INTRODUCTION
Cellod-S is a natural medicine. It inhibits blood cells disorders and promotes vigor. Cellod-S becomes invaluable in the treatment of sickle cell disorders, anemia, and other cell related illnesses.
SAFETY AND EFFICACY
Cellod-S is 100% natural product. It has been found to be very safe. Toxicity test On Cellod-S was conducted in 2005 by the renowned Toxicologist, University of Benin, Prof. E.K.I. Omogbai who concluded in his report that “The herbal preparation has been tested for both acute and chronic toxic effects at doses over two orders of magnitude greater than the calculated human dosage currently used and no abnormalities have been detected. The product therefore has shown a high degree of safety”. Again, the study on Cellod-S by eminent scholars of the Faculty of Pharmacy, College of Medicine, University of Lagos and published in J. Pharm, Sci & Pharm Vol.8 (3 & 4), July – December 2006, established that Cellod-S, like other similar herbal formulations does not require extensive principal investigations to establish efficacy and safety like new chemical entities (NCES). Quote: “It is our opinion that elaborate pre-clinical investigations required for NCEs are not necessary for those herbal formulations, most plant constituents of which are consumed as vegetables by the locals and have had decades or even centuries of ethno-medicinal applications without reported or observed incidence of toxicity”. It is worthy of note that before any herbal product is registered by National Agency For Food And Drug Administration And Control (NAFDAC), it is certified safe for human consumption but NAFDAC does not uphold claims of efficacy hence registered herbal products are compelled to carry the Disclaimer. “These claims have not been verified by NAFDAC”. Apart from the fact that the formulation, (Cellod-S) has been in use for generations upon generations, we have practical field experience of uninterrupted use of Cellod-S for twenty years with a track record of excellent efficacy.
Cellod-S effectively restores full health to the patients between weeks and some Months depending on the age of the patients and severity of the cases. Success rate for sickle cell is 99% of treated cases, a situation difficult to believe in the midst of the myth that sickle cell disorders have not yet got any effective remedy. The study by the eminent scholars of the college of medicine, UNILAG had this to Say “Cellod-S thus showed remarkable sickling prevention and sickling reversal activities”. They concluded: “The results of these pre-clinical evaluations indicate that Cellod-S has the acclaimed anti-sickling ethno-medicinal use and that haemolysis - a major mechanism-based toxicity of potential anti-sickling agents, and phenomenon most guided against in sickle cell sufferers – is not a problem with Cellod-S”. When combined with Procin-X, the therapy becomes an effective treatment for Prostate enlargement, chronic infections and fibroid.
HEALTH BENEFITS
When used on its own for Sickle Cell, Cellod-S has many benefits which include the following:-
1. ‘’It achieves Sickling reversal and Sickling prevention activities’’ (College of Medicine, UNILAG)
2. Cellod-S sustains a sickle cell patient even when the PCV of the patient is remarkably low and gradually builds up the PCV.
3. It dramatically reduces the occurrence of pains and crises to the barest minimum.
4. If still within growing age, Cellod-S promotes growth of stunted patients.
5. It helps to heal chronic ankle ulcers arising from sickle cell complications.
6. Pregnant patients are able to successfully carry their babies to full term.
B. When combined with Procin-X, the therapy is invaluable in the treatment of prostate enlargement, chronic infections and fibroid.
CLINICAL RESULTS.
Patients have been treated successfully for fourteen years before the product got registered With NAFDAC six years ago. During this period, the use of the products have been extended the use of this product to virtually the whole country- from Sapele to Warri, Asaba, Benin, Ado-Ekiti, Katsina, Abuja, Minna, Kaduna, Kano, Jos, Ilorin, Ibadan, Oyo, Ogbomoso, Lagos, Abeokuta, Onitsha, Enugu, Aba, Owerri, Uyo, Port Harcourt and others. The results of nationwide sales and use confirm the safety and efficacy of the product as no case of SIDE EFFECTS has been reported so far. they have been able to established a worldwide mail order business and an acclaimed marketing agent in the U.S. From these records, for sickle cell, more than 900,000 prescriptions of Cellod-S have been made within the period without any reported side effects to more than 1500 patients. While formal Clinical Trials are being arranged with The College of Medicine, University of Lagos and the National Hospital, Abuja, it is evident that the exercise may be just a formality as many more patients have taken the formulation and for much longer period than the formal clinical trial will cover.
CONCLUSION
Consultant specialists undertaking series of studies, analyses and tests to ensure the safety and efficacy of Cellod-S. The formulations has been in use for twenty years. During the period, the product had been developed from its crude form of fermented alcohol solutions to its present form of capsules in blisters. It has been no easy task to convince people of this amazing breakthrough in the management of sickle cell anaemia particularly the orthodox medical practitioners – doctors and pharmacists who constitute the main gateway to getting the unbelievable good news of Cellod-S to all the stake holders. From NAFDAC to Technical Studies and Practical Field Results. Cellod- S has been proved to be safe. What could be contested therefore is its efficacy. That is why when there is doubt, we give free samples for trials to doctors, pharmacists and others. The message is out loud and clear. There is the urgent need to co-operate with us to get Cellod-S to all that need it. It is a source of joy to us that a newly formed NGO for relief of sickle cell sufferers – The Sickle Cell Relief Association of Nigeria, has adopted Cellod- S as the medication for their program. So much will be achieved for the suffering millions of sickle cell disorders if you also adopt Cellod-S for your program.
