 20 specifically dedicated to stem cells. He pioneered the understanding that stem cells constitute the body's natural healing and repair system, and has traveled the world in search of the most powerful plants that support stem cell function and enhance the body's regenerative potential. Having lectured in 50+ countries and written 5 books - including the best-selling Cracking the Stem Cell Code - as well as dozens of published scientific papers on brain research and Endogenous Stem Cell Mobilization, Drapeau is known by scientists, physicians, and biohackers alike as an expert and pioneer of his field. A scientific advisor to many companies, he is currently the Founder and Chief Science Officer at STEMREGEN, where he developed the most potent natural stem cell supplement.
