The video explains the body's natural process of tissue renewal following an injury. It describes how injured tissues release compounds that signal stem cells in the bone marrow to divide and enter the bloodstream. These stem cells are attracted to the injury site by SDF1, where they transform into tissue cells to aid in repair. Imrigen, a plant-based product, supports this process by increasing circulating stem cells, enhancing tissue repair capabilities.
