Muscle Building Stem Cells

Interesting research on muscle-building stem cells here.

I'd guess it won't be long before the supplement companies jump on this research and "claim" that their "scientists" have discovered a break-through stem-cell replenishing natural supplement. These supplements will be basic vitamins and won't effect anyone's stem cells. But they will sell to people desperate to build muscle.

Same thing that happened with the myostatin supplements.

Someday though, this will be a reality and won't just be used to treat the muscle-wasting diseases. It will be used by bodybuilders and athletes. What's coming down the road will make steroids look like kids-play.
