NK Cell or Natural Killer Cell is a type of white blood cell in the body’s immune system that is present since birth. It has a special ability to kill viruses and cancer cells.
In normal conditions, our body will find NK Cell only 2-3% of the total white blood cell count in the bloodstream and will gradually decrease due to increasing age, physical weakness, pollution, stress, lack of rest, drinking alcohol, smoking, including eating low-protein foods. Whenever the level of NK Cell in the body decreases or its efficiency decreases, the body will be easily attacked by germs or viruses and can develop into serious diseases such as cancer cells.
NK Cell Therapy is a medical innovation developed by separating NK Cells from normal white blood cells in our body to be cultured in an international standard laboratory until we get the most effective NK Cells before injecting them back into patients to stimulate and balance the body’s immune system.
In addition to the age that causes NK cells to work less efficiently, there are other factors that weaken NK cells or have a negative effect on the body’s immune system even at a young age, such as:
– Insufficient rest, irregular sleep, or less than 8 hours of sleep per day.
– There is accumulated stress, chronic stress, which weakens the body’s immune system.
– Eating unhealthy foods, such as foods high in fat and sugar, and not eating a balanced diet.
– Do not exercise. Exercise has the advantage of helping to stimulate the immune system to work better.
Before performing NK Cell Therapy, the NK Cell Activity Test must be performed by drawing just 1 cc of blood to measure the level of NK Cells function, measure the interferon gamma (ITF-Gamma) secreted from NK Cells, and evaluate the body’s ability to protect against viral infections and cancer. This is before separating NK Cells from the blood and culturing them to increase their numbers before transferring them back into the bloodstream to increase the efficiency of NK Cells in the body.
Although the NK Cell Activity Test cannot indicate the presence of a disease, it is useful in helping doctors diagnose and recommend further tests to find out if there are any health problems.
how does it work?
NK Cells Therapy involves sending blood to a laboratory to extract and separate NK Cells, which are then multiplied 1,500 times, while enhancing the efficiency of NK Cells to eliminate viruses and cancer cells more effectively.
After about 2-3 weeks, the NK cells that have been enhanced and increased to no less than 5 billion cells will become ready for use and will be returned to the cell owner for treatment through an intravenous route similar to general saline.
But whether the results of NK Cells Therapy will be good or not depends on the NK Cells culture method as well. It is important to make the cells ready to work or have sufficient efficiency.
Healthy Person
– Healthy people want to check their immune system function.
– To provide basic health information and information on cancer risk factors and to prevent cancer in the first place.
Or have abnormalities, have chronic diseases (Clinical Disorders)
– People who have a family history or relatives with cancer
– People with genetic disorders
– People who are undergoing cancer treatment or patients who have been cured but still need to be monitored for cancer recurrence.
– People who drink alcohol or smoke heavily.
– People who are constantly exposed to hormones or pollution.
– People who have high stress, accumulated stress, or chronic stress.
– People who get little rest and don’t exercise enough.
– People who do not get all 5 food groups, such as vegetarians, often do not get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals.
As mentioned earlier, NK cells are a type of white blood cell that is very good at killing cancer cells, but they are only effective against certain types of cancer, including preventing the spread or recurrence of certain types of cancer, such as melanoma.
– Research has found that NK Cells Therapy combined with current medical treatment in early-stage cancer patients has effective treatment results and does not have any negative effects on the body or treatment.
– In advanced cancer, NK cells help control the spread of cancer, allowing patients to spend more time with their families and avoid illnesses from drug or chemotherapy treatments and NK Cells Therapy is also used to treat patients with other types of cancer, such as colon cancer, stomach cancer, and prostate cancer.
For those who have NK Cell Activity at a lower than normal level (100-250), the low NK Cell activity may be caused by health conditions or a sign of an early stage disease. Therefore, you should improve and strengthen your own immunity. Even if you have NK Cell Activity at a normal level (250-500), you should not be complacent in maintaining this good condition. The doctor will diagnose the value along with an overall health examination to recommend alternative methods to increase immunity or provide appropriate treatment, such as taking medication or storing important immunity from the blood (Active NK Cells + lymphocytes) to immediately increase immunity or store it for future use when needed. The immunity cultivated from NK Cells can be stored for up to 5 years and can be used immediately whenever needed.
– After receiving cell therapy, you may feel drowsy or tired because the newly received NK cells will use the body’s energy to work.
– It is advisable to take dietary supplements or give intravenous vitamins that provide energy to cells.
– Strenuous activity or exercise should be avoided for at least 3 days after cell administration.
– You should get enough rest and avoid drinking alcohol and smoking.
